Funeral Flowers - A Guide by Van Arthur Florist

If you are looking to order flower tributes for a funeral, it can be a difficult and emotional time. Here are some guidelines to help you order the appropriate and meaningful floral tributes:

1. Consider the type of tribute: There are many types of floral tributes to choose from, such as wreaths, sprays, baskets, and casket sprays. Consider the size of the tribute and where it will be placed during the funeral service.

   Shop Funeral Wreaths

   Shop Funeral Sprays

   Shop Baskets

   Shop Casket Sprays

   Shop Funeral Sheaves

   
    
2. Think about the flowers you'd like to include: Consider the personality and preferences of your loved one. If you knew them well, you can choose flowers and colors that were their favorites. If you did not know them well, you can choose classic flowers and colors such as white lilies, roses, or carnations.
    
3. Find out the details of the funeral home; typically we deliver funeral tributes directly to the funeral home/funeral directors who can take care of the tributes and transport them to the funeral and finally lay them down in the memorial area following the ceremony.
    
4. Place your order early: It's important to order your tribute early so that we have enough time to create it. Depending on the size and complexity of the tribute, it may take several days to create. If you're in need of a tribute in short notice, you can always give us a call - we hold a large amount of stock and sundries and we can surely assist you with a suitable tribute.
    
5. Include a personal message: Consider adding a personal message to the tribute, such as a favorite quote or a message of love and support. This can add a personal touch to the tribute and make it even more meaningful. The most important part of your message is including who it is from so that the family can acknowledge the flowers received. 
    
6. Choose a reputable florist: It's important to choose a reputable florist who has experience in creating funeral tributes. At Van Arthur, we have many years of experience and hundreds of positive reviews. We promise that with us you're in great hands.
    
7. Consider the budget: Floral tributes can range in price, so it's important to consider your budget. Be upfront with your budget so we can work with you to create a tribute(s) that fits within your budget.
