The Basics Of Funeral Memorial 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.

Consider the information that you want to include in the program. There are different kinds of information you may choose to include. This includes the deceased's biography, photos, poems, songs, order of service and scripture messages. Try to keep the program short and simple.

Come up with a layout for the leaflet. The layout should present the information in the most appealing way and not look overcrowded. You don't have to choose a complex design, something simple made using free software will work just fine.

Have at least one photo of the deceased person in the leaflet. Choose a quality photograph where the person was alone. Avoid group photographs which you may have to crop. You can edit the photo if necessary, if it is not in good condition.

Talk to close family members of the deceased and get their views about the program. Ask them if they had anything in specific in mind. You may have to add or remove information from the program, depending on what their wishes are.

Go through the program and make sure that everything is in order before you print it. Have someone else go through it and provide you with feedback on what they think about the program and if it has any errors. Once you are satisfied with it, you can make many copies so that there are enough funeral programs for the people who will attend the memorial service.
