TYPES OF FUNERAL
Attended Direct cremation
A simple, unattended cremation with no service, carried out with the same care as any funeral we conduct — and the ashes returned to you.
If you’re considering a Direct Cremation but would like to attend a service, Butterfields offers the ideal solution. Our Attended Direct Cremation Package provides everything you need for a respectful and dignified farewell:
- Transfer of your loved one into our care
- Dedicated, compassionate care throughout
- A suitable coffin for the cremation
- A small, tasteful flower arrangement
- A professional civil celebrant to lead the service
- A private chapel service for up to 25 guests
- Transport to the crematorium
- All cremation fees included
- Live streaming of the funeral, if desired
- Visual tribute options, if requested
