Tranquil and serene, the grounds are a lovely place to sit and contemplate the person who has died, their life, and those special memories you shared.

Memorial Options

One of the many reasons to choose Vale Royal Crematorium is the vast array of memorial options. Every funeral reflects the uniqueness of the person who has died, which can also be the case for their memorial. Whether the family prefers something small, natural and straightforward or large and elaborate, there is undoubtedly a suitable memorial option available at Vale Royal. Below we will look at some available options; you can view the full range and get more information on their website.

Cremation Memorials

Vale Royal Crematorium has thoughtfully crafted the range of cremation memorials available to ensure the most comprehensive choice possible. Memorials have been split into three categories to help narrow down the selection based on individual preferences.

  1. Living memorials
  2. Contemporary memorials
  3. Traditional memorials

Suited to the person who wants a simpler memorial, particularly for those with a passion for sustainability and the natural environment, living memorials include trees dedicated to your loved one, communal flower beds, and family gardens. A contemporary memorial can be large or small and includes beautiful granite benches, bird baths and sundials or a more non-the-less but straightforward personal dedication plaque. Traditional memorials comprise cremation tablets, above-ground vaults where you may keep the ashes or mini graves with a headstone or a gorgeous garden memorial.

Personal Memorial and Jewellery

Recently, it has become popular to memorialise a person who has died by creating bespoke jewellery with the stone made using the ashes following their cremation. Working with one of the leading designers of such jewellery in the UK, Ashes into Glass, Vale Royal Crematorium, can help guide you through the process of ordering such an item. Whether you would prefer 9ct gold, white gold or sterling silver, you can choose the metal and the stone colour that can be blue, red, green, purple, black or no colour. Several different rings are available, pendants, cufflinks, and a charm that will fit popular bracelet brands such as Pandora or even a memorial paperweight.
