When my husband passed away I had no hesitation in choosing Doves to organize his funeral. Doves had organized both my parents funerals years ago. From the first meeting with Kayleigh at the Knightrider Street office a weight was lifted from my shoulders. She explained the options I had so the funeral would be what my family and I wanted for Martin. From the lovely celebrant Sue, local fresh flowers, a personal printed order of service. Everything was arranged by Doves just as we wanted it. The drivers of the hearse and cars were so kind and helpful. The staff at Doves are so kind and friendly, but also very professional.

Very professional service, Kayleigh went above and beyond. She was very helpful with helping myself and my son in planning my wife's funeral, nothing was to much for her! I can't thank her and the whole team at Doves, would highly recommend.

The team at Doves did a fantastic job of arranging my father-in-laws funeral. Kayleigh looked after us before the day and made sure everything was organised. Chris was excellent on the day and made sure everything went well and how we wanted it. Many thanks.

The staff at Doves were kind, compassionate and efficient. We wanted a very simple, low key funeral and our wishes were fully respected. Special thanks to Kayleigh and Chris, who made things easier to bear given the difficulty of losing a loved one.

From the very first call just after my mum died, Doves were compassionate, kind and helpful. They were informative about the next steps, and picked up mum within hours. Then, throughout the planning and delivery of my mum's funeral, Kayleigh was very professional, well organised and reassuring, accommodating of all our family's wishes.On the day our funeral director Chris was the perfect lead, making sure we had his full support and taking care of every detail. He did this with warmth and empathy, and nothing he did ever felt intrusive. He wore a green tie and pocket square for mum too.There's no doubt Doves made a very difficult and distressing time much more bearable for our family. We can't thank you all enough. Highly recommend.

I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to Chris, Kayleigh and the team for making my dad’s funeral personal to him Chris even wore blue and Chelsea badge for his team even though a spurs fan. They went above and beyond supporting myself and family. We as a family have always used Doves knight Ryder street for our family. All though it’s at our saddest times I have always felt like they really have looked after all of us.Kayleigh also recommended Dianne my dads humanist and she was amazing at truly capturing my dads personality.Thank you so much for your empathy and kindness in making my dad’s funeral be perfect x

We chose Doves Maidstone over several other funeral directors as the initial contact with Kayleigh gave us great confidence and nothing was too much trouble.Kayleigh was very sympathetic, understanding, helpful and thoroughly professional at every step in the planning of my mother’s funeral.Chris the funeral director was very respectful and oversaw every detail on the day in a non-intrusive way, right down to wearing a tie in my mother’s favourite colour.Doves made a very difficult day easier. The personal service from start to finish was outstanding. We would wholeheartedly recommend them.

From the moment my wife and I walked through the door we were treated with courtesy and helpfulness. Kayleigh was excellent at guiding us through the process, giving advice and answering our questions, sometimes answering questions that we hadn't thought of. Nothing was too much trouble and throughout we were kept well informed. Everything from day one went like clockwork. We have no hesitation in recommending Doves and awarding them 5 stars for service. Well Done to all concerned.
