The most special locations for the funeral ceremony

Most funeral ceremonies are held in the funeral home, cemetery, crematorium, church or mosque. These types of locations specialize in this and have all the facilities to ensure that the ceremony runs smoothly. Think of an audio installation with room amplification and the option to show photos and videos. But a funeral ceremony or farewell ceremony may take place anywhere in Rotterdam. For example, it is possible to arrange the farewell ceremony in the Kralingse Bos, on or on the Maas or in the port of Rotterdam. But also in every Rotterdam cafe, theater, museum and even in your own garden. For example, a special funeral location can make a valuable contribution to a personal farewell to a loved one.

Balloons at a Funeral

You can only say goodbye once, so you want to do it in an appropriate way. The release of balloons can literally symbolize the release of your loved one. Or maybe you want to write a last hello on it and see the balloon as a message to the top.

Nowadays in Rotterdam it is forbidden to release balloons because everything that goes up also ends up back down in nature. Although our latex balloons are not made of plastic and are 100% biodegradable, animals can suffocate in the balloons or get tangled in the ribbons attached to the balloons.

We are therefore now discouraging the release of large numbers of balloons and are therefore happy to show you in the photos below what it was like at a funeral in Rotterdam. Fortunately, there are plenty alternatives to use balloons at the cofin (click on the link for pictures).

FAQ

Can you release balloons at a funeral in Rotterdam?

From January 1, 2020, you may no longer release balloons in Rotterdam. Helium balloons that you release at a funeral always end up in nature again. Animals can suffocate in the balloons or become entangled in the ribbons attached to the helium balloons.

Can I still order helium balloons for a funeral?

Sure! Fortunately, there are plenty of alternatives to balloon release. We can float helium balloons against the ceiling above the box or place a number of helium balloons on a balloon weight next to the box.

Can I order helium balloons for a silent ride?

Hell yes! We will deliver the helium balloons in 1 or more bunches at the agreed time and place. When handing out the balloons to the participants of the silent tour, indicate that they will not release the balloons, but will then puncture them and throw them away in the waste bin.

What color balloons are often chosen for a funeral?

White balloons are often chosen for a funeral, but it is also possible that the deceased had a certain favorite color. In any case, we can deliver all colors of the rainbow to all funeral homes, crematoria and cemeteries in Rotterdam.
