Wondering whether we will be able to do our loved ones justice is common source of anxiety at a time when we suddenly need to plan a funeral for them. It may help you to know that a Direct Cremation is a simple, and brief type of ceremony that is becoming increasingly popular in the UK. It tends to be favoured by those would not want to make a fuss or to cause others to go out of their way on their behalf. Typically, it's unattended, but we can organise for you to be there with friends and family if you think it would be best. If you'd like us to organise one in Sheffield, we can do so easily: We would bring your loved one to the crematorium for their ceremony, and then following that, we can either scatter their ashes for you at the local garden of peace, or we can directly hand-deliver them to you at home, as you prefer. This ceremony gives your loved one the chance to be commemorated on their terms, with all of the dignity of tradition, but none of the fuss.
The last thing that we would want to do is downplay or minimise the expense of a funeral, as we know that suddenly needing to organise one can provoke feelings of stress and worry. We hope that it makes things just a little more bearable to know that this kind of ceremony is often a good deal less expensive than other kinds of funeral. In fact, for an Aura funeral, you could pay less than half of what you would pay for the average British funeral. We are able plan this kind of ceremony from £1,095, but if you would like to talk to us over the phone, and let us know a bit more about what you'd like to arrange, we can give you a direct quote.
Making a ceremony as much about our loved ones as possible could be both what they would have wanted as well as something that we need, too. We see every funeral we arrange as unique and special, and we would be honoured to help your loved one's spirit to shine throughout. There are many ways in which we can help with this: For example, many people like to make sure that their loved one has a coffin whose design follows their interests, whether in terms of its colours, material or adornments. Others are keen to attend the ceremony in person with friends and family; even though it is usually unattended, we can easily arrange this for you. If there is anything at all we can do to make the day more meaningful and personal for your loved one, you have only to ask. We are ready and waiting to receive your call.
If you decide that a more bespoke funeral arrangement would be best, we are able to have everything set within a fortnight; however, other selections could need a bit more time. We know how important staying informed is, which is why we pledge to keep you updated at every step. Our commitment is to provide you with a swift service that doesn't compromise on quality. Nonetheless, you might find it helpful to bear in mind that the time needed to organise different types of funerals can vary. We invite you to call us with your preferences for your loved one's farewell, and we will then be able to offer more precise details about a timeline.
