An elegant and reverent funeral cross photographed on a plain white field, the composition allowing every floral detail to be read with clarity. The main expanse is completely covered in pristine white chrysanthemums, each small bloom packed to produce a soft, pillowy surface that speaks of purity and gentle consolation. A scalloped border of deep purple satin ribbon frames the cross, its textured ruffle adding a stately line that both contains and complements the blooms. The vertical arm bears the personal message "MUM," fashioned from rich purple flower heads-possibly small roses or spray chrysanthemums-set carefully to form legible letters that sit in vivid contrast to the white background. At the point where the arms meet, a sophisticated central spray unites the palette: velvety deep violet roses mingle with paler lavender lisianthus (eustoma), their layered petals producing a tactile focal cluster. Variegated foliage-leaves with pale margins and darker centres-softens the edges of the spray, while occasional green berries introduce a subtle, organic texture. The overall colour story moves from clean white through soft lavender to deep violet, an arrangement that balances dignity, sorrow and affectionate remembrance. In soft studio light, the tactile density and gentle curves of the blooms feel almost like an embrace. This design is frequently chosen for chapel services, wakes, or graveside tributes across Marks Gate and nearby Ilford, offering a composed expression of condolence from a local florist experienced in sympathetic arrangements.

A tender, cross-shaped funeral tribute photographed against a clean white backdrop, its quiet dignity captured in soft, even light. The foundation is densely packed white chrysanthemums, each round floret pressed close to its neighbour to form a pillowy, cloud-like surface that reads as purity and calm. A ruffled satin ribbon in deep purple traces the entire outer edge, its gentle pleats creating a solemn frame that echoes the central purple tones. Down the vertical arm, the letters "MUM" are carefully formed from small, rich purple flower heads-likely spray chrysanthemums or compact eustoma-standing out with clear, heartfelt definition over the white field. At the centre where the arms intersect, a lush spray becomes the focal point: tightly furled deep violet roses blend with paler lavender lisianthus (eustoma), their velvet petals layered into a small, reverent bouquet. Variegated green foliage-leaves with lighter margins and darker centres-adds a soft, natural texture and is interspersed with tiny green berries for subtle contrast. The overall palette of pristine white and layered purples moves from pale lavender to intense violet, conveying both serenity and reverence. There is a faint, powdery floral scent suggested by the composition, like a spring garden after rain, and the tactile density of the blooms gives the piece a comforting weight. As a local florist familiar with Marks Gate and neighbouring Chadwell Heath and Becontree, I picture this tribute placed at a chapel or graveside to offer solace and quiet remembrance to family and friends.

    I ordered flowers for a funeral, and they were delivered the next day, just before the service. The people at the florals were very helpful in fulfilling my special requests. My family told me two weeks later how beautiful they still looked. I would use Funeral Flowers again whenever I need to send flowers or a plant.

    It was a sad moment arranging our mum's funeral. Even coming up with ideas for the wreaths and funeral posies was a problem. In the end, we just picked what we saw on this website. Everything turned out well.
