How to choose the perfect funeral tribute
Choosing the Perfect Funeral Flowers: A Guide to Honouring Your Loved Ones
Losing a loved one is undoubtedly one of life's most difficult experiences. As we navigate through the pain of grief, finding a way to honour their memory becomes paramount and a huge comfort during a difficult time.
Funeral flowers offer a beautiful and heartfelt way to pay tribute to those we've lost, bringing comfort and solace during a time of mourning. If you're after guidance on selecting the perfect funeral flowers for your loved one, you've come to the right place. Here's a guide to help you through the process.
Understanding Different Tributes: Funeral flowers come in various forms, each carrying its own significance. From casket sprays to sympathy bouquets, there are tributes suitable for different aspects of the funeral service. Casket sprays adorn the casket itself, usually organised by immediate family, while sympathy bouquets can be displayed at the service or sent to the family's home as a gesture of support. More personal design such as letters can be designed to reflect the loved ones hobbies and interests.
Personalisation is Key: At Richards Floral Design, we understand that every individual is unique, and their tribute should reflect their personality, passions, and interests. That's why we offer personalised funeral flower arrangements that incorporate special items such as the loved one's favourite hat, ice skating boots, teddy bear, or any other meaningful belongings. These personalised touches add a deeply personal and heartfelt element to the tribute, ensuring it truly honours the memory of your loved one and their memory lives on in unique tributes.
Consultation and Customisation: We encourage our customers to reach out to us for a consultation to discuss their preferences and ideas for the funeral flowers. Our skilled florists will work closely with you to create a customised arrangement that perfectly captures the essence of your loved one. Whether you envision a traditional arrangement or a more unique and unconventional design, we're here to bring your vision to life. Drop us a call, pop in to see us or you can add special requests when ordering online with us.
Special Considerations for Certain Flowers: It's important to note that some flowers may require more notice to ensure the designs look their best. Flowers like lilies and chrysanthemums need time to open fully and reach their peak bloom, resulting in more vibrant and stunning arrangements. By providing us with ample notice, you can rest assured that your funeral flowers will be nothing short of extraordinary. A weeks notice for smaller tributes is fantastic, a couple of weeks is ideal for larger more bespoke designs although we can work with last minute ordering.
