Helping You Grieve 

It’s easy to see why approximately 70% of Australians prefer cremation to burial. Many people believe that by reducing the body to ashes it can be better released into the universe. Alternatively, the ashes can be preserved and treasured in a place of honour at home. At Artisan Funerals, we can arrange all facets of the cremation service—catering to clients on the Gold Coast, Tweed Heads and beyond.


After the tailored funeral service has taken place at a church, chapel or other venue of your choosing, we can arrange for the coffin to be taken to the crematorium. The entire cremation process should take approximately 24 hours. We will then provide you with the ashes in an urn or your preferred vessel, so that they can be retained, scattered or prepared for a memorial service. 


We appreciate that cremation is an extremely emotional process. You can count on all of us at Artisan Funerals to provide gentle and comprehensive support. Call us today on 0434 267 744 to find out more about our cremation service. We can be reached 24/7.

Frequently Asked Questions 

  • How do we know the right ashes are being returned to us?

    Crematoriums operate under very strict guidelines. Only one coffin can fit in the cremator at any time, and all cremated remains are cleared before the cremator is used again.

    The label or nameplate and paperwork follows the coffin, and then the ashes through every step of the process until they are placed in a container and labelled again ready to be returned to the family. Artisan Funerals also has its own strict quality assurance procedures in place to make sure this process runs smoothly.

  • Why have I never heard of Artisan Funerals before?

    Artisan funerals was only established in 2017 as a local family-run business, so it’s reasonably new. We don’t have the massive marketing budgets of the big corporate players, so we can’t afford the large billboard signs and TV spots. With decades of experience working for other funeral homes, the founder of Artisan Funerals, Karen Lucas, decided to go out on her own due to changes she saw happening in the industry. More specifically, the profit driven/cost focus ‘corporate greed’ culture that came as a result of overseas and local entities acquiring long-held privately run funeral homes saw many experienced funeral directors become disillusioned with what they were seeing. At Artisan funerals, we combine everything that is good about the old with the best of everything new.

  • Why should I consider cremation over burial?

    There are a number of reasons why you might choose cremation over burial. Cremation is usually less expensive than burial, and it can be more convenient because it doesn't require a funeral or burial plot. Cremation also offers more flexibility when it comes to memorialisation and scattering of ashes. If you're considering cremation, be sure to discuss your options with us.
