Can You Attend A Direct Funeral?

The nature of a direct funeral, whether it’s a direct cremation or direct burial, typically does not include a formal service or ceremony where attendees can be present. The focus of a direct funeral is on simplicity and privacy, with the body being taken directly to the crematorium or burial site once all legal documentation and registration has taken place. 

However, we at Respect Direct Funeral Services understand the importance of a personal touch and closure. While traditional attendance at the time of cremation or burial is not part of the direct funeral process, we encourage families to consider organising a memorial service or gathering at a later date. 

This allows loved ones to come together to celebrate the life and memory of the deceased in a more personal and intimate setting.

However being fully approved and recognised Funeral Directors we also offer a full range of attended funerals to suit your budget from witnessed, affordable to traditional funerals for both burial and cremation.
