No casual wear
It is considered sheer disrespect to wear informal attire on a funeral ground. During this sacred moment for the dead, the grieving family members are always clad in mourning clothes, and you need to look the same. Wearing casual attire such as a pair of jeans and sneakers is not only improper as can be but also an indirect way of expressing a lack of empathy to the family.
