White Funeral Basket Arrangement

What is in this white funeral basket

The florist builds the basket arrangement around roses and lilies, then adds carnations and daisy sprays to give it a soft, natural shape. Each lily brings large open blooms and a gentle scent, while the small daisy heads make the whole basket look light and fresh. Set in honey-coloured wicker, this white basket looks warm rather than stark, which suits both a funeral service and a home.

It comes in three sizes. Standard is £43.99, Preferred is £54.99 and Elegant is £65.99. The larger sizes add more stems of the same fresh flowers, so the design stays the same and the basket looks fuller.

A funeral tribute that goes home with the family

Many funeral flowers stay behind at the crematorium or the graveside. A basket is different: sent to the funeral director, it can stand at the funeral and then go home with the family, where each flower can be a comfort in the days that follow. Sent straight to the house, it is a gentle gift from a friend, a neighbour or colleagues who want to show they are thinking of the bereaved and their loved ones. It is also a thoughtful funeral gift to send when you cannot attend yourself. The wicker basket stays with them long after the flowers have finished.

White is always appropriate at a funeral. It speaks of peace and respect, and it sits quietly beside any other funeral tribute, whatever its colour. Every order includes a card, so you can add a short message and your name.

Order from our online shop

When you buy through our online shop, a local florist makes the basket by hand and delivers it to the funeral director, the church or other venue, or the home. Florist delivery runs Monday to Saturday from the next delivery day, with no deliveries on Sundays or bank holidays, and we cannot deliver to AB10 postcodes. For a funeral, give the venue and the funeral time at checkout so the florist can deliver in good time. If you have a question before you buy, please contact us. There is one delivery charge of £12.49 per order to one address, added at checkout.

Questions about this basket

Will the basket look like the picture?

The florist follows the same design and colours. If a flower is not available that day, they may use a seasonal stem of the same colour and style, of equal or greater value.

Can I send it to the funeral director?

Yes. Choose the funeral director as the delivery address and give the funeral time. They will place the basket with the other flowers for the funeral, and many families take it home afterwards.

What should I write on the card?

A few sincere words are enough, such as “With deepest sympathy” and your name. Our guide on what to write on a funeral card has more ideas.

Is it safe for a home with cats?

It contains lilies, which are toxic to cats. The pink basket has no lilies.

Are there other white designs?

Yes. See our full collection of funeral baskets, the sympathy arrangement of roses, lilies, stock and hydrangea in a low ivory container, or our wider selection of white funeral flowers.
