Choosing cremation gives you more options, not less
Many people mistakenly believe that cremation limits their options. In reality, choosing cremation actually gives you more flexibility and options. You can choose to have a memorial service where the body is not present, or a celebration of life either before or after the cremation process. This gives you more flexibility to plan the perfect tribute for your loved one at the time and place of your choice. You also have more options for final disposition. You can select in-ground burial, place the urn in a mausoleum, or keep the urn in your possession. People often choose to scatter their loved one’s ashes somewhere meaningful to them. If you’re scattering ashes over water, it can be best to use a biodegradable urn that can be dropped in the water and will slowly dissolve over time.
