If you wish to host a gathering, we offer full-service catering options designed to take the burden of hospitality off your family. From intimate tea and coffee service to a full spread of traditional favorites, we ensure your guests are looked after with warmth and care.
At Hibiscus Funerals, we believe that the time spent sharing a meal or a cup of tea after a service is an essential part of the healing process. It provides family and friends with a relaxed space to reconnect, share stories, and support one another in a more informal setting.
Whether you are planning a large gathering at a local venue or an intimate reception in our family lounge, we offer a range of catering options designed to suit your preferences, culture, and budget.
Dedicated Staff: Professional hosts to serve food and ensure beverages remain topped up.
Venue Setup: We handle all the linens, crockery, and glassware.
Flexible Locations: We can provide catering at our own onsite facilities, at your family home, or at a local community hall or church.
“We want to be here for you during those difficult hours, taking the pressure off your shoulders by providing a warm, welcoming space where your family can simply be together..”
Tracey Brown | Funeral Director
We provide high-quality, fresh, and locally sourced food. Our menus are designed to be “finger-food” style to allow guests to move freely and talk, though more substantial options are available upon request.
Traditional Afternoon Tea
Gourmet Club Sandwiches: A variety of fresh fillings including vegetarian options.
Warm Savouries: Petite mince pies, sausage rolls, and quiches.
Sweet Treats: A selection of home-style slices, mini cakes, and scones with jam and cream.
Beverages: Freshly brewed coffee, a selection of teas, and chilled fruit juices.
Contemporary Platters & Grazing Tables
For a more modern or casual feel, we offer beautifully presented platters:
Antipasto & Cheese: Selection of New Zealand cheeses, cured meats, crackers, and dips.
Seasonal Fruit: A refreshing selection of sliced seasonal fruits.
Dietary-Specific Platters: Dedicated Gluten-Free, Vegan, or Dairy-Free selections to ensure all your guests are looked after.
Custom Menus & Special Requests
Every life is unique, and sometimes the food should reflect that. If your loved one had a favourite treat – perhaps a specific type of cake or a cultural dish – please let us know. We will do our best to incorporate these special touches into the menu.
Our transparent processes and affordable packages relieve the stress of funeral service costs, so you can have peace of mind that there will be no hidden surprises.
