What we compose

Flowers that suit
Tower Hamlets Cemetery.

At a burial the flowers are seen from all sides and stay outdoors, so the pieces that hold up are the ones built on a firm base: wreaths, standing tributes and graveside arrangements. Loose bouquets look right in the hand at the graveside but do not last long once they are laid on the ground.

Every tribute is composed by hand in our Bermondsey studio and delivered in unbranded packaging. The florist who composes the piece is the one who carries it to Tower Hamlets Cemetery, so a single person holds the brief from the first email to the moment the flowers are in place.

Delivering across the rest of the borough: funeral flowers in Tower Hamlets.

Before you order

Tower Hamlets Cemetery sets its own rules on what may be left after the service — we do not.

After a burial the tributes are normally laid on the grave and left there while they last, and the cemetery clears them once they have gone over. What each venue allows varies, so confirm it with the cemetery on 020 8983 1277 or at fothcp.org, and we will compose to whatever they ask for. Our guide to flower rules at London crematoria and cemeteries covers what usually applies.

That is set by Tower Hamlets Cemetery, not by us, and it changes from venue to venue — some restrict artificial flowers, glass or anything with a wire frame. Confirm it with the cemetery before you order, and we will compose to whatever they ask for.
