During the pandemic cremation-only arrangements in Brisbane have been a favourable alternative for many.
Opting for a cremation-only – also known as a direct cremation, cremation only no service and non-attended cremation – can remove the stress of planning a traditional funeral directly after a person has died.
A direct cremation is typically a more affordable option compared to other funeral arrangements. Plus, it gives the family more time to plan a personalised farewell or memorial which can be held at a special location where the deceased wanted their ashes scattered, or on a later date when more friends and family can attend.
In this blog we give an insight into what to expect when you choose a cremation-only for you or your loved one with Anton Brown Funerals in Brisbane.
