When wanting to support your loved ones during a bereavement, it can be hard to know what are the right flowers to send. At Best Blooms Auckland, our florists recomend sending a water-filled vox bouquet. This takes away the pressure from the family for having to take care of the flowers, as your bouquet is arranged and displayed in a portable no-fuss wrapped vase/box. It is the most popular floral option in New Zealand to send to the home of the bereaved. A vox bouquet, is long-lasting and entirely convenient for them to receive.
We would also suggest sending floral arrangements for a bereavement gift. These are more compact styled flowers, arranged in Oasis (water filled florist sponge), and our florists make them in a keepsake tin trough for them to re-use afterwards. A floral arrangement is easy to take care of, they just need to be watered daily. We have soft and subtle box arrangements of flowers, pretty garden arrangements, and sympathy baskets.
In terms of the colour to choose for your bouquet, it is entirely appropriate to send either symbolic, traditional white flowers, or gentle, soft pastels as a sign of your grief. Some customers like to send a more cheerful, bright colour flower bouquet in memory of happy times, and to celebrate the life of the deceased. The family will appreciate your thoughts and care and being surrounded by love.
To share your condolences, sometimes you want to send something instead of flowers. Plants are a lovely alternative, Thinking of You Peace Lily Plant Gift Box, is a popular option for a bereavement gift. Alternative to flowers a sharing food gift box, or gift basket can be sent to the grieving family to send your loving thoughts in their time of sorrow.
You are welcome to call our florists, to discuss how we can help with the floral arrangements on 09 838 9058, or please order securely online.
