Often seen as a celebration of a life, memorial services can take place anywhere and anytime. There are no set rules to follow, and you may wish to hold more than one, for example: on the anniversary of death, or on a special birthday.
Some popular ideas for a memorial service include:
A private venue which was special to your loved one. Perhaps they were a member of a sports or social club.
Local village hall
Church or crematorium chapel
A family home
You may also choose to create keepsakes to help others remember the service and the life of your loved one. Another popular idea is a memory book for guests to write messages in – this can help remind you of the significance your loved one had in others’ lives.
