Funeral Wake Venues Plymouth
The team at Future Inn Plymouth care and understand that the loss of a loved one is a difficult time for relatives and friends. The post-funeral gathering provides an important opportunity to celebrate life and bring much-needed comfort and support. We offer a sensitive, sympathetic and professional approach to organising a celebration of life reception.
Once you have said goodbye to your loved one; at the service, funeral home, funeral directors, burial or cremation, it’s time to have a funeral wake. Friends and family can gather for bereavement support at our venue in Plymouth, Devon.
