Making arrangements for the actual service

Transport

On the day of the Greek Funeral Service, the hearse will take the coffin to the Greek Funeral Service. The hearse is commonly followed by limousines which will carry the chief mourners. We can provide chauffeured limousines to save you worrying with regards to parking, driving and getting to the service on time.

Remember to inform us when there is a special route you would like the actual procession to take. We are able to speak about this with you as soon as you make the preparations.

Flowers

Many of us select flowers which were a favourite of the person who has died, which can be another way of making the Greek Funeral Service much more personal. There are lots of styles of floral arrangements. In the event that youd as an idea of the type of arrangements individuals often choose, weve put together a brochure that may help you consider what is right for you.

Many people would rather have flowers from the family members only and select an organisation for folks for you to donate to rather than buying flowers. Its really worth remembering that sending flowers could be a healing gesture for people who have lost somebody close. It might be worth giving people the choice of sending a flower arrangement or even donating money to a charity, or both.

Music, as well as hymns, tapes, CDs as well as live music, generally plays an important part in a Greek Funeral Service. Some churches have strict rules on the kind of music permitted. When there is an organ, be sure the actual organist can easily play the hymns or songs you need.
