Creative Funeral Ideas

The loss of a loved one is always difficult and planning a funeral service or a memorial service that accurately reflects the life of your loved one can be even harder. Below are a few ideas to help you plan your funeral service in a way that will honor your loved one and be memorable for all who attend.

Give your friends and family a way to share their memories with you. This can be setup on a special table at the funeral service. The attendees will see the “share a memory” sign and have the ability to take a “share a memory card” and fill out their best memory they have about your loved one. They can sign the card and drop it into a basket. The table top sign is 8″x10″ and a frame can be added or you can frame it yourself. Our share a memory cards are 4″x6″. All share a memory cards are printed on 110lb matte cover card stock. Click this link to view our “Share a Memory” options.

Remember your loved one with a memorial poster. You can use this as a welcome sign at the memorial/funeral/wake service. Give your funeral service attendees a way to view a beautiful enlarged photo of your loved one. Your funeral poster can contain your loved ones photo, name, birth/passing dates, poems, scriptures, tributes and anything else you may want to display for everyone to see. Our posters are 20″x30″ and can be mounted to foam board or framed. Customize the funeral poster online using our online design tool, or have us customize it for you.
