Casket Ownership Program
Choose the Casket Now. Then Decide How Fully You Want to Protect Your Family.
The Casket Ownership Program™ helps families start with one important decision: choosing the casket ahead of time. From there, our team can also help you understand whether a more complete funeral protection plan may be the better option for your family.
Start with the casket. Understand the full picture.
This page is designed for families who are interested in choosing a casket ahead of time, while also opening the door to a more complete funeral planning conversation.
What the casket option covers
- A way to choose a Jordan River casket ahead of time.
- A documented casket selection and family instruction record.
- A planning tool for families who already have funeral arrangements but still need the casket decision covered.
- A starting point for families who want to explore funeral protection one step at a time.
What it does not include by itself
- Funeral home service charges.
- Cemetery property or cemetery fees.
- Flowers, transportation, clergy, embalming, or memorial service expenses.
- A complete funeral service package unless the family chooses to review broader planning options.
Why many families choose to review the complete plan.
Choosing the casket is important, but it is only one part of the funeral. During your consultation, we can help you compare the casket-only path with a more complete funeral protection option.
Start With Interest
You choose or ask about a meaningful handcrafted casket that reflects faith, heritage, and family wishes.
Review Your Situation
We ask whether you already have funeral arrangements, cemetery plans, or existing coverage.
Compare Options
We explain the difference between casket-only planning and broader funeral protection options.
Choose the Right Path
Your family can move forward with the casket alone or review a more complete plan.
A meaningful casket can open the door to a stronger plan.
Many families first think about the casket because it feels personal, visible, and meaningful. That is a natural place to begin.
But once the family understands the casket decision, the next question is usually bigger: “What about the rest of the funeral?” That is where a full planning conversation can help.
- Clarifies the casket your family should know about.
- Helps identify whether funeral services are already covered.
- Creates a natural path into full funeral protection.
- Gives families a clearer plan before the moment of need.
Best for families who want to start with the casket decision.
Some families only need the casket because they already have other arrangements. Others start here and then realize a complete funeral protection plan may be better.
Good fit for casket-only planning
- Families who already have funeral arrangements in place.
- Families who want a specific Guadalupe, Christ, Saint Jude, or traditional design.
- Parents wanting to leave clear instructions for adult children.
- People who want to avoid rushed casket decisions later.
Better fit for full planning
- Families who do not yet have funeral services arranged.
- Families concerned about future funeral costs.
- People who want to reduce financial pressure on loved ones.
- Families who want the casket and service details reviewed together.
Questions about choosing a casket ahead of time.
Is this a complete funeral plan?
No. The casket option by itself focuses on selecting and documenting the casket. It does not include funeral home services, cemetery costs, flowers, transportation, clergy, embalming, or other funeral expenses.
Can this be reviewed together with a broader funeral protection option?
Yes. During a consultation, we can review whether the casket-only path or a more complete insurance-backed funeral protection option makes more sense for your family.
Who is the casket-only option best for?
It may fit families who already have funeral arrangements in place and only need to select or document the casket. Families without complete arrangements may benefit from reviewing a broader plan.
Can my family still use any funeral home?
Yes. Families have the right to provide their own casket to the funeral home.
Can I choose a religious design?
Yes. Jordan River Caskets offers Guadalupe, Saint Jude, Christ, cross, Last Supper, and traditional designs.
