Funerals are family reunions with one less family member. It’s the time people offer comfort for the bereaved family. Sierra Cremations makes funeral receptions just like another family reunion.

A family reunion is an event or function where distant family members come together at a venue from all over the country to catch up and feel like a family again. It usually comprises of having meals and bonding or interacting with relatives.
In the United States, it’s only traditional to hold a gathering after a funeral service. The reception provides time for family, friends, and others paying their respects to gather, share memories, and offer support to one another. The reception is not usually meant to be a party, but food and beverages are still present.
Sierra Cremation stated that “[Family reunions] are no different from post-funeral services we organize. We’ve seen it, and both are exactly the same.”
The post-funeral reception is an opportunity to mourn the passing of the person who has died, and most importantly, to celebrate their life. Post-funeral services allow relatives and friends to express their condolences and support for the deceased person’s family.
Funerals can often be tiring, sober and emotional, and this is usually the reason why families organize a post-funeral reception after the funeral service. Some of the guests may have travelled from distant places. It’s a way to provide meals and beverages for guests who may not have had a chance to eat anything before the funeral.
Although many funeral receptions are solemn, some family still choose to have entertainment and decorate the venue in a certain way.
Sierra Cremations have lots of experience of planning funeral receptions and have useful contacts with local venues. They are expert in the field and guide their clients through the process.
Sierra Cremations added “All post-funeral reception can look different. The purpose of it is to comfort loved ones and offer support during times of grief. It keeps memories alive and is an opportunity to create new memories. I hope some people will realize that it’s better to hold family reunions while everyone is still alive.”
