What is a Funeral Order of Service Booklet?
A funeral order of service is a short booklet given out to guests at a funeral. It details the order of the funeral service and often includes readings and hymns dedicated to the person being celebrated.

Do you Have Wedding Programmes at a Civil Ceremony?
Orders of service are used at both civil and religious ceremonies. However, a civil ceremony order of service may not include the same kinds of readings and hymns that are chosen for church ceremonies. The order of the day is entirely up to the couple, and may include things like poem readings and songs rather than prayers and hymns.
