Advanced planning for burial arrangements can help ensure that the wishes of a deceased person are honored, and their family members are not left with difficult decisions. Advanced planning typically involves discussing preferences with family members and selecting details like funeral services, desired casket or urn, preferred cemetery or crematory, and any other desired memorials, such as an engraved headstone.
It is also important to consider additional costs associated with funeral services, such as flowers, catering, transportation, and other fees. Similarly, it is important to consider the religious or cultural beliefs of those involved with the burial when making decisions about how the burial should be conducted. Some religions prefer that services only be held in their churches, while others prefer that the mortuary’s facilities be used.
