How We Work
How We Work
At Aerial Ashes, we offer a unique and respectful service for scattering cremated ashes. Whether you are honouring a loved one, a cherished pet, or even both, our team is here to ensure that every detail is managed with care, professionalism, and compassion. We guide you through each step of the process, making the experience seamless and meaningful.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to how we work
Step 1: Initial Consultation
When you first get in touch with us, we’ll arrange a consultation to understand your specific wishes. Whether you’re planning a tribute for a family member, a pet, or both, we’ll discuss:
- The type of service you’re interested in (Cremated Ashes, Interment Ashes, or Together Forever)
- The location where you wish to scatter the ashes
- Any special requests, such as live streaming, professional filming, or aerial photography
We offer guidance on location choices across the UK, helping you select a meaningful site that best honours your loved one.
Step 2: Location Selection and Permissions
Once we understand your preferences, we’ll help you select the ideal location for the ceremony. Whether it’s a tranquil beach, a peaceful countryside, or a specific landmark, we aim to scatter ashes in a place that holds sentimental value
- Location Suggestions: If you're unsure of where to choose, we’ll provide a list of recommended locations based on your loved one's favourite places.
- Obtaining Permissions: We take care of all the necessary permissions from landowners and authorities, ensuring that the scattering ceremony can take place without any complications.
Step 3: Customising the Ceremony
After finalising the location, we’ll personalise the ceremony based on your needs. This includes:
- Scheduling: Choosing a date and time that works best for you
- Live Streaming: We offer live streaming for family and friends who cannot be physically present, allowing them to participate in the ceremony from anywhere.
- Professional Videography: We can capture stunning footage of the event, providing a commemorative video that you can cherish forever.
- Aerial Photography: If requested, we offer aerial photographs to capture the moment from a unique perspective.
Step 4: The Ceremony
On the day of the ceremony, our team will ensure everything runs smoothly. Using our specially designed drones, we’ll carry out the scattering of the ashes with care and precision. We’ll provide:
- Drone Scattering:The ashes will be scattered from a drone in a controlled and dignified manner.
- Personal Attention:Our team will be on-site, ensuring everything is handled with respect and professionalism.
For families attending the ceremony, we’ll make sure the experience is peaceful and comforting. For those attending virtually, the live stream ensures they can share in the moment, no matter the distance.
Step 5: Post-Ceremony Options
Once the ceremony is completed, we offer the following post-ceremony options:
- Commemorative Video: If you’ve opted for video coverage, we’ll edit and share a beautiful, personalised video of the ceremony.
- Memorial Suggestions:We can help you create a lasting tribute at the location, such as a plaque or a tree planting, to ensure the memory of your loved one lives on.
Step 6: Ongoing Support
At Aerial Ashes, we don’t just stop at the ceremony. If you have any further questions or need additional support, we are here for you:
- Follow-up Communication:We stay in touch after the ceremony to ensure you are satisfied and to provide any additional information or support.
- Additional Services: We can offer additional services like a follow-up scattering, aerial photographs, or a memorial event.
