The process of arranging a loved one's funeral can be very difficult, not only because of the tremendous grief during this time. Many people going through this ordeal may find it difficult to arrange a service that they believe the deceased would have wanted if they didn't have their funeral wishes arranged already. This funeral wishes feature at Funeral Guide allows users to record their funeral wishes and share them with loved ones in the event of their death.

This information can help not only to arrange a service that is in keeping with your wishes but also to help loved ones during the funeral planning experience. This feature allows users to pick from options relating to funeral services, including everything from funeral hymns and songs, to the people they want to be included in the service!

Recording Your Funeral Wishes

The feature that we have available allows users to record their answers to 10 questions, which may prove useful when it comes to planning the funeral. These questions vary from the type of funeral you would like to the preferred venue and speaker during the service, with multiple options available here. Other questions allow users to input the songs or hymns they would like to be included in the service and even the text they wish to be remembered by that could feature on a gravestone or memorial.

Once all of the questions have been answered, users can save their funeral wishes by creating an account with Funeral Guide, free of charge. Once your details are saved, it is possible to download a copy of your funeral wishes and share them with friends and family despite how far off the reality of funeral arrangements may seem right now. These can aid loved ones throughout their experiences, especially when it comes to funeral directors putting together a service and day of remembrance and celebration of life.

Funeral Planning

When it comes to arranging a funeral, there are many things to consider, which is where we hope to help at Funeral Guide. We have created a database of funeral directors from across the UK, with information and real customer reviews included, to help you find a company that suits your wishes and budget. This software on-site allows users to find funeral directors in London to Edinburgh funeral directors by simply entering an address or postcode near which you require help in funeral planning.

Along with the collection of companies available using the search bar function or funeral directors A - Z on-site, we have compiled information on all aspects of funeral arranging and bereavement. These resources can prove helpful for anyone going through the terrible situation of planning the funeral of a friend or family member with so many components to think about. The funeral help & advice available on-site provide information for anyone experiencing loss, from what to do when someone dies to bereavement support services available.

Funeral Wishes Ideas

The type of funeral service you want may not be something you have put much thought into before, and deciding on the type of service you want can be difficult. If you want to learn more about the past funeral services held in your area, the location search option relating to obituaries on Funeral Guide can help. Alternatively, our Funeral Guide blog feature is filled with more informative articles relating to all aspects of funeral planning that may prove useful during this time.
