Selecting A Good 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.

Carefully select the kind of information to include in the program. Only include important details that will provide overall guidance on how the event should run. Some essential information to include in the leaflet are the biography details of the deceased, order of service and any special songs or verses to be recited on that day.

Choose a template design. This will give you a layout of the information you want to include. You can either design your own program or download a ready made template from the Internet. Choose the colors to use and a suitable font size that is legible.

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.

When writing funeral programs, always remember to proofread it before you print. Check for any grammar errors and design mistakes. If possible, have one or two more people proofread it too. Then print the program on high quality paper. Make enough copies, depending on the number of people who will attend.
