£1,500 + disbursements
We serve families in West / SW London to NE Surrey
The No Fuss Attended Simple Cremation service has been created by White Rose Modern Funerals for families that feel a Direct Cremation is too remote, but they do not require a full funeral either.
A simple cremation service is typically attended by immediate family (average 2 – 12 people) and is held before 10am – crematorium fees significantly less early morning.
What happens at a No Fuss Attended Simple Cremation?
A simple cremation service is family led – typically no minister or celebrant – and is just quiet time in the crematorium chapel, where a choice of music can be played and any mementos or photos displayed.
Some families sit and talk, others read out personal tributes, others just sit quietly and listen to music. It is your time, your choice.
The coffin will be placed in-situ in the chapel ready for your arrival, typically families bring their own flowers and place on the coffin when they arrive.
Comforting mugs of tea
We are there, with flasks of hot water to make you a comforting cup of tea, before we then leave you with your own quiet reflection time. Families always tell us how much they appreciate this.
Typically you will have 20 minutes, some families require less and that is fine, you just tell us what you want.
Spending efficiently does not lessen the meaning
Our No Fuss Attended Simple Cremation is a cost efficient way to say a personal goodbye without any frills. Families that have made this choice have appreciated the intimacy without having a large group of mourners.

Our fresh approach to pricing will give you transparency– and help to minimise unnecessary costs.

Our family could not have asked for a better interpretation of our description of a service which my husband had wanted. We are left with memories of a calm and peaceful day. Sheila S
