Choosing Funeral Flowers: A Thoughtful Guide to Saying Goodbye

Choosing funeral flowers can feel difficult, especially when you are arranging a farewell for someone you love. The right flowers can bring comfort, reflect a person’s character and help create a meaningful tribute.

At Elsa Brown Flowerstyle, we understand how personal every funeral arrangement is. Our florists are here to guide you gently through the options and create flowers that feel right for your family.

Which Funeral Flowers Should You Choose?

There are many different types of funeral flowers, including:

• Casket sprays, designed to rest beautifully on top of the coffin
• Funeral wreaths, a traditional symbol of love and remembrance
• Posies and baskets, suitable for sending from family, friends or colleagues
• Floral hearts and crosses, often chosen for a close family member
• Personalised name and letter tributes, including Mum, Dad, Nan and Grandad
• Tied sheaves, a softer and more natural alternative to a traditional arrangement

Your tribute does not need to be large or elaborate to be meaningful. A simple arrangement in a loved one’s favourite colours or flowers can often feel the most personal.

Making Funeral Flowers More Personal

Funeral flowers can be designed to reflect a person’s personality, hobbies, favourite season or treasured memories. You may wish to include their favourite rose, choose colours they often wore or create a bespoke tribute inspired by something that was important to them.

Our experienced florists will listen carefully to your ideas and offer honest, sensitive advice. We can also coordinate several arrangements so that the flowers look beautiful together during the service.
