How much does a Christian funeral package cost in Singapore?
A Christian funeral package with Harmony Funeral Care starts from $3,380 nett for a funeral-parlour wake of two or more days and from $4,360 nett for a wake at an HDB void deck — the void-deck rate is a minimum that applies whether the wake runs one, two or three days. A one-day wake at a funeral parlour is also available; ask us for a customised quote. Direct cremation without a wake starts from $1,380. The final amount depends on the venue, wake duration, casket, transport, church requirements and optional personalisation selected by the family.

| Christian funeral-parlour wake (1 day) | Ask for a customised quote | Funeral parlour, 1 day | Families wanting a brief, lower-cost wake |
| Christian funeral-parlour wake (2 or more days) | From $3,380 nett | Funeral parlour, 2 or more wake days | Families preferring an established funeral venue |
| Christian HDB void-deck wake | From $4,360 nett | HDB void deck, 1 to 3 days (minimum rate applies regardless of duration) | Families wanting the wake near home |
| Church wake or service | Quoted after confirmation | Subject to church approval | Families arranging the funeral through their church |

"From" means the lowest currently available price for the stated package, venue and duration. "Nett" means the price you pay, with no separate GST or service charge added on top. Third-party, venue, government and family-selected charges may still apply where identified in the quotation.
A one-day wake at a funeral parlour is priced individually; ask us for a customised quote. This lower-cost option is not available at an HDB void deck: the minimum rate of $4,360 nett applies whether the wake runs one, two or three days, so choosing a shorter void-deck wake does not reduce the price.

Funeral parlour versus HDB void-deck package
Neither venue is always cheaper overall; the better fit depends on your family's priorities. For a one-day wake specifically, a funeral parlour is the lower-cost option, since the HDB void-deck minimum rate does not reduce for a shorter wake.
| Consideration | Funeral parlour | HDB void deck |
|---|---|---|
| Setup | Existing venue facilities | Tentage, tables, chairs, fans and lighting required |
| Location | Depends on the selected parlour | Usually close to the family's home |
| Availability | Subject to parlour availability | Subject to town-council approval and site suitability |
| Venue charges | Confirmed in your quotation | Confirmed in your quotation, including any permit charge |
| Weather | Usually indoors or fully sheltered | Additional rain and heat management may be needed |
| One-day wake | Available; ask for a customised quote | Not cost-effective — the 3-day minimum rate still applies |
| Package price | From $3,380 nett (2 or more days) | From $4,360 nett (minimum rate, 1 to 3 days) |
| Suitable for | Families preferring an established venue, or a lower-cost one-day wake | Families wanting the wake within their neighbourhood |
What may cost extra?
These items are typically charged separately, either because they depend on your choices or because they are used on request. All of them are shown in your itemised quotation.
| Item | Typical cost | Price basis |
|---|---|---|
| Venue rental | Confirmed in your quotation | Venue or third-party charge, depending on location |
| Additional wake day | About $300 to $500 per day | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Government cremation fee | $100 for an adult, $50 for a child under 10, at Mandai (NEA) | Government fee, set by NEA |
| Casket upgrade | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price, depends on the model |
| Additional floral arrangements | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Catering and beverages | About $16 per person (30-person minimum) | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Newspaper obituary | Confirmed after consultation | Third-party charge, quoted individually |
| Additional transport | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Additional coaches | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Custom tentage | Confirmed after site assessment | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Private-property setup | Confirmed after site assessment | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Photography and videography | About $650 to $850, where not already included | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Special memorial products | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price |
| Pastor love gift or honorarium | Confirmed directly with the pastor or church | Family-to-pastor gift, not a Harmony Funeral Care fee |
| Church-related charges | Confirmed with the church | Third-party charge, not set by Harmony Funeral Care |
| Burial-related costs | $940 for an adult, $420 for a child 10 and under (NEA) | Government fee, set by NEA |
| Special embalming or advanced-condition care | Confirmed after consultation | Harmony Funeral Care price, where applicable |
Government fees are set by NEA and may change. Third-party fees are set by that party, not by Harmony Funeral Care, and are confirmed at the time of booking. We have not published a fixed pastor love-gift figure on this page because the amount is set by the family and the pastor, not by Harmony Funeral Care.
Church and pastor charges
Many families arrange the religious service through the deceased's own church or pastor. Where a family does not have a pastor, Harmony Funeral Care can help explore an appropriate pastoral arrangement, subject to availability and denominational suitability.
A pastor may not charge a formal service fee, but most families provide a love gift or honorarium as a genuine, commonly expected cost of the funeral. Families should budget for this separately from the Harmony Funeral Care package and confirm the expected amount directly with the pastor or church.
Which Christian funeral package should you choose?
- Choose direct cremation if the family does not require a wake.
- Choose a one-day funeral-parlour wake if the family wants the lowest-cost wake option; a one-day wake at an HDB void deck does not cost less, since the minimum rate still applies.
- Choose a funeral-parlour package if the family prefers an established venue.
- Choose an HDB void-deck package if proximity to home and community is important.
- Choose a church arrangement if the deceased's church approves the venue and service.
- Request a private-property quotation if custom tentage and site planning are needed.
No option is inherently more respectful or meaningful than another; the right choice depends on your family's circumstances and preferences.

What families commonly overlook when comparing Christian packages
In Harmony Funeral Care's experience, families sometimes compare only the headline package price. The material differences are often the venue, number of wake days, casket, tentage, transport and services treated as optional. We recommend comparing written quotations item by item before confirming the funeral.
Families should also confirm whether church, pastor, venue and government charges are included or payable separately.

A one-day wake at a funeral parlour is also available and priced individually; contact us for a customised quote. Direct cremation without a wake starts from $1,380. These are Harmony Funeral Care's published starting prices, last reviewed on 24 September 2026, and every family receives a written, itemised quotation before confirming the service.
What is included in the Christian funeral package price?
The package covers 24-hour funeral assistance, an assigned funeral director, collection and transportation of the deceased, care of the deceased, a casket, wake setup, church and pastor coordination, pallbearers, the hearse, and final-day service coordination. See what is included for the full breakdown, since exact inclusions can differ between the funeral-parlour and HDB void-deck options.
What does 'nett' mean on this page?
"Nett" means the price you pay, with no separate GST or service charge added on top. "From" means the lowest currently available price for the stated package, venue and duration. Third-party, venue, government and family-selected charges may still apply where identified in the quotation.
Is a pastor included in the package price?
Harmony Funeral Care can help the family explore a suitable pastoral arrangement if one is needed, but we do not guarantee a free pastor. Most families provide the pastor with a love gift or honorarium as a genuine, commonly expected cost separate from the funeral package. Availability, denomination and the expected amount should be confirmed directly with the pastor or church.
Can the wake be held at a church instead of a funeral parlour or void deck?
Yes, subject to the church's own approval, availability and venue rules. Church-related charges are set by the church, not by Harmony Funeral Care, and are confirmed separately.
Which is cheaper: a funeral parlour or an HDB void-deck wake?
A funeral parlour is generally the lower-cost option, starting from $3,380 nett for a wake of two or more days, with a one-day wake priced individually on request. An HDB void-deck wake starts from $4,360 nett, and this is a minimum rate that applies whether the wake runs one, two or three days, so a shorter void-deck wake does not cost less. Overall cost still depends on wake duration, tentage, transport and any extras selected. See our funeral parlour versus HDB void-deck comparison for the full picture.
Is a one-day Christian wake available, and is it cheaper?
Yes, a one-day wake at a funeral parlour is available; contact us for a customised quote. This lower-cost option is not available at an HDB void deck, where the minimum rate of $4,360 nett applies whether the wake runs one, two or three days.
Can the Christian funeral package be customised?
Yes. A complimentary memorial photo montage is included at no additional cost with every package. Families can also adjust the casket, add a live-stream, request additional floral arrangements or extra memorial keepsakes, extend the wake, or add catering, subject to each item's own cost. All optional additions are shown separately in the itemised quotation.
Is the cremation fee included in the package price?
The government cremation fee set by NEA (currently $100 for an adult, $50 for a child under 10, at Mandai) is charged separately from the Harmony Funeral Care package price. See what may cost extra for the full list of separately charged items.
Does Harmony Funeral Care offer direct cremation without a wake?
Yes, direct cremation without a wake starts from $1,380. This suits families wanting a simple, one-day arrangement without a multi-day wake.
