Funeral Order of Service
Ideas and Inspiration for an Order of Service Booklet
These days, order of service booklets come in all shapes, designs and sizes. More and more, people like to personalise and customise the order of service so that it reflects the life and character of the person it is honouring.
There is no right or wrong way to do it, but there are some things that it is helpful to include. Here we guide you through and offer ideas and inspiration to help with this task.
Customised and Personalised Order of Service Booklet
It’s lovely to include photos of the person throughout their life, and perhaps images and designs that reflect their hobbies or favourite pastimes. If you have the time and the know-how you could produce this at home on your computer, or there are lots of companies that offer templates and printing services online. Or, if you prefer, there are funeral stationery designers who can help you to put together a fully customised booklet.
Traditional Order of Service Booklet
Some people like to have something more simple and traditional. This might include a photo or two, but generally has plain black type on the cover.
Online Templates for an Order of Service
Funeral stationery suppliers offer online templates that you can customise yourself. Choose a template, add photos and text, and they will then print and deliver.
The order of service content can be as plain or elaborate as you wish. It can include photos, quotations and helpful information about who has contributed to the service. There’s lots more guidance about what to include in our Information about creating an Order of Service section.
