Non-Denominational

A non-denominational funeral service is a funeral that celebrates the life of the deceased without following any religious traditions, beliefs, or rituals. Instead, the service focuses on the words and sentiments of the deceased's loved ones. 

Here are some things to consider when planning a non-denominational funeral: 

• Readings: You can include non-religious readings or incorporate religious texts from different faiths. 
• Music: The family can choose to play music at the service. 
• Tributes: Loved ones can perform eulogies or deliver other tributes. 
• Donations: Donations to charity are a way to honor the deceased.
• Flowers: Locally sourced, organic flowers are an appropriate way to show sympathy. 
• Venue: You can hold a non-religious funeral service in a cemetery chapel, crematorium, community center, garden, public park, woodland burial ground, hotel, or your own home. 
• Celebrant: A humanist celebrant can write and conduct a non-religious ceremony that focuses on the life of the deceased.
