Finding the ideal flowers to send to a funeral service in Palm Beach, FL, can be difficult. For many people, choosing the specific flowers to include in the arrangement as well as the size of the arrangement to coordinate with other flowers and design elements of the church can be a challenge.
One popular option for family and friends to consider is a funeral wreath. This is a very traditional type of arrangement, but with the option to include specific flowers, both traditional and exotic, the wreath can be personalized to represent the deceased and celebrate their life.
The Wreath Size and Shape
Most funeral wreath designs are developed to allow the wreath to be mounted on a stand or a tripod. This makes it possible to display the wreaths throughout the church or area where the service is held. They can also be transported for the burial, or be used in a graveside service.
Most floral arrangements on stands can be ordered in small, medium or large sizes, with the stand being provided to match the size and shape of the wreath. While a traditional round wreath is always beautiful and a classic shape, a funeral wreath can also be designed in a heart shape, which is very popular, as well as in a cross.
The Flowers
There are some considerations when choosing flowers for a wreath in Palm Beach, FL, particularly if the ceremony is to be held outdoors. The heat can be difficult for some flowers, so always talk to the florist and note if the flowers are to be displayed outdoors. Roses, carnations and many types of the exotic or tropical types of flowers have a long life even in the sunlight in an arrangement while gerbera daisies and lilies tend to do better when indoors or in cool, shaded areas when outdoors.
