Sympathy & Funeral Flowers

Express your condolences with grace. Elegant arrangements delivered to homes, funeral homes, and churches across Australia.

Types of Sympathy Arrangements

πŸ’ Hand-Tied Bouquets

The most common sympathy gift. White lilies, roses, and chrysanthemums arranged in a vase-ready bouquet. Suitable for sending to the family home. Typically $80-150. Include a heartfelt card message.

πŸ•ŠοΈ Funeral Wreaths

Circular wreaths symbolise eternal life. Traditional for display at the service. White and green are classic; some families prefer colourful wreaths that celebrate the person's life. $120-300 depending on size.

🌿 Casket Sprays

Large arrangements that sit atop the casket. Usually ordered by immediate family. Full-size sprays from $250-500. Half-sprays for the foot of the casket from $150-300. Consult with the funeral director on size.

Etiquette & Guidance

πŸ“ What to Write

"With deepest sympathy" is always appropriate. Keep it simple and sincere. Avoid clichΓ©s like "they're in a better place." A personal memory or acknowledgment of the person means more than any stock phrase.

⏰ When to Send

Flowers can be sent to the family home any time in the first two weeks. For the funeral service, arrange delivery to the venue at least 2 hours before. Some families request donations instead β€” always check the notice.

🌱 Living Alternatives

A potted peace lily or orchid is a lasting alternative to cut flowers. Memorial trees are increasingly popular β€” plant a native tree in their memory through organisations like Trees for Life.
