A non-religious funeral service is one that does not follow the funeral service style of any particular faith. These types of funeral services are usually held in a non-religious chapel but can also be held elsewhere, for example, at the beach, in a park or at the family home. They are usually led by a celebrant.

The service itself will usually include the following:

• A welcoming
• Musical tributes
• One or more eulogies
• Readings
• Video or photo presentations
• The farewell

There are many opportunities to personalise a non-religious funeral service. Many families like to have a video display or photos included in the proceedings and printed booklets available which usually include a photograph of the loved one. Some people even choose to use a personalised coffin to truly reflect the personality of their loved one.
