About this service
A peaceful transition, guided with care
Our Buddhist funerals are led by directors who understand the rites, the chanting and the customs your family observes. We coordinate with temples and monks, prepare the altar, and make sure every prayer session is carried out properly.
From the wake setup to the floral tributes and the essential documentation, everything is handled by our own team, so your family can focus on remembrance rather than logistics.

Questions families ask
Frequently asked questions
How long is a Buddhist wake usually?
Most Buddhist wakes run over three days, though some families observe five days or longer depending on their traditions. We shape the arrangement around what matters to you.
Do you work with our temple?
Yes. We coordinate with temples across Singapore, and we are glad to work with your family’s preferred temple or monks.
What do the monks do during the wake?
Monks lead the chanting and prayers, guide the family through the rites, and offer spiritual support throughout the wake.
What is included in the $6,088 package?
Everything listed on this page, from the casket, embalming and Mandai cremation fee to the full venue setup, chanting sessions, prayer items, refreshments and funeral-day transport. It is fully itemised before anything begins, with no hidden costs.
How much does a Buddhist funeral cost in Singapore?
A Buddhist funeral with Funeral Home Team starts from $6,088 for a three-day service, fully itemised in writing before anything begins. The final cost depends on the length of the wake and the arrangements your family chooses.
How soon after death is a Buddhist funeral held?
A Buddhist wake usually begins within a day of passing and runs over three or five days, with the cremation on the final day. We handle the timing, the permits and the Mandai booking so everything flows around your family.
How much should I give as pek kim at a Buddhist funeral?
There is no fixed amount for pek kim. Most give what feels comfortable, often in odd-numbered sums placed in a white envelope. Your presence and support mean far more to the family than the amount.
What should I wear to a Buddhist wake?
Dress modestly in dark or muted colours and avoid red. Offer quiet condolences, and follow the family’s lead during the chanting and prayers. Our team gently guides any guest who is unsure of the customs.
