What Flowers Should I Send to a Funeral?
The right flowers to send depend on your relationship with the person who died, where the flowers will be delivered, and whether you are sending them for the funeral service or directly to the family.
Standing sprays, wreaths, crosses, and traditional funeral baskets are generally sent to a funeral home, church, chapel, cemetery, or memorial service. Vase arrangements, plants, and basket gardens are often more appropriate when sending condolences directly to the family’s home.
DiBella Flowers & Gifts can help you select respectful funeral or sympathy flowers for delivery in Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, and nearby communities.
Choosing the Right Funeral Flowers
Friends, coworkers, neighbors, and extended family members often send a standing spray, wreath, funeral basket, or floral arrangement for the service.
Popular choices include:
- Standing funeral sprays
- Funeral wreaths
- Sympathy arrangements
- Traditional funeral baskets
- Crosses and other appropriate tribute designs
- Green plants
- Blooming plants
- Basket gardens
Casket sprays and flowers placed directly on or inside the casket are usually selected by the immediate family or the person making the funeral arrangements. Check with the family or funeral director before ordering one of these designs.

Choose an arrangement based on where it will be delivered and your relationship with the family.
Flowers for the Service or the Family’s Home
Send funeral flowers to the service when you want your tribute displayed during the visitation, funeral, or memorial. Provide the deceased’s full name, funeral-home or service location, date, and start time.
Send sympathy flowers, a plant, or a basket garden to the family’s home when you want to offer personal comfort before or after the service. A home delivery can also be appropriate when you cannot attend or learn about the service after it has taken place.
Flower colors do not have to be limited to white. Soft pastels, peaceful blues and purples, warm seasonal colors, or the person’s favorite colors may all be appropriate. Religious and cultural traditions should always be respected.
