Offering Comfort Through Flowers
In times of grief and loss, words often fall short. Yet, flowers have long served as a powerful symbol of love, remembrance, and respect. They speak a universal language of compassion that comforts the bereaved, honors the departed, and offers support when emotions are difficult to express. At CebuGiftShop.Com, we are humbled to serve families and friends in these solemn moments by delivering sympathy and funeral flowers that convey dignity and heartfelt condolences.
Funeral flowers are more than just arrangements. They are visual tributes of a life remembered. Whether in the form of a simple bouquet or an elaborate standing wreath, these floral offerings communicate unspoken feelings of sympathy, hope, and peace.

Types of Sympathy & Funeral Flower Arrangements
At CebuGiftShop.Com, we understand that choosing the right floral tribute is an important way to honor a loved one’s memory. Each type of funeral flower arrangement we offer carries a specific meaning, carefully designed to reflect the relationship you shared with the departed, as well as the solemnity of the occasion. Whether you're sending flowers for a wake, memorial service, or burial, our curated designs provide a respectful and heartfelt way to express your condolences.
Standing Sprays
Standing sprays are tall, vertical arrangements designed to be displayed on an easel. These are commonly placed near the casket or altar at wakes and funeral services. Their height and structure allow them to be seen by all who attend, making them a prominent tribute. Standing sprays are often sent by close friends, colleagues, or extended family and can be customized with favorite flowers or colors of the deceased.
Wreath Standing Sprays
Wreaths are circular arrangements that symbolize eternal life, continuity, and the endless cycle of love. The round shape represents the idea that life, although it ends physically, continues in spirit. Wreath standing sprays are a timeless choice for honoring someone’s memory and are often placed beside the casket or displayed at the entrance of a wake or memorial site. They are ideal for both religious and non-religious ceremonies.
Basket Sprays
Basket sprays are floral arrangements that are arranged in a basket for easy placement and transport. These designs are often more compact than standing sprays and are suitable for sending to homes, funeral homes, or even hospital rooms as sympathy flowers. Their modest size and structure make them an appropriate and thoughtful choice when you want to express sympathy without overwhelming the space.
Heart Sprays
A heart spray is an emotional and visually powerful tribute. Shaped in the form of a heart, it symbolizes deep love, loss, and sorrow. Heart sprays are often selected by spouses, children, or those with an especially close connection to the deceased. These arrangements can be crafted in open or closed heart styles and are typically displayed on an easel near the casket or altar.
Cross Arrangements
Perfect for Christian and Catholic funeral services, cross-shaped arrangements signify faith, spiritual peace, and the promise of eternal life. These floral crosses are a strong testament to the beliefs and religious devotion of the departed and provide spiritual comfort to grieving families. Commonly displayed near the altar or inside the chapel, these are usually sent by devout relatives or religious organizations.
Casket Sprays
Casket sprays are among the most personal floral tributes and are typically chosen by the immediate family of the deceased. Designed to lay atop the casket, these arrangements come in full-couch or half-couch styles, depending on whether the casket will be opened or closed. Casket sprays are meant to be lush, beautiful, and expressive of the family's love, farewell, and lasting bond.
The Meaning Behind the Flowers
Beyond the arrangement type, the flowers themselves also carry deep symbolism. For example:
-
White lilies symbolize purity, innocence, and the soul’s peaceful return to heaven.
-
White roses express reverence, eternal love, and respect.
-
Chrysanthemums, especially white ones, are commonly used in Asian funerals and represent grief and mourning.
-
Carnations signify remembrance and devotion, while orchids offer a message of everlasting love.
Each floral arrangement we create is a blend of symbolism, artistry, and compassion—meant to honor the life that was lived and provide comfort to those left behind. Whether you're looking for a traditional wreath or a customized heart-shaped tribute, CebuGiftShop.Com is here to help you choose the most meaningful arrangement for your heartfelt farewell.

Sympathy Support: What to Send and When
It’s important to understand the difference between sympathy flowers and funeral flowers:
-
Sympathy flowers are typically sent to the home of the grieving family, expressing condolences privately.
-
Funeral flowers are delivered directly to the wake or ceremony site and serve as public tributes.
You may send flowers:
-
Before the wake – to ensure presence at the start of the service.
-
During the wake – most common timing for delivery.
-
After the funeral – as a gesture of continued support to the family.
