The faimily and friends of the young woman's loved ones will come together in Georgia this weekend to mourn and celebrate her short life, Us Weekly reports.

Sources  have revealed that the funeral will be held on Saturday morning, Aug. 1. It was originally scheduled for Thursday, July 30, but an insider revealed that certain family members couldn't make it that evening, prompting the rescheduling.

The services will take place at St. James United Methodist Church in Alpharetta, Ga. Those who were close to the only child of Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston will say their goodbyes before she is buried two days later.

Sources said that a private burial is scheduled for Monday, Aug. 3, in New Jersey. Bobbi Kristina, who was 22 years old at the time of her untimely death, is expected to be buried next to her iconic mother in Westfield, N.J.'s Fairview Cemetery. New Jersey native Houston, who died at the age of 48, was laid to rest in the cemetery after her February 2012 death.

Bobbi Kristina died on Sunday, July 26, after spending months in the hospital and in hospice care. An autopsy was performed this week to determine just what happened before she was found unresponsive in her Georgia home on Jan. 31, but early results provided few details. A representative for the Fulton County Medical Examiner's Office told Us that additional testing will be performed to help determine a cause of death.

Bobbi Kristina was remembered after her death by famous family members and friends. "She is finally at peace in the arms of God," the Houston family told Us Weekly in a statement, while Oprah Winfrey added, "Peace at Last!"
