Cheap Funeral Flowers, from Sprays to Funeral Baskets
Saying goodbye shouldn't depend on how much you can spend. Here you'll find a selection of elegant funeral flowers at our lowest prices, each made by hand by a local florist and delivered to the funeral home, the church or the family.
Funeral tributes at prices you can afford
Funerals come with many costs, and flowers are often bought in a hurry, in the middle of grief, by people who have never had to order funeral flowers before. We wanted a clear, honest range of funeral flowers that families can afford without guessing what they will end up paying. Every design on this page shows a starting price before you click, the card message is included, and the only extra is one delivery charge of £12.49 per order, added at checkout.
The funeral tributes here are real pieces, not cut-down versions. A sheaf in this range is the same hand-tied sheaf made for any service; a spray is the same teardrop of flowers on a hidden base. What keeps the price down is the choice of flowers and the size, not the care that goes into them. All the tributes we offer are carefully prepared and delivered by professional florists working near the funeral. We don't send flowers by post or pack them in a box, and we only make funeral and sympathy flowers, not wedding flowers, gifts or corporate arrangements.
If you are buying flowers for a funeral for the first time, it helps to know who usually sends what. The closest family normally chooses the main tribute for the coffin. Other relatives often send a sheaf or a larger tribute, grandchildren a posy, and friends, neighbours and colleagues a sheaf, a basket or flowers for the family's home. Flowers for funerals don't have to be expensive to be right; funeral flowers can help say what is hard to put into words, whatever their size. If you are choosing for someone in particular, our collections of funeral flowers for mum, dad, nan, grandad and a man include designs at these same prices.
What each tribute costs
These are our starting prices for the Standard size. The Preferred and Elegant sizes add more stems of the same flowers for a fuller look, and cost more.
| Tribute | Examples in this range | From |
|---|---|---|
| Sympathy plant | White orchid, pink orchid, flowering hydrangea | £32.99 |
| Funeral sheaf | White, pink | £43.99 |
| Funeral basket | White, pink | £43.99 |
| Sympathy bouquet | White, lilac | £43.99 |
| Arrangement in a container | White, red and white, lilac | £44.00 |
| Funeral spray | Purple, yellow and white | £49.49 |
| Funeral posy | Small white posy, pink, posy for a man | £49.50 |
Within each type there is some range. Our sheaves run from £43.99 for the white and pink designs, through £49.49 for the red rose sheaf, the natural hand-tied sheaf, the purple tied sheaf and the yellow and white sheaf, to £54.99 for the sunshine yellow and blue and white sheaves, which include hydrangea and anthurium, or freesia and gerberas. Our sprays start at £49.49 for the purple and the yellow and white designs, and the white and pink and white versions, with roses and lilies, start at £54.99.
Our arrangements, baskets and bouquets sit close together in price. The pink lily and rose vase starts at £43.99, the memorial candle arrangement at £44.00, and the lilac basket, which comes in one size, the soft pastel and the white and green designs at £49.49. Flower arrangements for funerals like these can stand at the service or the wake, and arrangements delivered to the wake can then go home with the family.
Our flower delivery prices are just as simple. To work out the full cost, add £12.49 to the price of the tribute. A white sheaf comes to £56.48 in total, and a sympathy plant sent to the family comes to £45.48. There are no service fees on top.
Are cheap funeral flowers worth it?
Yes, as long as the money goes on flowers rather than on show. A tribute does not need to be large to be noticed. At a funeral, the family sees the funeral flowers laid out after the service and reads every card, and what stays with them is who sent something and what they wrote, not how many stems it had. A small, well-made sheaf or posy with a kind message means as much as a far bigger display.
What matters is how the flowers look on the day, and that they are fresh and properly made. Ours are made by a florist near the funeral and delivered by hand, so they arrive looking their best rather than after days in transit. Florists use the freshest seasonal flowers available. If a particular flower is out of season or sold out, the florist will use one of the same colour and style, of equal or greater value, so the look you chose stays the same.
It also helps to think about what happens to funeral flowers after the service. Sprays and sheaves are usually left at the graveside or in the crematorium's garden of remembrance, where the family can see them in the days that follow. Baskets, arrangements in a container and plants are often taken home by the family, so a modest basket can end up giving more lasting comfort than a large tribute that stays behind.
You can also order with confidence. If your flowers arrive damaged, very different from what you ordered, or not at all on the date you chose, contact us within 7 days with your order number and, if you can, a photo, and we will arrange a replacement or a refund. If the florist has not started making your order and you need to cancel, we will refund you in full.
Ways to spend less on funeral flowers
- Choose the Standard size. The larger sizes add more stems of the same flowers. Standard is the design in the main photo, and it is a complete tribute in its own right.
- Pick a sheaf. In UK floristry, the sheaf is a classic tribute: a flat-backed bunch of flowers with the stems left showing, tied with ribbon. It is among our most affordable funeral tributes, and many families lay it at the graveside afterwards.
- Look at hardy flowers. Carnations, chrysanthemums, gerberas and lisianthus are full, long-lasting and usually less costly than large lily heads. Our yellow and white spray, made with carnations, lisianthus and anemones, starts at £49.49.
- Send one tribute, not two. If you were planning a tribute for the service and a bouquet for the house, choose one. A basket or a floral arrangement in a container works for both: it can stand at the service or the wake, then go home with the family.
- Put several tributes in one order. Delivery is one charge per order to one address. If you and your brother or sister each want funeral flowers delivered to the same place, add both tributes to one order and you pay for delivery once.
- Look at an alternative to a wreath. A wreath is a circle of flowers, a symbol of eternal life, and ours start at £60.49. If that is more than you want to spend, a round posy from £49.50 keeps the circular shape on a smaller scale, and a sheaf from £43.99 lies flat at the service just as a funeral wreath does. Both sit happily beside the wreaths and sprays from other mourners.
- Consider a plant for the family. If the family has asked for family flowers only, or for donations to a charity, a sympathy plant for their home costs from £32.99 and keeps flowering long after cut flowers have faded.
If the family would rather not receive flowers at the service, you can still have sympathy flowers delivered to their home a week or two later, when the visitors have gone. Condolence flowers delivered then are often remembered most, and a bouquet or plant usually costs less than most funeral tributes.
Sharing a tribute with family, friends or colleagues
Sharing one tribute is one of the simplest ways to send something lovely for less. Grandchildren often club together for a posy, and work teams for a basket or a larger tribute. Five colleagues sharing a white funeral spray at £54.99, plus £12.49 delivery, would each pay about £13.50.
When a group is sending flowers, decide who will order flowers for everyone, agree on the design and the budget, and collect the money before you buy. The card is where you send your message of sorrow and remembrance, so write it from everyone, for example "With deepest sympathy, from all your friends at the surgery" or "Grandad, we love you and we'll miss you. From all your grandchildren". The card message is limited to 200 characters, so a group message works best kept short and signed with the group's name rather than every name. Our guide on what to write on funeral flowers has more ideas.
Why a coffin spray or funeral wreath costs more
Four things make the difference between a cheaper and a more costly tribute. The first is the number of stems. A coffin tribute is about 3ft long and needs far more flowers than a sheaf, which is why our white design starts at £65.99. The second is the flowers themselves: roses and lilies cost more than carnations and chrysanthemums, and some blooms, such as calla lilies, cost more again. The third is the shape. A funeral wreath is built on a ring base, with every flower placed by hand to keep the circle even, and our white funeral wreath starts at £60.49, with the laurel-based wreath at £71.49. The fourth is time: a casket spray, a wreath or a large arrangement takes a florist much longer to make than a tied sheaf.
So if you want to send funeral wreaths or the main coffin tribute, expect to spend a little more, and see our funeral wreaths and coffin sprays. If the closest family is sending the casket spray, other relatives and friends rarely need to match it. A smaller tribute alongside it is the normal custom. Choose from our range of funeral sprays and sympathy flowers today, or browse sheaves, posies and baskets. Our guide to how much funeral flowers cost goes into more detail.
We don't make letter tributes such as MUM, DAD or NAN, hearts, crosses, cushions or pillows, so there is no price per letter to work out here. We don't make dedicated urn tributes either, but a small posy sits well beside an urn at a cremation or a memorial; our guide to flowers for a cremation explains the options.
How funeral flower delivery works
As an online funeral flower shop, we pass each order to a local florist near the address, who makes it by hand and delivers it, so you get professional floristry and flower delivery from the same local shop. You can place an order online anytime, and delivery options are kept simple: one address per order, one charge. At checkout, tell us where the flowers should go (a funeral home, a church or a family address), choose your preferred delivery date, and tell us the funeral time if you know it. The florist receives the delivery date and time of the service with your order. There is also a space for notes to the florist, for example where to find the chapel of rest. Before you order, check delivery details with the family or look up the funeral director's address in the funeral notice, and confirm the delivery day suits them. If you are the one who has to organise funeral flowers for the whole family, it can help to coordinate delivery so that every tribute arrives at the same place before the day.
Our flower delivery service runs Monday to Saturday, and the earliest date you can choose is tomorrow, so next day flower delivery is possible whenever tomorrow is not a Sunday or a bank holiday. We don't deliver on the same day, and we can't offer a set delivery time window, so schedule your delivery for a day before the funeral rather than the morning of it. For a funeral on a Monday, choose the Saturday before. We can deliver to almost any destination in the UK; the one exception is AB10 postcodes. If you need flowers for a funeral this week, place your order early, ideally as soon as you know the date.
We provide professional flower delivery across the UK through local florists, and flower deliveries can go to funeral directors across the country. Flowers for funerals are usually best sent there rather than to the church, because they bring everything together on the day. Most are happy to receive the funeral tribute in advance and will place flowers on or beside the coffin before the service. For a cremation, funeral flower delivery works the same way: funeral flowers delivered in advance travel with the coffin to the crematorium, and are usually laid out there afterwards for the family to see.
All our flower deliveries cost the same: £12.49 per order to one address, whatever you order. It is not free, and it is never hidden: you see it in your basket before you pay on a secure Stripe page.
Questions about ordering funeral flowers online
How much should I spend on funeral flowers?
There is no right amount. Close family often spend more on the main tribute, while friends, neighbours and colleagues usually send something smaller. With us, a sympathy plant starts at £32.99 and a sheaf at £43.99, plus £12.49 delivery per order.
Do cheap funeral flowers come with free delivery?
No. Every order has one delivery charge of £12.49 to one address, added at checkout. Putting several tributes for the same address in one order means you only pay it once.
Can I order directly, or do I need to go through the funeral director?
You can order directly with us and have the flowers sent straight to the funeral home. Ask the family for the address and the date of the funeral, and add any notes for the florist at checkout. You can also request delivery to a church or the family's house.
Can I send funeral flowers today?
You can place your order today, but we don't offer same-day delivery. The earliest is next day delivery, on any day from Monday to Saturday.
Are cheaper tributes smaller versions of the real thing?
No. The Standard size of each design is the one in the main photo. Our lower prices come from the choice of flowers and the type of tribute, such as a sheaf instead of a wreath, not from cutting back on a design.
Do cheap funeral flowers last?
Yes. Carnations, chrysanthemums and lisianthus are among the longest-lasting cut flowers. A basket or arrangement taken home after the funeral will last longer if you keep it topped up and stand any cut flowers in clean water, and a plant can be kept for months.
