Personalised funeral tributes

Another of those blog posts you probably won't want to read, but this is what I love creating! Ultimately they are fabulous flower designs which are also someones last goodbye to a dear friend or family member. I thank and send condolences to each family and person who trusted us to create these designs for their loved one.
For the purpose of this post look at them as beautiful examples of what can be achieved with flowers.

Anything can be created with time and budget and these are some of the most popular and memorable to date.

Football is always a popular sport and football shirts in particular. Front or back designs, personal number and or name may be added.



Football scarves in any colour or design.


Football motif such as this for a Spurs Fan.


Motorbikes are also a popular hobby. 
We can recreate the loved ones own bike colours or personal design for you. 



Bike helmets are another option, any colour available.


Perhaps they were a fan of the TT?


Other sports including cricket,



Golf


and darts.


Perhaps fishing was the hobby of choice, we have sitting fisherman


or fishes, other varieties are available.


We can create most animals, from cats and in particular Bagpuss



Dolphins,


Horses heads, colours can be personalised,


ladybirds,


ducks,


parakeets (budgies and cocktails etc too)


rabbits,


and for an extra special design we can go 3D. This was a gorgeous design to work on many years ago, a beautiful faithful friend.



Perhaps Bingo was the favourite pass time?


Or playing the guitar? (Electric and acoustic versions)


Or maybe they were a train fan?



Some of the other beautiful designs that we have created are angels,


Batman sign,


Commando crest,


a handbag replica from a favourite bag,


Alcohol designs are very popular, Guiness, Pints and bottles,


3D planes


and of course items for nationalities. Irish flags


and shamrocks are always a popular choice. 


Personal designs only the family know about, a special request.


This one says it all


and finally a happy snowman, we all need one of these to cheer us up!


These are are snapshot of what we can create, they are not to everyones taste. We also design more traditional and green burial designs, look out for another post, but these are the more upbeat fun designs.
If you are ever in need of beautiful tributes we offer a free consultation where we can call on you at home. We bring photos and offer advice and let you talk through happy memories while deciding on your personal choice design.
Cards will be brought too, for you to write your own personal message.
We will sort on the day delivery out to all local funeral directors, liasing with them on time to make sure everything gets delivered in plenty of time.

Funeral Tributes

Today we take a look at the tribute side of our business. We don't very often talk about this for obvious reasons but it is all part and parcel of what we do.
We take great pride in our funeral designs. They are a persons last gesture to a loved one and we are always honored to be asked to create a display.

We can create all types of designs and these are just a fraction of what we have created over the years. Over the next few months we will be showcasing in more details the types and styles available but for now these will give an idea of what we can design.

A traditional loose wreath.
These come in differing sizes and can be designed in any colour available.


DAD 
The letters are priced per letter and can be anything appropriate. Just remember that 7 letters is the length of the hearse.
Letters are usually white but can be yellow or pink. They can have ribbon (any colour) edge, or foliage edged or just plain.
Ribbons can be personalized for a small extra cost.


Gates of heaven.
Usually in white with a spray in any colour to suit. Again ribbons can be added and personalized.


GRANDAD
Sprays are usually put on every other letter and can be co-ordinated with the ribbon or not as required


A handbag style design.
This was a personalized tribute for a lady who made bags.


Hearts.
These come in a variety of sizes and can be created in any colour combination required.


Ladybird


Loose Wreath
These colours were chosen from the ladies bridal bouquet


NAN


Open Heart
These come in two sizes and can be based as below or loose like the wreaths.


Loose wreath


Posy
Small posies are a token design and very popular from grand children


Oasis Sprays.

These can be small to full sized coffin sprays. They are our most popular design and can be created to any budget. They are good value for money as they have very few mechanics/base.
A good array of flowers are suitable for these designs


Coffin Spray
These are large oasis sprays. They sit on top of the coffin and our advice on size is no less than 3ft and no more than 5ft. 
If more than one design is to be placed then you can go smaller.


Posy pad

Starting at 10" up to 20". These are popular as memorial designs on anniversaries and birthdays


Open Sheaf
These are a take on the traditional gift bouquet. No cellophane and more natural. Basically a bunch of flowers with a foliage backbone. These are popular if flowers are to be taken to hospitals or homes after the funeral.


Posy


Snowman

We can create anything to suit the hobbies, jobs or happy memories that make saying goodbye more personal.
Did you love playing in the snow together?


Have a love for steam trains?


Oasis spray
One of our smaller spray designs but still very pretty.


If you are in the unfortunate position of needed tribute flowers please get in touch. You have a few options on how to proceed. 
You can get the family together and Sandra will call around with books and photos and sit with you all over a coffee and talk you through availability, price and suitability. Many families have used this option and it tends to be filled with happy memories and a chance to chat, as a family, about your lost loved one. There is never any rush, choosing of the designs will be in familiar surroundings and at a pace to suit you all.
Or you can phone or email and discuss your designs. Taking time to think through any options with other family before making your final choice.
Or we have an online shop and you can order direct through that. Click here

Everybody is different and we all cope differently in these situations so go with the option that suits you best. We are always happy to advise where needed but the final choice is always yours.

We offer thanks and condolences to all families who have asked us to create designs.
