Working On A Memorial After Cremation Services
When you work with a provider and have cremation services in Daytona Beach, FL done for a loved one, the package you get from the provider is all you have to have. It will include transportation for your loved ones to their facilities, dignified care, the actual cremation process, and a simple container for their remains. You can, of course, add extras, and many families like to choose a unique urn. However, you might also want to have a memorial service for that person. Memorial services are on no timeline once the cremation part of the process is complete. You can have the service right away or you can wait for a week, a month, or even a year. Here are some things you will want to do to create the perfect, special memorial service.
Decide On A Timeline
While the timeline is completely up in the air and up to you, once you are ready to plan, you will want to have a date in mind so you can arrange things toward that end goal. If you want to choose an exact date, you can be more exact about the plans you make. Even if the timeline means you are waiting a month, it’s nice to have a date in mind so you can let family members know when they need to travel to the area.
Choose A Venue
Where do you want the memorial service to take place? There are some locations that need to be booked in advance so it’s good to decide where you want to have the memorial once you know what day you are having it. You will need to let the church know you want the space if you are having it there. You might need to book the community center room. And you might even want to reserve time in a park shelter for the family. The venue will help you set the tone for the service so decide what you want and make sure you can get into that location.
Get Into The Details
Having a time, date, and location is a good start. Then you have to get into the more minute details. IF you are having a traditional service, you might want to line up readers, special music, and other such elements. If you are having a picnic in the park to celebrate a life well-lived, you will want to ask family to bring certain foods or find a caterer that can provide what you want. Every element you plan will go towards making the event special and memorable.
