Funeral teas, wakes, and memorial gatherings can be both moving and uplifting occasions, offering a chance to reflect, remember, and celebrate a loved one’s life.
At the Holiday Inn Ellesmere Port/Cheshire Oaks, our team has many years of experience in sympathetically supporting families during these difficult times. We are here to ensure that organising a funeral wake is handled with compassion and care, easing the burden at a moment when it matters most.
We understand the importance of these occasions and can assist with everything from catering and room setup to arranging musicians or any additional services you may require. On the day itself, our team will provide a discreet, thoughtful, and efficient service for you and your guests.
Upon arrival, one of our dedicated hosts will personally greet you, look after your guests, and serve refreshments. We will remain attentive and available whenever needed—or provide privacy and space should you prefer a quieter atmosphere. Our aim is to ensure that the day runs smoothly, allowing you to spend meaningful time with family and friends.
We are conveniently located close to several local crematoriums and cemeteries:
