Learn How To Choose Funeral Flowers

Funeral & Sympathy Flowers is one of Dan's Specialties.

Dan takes the time to listen, to learn about the person who has passed, their personality, their favorite flowers or colors, and what they meant to those around them. While designing, he keeps the person and their stories at the heart of his work.

From traditional casket sprays and standing sprays to custom funeral wreaths, Dan works closely with families to create a tribute that feels exactly right.

FUNERAL FLOWER GUIDE

Prefer to shop by Color Palette?

The immediate family members usually decide on the casket spray, standing sprays, wreaths, and altar arrangements. A unified palette ties these pieces together. It provides a polished, intentional backdrop that brings a sense of order and calm.

Agreeing on a color palette allows extended family, friends, and coworkers to order independently while ensuring their final pieces will coordinate perfectly on the day of the service.

Half-Size Casket sprays rest on the lower portion, covering roughly 3 feet of the casket. It is best for open-casket viewings. Full-Size Casket Sprays extend across the entire length of the lid.

An Urn Wreath is a beautiful way to create a meaningful focal point for a cremation service. This specialized floral arrangement gracefully encircles the base of the urn, highlighting its presence on the altar or presentation table. By framing the vessel in flowers, it transforms the display into a dignified, prominent tribute that beautifully honors your loved one's memory. Typically the immediate family member(s) order the urn wreath.
