We are open to all of your suggestions around design. We aim to create a meaningful tribute for every person who comes to us, and we will always do our best to execute your vision.
Get in touch with the friendly and compassionate team at Sanctuary Memorials to chat through your ideas, or for inspiration, take a look at a few of our service options listed below.
Work with us to create a fully customised design. A wonderful way to reflect the personality and spirit of your loved one.
Choose a Memorial Plaque or Recumbent Headstone and add artwork, photographs and other unique features.
The Sanctuary Memorials team can add a photograph of your choice to your monument. This is a great way to help future generations connect with their ancestry.
Plan ahead for the future with our unique double-width headstones, select a fitting tribute and create a lasting memorial.
At Sanctuary Memorials, our Taranki team always lead with respect and compassion. We understand the challenges that can crop up at this time, and we are here to support you in any way we can.
Contact us today for an initial consultation about your vision for a memorial tribute for someone dear to you.
Our professional team collaborate with you as you navigate the design process, and we can guide you as you select the right photographs, artwork and personal inscriptions.
Following our initial conversations, our graphic artist will craft an image. Once you are confident that we have grasped your idea, our experienced stonemasons will work to create your monument; this process takes around 6-8 weeks.
During this time, your photographs, artwork, inscriptions and any other features you have ordered will be proofed so that when our stonemasons have completed your monument, it can quickly be sent to our local installation expert.
Creating a tribute to honour someone who has passed can be challenging and emotional. At Sanctuary Memorials, our Taranaki team are here to help you capture the essence of your loved one in a way that feels simple and meaningful.
We can help you create a customised monument with personalised inscriptions, photographs and artwork that will come together to form a unique tribute, and we’re here to support you throughout the entire journey of designing and crafting your monument.
Our initial chat can take place at one of our Auckland locations, or we can arrange virtual meetings or phone consultations – whichever is most convenient for you.
Our Taranaki installation expert will work with you to ensure the monument is placed at the burial site in time for your unveiling.
Sanctuary Memorials offers ongoing service, including adding further inscriptions, and if you need maintenance or repairs, just get back in touch with your Taranaki installer.
We know that cultural traditions often need to be observed when your headstone is being installed and reinscribed. At Sanctuary Memorials, we work with councils, caretakers, and families to ensure respect for traditions, regulations and boundaries are built into our processes.
While we understand it may not always be possible, we always aim to ensure that your loved one’s monument won’t need to be removed from the Cemetery or Urupā when it comes time to add further inscriptions.
