When a family chooses cremation, the memorial service often centers on the urn instead of a casket.
An urn arrangement is a ring of flowers designed to surround the urn and frame it on the memorial table.
Browse the urn arrangements below, and a local florist will deliver your choice to the funeral home or the service location.
An urn arrangement is built around an open center where the urn sits.
The flowers rise around it, so the urn stays the focus while the table still looks complete.
The urn itself is not included, because the family provides it.
Each arrangement lists its flowers and colors in the description, from all-yellow designs to soft whites and pinks.
Some families place a framed photo beside the urn, and the flowers help tie the whole table together.
Urn arrangements are made for memorial services and celebrations of life where the urn is on display.
Close family most often orders the urn arrangement, much like the casket spray at a traditional funeral.
Friends and coworkers who want to send something to a cremation service often choose a standing spray, a table arrangement or a plant instead.
If you are not sure whether the urn will be there, ask the funeral home, since some families hold the service before the cremation.
Some families also ask for an urn arrangement at the graveside or the columbarium when the urn is placed.
Think about the urn first.
A dark wood or bronze urn looks striking with white or bright flowers, and a light ceramic urn pairs well with deeper colors.
If the service is a celebration of life, many families like warm, cheerful colors that feel like the person.
Look at the photo and the description to picture how each arrangement frames the center.
If there will also be a photo or keepsakes on the table, a lower arrangement leaves room for them.
If the family has asked for a theme or a color, add it to the special instructions box at checkout.
For the card, something simple works, such as “Remembering a beautiful life, with love from the Patel family.”
Card messages can be up to 200 characters.
Friends often send standing sprays to a memorial service, and a sympathy plant makes a lasting gift for the family.
Is the urn included?

Yes.
