If you’d like to get your own final services in order, there are plenty of things you can do with the Dallas funeral home you have chosen to hold onto the plans. Whether you want a funeral or cremation service, you might already know that you’d like for people to celebrate your life instead of mourn your death. As you think through planning that process, here are some questions you might ask the funeral home, and yourself.

How Would I Like People To Celebrate Me?

This is more of a question for yourself. You will want to think about some of the things that are special about you and what makes you stand out. What do you enjoy and what would you appreciate your family doing in your honor? If you adore music, maybe just a meal with dance would be enough. If bowling is your one true talent, ask your family to grab some lanes and play a game for you. Since you are planning ahead of time, you can take your time thinking about how you want to be celebrated.

What Options Are There?

This is a huge question to ask a funeral home because the options really are endless. But by asking, you can figure out some of the things that people have done in the past and whether or not any of those things are right for you. The funeral home will have rooms available in case you feel it would be easiest for your family to have the celebration there. The rooms are great and are a wonderful place to hold a celebratory funeral during which your family members would share stories and memories about you. Once the funeral home gets to know you, they can also offer suggestions that might work for your personality and your family.

What Budgets Are Good?

Life celebrations can take on any budget you want them to and the funeral home will tell you as much. If you have ideas in mind, they can give you ideas as to what those things will cost. If you want to do something that costs less, they can give you ideas and options that might suit that budget. You might be looking for budget ideas because you aren’t sure how much you want to spend and they can certainly give you ideas for reasonable amounts. But the budget can vary greatly depending on what you want to do.
