Reasons To Opt For Funeral Pre-Planning

Reasons Why You Should Pre Plan Your Funeral

If, at the moment, you are young and in the pink of health, it may seem strange to you to even consider the prospect of funeral pre-planning. However, irrespective of your age, there are many benefits of pre-planning a funeral, as elucidated below:

• Reduces Stress For Your Family Members and Loved Ones: In the unfortunate event of demise within one’s family, the sheer grief makes it nearly impossible to perform even small tasks. In the midst of such a chaotic situation, organizing a funeral can prove to be very stressful for your family members. Furthermore, given that funeral ceremonies tend to take place within days of the demise, making arrangements for the same while handling the financial obligations pertaining to the funeral can prove to be a daunting task. By pre-planning funeral arrangements, you will save your family members the trouble of making arrangements during such a tumultuous period and enable them to focus more on coping with the loss.
• Will Help Avoid Conflict Among Family Members: If you, unfortunately, pass away suddenly, without any clearly defined final wishes pertaining to your funeral arrangements, members of your family will be left scrambling to find the best way to pay tribute to your memory. In the midst of it all, with emotions running high, this can lead to conflict between family members. Every decision pertaining to the funeral arrangements that you make in advance – be it the choice of music, food, and even burial style – can help avoid infighting among family members.
• Ensuring Your Final Wishes Are Met: In most cases, people do envision what they would want their funeral ceremony to include. Based on what holds the most value to you, be it a cremation or a burial, a lively celebration of your life or a somber event, this is where the importance of pre-planning a funeral comes into place. By doing so, you can ensure that your own personal touches are added to the ceremony. 
• Saving Money: In the midst of all the grief, your family members and loved ones may not be in the best position to haggle for the best price or even seek discounts and may just pay what is asked of them. In such a situation, they may often end up spending unnecessarily. By opting for funeral pre-planning, you can avoid this by taking the time to adequately research and compare funeral homes, casket prices, and other related services. This also includes pre-planning the purchase of headstones, flower arrangements, and even food items for the service.
• Prepare Financially: Even if you are looking for a simple funeral ceremony, you would be surprised to note that it can prove to be an expensive affair. Even if you opt for a very basic ceremony, with a small service after that, it can cost you thousands of dollars. One of the main benefits of pre-planning a funeral is that you can factor in the total funeral cost of all arrangements and plan out your expenses accordingly. Once you have done so, you can either opt for a funeral insurance policy or park your funds in a bank account payable-upon-death. 
• Will Enable Meaningful Conversations With Your Family Members: While you may be hesitant to broach the topic of your death and the following arrangements with your family, it can often lead to meaningful conversations about an individual’s needs and what matters to them the most. Often, broaching this topic with members of your family will also lead them to share their thoughts on the same, as well as their final wishes.
