Choosing a ceremony based on your cultural or religious traditions
What are the different types of ceremonies?
Traditional funeral
In keeping with cultural or religious traditions, a traditional funeral consists of the presentation of the body in a casket in a parlour, followed by a ceremony in a church, after which the deceased is taken to the cemetery for burial in the ground or in a crypt.
Depending on the family, the funeral rite can also be celebrated in the chapel of the funeral complex, followed by burial or placing in a crypt in the cemetery.
Traditional funeral followed by cremation
Identical to a traditional funeral, except that the body, after the funeral ceremony, is taken to a crematorium for cremation. The ashes collected will then be buried in a family plot, deposited in a columbarium niche, or given to the family to do with as they see fit.
Funeral in the presence of the ashes
This type of funeral leaves a great deal of latitude to families in the choice and execution of the funeral. See "Cremation" for more details.
Ecological funeral
Discover new funeral rituals such as ash dispersal, planting an urn at the base of a memorial tree, planting a tribute tree, and biodegradable caskets and urns.
Affordable funeral
Funerals at lower cost in less-busy time slots that allow for a simple but dignified and respectful tribute.
Finally, personalized tributes. We can create a personalized tribute according to your tastes, priorities and needs. See the "Commemorations" section for more information.
