FAQs About Funeral Flowers

HOW MUCH SHOULD I SPEND ON FUNERAL FLOWERS?

When it comes to funeral flowers, there is no set amount one should spend. It all depends on what type and amount of flowers you wish to send and the size of the funeral flower arrangement itself. Large-scale flower arrangements alone may range from $75 to over $400, depending on their complexity and style. Smaller flower arrangements, such as a single rosebud or bouquet, can cost between $39-$50. Ultimately, it's up to you how much you spend on funeral flowers; remember that the gesture of mourning and sympathy is more important than its monetary value.

However, it's essential to consider the preferences of the deceased and their family when making this decision.
