Wreaths are ideal for official ceremonies, symbolizing eternity and the cycle of life.

Sprays and sheaves are often placed near the coffin or on the grave.

Bouquets offer a more intimate expression of sympathy, perfect for a personal gesture.

Tall arrangements are suitable for large spaces like churches.

• White: Purity, peace, and innocence - the most traditional color for mourning.

• Purple and mauve: Dignity and respect, often associated with religious ceremonies.

• Pale pink: Tenderness and affection, appropriate for mourning a woman or child.

• Deep red: Profound love and respect, for a very dear loved one.
