Next, we prepare drawings for your approval, allowing you to transform the image in your head into an accurate visual representation of the memorial. You can then make any necessary changes before the work is completed in stone.

Purchasing a Monument Pre-Need
More and more people are choosing to purchase monuments and memorials pre-need. By planning ahead, you can guarantee the style, color, and size that you want. Additionally, it provides you with more time to personalize the marker and discuss it with your loved ones. Organizing a personalized design ahead of time allows you to reflect your values and beliefs forever. Pre-planning can also save you and your loved ones money. Buying a monument in advance means that your family won’t be burdened with extra financial commitments and difficult decisions.

Choosing a Monument
- There is a wide range of memorial and monument types, including flat, beveled, and slanted grave markers, as well as crosses, statues, flower vases, and more. When deciding between your options, first learn about what your cemetery permits.
- Material and Color: Most monuments are made from granite due to its reasonable price, durability, and color variety.
- Granite is available in gray, black, red, pink, brown, green, and blue. Marble, on the other hand, is only available in white and gray. Bronze is also frequently used for flat markers and embellishments.
- All materials come in varying levels of quality, with some not being suitable for use in cemetery memorials. For example, some marble and granite can’t accept certain styles of design work and lettering. At B&B Monuments, our professionals can help you navigate the entire process and make the right decisions. We invite you to come check out your options in person, as pictures and brochures don’t accurately depict the textures and colors of these beautiful natural materials.
Monument Styles
Upright Monuments – Available in a wide range of shapes, styles, and sizes, allowing you to make a personal and creative statement.
Slant & Bevel Markers – Between the height of flat markers and upright monuments. Available in either single or double sizes that may be personalized with inscriptions and symbols.
Flat Markers – May be personalized; however, the design is restricted by the smaller surface area. They’re also difficult to locate in cemeteries, which makes them ideally suited for large family-style monuments with multiple interments.
