A funeral flower basket is a formal floral arrangement designed for display at a funeral, wake, memorial or celebration of life. Depending on its construction, it may be elevated on a stand or placed on the floor near the casket, guest book, altar, photograph display or other memorial area.
Unlike a standing spray, which is normally built on a flat easel form, a funeral basket is arranged in a container. Its dimensional shape allows the flowers to be viewed from several angles and gives funeral-home staff flexibility when placing it within the room.
A funeral standing basket is arranged in a basket or container and elevated on a stand. Its added height creates a prominent presentation suitable for placement near the casket, altar, entrance or memorial display. Standing baskets are often selected when the sender wants a substantial tribute without choosing a traditional easel spray.
A funeral floor basket is designed to rest directly on the floor or on a low display pedestal. These arrangements provide fullness and color at the base of the casket, photograph display, guest-book table or service area. They can also complement standing sprays, wreaths and other family-selected arrangements.
Traditional funeral baskets feature a balanced mix of flowers arranged in a dignified, service-appropriate style. They may be delivered to funeral homes, churches, chapels, graveside services and memorial gatherings.
Consider the person's favorite colors, personality, faith and relationship with the sender. You may also coordinate the basket with the colors chosen by the immediate family or select a design that communicates a particular sentiment.
Roses, lilies, carnations, chrysanthemums, hydrangeas, orchids, snapdragons and seasonal accent flowers may be used to create a funeral basket. The exact flower varieties depend on the selected arrangement, season and current availability.
If a specific flower is unavailable, our designers may make a thoughtful substitution while maintaining the arrangement's overall color palette, value, shape and dignified presentation as closely as possible.
Funeral baskets are appropriate from nearly any person or group wishing to send flowers to the service. Their flexible placement makes them suitable for immediate family, extended relatives, friends, neighbors, coworkers, employers, religious congregations and community organizations.
Funeral baskets may be sent by:
Casket flowers are traditionally selected by the immediate family because they rest directly on the casket. Funeral baskets can be sent by anyone and are positioned elsewhere within the service area.
A funeral basket can be personalized to reflect the life and personality of the person being remembered. Depending on preparation time and availability, personalization may include:
