The body is kept in the house for seven days before cremation and during the six evenings, monks come and pray. A picture of the person who has passed away can be found on the coffin.
This varies from country to country, denomination to denomination. However, the presence of monks at a Buddhist funeral is nearly universal. Also, the wearing of white clothes among the mourners is very widespread.
The rituals of a Buddhist funerals vary with the tradition (Theravada, Mahayana, Tibetan) and sect. The social aspects (dress, interaction, meal) of the funeral depend on the congregation and the country or cultural group they are in (an American Buddhist funeral might be more like other American funerals than Chinese funerals) If you are attending such an event call the funeral home if one is being used or a relative who is Buddhist to get the details of what goes on. If you are only going as a social thing (coworker etc.) go but plan on getting no freebies.

Buddhism has adapted to different cultures in different places; it did not start out with any particular rituals around death -- since it was an anti-ritual sort of religion. However, different cultures have different customs. If attending a funeral of an American Buddhist you should wear what Americans wear to funerals. Aside from that, you would be wise to ask a member of the family, the Buddhist group, or a close friend of the deceased for advice.
