The cost of the wake is not usually included in the funeral cost in the UK. The wake is a separate event. Families have the option to arrange the wake themselves or select a venue that provides packages for these types of gatherings.
When choosing a venue for a funeral wake, families often look for places that reflect their loved one’s personality and can provide a comfortable space for guests to gather and mourn. Options can include community halls, pubs, restaurants, and other private event spaces that can accommodate the expected number of attendees. Many families choose venues with sentimental value or those that offer convenient catering services or have a convenient location for the guests.
