What is the difference and what should we choose?

Funeral and burial are both ceremonies following a death, and are often referred to as "burial". However, there is a big difference between the two farewells and in most cases it is a burial. The crucial difference is, in short, how the coffin with the deceased is handled after the ceremony in the church or chapel. At a funeral, the ritual ends with the coffin with the deceased being immersed in the ground in a grave in the cemetery, while a hearse transports the coffin to a crematorium in connection with a burial.

It is the wish of the deceased and the family for a coffin burial or an urn burial that determines whether the last farewell should be a funeral or a burial.
