A simple guide to sending funeral or sympathy flowers HOME ARRANGEMENTS Intended for display in the home of the bereaved, home arrangements are all-occasion floral designs. While the color combination chosen may be bright and vibrant to reflect the personality of the deceased, these arrangements are more traditionally chosen in softer, or pastel colors. SYMPATHY BASKETS Sympathy baskets are appropriate for sending to either the family's home or for funeral services. They are generally designed in a triangular, fanned shape. This type of arrangement is appropriate in cases wherein the sender enjoyed more than a casual relationship to the deceased, or when chosen by, for example, the employer of either the deceased or the bereaved. SPRAYS Floral sprays may be ordered in a wide range of sizes and complexity. They are delivered to the funeral home, and are supported on a tripod during the services. The flowers in sprays generally fan out from a center point. FLOOR ARRANGEMENTS Floor arrangements are appropriate for sending to the funeral services.

CASKET SPRAYS These floral arrangements are usually ordered by immediate family. They can be requested in a variety of sizes. A full size spray covers the entire length of the casket top. A half size arrangement covers the closed portion of the casket lid for open casket funerals. CROSSES Very similar in construction to wreaths, cross arrangements begin with a cross-shaped base which is covered in flowers and suspended from a tripod. HEARTS & WREATHS These arrangements are built upon a circular base. The base is generally completely covered in flowers, and is then suspended from a tripod. They may instead be comprised of a natural wreath, such as grapevines, or a satin-covered base, with fresh flowers added. Wreaths are appropriate for funeral services because a circle signifies eternal life. click on an arrangement of your choice for more information
