Funeral floristry: funeral baskets, bouquets, wreaths
Funeral floristry is a special type of floristry, which is intended to express condolences to the relatives of the deceased, as well as to honor the memory of him with the help of flowers. Flowers at the time of farewell play a deep emotional and symbolic role, helping loved ones express their feelings of grief, the bitterness of loss and eternal memory of the deceased.
Funeral flower arrangements are not just a decorative element, but a way to convey empathy and the last respect for the memory of the deceased. The number of flowers in a funeral arrangement should be even, which symbolizes the completion of the life cycle. Funeral wreaths, baskets and bouquets are ordered not only for the day of the funeral, but also for 9 and 40 days after death to honor the memory of the deceased.
