What styles of flowers are most appropriate to send to a funeral service or memorial service?

In Southern California, the most popular floral designs for funeral and memorial services are easel sprays (delivered in stands), container arrangements in either baskets or urns, and planted gifts of live green and blooming plants.  

Which flowers does your florist recommend to delivery to a cemetery graveside funeral?

We recommend either easel sprays which are tall free-standing designs or basket arrangements which will set securely on the ground. Vase arrangements, especially those designed in clear glass, are best sent to residences. 

What types of sympathy flowers and gifts does your flower shop recommend to send to a home or residence?

There are many different choices to be sent to a family's home. Among the most popular are:

• Fresh arrangements in containers or vases
• Live plants or planted basket designs including blooming plants
• Fruit and gourmet baskets 

Which funeral flowers are usually sent from family members?

Family members purchase the casket piece, standing tributes like easels, hearts or crosses and small floral accents which can be placed inside the casket lid, such as pillows or rosaries. For a memorial service, the family will generally choose a design to coordinate with a cremains urn if one is present.

What are the most appropriate funeral designs to be sent from a business?

For funeral services, we find the most popular sympathy arrangements from businesses to be easel sprays.

Do families usually take the flowers home after a funeral?

Families will usually take home arrangements appropriate for a residential setting - baskets, vase arrangements and designs in containers - as well as planted gifts. Larger designs, especially those made on easels, are most commonly taken to the cemetery.

Should the flowers be delivered to the mortuary, church or cemetery for the service?

If the family is holding a visitation at a funeral home, we recommend the flowers be delivered there. Their presence is a comfort to the grieving family and will add a touch of beauty during a difficult time. Funeral home staff members then transport the flowers to the church or service location and then on to the cemetery if appropriate.
