💬 'I suppose that direct cremation is a 'click and collect funeral'' For some, a funeral is a grand affair But an increasing number of mourners are turning to the most basic cremation – one without a ceremony – to cut costs
People who choose a direct cremation, he says, are concentrating more on organising a special get-together afterwards, or celebrating the life that has been lost in an interesting way.

“As we got talking, it was apparent that a direct cremation was right for them,” she explains. Costs wasn’t an issue at all, but it was what was right for the family at the time. So we looked at other ways of celebrating our friend’s life.” Lorraine adds that she thinks some might prefer for their money to be passed on to their children rather than spent on a funeral.
Even famous people are no stranger to them – David Bowie famously opted for a direct cremation because he wanted to “go without any fuss”, before his ashes were scattered in Bali, Indonesia. There are some concerns that people may feel like they have to choose a direct cremation in order to spare family members the “cost or distress” of a traditional family service, says Deborah Smith of the National Association of Funeral Directors.
