The thought of being swept out of this mortal coil to the sounds of wailing and weeping are too depressing to bare. So why not leave them laughing and have a fancy dress funeral.
If you were a trecky in your mortal existence why not instruct all mourners to dress as Captain Spock, if you were into gardening
they should all dress up as Alan Titchmarsh.
I myself am a humanist and want my funeral in a church where there will be a £1000 prize for the best dressed disciple.
Ghanese coffins.
http://www.artsonth...fantasycoffins.html People's coffins are shaped like something important to them in their life, often brightly painted. They're very beautiful, and would serve well to set a theme for the fancy dress parade. [jutta, Nov 22 2004]

Difficult one this, but if the right people are there it could go down well. The last funeral I went to was very emotional but ended in a good wake. People knew she wanted a great goodbye party, and she got one. [+] |

PS I would really like a congregation dressed as Chewbacca. |

I think this is a good idea, and am aware of one funeral that was somewhat like this. I think it would come down to the personality and wishes of the deceased. If it was what they wanted, i can't see why it would be a problem at all. A wedding would be good too, because then the couple would get to experience the spectacle. |

This is cute; like those "sort of smutty" birthday cards people laugh at but are too mortified to actually give at parties. |
