Roman Catholic Parlour Wake Package – From $3000

Our package includes all essential funeral services required for a dignified Roman Catholic wake and cremation.

A Complete Roman Catholic Funeral Service

Our Roman Catholic Parlour Wake Package is designed to provide families with a complete funeral solution while maintaining the dignity and traditions of the Catholic faith. From the moment your loved one is entrusted to our care, our team will manage every aspect of the funeral arrangement professionally and respectfully.

The wake provides family members and friends with an opportunity to gather, pray, offer condolences, and celebrate the life of the deceased. The Divine Mercy backdrop creates a prayerful atmosphere, allowing visitors to reflect and seek comfort through faith.

Professional Embalming and Preparation

Professional embalming and makeup are included in the package to ensure your loved one is presented peacefully and respectfully. Our experienced embalmers take great care in preparing the deceased, providing comfort to family members during the wake.

The package also includes a polished half-glass wood casket available in either brown or white, allowing family and friends to pay their final respects in a dignified setting.

Funeral Day Arrangements

On the funeral day, our professional funeral director will oversee the entire ceremony, ensuring that every detail is handled smoothly. A glass hearse will be provided for the final journey, together with professional casket bearers who will conduct the procession with dignity and respect.

A 45-seater bus is also included for family members and guests travelling to the crematorium, ensuring everyone can attend the final farewell together.

Cremation Fee Included

Unlike many funeral packages that exclude government fees, our Roman Catholic Parlour Wake Package includes the cremation fee, providing families with greater transparency and peace of mind.

For official information regarding cremation, ash storage and post-death matters in Singapore, families may refer to the National Environment Agency (NEA).

Online Obituary and Ash Collection Service

To help inform relatives and friends, we provide an online obituary service. This allows funeral details, prayer schedules, and service timings to be shared conveniently.

Following cremation, our team will collect the ashes on behalf of the family. We can subsequently deliver the ashes to the family home, church, or columbarium for interment according to the family’s wishes.

Roman Catholic Sea Burial in Singapore: What the Church Allows

Roman Catholic sea burial in Singapore follows clear and established Church guidelines.
In particular, families may proceed only when they place the cremated ashes in a
sealed urn and commit it respectfully into the sea.
Therefore, the Church recognises sea burial as a dignified form of burial rather than scattering.

Can Roman Catholics Choose Sea Burial?

Yes, Roman Catholics may choose sea burial.
However, the Church allows this option only when families seal the ashes in a proper urn.
In this way, the burial reflects reverence and continuity with Catholic burial traditions.

Moreover, when families follow these requirements, sea burial fulfils the Church’s expectation
of a final resting place, just as burial in a grave or placement in a columbarium niche would.

Catholic Rules for Sea Burial

To preserve dignity and faith, the Church requires families to follow specific rules.
Accordingly, Roman Catholic sea burial must observe the following:

First, families must cremate the body
Next, they must place the ashes in a sealed, non-dissolvable urn
In addition, the urn must not release ashes into the sea
Finally, families must lower the urn respectfully during the burial

As a result, the Church does not permit scattering ashes, dividing them among relatives,
or keeping them at home.

Why Must Ashes Be Sealed in an Urn?

The Catholic Church teaches that the human body remains sacred even after death.
For this reason, sealing the ashes in an urn expresses reverence, faith, and hope.

It honours the dignity of the deceased
It reflects belief in the resurrection of the body
It provides a permanent and respectful resting place

Consequently, a Roman Catholic sea burial with a sealed urn carries the same spiritual meaning
as traditional burial practices.

Prayer Service Before a Roman Catholic Sea Burial

Before the sea burial, families often arrange a short prayer service or Final Commendation.
In many cases, a priest offers prayers and blessings.
Alternatively, families may hold prayers before departing for the burial location.

Therefore, families should consult their parish priest early
so that the arrangements remain fully aligned with Church guidance.
