The Omega Society offers additional options for those who choose to personalize their services in a special way or select from a variety of special upgrades.

For those wanting to witness the scattering of remains at sea, Omega offers a personalized burial at sea ceremony aboard a private yacht, White Light. This meaningful and beautiful ceremony at sea provides families with an opportunity to privately memorialize the life of their loved one while providing closure in a serene yet stunning setting. Docked in Newport Harbor, the boat is a completely renovated and elegantly appointed 67' Chris Craft yacht. Priced according to the number of passengers, each charter lasts approximately two hours. Our captain will provide beverages, music, and a flower for each guest, perform a simple, meaningful ceremony, disperse the remains, and circle the site before heading back to the harbor. There is no additional charge for weekend charters, and we offer this service to families where the cremation was performed elsewhere as well. Without exception, families call to share with us their overwhelming satisfaction with their experience.

The Omega Society can arrange a location for a private memorial service, with or without the remains present, where family and friends can gather to commemorate the life of their loved one. Omega also has contacts for ministers, musicians, and florists.

The release of white doves at the conclusion of a funeral or memorial service on land or at sea is yet another opportunity to provide a distinct, personal touch to a service. Reasonably priced according to the number requested, doves add a symbolic and poignant final tribute to the life of a loved one, and provide a special feeling of peace and serenity at the conclusion of a service.

For years, traditional funeral homes have held families hostage in the purchase of caskets. As a cornerstone profit center in funeral service, funeral homes have battled to prevent the outside purchase of caskets. The law has since stepped in to prohibit any funeral home from preventing a family from purchasing a casket elsewhere, allowing families to price shop intelligently. In our quest to assist families in keeping costs down, The Omega Society offers a complete line of high quality, name-brand caskets at the most affordable prices anywhere -- even less than the discount stores. Our price-competitive caskets are available to both families using our services and those using the services of another funeral home.

In keeping with our core philosophy of offering a complete line of high quality products and services without the high price, The Omega Society offers a full selection of beautiful cremation urns, customized granite and bronze headstones, high quality burial vaults and a full selection of abundant floral arrangements, all at exceptionally affordable prices.
