Do you give a donation for a luncheon provided for funeral service attendees by the Church?

The church might tell you what the expected donation is if a funeral luncheon is provided by the parish/church community. In the case of my mother-in-law, we were told $5 per person. For 75 people, this was $350, but we rounded up to $500 since we could afford it, and my in-laws were devout parishioners.

Do Mormons give money at funerals?
It isn't a set tradition for members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) to give money at funerals, but some do. It depends on their personal preference and the desires of the deceased. Many Mormons these days choose to request a donation to a charity or foundation in lieu of flowers. Others ask for help with funeral expenses rather than flowers. It all depends on what the family wants. As a Church, Church buildings and leaders are offered to hold and conduct the funeral at no charge, and each congregation has a women's organization that offers to provide a luncheon for the funeral attendees, also at no charge. All a Mormon family needs to pay for is the preparation of the body, casket, and burial.

A party after a funeral has no specific term. The gathering before or during a funeral is called a wake. A wake is usually at the home of the deceased with the body present.
