Memorial Favours: Thoughtful Ideas for Funerals & Celebrations of Life

Choosing memorial favours can be a gentle way to thank family and friends for being there and to give them a small reminder of someone special.

What are memorial favours?

Memorial favours are small keepsakes or tokens given to guests at a funeral, memorial service or celebration of life. They can be simple, practical or symbolic, depending on what feels appropriate for the family.

Thoughtful memorial favour ideas

Seed favours

Personalised seed envelopes can represent remembrance, growth and new beginnings.

Memorial candles

A candle can provide a simple symbol of remembrance and can be personalised where the product allows.

Memorial keyrings

A small keyring can give family and friends a lasting keepsake that they can carry with them.

Memorial tea favours

A tea favour can offer guests a quiet moment at home and provide a thoughtful way to say thank you.

Memorial ribbons

Personalised ribbons can be worn or displayed as a gentle visual symbol of remembrance.

How many memorial favours should you order?

Start with the number of guests who are expected to receive one and consider a small number of extras.

What should you personalise?

Popular choices include the person's name, dates, a short remembrance message or a simple symbol. Check every spelling and date carefully.

When should you order?

Allow enough time for preparation, production and delivery. If you have a specific service date, contact the supplier before ordering so the timescale can be discussed.

Choosing something appropriate

There is no single right memorial favour. Choose something that feels respectful, suits the family and reflects the person being remembered.
