Liam Payne has finally been laid to rest. One month after the former One Direction singer passed away in Argentina, his family and close friends gathered to say their goodbyes.

Taking place on Wednesday, November 20th in the Home Counties (the counties of England that surround London), the emotional and intimate service took place at St. Mary's Church in Amersham, according to TMZ. Payne was brought to the church in a horse-drawn carriage with flower arrangements that said "Son" and "Daddy."

Liam's family, including his parents Geoff and Karen, were in attendance as they watched their son's coffin be carried into the church. All four of Payne's One Direction bandmates also came to honor Liam, including Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik. The guys arrived separately, dressed in black as they headed into the emotional day.
