A Horse Drawn Hearse has a stately elegance that no other funeral vehicle can quite match. We can provide black or white Hearse and Horses with a variety of plumes and drapes to personalise your cortege, giving a real sense of occasion to the funeral. The most popular choice is two black horses with a black carriage giving a sense of gravitas proceeding before the funeral cortege. Should you wish to have a horse drawn funeral then it is traditional for children and infants to have white horses and a white carriage and all staff wearing formal white gloves.
Please don’t hesitate to give us a call if you have any questions regarding Horse Drawn vehicles.
A team of majestic black horses, adorned in plumes and full regalia, leads a black hearse through the streets, drawing admiration and reverence from both traffic and pedestrians along the route. The presence of these horses brings a calming effect, encouraging people to connect, share stories, and engage. This gentle experience is particularly meaningful for children, who are often invited to approach and pet the horses. Our skilled coachmen and dedicated teams provide a seamless, dignified service, ensuring the journey is handled with the utmost respect and grace.
Our white hearse and horse team offers a graceful and elegant farewell, embodying beauty and peace. The serene presence of the white horses and carriage conveys a powerful sense of calm and dignity, lending a unique reverence to the funeral procession. As the cortege moves by, people pause in quiet respect, creating a moment of reflection. Whether you choose black or white horses, all our teams are highly trained, welcoming to children, and bring a deeply memorable quality to every funeral, honoring your loved one with profound respect.
