FUNERAL FLOWERS TREND CONTINUES AT OUR SHOP IN NJ

Funeral Flowers Trend Continues with many family funeral flowers being created and delivered by our shop in Princeton NJ this week ~ well, it's been a super busy week in the shop and it's not over. With 2 bridal meetings tomorrow, 2 large school functions needing flowers and balloons, a small wedding and another wedding on Sunday, we will be happy to be closed on Monday for Memorial Day. In addition to all that, we had 3 rather large family funeral orders come in. We consider them "Family Funerals" when the immediate family of the person who has passed orders the larger floral displays from us. These include the casket displays and larger designs such as wreath, sprays and hearts.

Aren't the gorgeous? This design below was created for a young man who passed that was very, very Irish! Many of his displays were either green and white or green, white and orange. I think our designer Alicia did a beautiful job on this design. irish themed funeral sprayWe also created a few custom pieces such as this doggy bone below which was a gift from the family dog. Isn't that so sweet?

Everyone who saw this little guy in person fell in love with it. We are thinking it might be worth adding this design to our website for future occasions such as baby showers and even birthdays. flower teddy bear with red rose heart
