Scattering of Ashes
The scattering of the ashes Ceremony can be carried out many different ways such as simply scattering the ashes upon the ground in a favourite location.
You can scatter near trees and flowers and then gently rake them into the ground.
The ashes could be sprinkled into prepared soil, or an eco-friendly urn purchased and placed in the soil where a bush or tree could be planted in their honour.
​
Scattering the ashes by hand or pouring them from an urn is a bit cumbersome, but now the Funeral Director has scatter tubes in different sizes and the tubes do make scattering the ashes so much easier.
​
You can also scatter the ashes on the edge of water or from a boat. A soluble urn can also be purchased which dissolves in the water and the ashes will naturally scatter.
You may decide to scatter the ashes from a mountain top, an air balloon a plane or now from a drone.
​
Your loved one may have preferred a simple cremation without the service, then a ceremony at a graveside where they wished their ashes to be buried in a grave beside a loved one.
​
As you can see there are many different methods of scattering ashes, some more common than others. Giving you an example of the different methods that you can choose from I hope helps you to plan the ceremony that is right for you.
