everything flowers from eFlorist Ltd

There is nothing more tragic than the loss of a child. A sweet, innocent life taken prematurely is both a lesson in appreciating every single moment we have on this earth, as well as a time of great sorrow and pain for the family of the child; a heart breaking tragedy from which many never recover.

While there is often nothing you can say or do to offer the comfort you wish you could at a time like this, sometimes simply giving a beautiful arrangement of flowers to the family will let them know, peacefully and unobtrusively, that you are thinking of them and love them.

Here at Eflorist we have carefully selected some special flowers for funerals that are particularly meant for children’s tributes. We hope that in some small way these funeral flowers will help you to express your sympathy and support to the family at this time of incredible loss.

For Christian funerals, we offer two very lovely small cross tributes. Our purple and white cross (Ref: FNR1005) features hydrangea, lilacs, mini calla lilies, orchids, and a bit of foliage and organza ribbon. It stands 46 cm high (or 18 inches.) Our other small cross (Ref: FNR1020) features chrysanthemums, roses, and Eustoma in white and pale pink. It is 61 cm wide (or 24 inches.)

Other tributes for children include a five point star with white Gypsophila and pink orchids, a teddy bear with white chrysanthemums and yellow freesias and roses, an angel Gypsophila, silver leaves, and white tulips, and a white and green spray including white calla lilies, freesia, and roses.

Choosing funeral flowers may seem like one of the hardest things you have ever had to do, particularly if you want to offer love and sympathy to the family of the deceased, but you aren’t really sure what would be appropriate.

Here at Eflorist, we offer a wide range of beautifully prearranged flowers for funerals so that no matter who you want to show your love and support to, you will be sure to find something appropriate here.

Under Funeral Tributes, on our left hand navigation bar, you will be directed to our sister page, http://www.flowersforfunerals.co.uk/. Here you will find funeral flowers in many different styles including sprays and sheaves, wreaths, cushions and hearts, posies and baskets, casket tributes, and more.

Our prearranged funeral flowers make your decision easier as every one of our arrangements is carefully hand prepared to offer high quality, fresh flowers the same day you order.

Posies and baskets are the perfect tribute for friends of the family to offer in sympathy and support. A beautiful choice is our contemporary posy, featuring gorgeous exotic looking greens, orange and gold roses, celosia, calla lilies, and hydrangea. A more classic choice is our  Posy Arrangement (Ref: PSY1001) featuring yellow, white, and cream flowers including roses, freesias and carnations, artfully arranged with various greens.

If you don’t see something you are happy with, our online florists also allows you to create custom tributes. Simply choose the Create A Tribute option on the left hand side of our funeral flowers site.

Flowers are not always given to mark a joyous celebration like a birthday or an anniversary. There are other, sadder occasions that are typically marked by the giving of a wreath or a bouquet. At funerals, flowers remind us of the good wishes of friends and loved ones, especially those who could not make it to the ceremony. They speak of the respect of people who knew the deceased and remind us all how  beautiful but fragile and ultimately brief life is.

There are two roads that can be taken when choosing flowers for a funeral. The first is to pick a traditional arrangement in traditional funeral flowers. White lilies are the most common choice and have been for generations. Lilac is also associated with grief and passing on, either as the lilac flower or simply the pale purple colour.

Poppies, particularly red poppies, have a special meaning for returned servicemen and women, and sending these as funeral flowers is a wonderful gesture of remembrance for anyone who served their country at war, even if it was many years ago.

If the departed man or woman had a favourite flower or even a favourite colour, you can choose to personalise their floral tribute that way. Select orchids for an orchid collector or yellow roses for someone who loved to receive yellow roses during their living years.  You can be sure that anyone who was enjoyed flowers will look fondly on a choice that shows you remember them so well.

When someone you know and care about loses a loved one, the most important thing you can do is to be there for them to comfort, listen, or simply hold their hand. But if you can’t be there in person during their time of loss, sending flowers can make a difference.

During sorrowful times, people need love and comfort from everyone they know. Showing you care even though you can’t be there will mean a lot to a friend or relative who is devastated by the loss of someone who meant the world to them.

Choosing flowers to send to someone who is mourning may seem a difficult task, but here at EFlorist we have created a wide variety of beautiful, classic, pre-made Sympathy Tribute arrangements for you so that all you need to do is make a selection.

Our Marie Curie hand tied arrangement featuring yellow roses and blue blooms is a good choice for those who have lost someone to cancer. The yellow and blue flowers symbolize the Marie Curie brand colours, and a donation is made to the foundation with every purchase of this bouquet.

For something simple, yet sweet, our Memories basket arrangement offers white and cream flowers including roses, germini, carnations, and chrysanthemums. The flower basket is included, and would look well on a table at a wake or simply on a windowsill.

We offer many other choices of both sympathy tribute flowers and funeral flowers. Special care and attention goes into every single arrangement done by professional florists, so that you can expect the very best.

Funeral tributes and remembrance flowers mark a poignant note of sympathy, respect and love. We created www.flowersforfunerals.co.uk to address such occasions of sombre memorial.
Remembering the passing of a loved one with flowers – no matter how far back in life – is something we treasure and treat with the utmost sympathy. The anniversary of a deceased beloved friend, sorely missed relative, or even a darling pet can be exceptionally difficult for any of us. Some people like to design their own floral tribute, in which case our team can chat through the details over the phone in your own time on 0800 0830 930 (+44 1794 526495 from outside the UK), or perhaps our easy online service may be a little more appealing.

Flowers for funerals mark an intense gesture of thoughtfulness, reverence and compassion. Choosing the right arrangement can sometimes seem daunting, but don’t worry if you – as the funeral organiser – aren’t quite sure of what you’d like. Just give our team a call and they’ll be happy to chat through the options available. Always on hand to make funeral flower decisions as straightforward as possible, our team can also create a theme – colour, bloom, shape of arrangement etc – at your behest.

For those attending a funeral, we recommend a quiet word with the funeral organiser to enquire as to any specific floral themes and motifs which may run through the occasion – our florists are sure to be able to create a sensitive, stunning piece.

With Christmas fast approaching, it can be difficult to think of presents for everyone. Even if you know a particular person extremely well, sometimes they can still be difficult to buy for. At eFlorist, we are passionate about flowers, and aim to provide our customers with the best arrangements available. We believe that a well-selected bunch can give any room a special touch.

Sending flowers can give someone a fantastic surprise. As all of our flowers are hand-delivered by a local florist, you can be sure that they will be received in the best possible condition. We have a variety of special arrangements available, including the Golden Star, which features stunning golden Cymbidium Orchids with Bear Grass, and the Christmas Cocktail, a striking assortment of colours made up of pink Roses and green Midori Anthurium.

As with all gifts, you will want to find an arrangement which is a solid match for the receiver. There are ways you can attribute flowers to a person’s personality:

�    If your special someone likes spending time in the outdoors, and takes a fairly simplistic approach to things, perhaps go for an arrangement of flowers which include soft greens and meadow flowers.

�    For people who are spontaneous and extravagant, it may be best to go for soft colours, combined with laces or ribbons for a bright and vibrant look.

�    For those who are focused on their family and enjoy a quiet life, perhaps try an arrangement which features a wide variety of classic flowers.

We can provide flowers for mothers’ day, flowers for funerals, as well as many other occasions.

Losing a family member or much-loved friend during any season is heartbreaking and incredibly difficult. We’ve set up www.flowersforfunerals.co.uk specifically to offer a poignant, appropriate, easy-to-use funeral flowers service without the need for navigation amongst other floral categories.

When a person passes away it can be hard to express in words the sympathy you feel towards their close friends and family. One way in which you can show such emotion is by sending flowers. Such offerings are traditional following a death and they are often greatly appreciated by mourners.

These days there are many flowers to choose from, and traditionally people send funeral flowers such as lilies and carnations. There are also a range of other flowers that are associated with funerals and it is possible to get sprays and sheaves, casket tributes, posies, baskets and funeral wreaths, among other things.

If you are unable to attend a funeral service or get to console the friends and relatives of the deceased in person, sending flowers online can be a good way of showing them you are thinking of them in their time of sadness. And because of the speed of services offered by companies such as us here at eFlorist, you do not have to wait to convey this message. As soon as you hear of their loss, you can get on the web and have a same day flower delivery service, as long as you place your order before 15:00 BST.

The comfort that such floral offerings provide can make a significant difference to mourners. They show that they are not alone and others are keen to ease the burden. Notes attached to such gifts also help to convey this sentiment, often containing heartfelt messages.

Giving sympathy flowers to a friend, relative, or even a mere acquaintance when they have lost a loved one is a loving, thoughtful gesture that will be truly appreciated. But choosing thoughtful sympathy flowers can be a bit difficult for someone people, especially if you did not know the deceased, or the family of the deceased. Here are some ideas for choosing thoughtful sympathy flowers.

First, find out from a friend or relative of the deceased if the deceased had a favourite flower, or if the family member you are sending the flowers to has a favourite flower. It really depends on the exact intent of the flowers.

If you are giving funeral flowers to be displayed in the funeral home or church, you should try to coordinate them with the flowers that the family have chosen, yet don’t purchase the exact same flowers. However, if you are purchasing sympathy flowers as a gift for a specific family member, you have more freedom because the flowers won’t be on display at the funeral.

Purchasing sympathy flowers online is easy because of the range of  funeral flowers available.

At eflorist we are a reputable florist shop delivery service, and when you order with us you can be sure the flower arrangement you order will be identical to your selection.

Whether you are the designated family member to purchase the official funeral flowers, or you simply want to purchase funeral flowers to express your condolence to a family, you may be a bit overwhelmed by the choices. Flowers for funerals should generally be formal, personal where possible, and in good taste.

Formal flowers, or traditional funeral flowers, are usually any of the following: white, red, or yellow roses, white chrysanthemums, red or white carnations, lilies, or calla lilies.

However, if you wish to purchase more personal flowers, you may want to ask family members what the deceased favourite colour or flower was. Almost any colour is available, though some colours like blue are harder to find. You can choose shades of purple that are similar to blue, like blue hydrangeas and irises. White roses or carnations can also be dyed blue by some florists.

Another way to choose more personal flowers for funerals is to choose a flower that is native the area where the deceased lived or was born, or a flower that they had growing near their house or in their garden. Or, if you don’t know what their favourite flowers were, you can always purchase the favourite flowers of the deceased mother, daughter, husband, or other significant family member.

Funeral flowers should always be in good taste. Never purchase or send flowers to a funeral that look extremely cheap, poorly arranged, or wilted or dying flowers.
