Below are some of the individuals and families who may benefit from a unique ash scattering:
1. Families Seeking a Personalized and Peaceful Farewell
For families looking to honor their loved one in a way that reflects their spirit, personality, or passions, destination ash scattering offers a deeply personal tribute. Whether your loved one cherished a special place—like a favorite national park, beach, or wilderness location—or you simply want to create a serene and beautiful farewell, our service allows you to scatter ashes in one of many stunning locations across the country. We help make the logistics easy, so you can focus on the meaningful act of remembrance.
2. Those Who Have Recently Suffered a Loss
Losing a loved one is one of the hardest experiences anyone can go through, and it can be difficult to know where to start when it comes to planning their final farewell. Our unaccompanied ash scattering service offers a simple, stress-free option for families who are grieving and may not have the time, energy, or resources to arrange an elaborate ceremony. We take care of all the details—obtaining permits, handling ashes, selecting the perfect location, and conducting the scattering ceremony—so you don’t have to worry about anything during this difficult time.
3. Families Who Have Cherished Ashes for Years
For families who have held onto cremated remains for years, unable to decide on a final resting place, our service offers a peaceful and respectful way to fulfill the wishes of your loved one. Whether you’re looking to scatter ashes in a specific place that held meaning for your family, or you want to honor their memory in a scenic, natural setting, our team provides a simple and dignified solution. We can help bring closure by ensuring that your loved one’s remains are scattered in a place that celebrates their life and legacy.
4. People with Mobility or Time Constraints
Traveling to a specific location to scatter ashes can be challenging for those with mobility issues, family members scattered across different locations, or other logistical concerns. Our service is perfect for individuals who may have difficulty organizing or traveling for an in-person scattering. With BONAVENTURE, you don’t have to worry about coordinating transportation, handling ashes, or dealing with local regulations. We take care of everything, allowing you to focus on the emotional and spiritual aspects of the ceremony.
5. Those Looking for an Affordable and Eco-Friendly Option
Destination ash scattering can be an affordable and environmentally conscious way to honor your loved one. In comparison to traditional burial, which can be expensive due to the cost of plots, caskets, and gravestones, ash scattering eliminates many of these costs. Additionally, scattering ashes in nature—whether in a national park, a beautiful beach, or a mountaintop—aligns with the growing desire for green and eco-friendly funeral options. According to the National Funeral Directors Association (NFDA), 68% of families are now interested in “green” funeral options because of their environmental benefits and cost savings.
6. Families Seeking an Alternative to Traditional Burial
More and more families are choosing cremation and non-traditional memorial services instead of traditional burial. As the trend toward cremation continues to grow (with nearly 60% of Americans opting for cremation), destination ash scattering offers a beautiful and meaningful alternative to the traditional cemetery burial.
7. Those Looking to Create a Lasting Legacy
Some families choose destination ash scattering as a way to create a lasting memorial for their loved ones. In choosing a significant location—whether it's a majestic national park or a tranquil ocean setting—they are creating a tribute that will endure for years to come. This option allows families to leave a legacy that reflects the individual’s love for nature, adventure, or specific places that held a special meaning in their life. It also offers a comforting way to visit the location as time passes, creating an enduring connection to the memory of the person.
8. Families Seeking a Stress-Free Experience
We understand that planning any memorial service, especially in the wake of a loss, can be overwhelming. Our service is designed to reduce stress and allow families to focus on what matters most—honoring their loved one. From obtaining necessary permits and following local regulations to securely handling and scattering the ashes, BONAVENTURE takes care of all the details, ensuring that your experience is seamless, respectful, and meaningful.
9. Those Who Want to Connect with Nature
For many families, the idea of returning a loved one’s ashes to nature is a comforting and symbolic way to celebrate their life. Whether it’s by scattering ashes at a serene lake, on a beautiful mountain, or over the ocean, these settings offer a peaceful connection to the natural world that can bring healing and closure. If your loved one had a deep love for nature, outdoor adventures, or cherished particular landscapes, destination ash scattering can be a deeply moving way to honor their memory.
