⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the bottom of our hearts, our family would like to say a huge thank you to the entire team at **Bare Funerals**. During one of the most difficult times in our lives, the care, compassion and professionalism shown to us was truly extraordinary. From the very first phone call through to the memorial service itself, everything was handled with such kindness, dignity and respect. Losing a loved one is overwhelming, and there are so many decisions and emotions to navigate. The team made what could have been a very stressful process feel calm, supported and manageable every step of the way. A very special thank you to **Amanda** and **Kelly**. Both of you were absolutely incredible. Your compassion, patience and genuine care meant so much to our family. You always took the time to explain everything clearly, answer every question we had, and reassure us that everything would be taken care of. Nothing ever felt rushed or transactional — it always felt personal and heartfelt. One thing that meant so much to me personally was the way you handled my dad and kept me updated throughout the entire process. At such a sensitive time, knowing he was being looked after with dignity and respect brought a huge sense of comfort. Those updates, the communication, and the transparency helped us feel connected and reassured during a very emotional period. I would also like to thank the wonderful team who looked after us on the day of the memorial. Every person involved was so respectful, professional and caring. They ensured everything ran smoothly and supported our family with such warmth and understanding. It allowed us to focus on remembering and honouring Dad without worrying about any of the logistics. The service itself was handled beautifully and with such grace. Every detail felt thoughtful and respectful, and it gave our family the space to celebrate Dad’s life in a meaningful way. What stood out most throughout this entire experience was the genuine compassion shown by everyone at Bare Funerals. It is clear that this is not just a job for you — you truly care about the families you support and the people you are helping honour. During such a heartbreaking time, having a team that shows such humanity, kindness and professionalism makes an enormous difference. Our family will always be grateful for the way you cared for Dad and supported us from beginning to end. Thank you to Amanda, Kelly, and the entire Bare Funerals team for everything you did for our family. We will never forget the care and dignity you showed during this time. We would absolutely recommend Bare Funerals to anyone who is looking for compassionate, respectful and truly outstanding service.

The people at Bare were amazing. They did everything for me I didn't have to go out to see people when I was confused, angry and sad at looseing my Husband. Everything was done either by phone or email, my son only had to go and pick up his ashes and bring him home to me. They sent me the web site so that people that could not be there could watch. You get to do everything from home.They have venue's if you wish to have a wake after the service at a reasonable price.

There was nothing I could fault with Bare who assisted in the funeral and memorial service for my Mum. Communication was constant, open and helpful. I have already passed on my recommendation to people who enquired as to who we used. The pricing was also very competitive. Highly recommend.

We recently lost our Mother very suddenly. My brother contacted Bare and we can not speak highly enough of their care and support. They took all the stress out of a highly emotional time. We dealt with Jake for the planning, Mae handled all the memorial booklets and helped provide a beautiful slideshow and on the day Rachel was just fantastic. Affordable and provided a lovely send off for our beautiful Mum. Thankyou.

I had an exceptional experience with the Bare team - guiding and supporting me every single step of the way, during what has been the most difficult time of my life. From my initial first call, I was guided and supported every step of the way. They clearly explained the process - I would have 3 points of contact - my Organiser, the celebrant, & a Graphic specialist handling the creative etc. And what an incredible team. Thankfully all reached out often & gently & respectfully reminded me of the time deadlines. If they hadn’t, I honestly would not have done it. I could not bring myself to do any of the very important tasks required. Our celebrant was a very caring and deeply compassionate person who helped me immensely with planning mum’s memorial. She took the time to get to understand the amazing person mum was, & just knew what she would say about mum would be perfect… and it was. I was really struggling with writing me eulogy. I just couldn’t exactly articulate what I wanted to say. She kindly offered to read my version, & helped make it more concise yet conveyed the same message. It was perfect. On the day, she was so gentle, professional, & incorporated mum’s spiritual side in perfectly. At the end, many of the guests also commented just how beautifully she spoke, and her words were so comforting to all of us there on the day. Then the incredible graphic specialist. So talented creatively, but also so patient, empathetic and supportive, as she lead me through each step. The final version is just so perfectly depicting our beautiful mum, as was the photos montage and music. I still look at them often now. I will treasure this always. Our Bare coordinator who handled everything on the day, gently guided and supported myself, and the entire family throughout the morning. Carefully coordinating everything so it all ran seamlessly, and it did. So professional and yet so thoughtful. I must admit I was a bit concerned initially at the thought that there wasn’t a physical ‘office’ as such… but it was irrelevant I quickly realised, due to the care I was receiving, regardless of the person’s location. In fact, it felt far more relaxed, and far less ‘cookie cutter’, which I liked. The Dashboard & the technology associated with it, are very impressive. It was my go-to most days… often multiple times per day. To keep me on track with tasks & prompts from my ‘To Do’ list. I loved that I could monitor RSVP’s, & the photos and memories tabs are also things I hope I can continue to look back on. I am grateful to the founders of Bare for business model they have created, the exceptional team they have employed, and for allowing us to tailor memorials to honour our loved ones, all at a competitive cost. Mum’s memorial, whilst so sad as it was finally ‘real’, was such an incredibly beautiful tribute to remember our beloved mum. All of our guests commented just how perfectly it reflected mum, and the entire memorial was perfect. I could not have done so without the Bare team supporting me throughout the entire process, thank you.

BARE were very understanding and supportive throughout the process of planning my husbands cremation and memorial service. I was consulted on everything and they guided me through the whole process enabling me to choose flowers, booklets, music, venue, photos etc The resulting memorial service was entirely appropriate in capturing my husbands life story and enabled the family to express their feelings and snapshots of his life. The celebrant recommended by BARE was excellent and visited me at home before the ceremony, as were the BARE staff at the ceremony. The whole process was largely done by phone calls and emails which was my preference and there were no problems along the way. I found BARE to be an economical decision as well as providing an excellent result and recommend them to others.

I was so happy with Bare. The whole process of organising my husband's cremation and memorial was very streamlined. Everyone was lovely to deal with and I loved how I was kept up to date with everything with either emails or phone calls. I had so many comments on how lovely my husband's service was and I couldn't have done it without the help of the wonderful staff. I thoroughly recommend Bare for any funeral arrangements you need.

My experience saying goodbye to my Dad with Bare Funerals and Cremations was exceptional. From the very beginning, every member of the Bare team I spoke with was compassionate, understanding, helpful and incredibly efficient. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for Dad’s Memorial Service. The whole process felt supportive, personal and was tailored to the way we wanted to celebrate his life. Their website was also an invaluable tool, full of clear and relevant information, with each step laid out on a simple timeline. It was always updated so I knew exactly where we were in the process and the checklist for next steps (like managing the estate) was a huge help at such a difficult time, especially if it is your first time having to do this kind of thing. The pricing is very reasonable, with flexible package options to suit different needs and budgets. Dad’s Memorial Service itself was so special. It was heartfelt, unique and filled with beautiful energy. Everyone who attended said it was the most meaningful service they’d ever been to. It’s exactly the kind of farewell I’d want for myself one day. Bare have truly transformed this industry, making a sad and difficult time easier, less stressful and so much more personal. They think of everything and ensure you feel supported every step of the way. I cannot recommend Bare Funerals and Cremations highly enough. Choosing them for my Dad was the best decision and I’ll be forever grateful.

Bare organized everything from the Cremation, picking up of ashes, Memorial service, booking the venue,Video presentation with photo's, food and decanting of the ashes.

My sister recently,y died suddenly and tragically. I’m so grateful we found Bare Cremation Everything was so perfectly streamlined, efficient, simple, and affordable. We were able to provide a lovely memorial for my sister, which we may not have been able to do without Bare Cremations. There was no heavy selling or attempts to upsell, as advertised. The customer service was exemplary including the initial contact, our appointed manager, administration staff and the person who delivered back my sister‘s ashes. This was particularly helpful at such a traumatic time. Communication was excellent and we were kept up-to-date at every step of the process. The Online platform was great. Very easy to use, and contained really useful checklist and hyperlinks to various administrator actions which was incredibly helpful. I would certainly recommend Bare Cremations would definitely use their services again.

I was so glad I choose Bare as the staff were very compassionate, caring and responded to our sometimes late requests to change the slideshow, the sequence and choice of music. We felt supported thrrough the stages and not pressure for information. As you know its a very emotional time one both my daughter and I hadn't personally experienced. When the final day came for the memorial the chapell was ideal and Libby and Browyn guided us through the hour with sensitivity and compasion. Thank you to everyone involved including Michelle, Azia, Libby, Bronwyn and staff behind the scene. I would highly recommend Bare to anyone who is in need of funeral services. A BIG thank you!

Recently the Bare Team came to my rescue in organizing my father’s Memorial Service. I was panicking about organizing this service, and was dissatisfied with the help I received when I organized my mother’s funeral a few years earlier. During a search on the Internet, I came across the Bare site and decided to try them after reading their glowing reviews. I though that if they were half as good as the reviews, I’d be happy. As it turned out, they were many times better. The Service was very special for our family and all those who attended. Their process was comprehensive and easy to follow. Everyone I dealt with was fantastic: from my main contact person, to the AV producer, to the celebrant, to the organization of the Livestream, to the representatives who arrived on the day with their expertise to handle any last-minute hitches and provide a very welcoming environment. It was a perfect final Tribute to my father. I can’t thank the Bare Team enough. I am so grateful for the support they gave me.

I can not say enough about the wonderful service I got from everyone I spoke to at Bare. Right from my initial enquiries before my mother had even passed I knew that I was in good hands. All the details were mapped out for me so that when my mother did pass, I felt ready and confident of the process despite my grief. They made preparing the Memorial Service so easy for me and conducted it so beautifully. I am so grateful to them and do not hesitate in highly recommending them.

I can't speak highly enough of BARE Funerals & my Funeral Arranger Lydia, including other staff members... for their professional manner & caring support to make all my requests & plans of action happen so quickly, a week before Christmas, 9 days of losing my husband. Losing him so quickly was heartbreaking, but then planning his cremation & memorial in such a short period before Christmas, was so overwhelming. Lydia was just amazing; organising this to happen🙏 from the cremation so promptly, to helping with arrangements to pick urn up, then after his Memorial & Wake, all criteria required with staff regarding the certificate. I give this amazing & compassionate group of people at BARE ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it made my Christmas a little easier!🙏 Kind Regards Glenda

We had heard about Bare Cremation on the radio, and when we suddenly needed these services, their name came to mind. They quickly moved from being on our short list, to being clearly the best match for our needs. We are happy to confirm that Bare Cremations provided us with exactly the services and assistance that we needed to hold a fitting memorial service to celebrate our brother's life, including arranging a fitting venue, perfect slideshow and a fabulous celebrant (thanks, Michael). Yes, the cremation also happened and all government processes were taken care of by the company - everything went very smoothly. All in all, we can highly recommend this company.

The people at Bare Cremation are in my opinion the "best of the best" in the funeral / cremation business. I am so very glad that we chose Bare to handle the cremation and celebration of life service for my father Ian. Every person I dealt with when making all the necessary arrangements was wonderful and very reassuring to deal with. At no time did I feel under any pressure throughout my entire dealings with Bare. They kept me well informed on all of the necessary processes, helped me choose the right venue for all of our family members and produced the highest quality Order of Service booklet that I have seen at a funeral service. The celebrant that conducted Dad's service did a brilliant job that helped us greatly to participate in the celebration of Dad's life story. I highly recommend Bare to anyone in need of their services.
