What we compose

Flowers that suit
South London Crematorium.

At a cremation service the flowers are read from the front of the chapel, so the casket spray does most of the work: it sits along the coffin through the committal and is the piece the family sees throughout. Around it, standing tributes, letter tributes and hearts are placed to the side, where they read cleanly from the seats without crowding the bearers.

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 South London Crematorium, so a single person holds the brief from the first email to the moment the flowers are in place.

Before you order

South London Crematorium sets its own rules on what may be left after the service — we do not.

After a cremation the flowers are usually moved to the garden of remembrance or the floral tribute area for a few days, and the family is asked whether they wish to collect them. What each venue allows varies, so confirm it with the crematorium on 020 8679 4164 or at dignityfunerals.co.uk, and we will compose to whatever they ask for. Our guide to flower rules at London crematoria and cemeteries covers what usually applies.

We are the florist,
not the crematorium.

We simply deliver there, like we do to every crematorium in London.

For anything to do with the flowers themselves, write to us: we do not operate a telephone line, and every brief is handled in writing so nothing is lost.
