This website is designed as a resource of creative ideas for funerals or memorial services, to help you cope with the funeral or memorial service planning, with everything you need - all in one place.
Even the most creative person can find it stressful when coping with a funeral. When you stop to think about it, trying to honor the memory of your beloved all into the space of one hour can be very overwhelming.
Since funerals usually happen relatively soon after the death of our loved one there is little time to prepare. Emotionally it can often be very difficult. Here you will discover all kinds of creative ideas; poems, readings, eulogies, ideas, songs,
hymns ,
video tributes,
prayers, funeral quotes, and funeral service ideas. And read some of our readers' own poems.
Funerals may be a religious service,focusing on the hereafter, or - what we are seeing more and more non-religious, with the focus more on celebrating the life that was. People want to express how much the deceased meant to them and how much they are going to miss them. Families are designing a service that reflects the life of the deceased.
Just as we are not driving the same car as our parents, we are not wanting the same type of funeral that our parents may have chosen.
More and more, people are wanting services that reflect their lives and tastes.
It is a time for family and friends to share their memories, as
impersonal, generic funerals do not help the family heal.
For many, the ideal celebration consists of favorite songs, stories, photographs, tears, and yes, laughter.
In addition, you'll find there is a growing concern about green burials and the footprint we are leaving behind. The Internet is changing the funeral industry. You can now shop directly online to purchase caskets, and urns, shipped overnight, at substantial savings. We hope Creative-Funeral-Ideas.com can help you with your planning.
