Which Memorial is right for me?

A very common question among customers is how to choose the ‘right’ memorial? The simple answer to this is there is no right or wrong headstone design- ultimately the choice will come down to your budget, needs, tastes, and possibly cemetery regulations. Below are some important questions worth thinking about.

What is my budget?

How much do you want to spend on a memorial? The prices for headstones and gravestones can vary quite considerably, depending on the quality of granite and style. Generally speaking, most monuments fall within a price range of $2,000-$15,000. A good idea when initially speaking to a monumental mason is to let them know what your price range is. That way they can automatically show you what range of memorials fall within your budget.

Single or Double Monument?

This will depend on your circumstance. If the gravestone is for your partner and you are going to be buried next to them, the best option would be a double monument- as it would be cheaper than purchasing two single monuments.

Not sure about the style

A lot of families place a great deal of importance on the style or design of a memorial, and therefore find the process of choosing difficult. After all, they want the monument to best reflect the memory their loved-one.

A good starting point is by going to your nearest cemetery and taking note of the various styles and designs that you like. Alternatively, you can view our online galleries of headstones, single monuments, and double monuments.
