Her casket was first seen arriving to Whigham Funeral Home in New Jersey on Monday. A gold hearse was carrying the casket and was accompanied by a police escort. This was the same color as the hearse that carried Houston's body in 2012. The vehicle was followed by black limos carrying Pat Houston, Uncle Ray Watson and Bobbi Kristina's uncle, Tommy Brown.

Several attendees of the service were also seen outside the funeral home.
On Saturday, the family held an intimate memorial service for Bobbi Kristina at St. James United Methodist Church in Alpharetta, Georgia. Many of Bobbi Kristina's relatives spoke at the service, attended by about 250 to 300 guests, including her uncle Tommy Brown and aunt Pat Houston, who sat near father Bobby Brown. Bobbi Kristina’s two best friends also took the podium together to give an emotional tribute to their friend.
The
program for the memorial service included a loving tribute from Bobby
Brown, who stood at the end of the service with his hand resting on the
closed casket, which was draped in pink, white and red flowers. A full
page in the program featured a smiling picture of Bobbi Kristina, with
the caption "I also will always love you. Love, Daddy," a reference to
Houston's popular song.
Bobbi Kristina died on July 26 at age 22 while in hospice care. Her death came months after she was found unresponsive in her Georgia home.
