Funeral Planning – Floral Tributes and Sympathy Flowers

At Greenhaven Funerals, we believe that floral tributes and sympathy flowers are more than just decorations; they are a profound way to express love, respect, and remembrance for a loved one. Each flower carries its own symbolism, which can add a deeper layer of meaning to a funeral service.

For instance, lilies, often associated with funerals, symbolise the restored innocence of the departed soul, while roses can convey different emotions based on their colour – red for love, white for purity, and yellow for friendship. Chrysanthemums are another popular choice in many cultures, symbolising death and mourning, while in others, they represent rebirth.

Below you will find some examples of floral tributes and sympathy flowers that we offer. From heart shaped or circular wreaths, singled ended floral tributes or magnificent, double ended casket sheaths. Our florists are able to create something beautiful, in seasonal flowers that will reflect the personality of your loved one and will meet your budget requirements as well.

For more information on our range of floral tributes, please contact Greenhaven Funerals directly on: (03) 9569 0534 to discuss your specific needs.

Bring plants and flowers from your loved one’s garden:

If your loved one had a passion for plants or the garden, why not bring their favorite pot plants & hanging baskets to the chapel to decorate it.

Ask guests to bring flowers from their garden!

A beautiful idea is to ask mourners to pick a small bunch of flowers from their garden and bring the cuttings in a jar!  After the ceremony, they can take their flowers on to the venue where refreshments will be held to decorate the tables.
