Companion Upright Headstones in NJ

Companion upright headstones are a beautiful way to celebrate the bond between two people who want to be remembered together. At Da Vinci Gravestones & Monuments, we specialize in creating elegant, meaningful companion headstones for families in New Jersey. With over 80 years of experience, we take pride in crafting timeless tributes that honor shared lives and memories.

What are Companion Upright Headstones?

A companion upright headstone is a tall, vertical grave marker designed for two individuals—usually spouses or close family members. Instead of two separate headstones, this shared monument brings their memories together in one meaningful tribute.

Companion headstones are larger than single markers, providing plenty of space for personalized details. These headstones symbolize love, unity, and a shared journey, standing as a lasting reminder of the bond between loved ones.

Why Pick a Companion Upright Headstone?

A companion headstone is a beautiful way to represent the connection between two people. It’s not only a touching tribute but also a practical choice. Instead of buying two separate headstones, a companion marker offers a single, cost-effective solution.

Another great benefit is how versatile the design can be. Whether you want shared quotes, individual names, or artistic carvings, there’s plenty of room to personalize the headstone to reflect both lives.

Materials We Use for Companion Headstones

We believe that memorials should be as strong as they are beautiful. That’s why we use the finest materials to create companion headstones that last for generations.

Granite is the most popular choice because it’s incredibly durable, available in many colors, and stands up to all kinds of weather. Options like black, gray, blue, and red make it easy to find a look you’ll love.

We can also include bronze accents—like plaques or inlays—to add a polished, sophisticated look to the headstone. Combining bronze with granite makes for a truly stunning design.

Making Your Companion Headstone Unique

Personalizing a headstone is what makes it truly special. We work closely with you to include details that celebrate the lives and memories of your loved ones.

For shared details, you might choose a meaningful quote, poem, or message that reflects their bond. On each side of the headstone, we can add individual names, birth and passing dates, and unique epitaphs that tell their personal stories.

We also offer artistic touches, like religious symbols, floral carvings, nature-inspired designs, or even etched portraits that add a personal and heartfelt touch. To complete the look, you can pick from a variety of granite colors and finishes that reflect your style.

How We Design and Install a Companion or Double Upright Headstone

We begin with a friendly consultation to learn about your vision, budget, and preferences. Our designers will sketch out the headstone, incorporating all the elements you want to see. You’ll have a chance to review and approve the design before we get to work.

Once the design is finalized, our talented artisans use traditional techniques and modern tools to carefully craft the headstone with precision and care. When it’s ready, we’ll handle the professional installation, ensuring it’s placed securely and follows all cemetery rules.
