How can you put a picture on a headstone?

Photoplaques are a great way to include a picture of your loved one on their headstone, giving you the chance to see their face every time you visit their place of rest. However, there are several ways that you can still include meaningful images on their headstone. For example, you could choose a portrait etching or a rose design.

Can I buy my memorial online?

Memorials of Distinction believe that purchasing a memorial headstone is such an important decision that it is not suited to an on-line ‘add to my basket’ type of purchase. There are also many variables in the process which will affect your order, for example what is allowed by your particular cemetery and whether your inscription will fit on the memorial you have chosen.

It is possible to order over the phone or by email using the details on our Contact Page where our staff will be able to help and advise you.

We also offer a home visit service within certain areas, which is completely free of charge and obligation. One of our knowledgeable staff will visit you in the comfort and privacy of your home to help you to choose a design, decide on an appropriate wording and answer any other questions you may have.

Any administration or correspondence with local authorities, cemeteries or church authorities is dealt with by Memorials of Distinction on your behalf – you will not have to worry about this aspect of the process.

How much is the cemetery fee?

Cemetery or Crematoria fees are not a standard price but if you tell us the grave location details we will be able to find out for you. Alternatively the cemetery would be able to give you the information directly if you prefer to call them yourself.

Once you have placed an order, the process of obtaining a permit is carried out by us on your behalf and is generally straightforward.
