Event Planners in a Celebration of Life
Like any other event, the celebration of life requires a lot of planning and coordination. Here is where events planners for this kind of celebration is needed.
Unlike normal funerals, the celebration of life is a commemoration of the life of a deceased person. The memory of the said person is relived and remembered in a joyful moment, unlike funerals where it is a time for mourning and grief.
It is for this reason that celebration of life events are not simple gatherings that can be done with minimal planning. In many cases, this event is set by family as a time for a reunion of relatives to remember the life of their deceased loved one a few days after the funeral or during the anniversary of the dearly departed.
Here are some of the basic things an event planner will cover:
- Help in creating a guest list for invitations
- Organize a multimedia presentation that will include photos, videos and audio recordings of the deceased.
- Catering service for food and refreshments.
- Prepare a program so that the event is memorable and not dull.
- Help in the budgeting, planning and execution of a celebration of life.
