When it comes to expressing your sincere sympathy to a loved one, flowers and mourning cards are the first choice. Flowers are the easiest way to express your sympathy. A few sincere lines in a card let the mourner know that they are supported and not alone.
Colorful bouquets are avoided, although these can also be a reminder of the cheerfulness of the deceased. However, we concentrate on the classic, discreet bouquet to express our sympathy with funeral flowers.
What flowers are suitable for a funeral?
First of all, white flowers are ideal to express condolences. White lilies, white roses, bright chrysanthemums, peonies, tulips and hydrangeas are appropriate flowers to send to a grieving person.
Cream colored flowers are also allowed. You won't put your foot in it with them. All mourning flowers may also contain binding greenery, because greenery is very restrained and makes the bouquet even more lush and beautiful.
Our choice of flowers is based on seasonal white flowers. A high-quality funeral bouquet that you would like to send for a funeral may also contain a small splash of color, such as our classically tied Flower Bouquet Victoria with its dark blue hydrangea. It looks very classy and is perfect for giving to a grieving person.
