Receptions and Catering

Food and beverage can be an important part of a celebration of life. We have the ideal setting to accommodate for various sized families and their guests. Our partnership with hospitality companies allows us to tailor the perfect experience for every family.

Catering Info

Roberts Family Funeral Home does not charge any fees for bringing catered food to a memorial or celebration of life. Please note that regardless of food choice, we are required by law to work with a licensed and insured caterer. We have trusted partnerships with local catering businesses and will provide recommendations as you plan.

Baked Goods

We allow for store-bought pastries and baked goods to be served. We ask that you designate someone to facilitate the coordination and setup for these items during the event.

Home-cooked Food

Due to regulations by the Minnesota Department of Health, we cannot allow home-cooked food items to be served.

Alcoholic Beverages

Alcoholic beverages are allowed within our funeral home, however we cannot purchase the alcohol on behalf of families or allow funeral home staff to serve alcoholic beverages. If you would like to have wine, beer, or liquor available for guests let us know and we'll discuss what options are available to you.

Facilities

We pride ourselves on making Roberts Family Funeral Home feel like a second home — a place for peace, comfort, and warmth. Our funeral home is equipped to provide you and your family only the very best.

Chapel

Our Forest Lake chapel comfortably seats about 200 people. This allows people to attend a service with everyone being able to hear and see with no obstructions. We are able to divide our chapel in half creating a more intimate space for families that prefer a smaller area. This space allows for families to display personal items tailored to their loved one's celebration.

Legacy Room

Whether you would like to use the room for a funeral luncheon or as a space for families to gather during visitations, you will find our Legacy Room accommodates seating for various sized groups. We work with a number of different catering companies to provide food and beverage options to families, including alcohol if desired.
