When someone you love passes away, naturally, you want to honor them with the unique funeral service they deserve. From the quotes you read to the flowers you select, every detail can shed light on and memorialize a beautiful life. Today, the caring professionals from Adzima Funeral Home in Stratford, CT, will outline a few tips for making this significant occasion one to remember.

Even traditional funeral services can have unique touches that set themselves apart from the rest. Here are a few ways to thoughtfully personalize your loved one’s funeral:

• Play with Displays: Photos are an important part of remembering and cherishing the life of your loved one. For a truly exceptional service, invite friends and relatives to send you memorable photos. Then, arrange them in a thoughtful way of your choosing: whether that includes a photo wreath, projector display, or decorative picture wall.
• Consider Personality: Your loved one had a unique personality, interests, and passions. Let these attributes shine through during their funeral service. If your loved one adored daisies, play up the venue with them! If they adored Miles Davis and all things jazz, play a few songs during their service. If your loved one was passionate about environmental causes, consider inviting guests to donate to a particular charity of importance.
• Be Symbolic: Details such as choice of color or flower arrangments can lend symbolic significance to this occasion. For example, yellow symbolizes freshness and joy, while purple represents romance and nostalgia. White is for purity; gold is for wisdom. Hyacinths represent sincerity, while delphiniums represent boldness. Speak to the spirit of your loved one through these subtle details so that the essence of who they were can fully shine through during their service.
