How to Design a Winning Order of Service for Your Event
Planning a wedding, memorial, or special ceremony? Your Order of Service is the guiding document that sets the tone and flow for your guests. At PRINTBOX LONDON, we’re here to help you craft a polished and meaningful booklet that honours your occasion.
1. Understand the Purpose
The Order of Service acts as a roadmap for your event, highlighting key moments like readings, music, and special tributes. Make sure it captures the structure and essence of your ceremony.
2. Choose the Right Format
From folded booklets to single-leaf handouts, format choices impact readability and style. We offer a wide selection of options—including wedding Order of Service booklets and funeral Order of Service designs—printed locally in Tottenham.
3. Design with a Theme
Reflect your event's mood with suitable colour palettes, fonts, and visuals. Weddings often feature soft, elegant styles while memorial services may lean toward understated tones. At PRINTBOX LONDON, we offer a variety of paper stocks and finishes to match your vision.
4. Include Essential Details
- Event Title: Make it prominent. Examples: “Amy & James Wedding” or “In Loving Memory of Sarah.”
- Date & Time: Include clear ceremony information.
- Agenda: Use bullet points or numbered lists for clarity.
- Personal Touches: Add quotes, hymns, or acknowledgements to resonate personally.
5. Keep It Reader‑Friendly
Prioritise clean typography, spacing, and easy-to-follow layouts. Avoid dense text and embrace white space so your guests can navigate effortlessly.
6. Visuals Matter
Imagery can enhance emotion—consider featuring a photo, a custom monogram, or a ceremony icon. Our photo printing services ensure vibrant, high-resolution visuals.
7. Proofread and Review
Typos or incorrect details can tarnish the memory of your event—always double-check and have others review the text.
8. Choose the Right Printing Option
With PRINTBOX LONDON, you benefit from 24/7 same-day printing—perfect for last-minute needs. Whether it's a funeral or wedding service, our team delivers outstanding quality quickly and affordably.
