The Basics Of Funeral Service Programs

Funeral directors or homes may charge you quite a bit of money if you want them to assist you to write funeral programs. If you are on a tight budget and don't have the money to spend, you can write your own program. This will allow you to even add any personal touches you want. Knowing how to go about it will help you through the process.

Decide what kind of information you want to include in the leaflet. Only include the most essential information, so as to keep the program simple and short. The information that is included should help people know more about the deceased, as well as provide guidance on how time will be used during the memorial and burial services.

Come up with a layout of the leaflet. The layout should be able to incorporate all the information and still look presentable. You can design your own using any design software you have or you can download ready made templates from the Internet.

Include a quality photo of the deceased. Try and find a quality photo that was taken by a professional. So as to avoid having to crop the photo, find one in which the deceased is alone in the picture. You can retouch the photo using a photo editing software to enhance it.

Get input from other family members about what they would want included in the program. If possible, be willing to accommodate their wishes. Try and match the theme of the program with the rest of the theme of the event.

Take time to go through the program once you are done writing and laying it out. Check if there are any errors or inconsistency on the information provided and the layout. Have another person also go through the program to cross check if it is okay. Once you are sure everything is fine, print the funeral programs on high quality paper.
