Floral Options
Sample design only — each arrangement is made fresh with seasonal flowers
Our Flower Arrangement Philosophy
We don’t use a catalogue of fixed designs — unlike some funeral directors. Instead, our florists create fresh, thoughtful arrangements from seasonal blooms, gently guided by your preferences.
Our standard pricing includes flowers from trusted local florists who craft with care and beauty.
What Kind of Arrangement?
We usually ask: are there any colours or seasonal flowers you have in mind?
Popular choices include:
Multi-coloured
Whites and creams
Native flowers, usually for a man
What Happens to the Flowers Afterwards?
The arrangement is yours to keep, if you wish. Some families divide it into smaller bouquets for guests to take home.
Choosing a Florist
Some families prefer a florist they already know. Others like to meet someone local in person — we can suggest options.
Most prefer us to handle the flowers directly, which we’re happy to do.
Greater Sydney & Illawarra – Urban Flower
Urban Flower create elegant arrangements and source some of their blooms from the Central Coast.
For long-stemmed roses — often chosen for the coffin — they use imported roses from Ecuador.
More importantly, several team members have been with them for years. That experience shows in the quality of their work. You can see their approach to floristry on their website, but their Instagram page has recent arrangements.
Central Coast & Lower Hunter – Olivieri’s Florist
We’ve worked with Olivieri’s for many years, including through another funeral organisation.
What’s special is that they grow many of their own flowers — so freshness is never an issue.
Their arrangements are made with quiet elegance. You can visit their website for a general sense of their work, or head to their Instagram page for more current designs.
