Someone we truly love and care about suddenly passes away. We feel so helpless and become unsure of how to make ourselves supportive to the other bereaved members. The trickiest emotion to express in words is showing sympathy or sorrow. As it is a time of intense sadness and misery, it can be difficult to decide – what to say or do? There are times when you want to sympathize with someone, but fail because of lack of the right words. However, a flower becomes the right medium for expressing your sympathy without even having to speak much.
Who can better understand the shortness of life other than flowers? Therefore, flowers become the symbol of our fragile lives and are perfect for expressing the need for moving on. Their sensitivity and frailty give us strength to deal with grief. However, all kinds of flowers are not suitable for all occasions.
Flower arrangements for condolences are different from usual bouquets. Flowers need to be arranged in such a manner so that they signify and express affection, care, kindness, and support. They should be comforting and consoling. The colors and flowers chosen for condolence flower arrangements are soothing as well as bright, which radiate hope to the bereaved members.
Flowers of sympathy can be ordered for various occasions, such as at calling hours, funerals, and graveyard burials. Memory Rings are also designed to deliver for funerals, and times of sorrow and pain. These are made of flowers, leaves, and ferns, and are arranged in a circular shape to symbolize eternal life after death. White or pale colored Roses and lilies are the most commonly used flowers for such times. Also, some flowers, such as white carnations, gladiolas, white daisies, and ferns are used. Soft twigs are also used in arrangements rarely.
It is better to send sympathy flowers to the family if you are unable to attend the funeral, as it will show your support in the times of grief.
