Memorials

Across the UK, Unattended Cremations (sometimes referred to as Pure, Direct or Simple Cremations) are becoming an increasingly popular option. Despite their rise in popularity the need and desire to ‘pay our respects’ to those we’ve lost still remains.

Prodigal Ceremonies are committed to creating opportunities to ‘say goodbye’, to ‘celebrate a life well lived’ or simply ‘honour the moment’ in whatever way your loved one wished or in the way you would like.

We offer to be by your side and to journey with you as you hold all that’s needed. We’re happy to answer any questions you have and support you as you work out what’s right for you and your loved one.

Some simple steps forward include:

-Inform your Funeral Director of your wish for an Unattended Cremation (They will advise on timings and details for collection of ashes)

-Choose the venue for your ceremony and check availability

-Create the ceremony with us (We will discuss the wording as well as options for a visual tribute, order of service and the music you would like)

-Invite your guests and hold the moment with as many or as few people as you would like

We will conduct the ceremony, creating a special occasion for you to remember and one that honours your loved one.
