When families ask how to make a casket spray, we always remind them: it’s not just about arranging flowers — it’s about crafting a tribute that speaks from the heart.

Step 1: Building a Meaningful Foundation

We start with a strong base. Using floral foam and trays, our florists secure each structure to ensure the arrangement lasts through the entire service. Whether you choose fresh or artificial casket sprays, stability and symmetry come first.

• Full casket sprays cover the entire casket, symbolizing completeness and eternal love.
• Half casket sprays leave space for viewing and are perfect for more intimate gatherings.

At this stage, we select soft, comforting tones like whites, creams, and soft blues — colors of peace you can find in our Sympathy Collection.

Step 2: Choosing the Right Flowers

Our team carefully picks flowers that carry meaning:

• Lilies for purity and renewal.
• Roses for eternal love and remembrance.
• Chrysanthemums for respect and mourning.
• Carnations for lasting devotion.

Every bloom is chosen not just for beauty, but for symbolism — making each funeral flower spray a personal reflection of life and love.

Step 3: Assembling the Spray with Heart

When people ask how to make a funeral flower spray, we always say: “Start with emotion.”
Our florists shape each spray like a gentle embrace — wide in the center, tapering at the edges, forming a calm, flowing design.

Once the base and focal flowers are placed, we weave in delicate greenery — ferns, eucalyptus, or ivy — to give it softness and natural grace.

We finish with a ribbon or card, personalized with the family’s message of farewell.
For those seeking ready-made tributes, explore Rest in Blooms Funeral Sprays — made with the same love we’d use for our own families.

Step 4: Artificial vs. Fresh — Choosing What Lasts

Fresh flowers bring scent and vitality to the ceremony.
But artificial casket sprays offer lasting beauty — ideal for memorials, transport, or outdoor services.

We often blend both, ensuring beauty that endures long after the farewell.
