01

Identify Your Relationship with the Deceased

The type of flowers you choose often depends on your relationship with the deceased. Close family members typically choose more personal, intimate arrangements like casket sprays or heart-shaped designs. Friends or colleagues might opt for standing sprays or basket arrangements. 

02

Consider Symbolic Meanings

Different flowers and their colors have various symbolic meanings. For example, lilies symbolize restored innocence to the soul of the deceased. Roses can denote love, respect, or courage. Consider what message you want your floral arrangement to convey and choose accordingly.

03

Respect Cultural and Religious Traditions

Be mindful of the cultural and religious traditions of the deceased and their family. Some cultures and religions have specific flowers that are appropriate or customary for funerals. If you are uncertain, a simple and elegant arrangement is usually a safe choice.

FAQs

  • Are there specific flower arrangements recommended for funerals vs. sympathy flowers?

    Funeral flowers typically serve as a tribute to the deceased at their final farewell service. These arrangements are often sizable, formal displays, such as standing sprays or casket sprays, which offer a sense of grandeur and respect. These floral displays are usually delivered directly to the funeral home to be displayed during the service. On the other hand, sympathy flowers are often sent as a personal gesture to the grieving family. These are usually smaller bouquets or plants, delivered to the family's home, as a way to express condolences. Their purpose is not only to provide comfort and solace during a difficult time but also to symbolize life and growth amid sorrow. Both types of flowers play a significant role in the mourning and healing process, each serving a unique purpose.

  • Can you deliver my sympathy or funeral flowers directly to the funeral home or family's residence?

    Yes, we can deliver your sympathy or funeral flowers to any location within the Toronto city limits. This includes but is not limited to, funeral homes, places of worship like churches, or even directly to a family member's residence. We take great care in coordinating with the respective venue to ensure that your floral tribute arrives promptly, following any specific viewing or service times. Our team understands the sensitive nature of these occasions and strives to provide a seamless, respectful experience. Whether you're sending a large, formal arrangement to a funeral home, or a smaller, more intimate bouquet to a family member's home, we're here to assist every step of the way.

  • What is the etiquette for sending sympathy and funeral flowers?

    Choosing between sending flowers to the funeral home or sending a sympathy arrangement to the family's home is a personal decision, often influenced by your relationship with the deceased or their family. Some individuals may prefer to send flowers directly to the funeral home to be displayed during the service, serving as a visual tribute to the departed. This choice might be especially relevant if you had a close relationship with the deceased. On the other hand, some might choose to send a sympathy arrangement to the family's home following the service. This gesture is often preferred when the sender has a closer connection to the surviving family members, providing them comfort during their period of grieving. The intention behind both options is the same – to offer comfort, express condolences, and show support during a difficult time.

  • Can I include a personal message with my sympathy or funeral flowers?

    Yes, all of our sympathy and funeral flower arrangements come with the thoughtful option to include a personal message. This feature allows you to express your condolences, share fond memories or offer words of comfort in a truly personal manner. The message you choose to write will be carefully printed on a tastefully designed card. This card is then thoughtfully included with the flowers, providing a tangible keepsake for the recipients. Whether you're expressing sympathy, celebrating the life lived, or simply letting the bereaved know they're in your thoughts, this added personal touch can make your floral gift even more meaningful and heartfelt during such a difficult time.
