At Simply Beautiful Funerals, we understand that not every family wants to have a funeral service. Sometimes a private goodbye might be the wish of your loved one, to save your family the cost and emotional upset of having to plan and sit through a funeral service. You may be thinking of having a no service (or private) cremation, and conducting a memorial service at a later stage.
This option is becoming more common, as people look to save money on the cost of a funeral service. It enables you to celebrate the life of this person who was so precious to you in life, without the cost involved with planning an elaborate funeral. You can conduct the memorial service in any venue that was special to your loved one, or that is special to your family. This may include their own home, or in a reception venue, or a local parkland. You have the option to choose whatever is most fitting for your loved one.
You may also choose to have the ashes of your loved one present at the memorial service, we stock beautiful cremation urns that we can inter the ashes into, so that you can continue to keep your loved one close for many years to come.
Simply Beautiful Funerals offers a no service cremation package for $1995 that allows your loved one to be farewelled with the dignity and respect that we all deserve, at a time when it matters. Our package includes the cremation fee, transfer of your loved one into our care (after hours transfers incur an additional fee), the coffin, silk flowers, death certificate and cremation authorisation. Which is all you need if you choose a no service cremation package.
