Several friends and family attended the service, including Scott's older brother, "Prometheus" director Ridley Scott, according to TMZ.
In addition to the private, family-only ceremony, the family said in a statement to Deadline that they will announce plans to celebrate his life and work with a greater audience after Labor Day.
The 68-year-old died on Aug. 19 after leaping from the Vincent Thomas Bridge into Los Angeles Harbor. An autopsy was performed on the British-born director's body last week, but it will be a month or more before an official cause of death is determined.
Coroner's officials are treating his death as a probable suicide.
