There are many types of affordable cremation services available. We would like to take a few moments of your time to introduce some of the various options that are available.

• Direct Affordable Cremation: When a loved one leaves us, family who prefer not to have any type of memorial gathering or service should contact funeral personnel for the transportation of the decedent, then you can request a direct cremation to follow. The staff at Funeral & Cremation Emporium will be able to advise you of all necessary administrative and legal requirements in order for cremation to take place. State laws typically require some type of waiting period before the affordable cremation can occur. Although direct cremation is an option, many people later regret this decision because it surpasses closure for family and friends that are left behind. You can still plan affordable cremation services for your loved one by having a small formal or informal gathering and inviting supportive friends and family to celebrate the life that has been lived. This small meeting will allow family and friends to begin the healing process.
  
  
• Funeral Service with an Affordable Cremation to follow: Probably one of the biggest misunderstandings about cremation is that it does not allow you to have a funeral. This conception could be further from the truth. As a general rule, most people opting for an affordable cremation prefer to have some type of formal memorial service with cremation to follow. This type of service selected is still much more cost effective than a traditional burial. The funeral is usually conducted at a church or funeral home but can be held at any appropriate location. The funeral can be informal or formal and include clergy or it simply can involve family and friends who share feelings and memories. To personalize the ceremony the family can play the decedent’s favorite musical selection and decorate the facility with portraits and photographs of loving moments to remember. A visitation may also be held to allow family and friends to give a final farewell prior to the affordable cremation taking place. If you decide to plan a visitation one may rent or purchase a cremation casket. If you decide to use a rental casket then an alternative container will be used during the cremation process.
  
  
• Affordable cremation followed by a memorial service: This memorial service is a gathering where family and friends will reminisce with or without the cremated remains present. If the family opts to have the cremated remains present then a decorative cremation urn may be displayed at the location. This type of service can be formal or informal.

Funeral & Cremation Emporium will assist you in planning any of these types of affordable cremation services. The funeral staff is a valuable resource in arranging all of these important details and they can offer suggestions to personalize the ceremony that may be otherwise overlooked. Following the affordable cremation there is a difficult decision as to the final disposition of the cremated remains. One may opt to bury, place inside of a niche or scatter in a garden at a cemetery. The site will provide a permanent place to visit your loved one. The affordable cremation cost will allow the family to focus on purchasing an everlasting permanent memorial such as a cemetery marker, monument or bench in remembrance of the one they love without the financial distress of a traditional burial. Scattering of the cremated remains at sea or on land can represent your loved one with an important place that was loved by them that family and friends can visit. Scattering is regulated by state law and Funeral & Cremation Emporium will coordinate and advise you of any local ordinances prohibiting scattering. After the affordable cremation takes place the cremated remains can be placed in a scattering urn which is especially designed to hold the cremains until scattering takes place and then to be kept as a memento afterwards. One may decide to have one or several small portions of the cremated remains placed inside of a cremation urn or keepsake jewelry to keep as a permanent memorial of the decedent and can have the remaining portion scattered at a favorite place.

Planning an affordable cremation will allow family to focus on planning a memorable memorial for their loved one instead of placing a strenuous financial burden upon them while they are overcome with grief.
