Best flowers to send for condolences : FAQs
What is appropriate etiquette for sympathy flowers?
If you have never sent flowers for condolences, you may not be aware of proper sympathy flower etiquette. When selecting different types of flowers for your bouquet, opt for soft and subtle tones like light pinks, whites and creams. Bright flowers are great for adding a pop of colour, but we recommend doing this sparingly. It’s best to send sympathy flowers as soon as you’re aware of the death, instead of later when things have calmed down.
How to write a condolence message on your sympathy flowers?
It’s never easy finding the right thing to say when someone has passed. Here are some sympathy message examples of what you can write in your card:
We are sorry to hear about the passing of [name]. Please know we are thinking of you and your family during this difficult time.
[Name] will be sorely missed, but never forgotten.
We are so sorry for your loss, may [name] rest in peace.
Sending you lots of hugs during this difficult time.
We’re so sorry for this terrible loss. Let us know if there’s anything we can do.
