What To Expect When Setting Up Funeral Sprays

When a loved one passes on without warning, men and women will have to look over their options carefully. To honor the dead in an appropriate manner, people can buy funeral sprays. These are flower arrangements that can be set up near the casket. The goal is to make the service elegant and radiant.

The casket will generally need to be set up in an area where everyone can see it. The spray can be placed on the top of the casket. Surfaces that are flat will be easy to work with and will not cause much of a problem. Curved surfaces, on the other hand, will take a little more time to deal with.

The flower varieties should be carefully chosen. Roses are a perfectly fine idea, though the may have to be watered quite often. Most families choose to consult with a florist so that they know what they are getting into. They can make an informed decision as they move forward.

If the person who has died was in the armed forces, then he/she will likely be entitled to an American flag, which will be draped over the casket. The flag should be as clean as possible and should not have any marks on it. In some cases, the flag will be accompanied by patriotic music.

During the service itself, guests will be expected to be as quiet as possible. Loud noises and talking will simply not be tolerated, as these are signs of disrespect. With everyone cooperating, the service should be perfectly lovely. The family will be able to mourn gracefully.

In the end, funeral sprays can be lovely additions to the service. As long as the flowers are in great shape, they will add beauty to the ceremony. Family members and friends can move down the line and pay their respects to the person who has passed on.
