Why Print Funeral Order of services
At a funeral, there are certain things that happen in a certain order. We read a poem, then we say some words about the person who died, and then we have a time for people to share their memories of the person. We might have some Hymns and prayers After that, we play music and people can go up and say goodbye to the person who died. And finally, we close the service with another poem or some words about the deceased. Order Of service for funerals helps outline all this, so guests can follow along, it's also a great keepsake as it often has photos and some information about the person that has passed on and can be kept forever everyone at the funeral will receive a funeral order of services when they arrive to pay their respects and say goodbye
How to create a funeral order of service
Funeral Order Of Service Examples
Select a template or design:
When choosing a template or design for a order of service at a funeral, it's crucial to pick something that captures the character and taste of the deceased. This could be a favourite colour, a specific theme or design, or even a favourite quote or saying.
It is also important to consider the tone and mood of the funeral service and select a design that reflects this. For example, if the service will be more formal, a classic or traditional design may be appropriate. If the service is going to be more casual, a more modern or colourful design could be chosen.
Finally, the design should be chosen with the goal of creating a meaningful and memorable tribute to the deceased person while remaining respectful of the occasion. We provide a free online design tool and a variety of templates and designs to choose from, making it easier to find the one that is right for you.

For your convenience, we have created a sample funeral order of service:
- The front cover
- Schedules for the day
- Individual touches
- Last page/ Farewell
The front cover:
The front cover of a funeral order of service does not require much, and it should be direct with the necessary information. They are as follows:
- The deceased person’s complete name (You could also include their nickname, if it was used a lot).
- Their photograph
- Their birthday and their passing day.
- A phrase or a quote in their honour. For example, departed but never forgotten: beloved father and a husband.
- The funeral service’s date, time, and place
Schedules for the day:
An outline of the day’s events is provided on the first few inside pages of the funeral order of service. This lets the attendees know what to anticipate. These pages will often include:
- Name of the entrance song or music as the casket/ coffin is brought in and the guests assemble, the entrance music plays.
- Greetings from the person leading the service
- Name or lyrics of the songs and hymns played during the serviced.
- The name of the family member or friend who is reading any book excerpts, poetry, or scripture during the service
- Committal and blessings.
- Name or lyrics of the closing music/ song.
However, the schedule is not fixed and can be changed, it also depends on the venue is run. So, double-check your schedule with the funeral director and the person leading the ceremony to ensure everything is in order.
Individual touches:
If you’d like, you may utilize a few pages to provide mourners a bit more background information about the deceased. Here are some funeral order of service suggestions:
- An outline of their life’s events, including their wedding, graduation, the birth of their first grandchild, and other significant dates
- Quotes from the authors, poets, or musicians they most admire
- Additional images of them from various periods of their lives
- Friends and family members’ tributes to the deceased
- Stories, quote or phrases the deceased loved to use.
You have freedom to add as many pages you want because we give you 4 – 20 pages option.
Last page/ Farewell
Keep the last page as basic as possible. For instance, you could:
- A photo of the deceased person’s last known appearance, or something a little different from the one on the front cover.
- Gratitude to attendees and those who gave condolences
- Encourage them to make a financial contribution to a charity in honour of the deceased individual.
