Memorial Service
Coordination
At no other time in life are the services of an
event planner probably more called for than at an event marking the
end of someone's life. While planning parties and weddings are fun,
planning a memorial service is difficult at best, particularly if
you live far away from the location. It can also be difficult if you
want to plan something other than the traditional funeral home
service. Let us help you by being a kind, compassionate,
professional, friend through all this.
A typical memorial service package includes our
assisting with the following:
Location selection
Coordination with funeral home
Selection of theme, readings, and music
Hiring of musicians, speakers, and/or other performers
Writing of the obituary, announcements, invitations, and programs
Preparation of address lists and notification of those on the list
Rehearsal with officiant and/or master of ceremonies
Flowers or other decorations, urns
Greet guests and assist ushers with seating
Direct event
If there will be a reception afterwards, selection of location,
refreshments, and other details
Budget and filing of necessary forms with Medicaid, insurance
company, or attorneys
For an additional charge:
Counseling and/or assistance with children's
activities during the events
Assistance with inventorying, packing and/or disposition of personal
effects
Transportation and assistance with elderly attendees
Scattering of ashes
Preparation of a scrapbook, slide show, powerpoint or other
mixed media product documenting the life of the person
