You are probably considering what floral tributes would be appropriate for your loved one’s funeral. However, you may want to take a moment to consider how your tributes could be arranged into an eye-catching multi-level display around the coffin on your loved one’s final journey.

I can provide the following facilities to make your tributes highly visible. Please click on any image to see an enlarged version.

Large flat floral tribute

Large flat tributes can be carried at an angle.

Prominently positioned bouquet

Petit, sensitive bouquets can be
prominently positioned.

'Name' tributes

‘Name’ floral tributes can be held in elevated positions, appropriate support structures exist for either plastic or wire frames of any size.

A Cross or Spray of flowers can sit on top of the coffin

A floral spray or cross can sit on top of the coffin with wreathes positioned around it. I have left a space so you can see how I ensure that tributes remain in place inside my flower trays.


You may want to personalise your loved one’s funeral and I can help you by:-

A laminated photograph

Displaying your loved one’s name, enlarging a photograph to A3 and then laminating it. The photograph can be left with the flowers at the graveside or at the crematorium.

Using the flower arrangements to tell a story

Designing a layout of the floral tributes, that would feature the Family’s flowers prominently in the display. The image of the layout can tell a story, here you see a loving Dad who enjoyed a drink in the Anchor Inn, whose passing broke the heart of his extended family.

A steam engine floral theme

Creating a theme depicting your loved one’s occupation or interests, using my flower trays, with customised embellishments. This theme was created for a Steam Engine enthusiast.

A large number of themes are available from Teacher to Scaffolder, from Football Fan to Ski-jumper. Perhaps you have your own ideas and I will gladly discuss these with you and your family so the arrangement of your floral tributes more than satisfies your wishes. Wherever you live, I can design a unique layout and share these ideas with you either by e-mail, fax or face to face.

My main operating area is in Southern England, particularly London and the Home Counties, Hampshire, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Somerset. However, distance is not a problem and I have already helped families in Northern England in Leeds, Stoke, Manchester and Nottingham.

I have 21 foot by 7 foot space on my vintage lorry and will use my creative skills to bring some colour to a dark day.
