Over the past several generations, a traditional service typically involved embalming, a visitation and/or viewing, followed by a funeral service. It is not unusual for families to change the order of events within a traditional service, such as having a graveside service occur prior to a visitation and service. Except in certain cases, embalming is not required by law. Embalming may be necessary, however, if you select certain funeral arrangements, such as a public viewing.

Increasingly, there has been a preference for simpler options. Many families have decided that they are not interested in what has become known as a traditional funeral. However, they think their only alternative is cremation. Our goal at Simple Funerals to provide affordable, alternative burial options that do not require embalming yet allow for family viewings and public graveside services.
