A prepaid cremation covers the cremation itself. A broader prepaid funeral plan may also include an attended service, celebrant or clergy, venue, audiovisual requirements and other agreed elements. Willed Funerals offers prepaid cremation, leaving the family free to arrange an optional funeral or memorial service when the time comes.

Here at Willed Funerals, we solely do prepaid cremation and the difference being that a prepaid cremation is just that. It's just the cremation portion that we're taking care of. A prepaid funeral plan is the entire funeral. So that would include things like your celebrant or clergy, the venue, any AV that's required and all of those components. So at Willed Funerals, we can offer a prepaid cremation at a competitive price that we can help you with at the time of your loved one's passing. It's a little bit more involved to set up and we'll go through obviously venue, location, civil celebrant, minister, and all of that with your next of kin at the time of your passing.
