Simply Beautiful Funerals conducts all types of funeral services across Melbourne. If you are wishing to have a cremation service, burial service, repatriation or exhumation, then we can assist you.
Cremations are generally cheaper than a burial, simply because you need to purchase the grave, and then pay for the interment (digging) fee.
A cremation may be chosen due to religious or cultural beliefs, or it may become the only option available to families who have very limited finances to pay for a funeral service, and a burial service is out of their price range.
Families may choose cremation if their loved one has expressed a wish to be scattered in a treasured location, or to be buried in their garden under a rose bush. Others wish to be returned home to their family in an urn.
A cheap cremation service can range from having a private unattended cremation, where there is no funeral service for the bereaved family members or friends to attend, right up to a church or chapel service where guests are invited to attend a funeral service to pay tribute.
When cheap cremations is what you are looking for, you might like to think about whether you would prefer to have the coffin present at the service. If you chose to have a funeral service without the coffin present, this would be called a memorial service, which can be held in any location, from the family home, to a park or even on the beach. The funeral director does not need to be present, and your family can organise this. The funeral director will arrange the cremation, coffin, death certificate and all required paperwork, including the collection of the ashes.
If you would like the option of having the ashes present at the memorial service, then we can organise this for you, Melbourne’s cheapest funerals can arrange all types of funeral services.
