When a loved one passes away, many people turn to traditional funeral services to pay their respects and honor their memory. But funeral services can be expensive, with costs often exceeding $10,000. If you’re looking for a more affordable option, Dignified Cremations offers quality unattended cremations in the Greater Brisbane area starting at $1190 – which is perfect for the loved one who just wants something simple without the frills.
In this article, we’ll explain what an unattended cremation is and why it’s a cost-effective option. We’ll also discuss how Dignified Cremations is able to provide high-quality cremation services at such a low price.
What is an Unattended Cremation?
An unattended cremation, also known as a direct cremation, is a cremation that takes place without any loved ones in attendance. This means that the deceased is cremated and the cremated remains, or ashes, are typically passed to the next of kin or another designated person for safekeeping. The loved ones may then organise a farewell celebration or memorial gathering based on the deceased’s wishes
Unattended cremations are often chosen for a variety of reasons. Some people may prefer a more private farewell, while others may not want to deal with the stress and expense of planning a traditional funeral. Unattended cremations are also a popular choice for people who are not affiliated with a particular religious tradition and do not want a religious service.
