          Funeral ceremonies can either be elaborate or simple, but they are always dignified and elegant. In this business venture that can be started, the horse-drawn hearses can result to being very popular. The cost of hiring a horse-drawn hearse will be $1,000 to $ 1,700 with a team of four and six horses. There will also be two liveried outriders. The horses that will be available can be of two colors, either white or black.

        Paging away services will also be available where the director of funeral leads the cortege on foot as the horse-drawn hearse follows as the cortege passes a particular place of meaning to the deceased before arriving at the crematorium or cemetery. Traditionally just like a new business venture, the horse-drawn hearse will involve a page to stop other coaches present and also as a sign of respect to the coffin and mourners.

        Horse-drawn hearse is a new innovation that was applied in the 19th Century for transportation of the deceased to their final resting place. In the business idea, the horse-drawn hearse will have a logo pay respect and will also be symbolic of the firm’s effort in providing the family of the deceased high standards of funeral services. The target customers, for example, in the United States are those that prefer the classic cemetery burial as it is still very popular. The venture will offer different options and marketing channels for burial to ease the process to the deceased family. Other services that can be incorporated include paying tribute through memorials and markers that will have a personal tribute to a loved one.  The memorial will be traditionally crafted and engraved mad out of either stones or granite.

 

'Joe Tetz Horse Drawn Hearse' for Funeral Service

    The firm was started in 1990, by Joe and Barb Tetz when they were restoring carriages. During the same year, they purchased two Friesian horses from Holland. In 1995, they unearthed two skeletal remains and from buttons on their jackets they found that they belonged to the Revolutionary War Soldier. Joe and Barb were honored and asked to rebury the men. They organized a unique affair where local dignitaries and Pentagon Color Guard took place in the ceremony. In the streets, there were many spectators, and this marked the beginning of Joe and Barbs Horse Drawn Funeral Service.

      Since then, Joe and barb have built customized Hearses that are the finest. In 1996, Joe’s sister started a carriage collection, and they added it to their workshop. Currently, they have a museum with many accessories and antique collections on their display. They also have a coach that was built in 1850, the Concord Coach and a custom hearse made for the Heintzelman Funeral Home in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania. Joe and Barbs Horse Drawn Funeral Service hearse is pulled by two Friesian horses while the Pall Biers is pulled by a Perceron. They have a few horses where they can select where all are meant  to provide recognition to those honored.

      This new venture is a partnership hence each one will have their share of the investment. We will deliver standard and care services coupled with green and eco-friendly arrangements that will be integral in our services. All the requests will be tailored to the person that died (Willis, 1993).
