A peaceful time for family & friends, together in remembrance
At Houghtons we recognize that every family path is unique and each farewell should reflect the personal wishes of those who hold their loved one dear.
Our Intimate Cremation Service provides a comforting opportunity for a close circle of family and friends to gather at Walton Lea Crematorium, walk alongside their
loved one and share a beautifully structured service led by a compassionate professional.
A gentle, heartfelt opportunity for family and friends to stand together.
The service welcomes a maximum of 40 people and provides 30 minutes inside the chapel, allowing a peaceful window of time for everyone to enter, sit
comfortably, reflect deeply, and gently exit into the floral tribute area.

A
peaceful space to remember
The Intimate Cremation Service is carefully shaped for families who desire a deeply meaningful, fully led service without the scale or length of a large, traditional
funeral.
It provides those closest to your loved one with the perfect setting to attend, listen to comforting words, and say a peaceful, private goodbye.
Because this is a completely fixed-cost option, there are no hidden extras. The only separate elements you might wish to consider are personal flowers, keepsakes, or any
gatherings you choose to host after the service.
Maximum attendance: 40 people
Service Time: 9:20am or
9:30am
Service length: 30 minutes
Price: £1,895
