Should I pre-plan my final wishes?

The thought of pre-planning cremation or burial can be challenging for some families. How do you plan the perfect service? Even if the thought of pre-planning is difficult, it's essential for those who have a tough time making decisions. When you pre-plan ahead of time, it allows everyone to focus on the grieving process instead of stressing out over the details.

What about cremation or burial?

There are pros and cons to choosing cremation over a traditional burial. One of the biggest benefits of cremation is that it’s typically more cost-effective than burial. Another benefit is that you can scatter ashes in a special area like the park or a beach or kept them nearby at home. Cremated remains can fit in almost any room in your home without taking up too much space.

On the other hand, traditional burial comes with its own set of benefits. First, you can visit the gravesite whenever you'd like. The next generation of children can also come to the gravesite, so it creates a special place for everyone to visit at their own discretion. Whether you choose cremation or burial in the Altamonte Springs area, Baldwin Brothers can help. Let us help you pre-plan a service that your loved one deserves and give you peace of mind for years to come.

Urn and casket options

In general, most families choose urns to hold cremated remains. Urns come in many shapes and sizes, from simple square metal urns to more decorative marble or ceramic designs. Baldwin Brothers can provide urns and caskets in different shapes, sizes, and materials according to your needs, tastes, and budget.

Planning a special memorial

Many families wonder if they can have a memorial service before or after cremation. The answer is either!  If you've chosen cremation, you can hold a special memorial service to honor the memory of the deceased. This also allows friends and family to say goodbye and pay their final respects before the body or ashes are taken to a final resting place.

Memorial services can be personalized to fit each family's needs, whether it's held at home or in a public venue. Music, readings, and food are all part of the service. It's a time to celebrate the life of your loved one and share stories about them with other people who also knew them. If you're unsure how to plan a fitting memorial, allow the trained staff at Baldwin Brothers to help.
