The Distinctive Features of a Traditional Burial
Firstly, it is important to state that there is no fixed way to organise a traditional burial. Muslim burials will often differ from Christian ones, for example, while non-religious interment services can also be arranged, too. Some elements may be preferred but you do not have to include all of the traditional aspects of a burial service if you don’t want to. At Newrest Funerals, we will guide you through the process so you get the traditional service you want without paying for things that are not so important to you.
Typically, a traditional burial will include the use of a classic hearse – or even a horse-drawn one – to convey the body to the funeral service. You will also need a cemetery plot or one in a graveyard as well as a traditional coffin. Most traditional burials will also feature a floral coffin spray. You will also need to consider whether to have a religious representative run the order of service. This may include a graveside committal or it could be that you hire a venue for the service itself before the interment. Music and a eulogy will also need to be thought about in advance, something we can help you with if you have no firm ideas of your own yet.
