The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) recommends burial whenever possible, however, the Church understands that in some areas, burial is illegal or extremely expensive. Also, if it was the will of the deceased to be cremated, the Church will not prohibit the family from doing so. In short, the Church highly recommends burial, but will not prohibit cremation.
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) may embalm their deceased loved ones if they choose to do so or if it is common in their culture. Mormons have very few unique death and burial practices, generally following whatever istraditional in the individual's family or culture.
The Mormon church does encourage burial, although cremation is permitted and is common among Mormons in Asian nations. Mormon funerals are often held in churches, mortuaries, or homes. It is cusomtary among Mormonsin the United States for a 'viewing' to be held prior to the formal funeral service, where guests can visit and offer support to the family. Mormons are often buriedwearing allwhite, and are buried with their sacred Temple robes if applicable. At the gravesite, a small dedication ceremony is held for close loved ones in which a prayer is said to bless the ground, the deceased, and the mourning family.
