If you are attending a funeral or planning a service at funeral homes in Greenwood, IN you may also be looking for a nice way to show your loved one some respect and ensure they have a beautiful funeral service and goodbye. There’s more that you can do besides just have a traditional funeral service and if you are looking for a unique way to show your family how much your loved one meant to you, you might want to consider some of these unique and creative options. 


Balloons 


Balloons are often used to show love and respect for a deceased loved one. Many people will gather family and friends together and write down special messages on them and send them to heaven with the deceased. You can also choose to attach small trinkets or flowers to the balloons as well. You will need to make sure it’s okay to release the balloons in the location of your choice as some places do not allow it. You will also need to decide if you want to include a lot of people in the ceremony or just a couple that are close to you. 


Fireworks 


Fireworks might seem like an odd thing to associate with a funeral, but if you are looking for a nice way to show your family how much the deceased mattered to you and you want to do something memorable for them, you might want to think about this option. You will need to find the right place to set off the fireworks and make sure it’s allowed in the area. You can invite a lot of people or just a small group and you can choose to make it a big celebration or just something more personal for close family members. 


Reception 


If you are looking for a great way to bring your family together and also give your loved one the goodbye they deserve, you might want to think about having a reception after the funeral services. This will allow everyone to come to an area together where they can spend some time talking about the deceased and remembering how things were when they were alive. It can be the best way to pay respects to the deceased and it can also help with closure and create a memorable goodbye for the entire family.
