order of service for funerals

The order of service for a funeral can vary depending on the individual’s wishes, religious or cultural traditions, and the preferences of the family. In general, however, a typical funeral service might include the following elements:

  1. Gathering: Guests and family members arrive at the funeral home or other location where the service is being held.
  2. Procession: The casket is carried into the funeral chapel or other location where the service is being held, followed by the family and guests.
  3. Opening remarks: The officiant or other person leading the service may welcome everyone and offer a few words of comfort or introduction.
  4. Readings: This might include passages from religious texts, poems, or other writings that are meaningful to the deceased or their loved ones.
  5. Eulogy: A eulogy is a speech given by a family member, friend, or other person who knew the deceased well. The eulogy may include stories, memories, and reflections on the life of the person who has passed away.
  6. Music: Funerals often include music that is meaningful to the deceased or their loved ones. This might be a religious hymn, a favourite song, or instrumental music.
  7. Committal: This is the part of the service where the body is committed to its final resting place. This may include a burial or cremation, depending on the individual’s wishes and the customs of the location where the service is being held.
  8. Closing: The officiant or other person leading the service may offer a few closing words or a final prayer, and the service may conclude with everyone leaving the chapel or other location where the service was held.

The back of the order of service is usually where people choose to place personal touches, thank-you notes for guests, and additional information. For example, a personal message from the deceased’s family, a favourite quote or poem, or a list of those who made contributions to the service, among other things, could be included.

Also, it is a good place to include any special instructions or notes for attendees, such as the location of a reception or the attire for the service.

Ultimately, the contents of the back of an order of service are up to the individual or family planning the funeral, and should reflect the life and personality of the deceased.

It is common for a funeral order of service to include a picture of the deceased. This can be a recent photograph, or a more nostalgic one from earlier in their life. The choice of photograph is personal and can be determined by the family and loved ones of the deceased.
