Cremation is a choice many families make in Sydney’s Eastern and Southern Suburbs. Understanding the process and options helps make the decision easier. Andrew Kennedy Funerals provides clear guidance for families exploring cremation.
Families may choose a full funeral service followed by cremation. Others choose direct cremation without a ceremony, then hold a memorial later. Each choice has benefits. We explain what happens, timing, costs and emotional implications.
Cremation funerals can still be deeply meaningful. Families may include readings, music, photo displays, flowers or symbolic items. Ashes may be placed in urns, memorial walls or scattered in meaningful locations. We help families understand local regulations and options.
Cremation often presents a lower base cost than traditional burial. However, costs depend on service style, urn selection and memorial choices. We provide clear breakdowns and explain how to compare packages.
Sydney funerals may take place in local chapels, churches or crematorium venues. Andrew Kennedy Funerals assists with location, booking and logistics. We manage transport, timings and coordination so families can attend peacefully.
After cremation families need to decide about ashes. Options include keeping them at home, sharing among family, placing in memorial gardens or scattering. We guide families through these choices and local requirements.
Our support remains after the service. Families may need help writing thank-you notes, planning memorial events or accessing grief resources. Andrew Kennedy Funerals remains available for ongoing care.
