Caerphilly, UK - What should you consider when Planning a Funeral.

At Caerphilly Services we understand that losing a family member or friend is one of the most difficult things you will go through in your life. Not only do you have to deal with the extreme emotions and coming to terms with losing someone you love, you will also have the daunting task of planning a memorial service.

We have put together some hints and tips on the things you should think about at this difficult time.

1) Meet with close family or friends to find out if they had an official or non-official memorial service plan and any insurance policies in place to support with the cost of it. Find out if they had talked about their memorial wishes including; location, type of service, songs, hymns and poems. If there has been no plan been left by your departed then there are two questions that need answering and agreeing:

- Will the body be buried or cremated?

- What type of service will you be having for your loved one?

Types of Services:

- A formal service is when you have a service before the body is buried or cremated

- A memorial service is when you have a service after the body has been buried or cremated

- A graveside service is just like a funeral only it takes place on the gravesite

If your loved one had made a plan then you can work directly with the particular Directors who will have a copy.
