Choosing Sympathy Flowers
Sending sympathy flowers is a thoughtful way to acknowledge a loss and offer support when words are difficult to find.
One of the most common questions we receive is "should flowers be sent to the family home or to the funeral service?".
Both are appropriate and the decision usually depends on the circumstances and the family's wishes.
Often, soft whites, greens and neutral tones are chosen for sympathy flowers because they feel calm, understated and respectful.
However, some families prefer flowers that reflect the personality of the person being remembered.
At Susan Avery, sympathy flowers are designed with sensitivity and simplicity in mind.
We focus on quality flowers, balanced compositions, and an approach that feels appropriate to the occasion.
Also, customers ask "what message should be included with the flowers?"
In most cases, a short and sincere expression of sympathy is entirely appropriate and the best way to go.
Remember too that when sending flowers during a difficult time, the intention behind the gesture is often more important than the size or scale of the arrangement itself.
