About our Sydney cremation services
Cremation is a deeply personal choice, often selected for its simplicity, flexibility, and the sense of peace it can bring. Many families appreciate that it allows them to celebrate their loved one’s life in a way that feels unique and respectful, with the freedom to hold a farewell in a place that truly matters to them. Idyllic Funerals are funeral directors in Sydney, and we approach every service with sensitivity and care, ensuring the wishes of both your loved one and your family are honoured.
We offer two types of cremation services to suit the needs of each family: a simple direct cremation, and cremation with a service. Whichever option feels right for you, we’ll be there to guide and support you through every step. Our team will help create a farewell that truly honours your loved one, with care given to every detail, from flowers and coffins to the perfect venue.
We respect all cultural and spiritual traditions and provide flexibility in how and where a service can take place. Whether you choose a chapel, place of worship, surf club, golf club, park, beach, or even your own home, we’ll help create a meaningful setting that reflects your loved one’s life and wishes.
Direct Sydney cremation services
Direct cremation provides a simple, no-service option with ashes returned to the family for a later memorial ceremony if they choose. These are respectful and affordable cremation services in Sydney, and offers families a dignified farewell.
Prices start from $2,750 (inc GST)
Cremation with service
A cremation with a service offers two options: the cremation follows the funeral service, or the cremation occurs first with a memorial service later. In both cases, the ashes are returned to the family after the cremation.
Prices start from $8,734 (inc GST)
About Matt
Hi, I’m Matt. After 20 years in the finance industry, I experienced the heartbreaking loss of a dear friend, and everything shifted. I realised I wanted to do work that truly mattered. That helped people. That honoured lives.
So I left the corporate world behind and became funeral director and celebrant in Sydney. These days, as an independent funeral director in Marrickville, I help families say goodbye with grace, warmth, and yes, a touch of lightness. I believe funerals don’t have to be gloomy to be meaningful. They can be uplifting, personal, even beautiful.
At Idyllic Funerals, your trusted Sydney funeral director, I blend practical know-how with heartfelt care, taking the stress off your shoulders while creating a service that genuinely reflects your loved one. If that sounds like what you’re after, let’s talk. I offer a free 15-minute planning consultation to help you get started.
