There are two parts to a funeral: the burial or cremation* and the service or ceremony. Traditionally the two have taken place together, but there is no requirement for this.

For example, a Direct Funeral involves a discreet, unattended burial or cremation, followed by a memorial service/ interment or scattering of ashes at a later date.

​

*There are other end of life choices that are less well known and it is important to make an informed choice. For the environmentally conscious, a Natural Burial may be the preferred option. Soon to be available, Resomation, or Water Cremation, is also a more environmentally friendly alternative to flame cremation.
