TLC's 'Best Funeral Ever': Golden Gate Funeral Home Hosts Christmas-Themed Ceremony (VIDEO)

WATCH: Christmas-Themed Funeral On 'Best Funeral Ever'

While most people think of funerals as a time to mourn the loss of a loved one quietly in black attire, folks at Golden Gate Funeral Home based in Dallas, Texas have an entirely different attitude.

In HuffPost TV's exclusive clip from TLC's new reality series "Best Funeral Ever" above, the death of a man who loved the holiday season inspires a Christmas-themed funeral featuring dancing, reindeer, snow, and a coffin on a sleigh.

As with any family gathering, the funeral preparation hits a couple of rough patches ... particularly when one Golden Gate employee refuses to don a gingerbread head for the occasion.

"Best Funeral Ever" airs this Sunday at 10 p.m. EST on TLC.
