First night of mourning

Traditional locations for a memorial service are churches, homes, funeral homes, and other rented event locations. The number of people attending reflects on the size of venue needed. If the deceased did not have a strong religious affiliation, consider places that reflect their personality or interests. For example, the memorial for a nature lover might be held at a local park or garden. Also, try to choose a location that is convenient for friends and family members. Remember, more than one memorial service can be held.
