Orders of service
An order of service is a printed booklet or sheet that guides family and friends through the funeral ceremony. It often includes details of the service, personal tributes, readings, hymns, and photographs.
We can help you design and arrange professional printing, ensuring everything is prepared in time for the service.
Design and printing
We can:
- Create a simple, traditional design
- Include photographs and chosen artwork
- Arrange high-quality printing
- Ensure delivery in time for the funeral
If you prefer, we can also work with designs you have created yourself.
Our team will guide you through the process and advise on timing and quantities.

What can be included?
Orders of service often contain:
- A cover photograph
- Full name, dates of birth and death
- Service details (location, date, time)
- Order of proceedings
- Hymns or songs
- Bible readings or poems
- Personal tributes
- Thank you messages
- Donation information and QR code (if applicable)
- A short biography or life summary
We can help you decide what feels appropriate for your loved one and the type of service being arranged.
Personal touches
Many families choose to include:
- Favourite music lyrics
- Special photographs
- A meaningful poem
- A short message from the family
- Symbols or religious imagery
- A favourite quote
The order of service can be simple and traditional, or fully personalised. There is no right or wrong approach – we will help you create something that reflects the person’s life.
When to arrange it
We recommend finalising the order of service once the key elements of the funeral have been confirmed.
We will work with you to ensure:
- All details are accurate
- The design is approved
- Printing is completed in time for the service
Funeral transport
Funeral transport can be arranged to suit the style and wishes of the service, from traditional hearses and limousines to more personal options. We will guide you through the choices available.
