Beautiful Free Funeral Program Template

The loss of a loved one is without a doubt one of the most traumatic events we’re forced to endure in our lives. Be it the shock of one’s sudden passing, or the finality of something that seemed inevitable, yet could not be accepted until the moment occurred, the aftermath of someone’s passing is filled with many emotions. These emotions are revisited countless times in the days that follow a loved one’s passing, leading up to the funeral.

While the process of planning for a funeral is a sad one for all, for many it is also a time of fond recollection, of celebrating a life that touched the lives of others, including our own. Planning a funeral to incorporate these two rather opposite and warring emotions is not easy, but it can be skilfully and tactfully executed.

The speeches certainly afford the opportunity to make guests both laugh and cry. Another aspect of the funeral that can touch both of these spectrums is the artistic design of the service sheet covers and photo boards used at the funeral, and it’s this challenge that we at Service Sheet Boutique strive to face and overcome each day, the challenge of bringing to life an image, of evoking a cherished memory, with designs that speak to the one depicted on them.

Whether the funeral will be a sombre event, with artistic accompaniment that is classic, stately, and refined, or a celebration of a tremendous life, with triumphant designs that match the zest they carried with them in life, we work closely with our clients to deliver the style and imagery that perfectly captures the essence of the loved one and the event.

Now when it comes to burying our loved ones, we like to think that money is no object, that we’ll spare no expense in ensuring the perfect send off. This is certainly a noble thought, but the reality is that funeral costs continue to rise, while wills and life insurance are often woefully inadequate in covering their expenses. This dilemma has of course been furthered in the past year by the receding economy, tightening the purse strings of families across New Zealand and the world.

If there’s an area where the recession has perhaps had a positive impact on the mindset of many, it’s in the realm of budgeting. People have rediscovered the joy of being smart with money, of looking for value in products and services, and abandoning the notion that more expensive is automatically better, or in some way desirable.

When it comes to funerals, finding those areas where money can be saved is often difficult. At Service Sheet Boutique, one of our first orders of business was to create a set of free templates that any visitors to our site could make use of. As passionate as we are about what we do, and the effect we feel these designs can have on those who view them, we felt it important that everyone be able to have this effect at their own funeral, framing their loved one in a way that is indicative of their individual spirit.

The same eye for soothing designs and elegant style that we’ve used to build all of the works on our site were used to fashion these free templates. We made them to be a real alternative for those who simply can’t afford to have a custom design made, without sacrificing anything in the way of quality.

Making use of the templates is a quick and simple process. From our main page, select the Free Templates link, which will bring you to a new page. From this page you can view the designs and download whichever ones you like, completely free. You don’t need to supply us with any information, signup to the site, or anything else. Simply click to download your free templates and they’ll begin downloading.

Templates are available in both PSD and JPEG formats. The PSD's are layered for ease of use in PhotoShop. Download the jpegs to use in any other program. We have also included font suggestions and font download links.

We would absolutely love for these free templates to be put to good use, so please feel free to visit our site and check them out for yourself, as well as the other products and services we have to offer.

We appreciate your interest in our services, and hope you’ll make use of them in the future, whether it be a custom work, or our lovingly crafted free templates. Best wishes.
