Simple cremation at Inspired is $650 plus the $157 Utah State cremation permit, so $807 before certified copies of the death certificate.

A traditional funeral is $1,895, or $2,195 with a two-hour visitation and embalming. A graveside service is $1,795, or $1,995 with visitation. A traditional funeral followed by cremation is $2,195. Cemetery fees, casket and vault are separate, and every price is on our pricing page.
