Flowers

Whether your loved one is to be cremated or buried, floral tributes have traditionally been seen as a way of expressing love and respect for the deceased. There is a wide variety of floral tributes to choose from.

You may prefer a coffin top arrangement or a more modern tied sheaf. Whatever your preference, we can show you photographs of various examples and help you make the right choice.

If the funeral is a cremation, you may also wish to consider what you would like to do with the flowers after the service. Some families take the flowers to a family grave, others ask us to bring them back to our premises to be taken with the ashes for a burial should this be in the next few days.

Many people prefer to receive family flowers only and donations to charity in lieu of flowers and we are very pleased to collect those for you.

After about one month, we forward all the donations to your chosen charity and will let you know who sent a donation and the total amount donated. Most families choose a local charity or one relating to the life or illness of the deceased, but if you need any further help in the choice please ask us for advice.
