Funeral Flowers

Sending flowers to a funeral is a fitting way to express your condolences when someone you care about experiences a loss. Choosing funeral flowers can be difficult, but at Kremp Florist, we can help you find the most appropriate flowers to show your respect for the deceased and sympathy for those closest to them.

We also specialize in creating sympathy bouquets and funeral flower packages for families seeking to pay tribute to lost loved ones, including floral sprays, baskets, wreaths, and bouquets. Since grief is often unexpected, we offer same-day delivery of funeral flower tributes to ensure that your flowers arrive in time for calling hours or memorial services.

In addition to selecting flowers, cultural and religious customs often influence choices in funeral arrangements. For instance, white flowers are commonly appreciated at Buddhist services, while red flowers may be inappropriate. Jewish customs, on the other hand, generally do not involve flowers, and charitable donations or food are preferred. If you’re ever uncertain, feel free to consult us or the funeral director.

I've been doing business with Kremp for more than 40 years. The only time they let me down was in relying on a florist in Greenwich, CT, and they fixed it. I will buy flowers from them until I die.

Funeral Flower Delivery Frequently Asked Questions

What Are the Best Funeral Flowers?

The best flowers to send for a funeral are those that reflect the deceased's personality or preferences. If they loved a specific flower, such as roses or lilies, consider an arrangement with those blooms. Colors also carry meaning, with white symbolizing peace and red conveying love. If you're unsure, choose a traditional arrangement in soothing colors.

Who Do I Send Funeral Flowers To?

Can You Take Funeral Flowers home?

Funeral flower arrangements, such as casket sprays or standing sprays, are often taken to the gravesite or donated. Some families may choose to press or preserve flowers as keepsakes, and small arrangements or potted plants are ideal options if the family wishes to take them home.

Are Lilies Funeral Flowers?

While lilies are commonly used in funeral arrangements, they are not limited to this purpose. Their elegant blooms and long-lasting beauty make them a suitable choice for other occasions as well. Lilies remain popular for funerals because they symbolize peace and the restored innocence of the deceased's soul.
