Creating a memorable funeral order of service is both a tribute to the deceased and a source of comfort to the bereaved. This guide aims to help you craft an order of service that honours your loved one’s memory with dignity, respect, and personal touches that speak to their unique life and legacy. For a more detailed step-by-step guide on writing the content for your service, see our comprehensive How to Write a Funeral Order of Service page.

Start with Understanding the Purpose

The funeral order of service serves as a roadmap for the ceremony, guiding attendees through the various stages of the service. More than just a sequence of events, it’s an opportunity to reflect the personality, beliefs, and passions of the deceased. Understanding this helps set the tone for creating something truly memorable.

Incorporate Personal Elements

– Photos: Use photographs that capture the essence of the loved one’s life, including milestones and everyday moments. A cover photo should represent them well, while additional pictures inside can depict different stages of their life, highlighting their journey and the people important to them.
– Quotes and Poems: Include meaningful quotes, favorite sayings, or excerpts from literature or religious texts that were significant to the deceased. These can provide comfort and resonate with attendees on a personal level.
– Music: List the pieces of music or hymns to be played during the service. Music deeply influences the ceremony’s emotional tone, so choose songs that were favorites of the deceased or convey the message you wish to impart.
– Symbols and Themes: Integrate symbols or themes that reflect the deceased’s hobbies, career, or passions. This could be as subtle as a color scheme or as direct as using motifs from nature, sports, or the arts.

Offer a Narrative

– Life Story: A brief biography or timeline of significant life events can be a powerful addition. Focus on the highlights, achievements, and the qualities that made them unique.
– Tributes and Memories: Invite close friends and family to contribute short anecdotes or memories. These personal stories add depth and serve as poignant reminders of the impact the deceased had on the lives of others.

Think About the Aftercare

The order of service can be a keepsake for those who attend. Use high-quality paper and a beautiful design that attendees will want to hold onto. Adding a section with details on how to support the family or contribute to a charity in memory of the deceased can also extend the service’s impact beyond the day itself.

Make It Accessible

Ensure that the order of service is accessible to all attendees:
– Clear, Readable Fonts: Choose fonts that are elegant yet easy to read, considering larger font sizes for older attendees.
– Consider Online Options: For those unable to attend in person, consider creating a digital version of the order of service that can be shared or even a dedicated website where people can add their memories and tributes.

A memorable funeral order of service is a beautiful homage to a loved one’s life. It’s an artifact of remembrance, a comfort to the grieving, and a celebration of a life. By blending personal touches with traditional elements and ensuring the service is inclusive and considerate of all attendees, you can create a fitting tribute that honours the deceased in a way that is both profound and touching.

What is a funeral order of service?

A funeral order of service is a thoughtfully crafted booklet that guides attendees through the funeral or memorial service. It serves as a printed roadmap, detailing the specific sequence of events planned for the service. This typically includes the order of eulogies, the songs or hymns to be sung, poignant readings, and any special music that holds significance for the loved ones of the deceased. The order of service not only ensures that the ceremony flows smoothly but also provides a tangible keepsake where cherished memories and moments are commemorated.

How do I create a funeral order of service?

Creating a funeral order of service is a deeply personal process that allows you to honour the life of a loved one. Start by gathering personal details such as their full name, dates of birth and death, and a photograph. The order of service should include a welcome message, an outline of the ceremony, including any readings, hymns, or music, and details of the officiant. You may also wish to include a eulogy, poems, or other tributes. For a more personal touch, consider incorporating cherished photographs throughout the booklet. If you’re planning to design the order of service yourself, there are many templates available online that can guide you. For a professional touch, our printing service offers a range of customisable designs and we assist every step of the way to ensure your order of service is a fitting tribute to your loved one’s memory. For an in-depth guide on crafting a meaningful funeral order of service, including step-by-step instructions and considerations for content, please see our comprehensive blog post: ‘How to Write a Funeral Order of Service.‘

What should be included in a funeral order of service?

A funeral order of service typically contains the following elements:

• The cover page with the name and photo of the deceased, along with the date and location of the service.
• An introduction or welcome message, often including a thank you note from the family.
• A detailed schedule of the service, listing the sequence of events, names of speakers, titles of readings or songs, and any other ceremonial details.
• Personal touches, such as favourite quotes, poems, or anecdotes about the deceased.
• Closing messages or a note about the reception or gathering following the service. Optionally, you can add a brief biography, acknowledgements of the medical staff or hospice if appropriate, and information about charitable donations in lieu of flowers.

Remember to allow yourself time to review and perfect the content, ensuring it’s error-free and printed well before the day of the service. With our expedited printing options, including same-day printing and complimentary next-day delivery, we ensure that you have these important keepsakes ready when you need them.
