A Complete Guide to Creating a Funeral Booklet
Creating an order of service for a funeral is a meaningful process. Here, we outline the key elements to help you craft the perfect tribute, whether you're looking for a simple funeral pamphlet or a multi-page funeral brochure.
What to Include in a Funeral Order of Service
The structure is the backbone of the booklet. While every service is unique, this list can serve as a helpful funeral order of service template or guide. A common funeral program format includes:
- A cover page with a photo, name, and dates of your loved one.
- Introductory Music or Welcome
- Opening Prayers or Reflections
- Hymns, Songs, or Musical Tributes
- Readings or Poems
- The Eulogy or Life Story
- A Photo Montage or Moment of Reflection
- Committal and Closing Words
- Details for the wake or reception.
- A final thank you message from the family.
(This list provides a helpful funeral service order of service example for families.)
Personalising Your Tribute with Photos & Stories
This is where the booklet for a funeral transforms from a guide into a funeral memory book. We encourage you to include cherished photos, a short biography, or even small anecdotes that capture their personality. This makes the booklet at the funeral a deeply intimate and engaging tribute.
Choosing a Design: Funeral Booklet Templates & Custom Options
The design should complement the tone of the service. You can choose from our wide range of funeral booklet templates or collaborate with us to create a completely custom design that reflects your loved one's spirit.
