A softly tapered funeral sheaf, designed with the quiet sensitivity of an experienced Bow florist, lies diagonally against a crisp white backdrop, its gentle curve suggesting a final, graceful farewell. Dominating the centre are white oriental lilies, some fully unfurled so that their wide, silky petals open like calm stars, revealing pale golden stamens at the heart. Others remain in elegant bud, their sculpted forms promising a bloom that will unfold slowly in the days following the service. Interlaced among the lilies are stems of lisianthus-white blossoms with frilled, bell-shaped petals, many brushed at the edges with a tender lavender hue that adds a whisper of colour rather than a shout. Tiny, closed buds and smaller side blooms help to create layers of depth and a natural, flowing rhythm.   

All of this rests on a bed of lush foliage that both cradles and lifts the flowers. Deep green leaves, broad and glossy, are arranged to form a steady, dignified base, while long, narrow palm-like fronds extend outwards to the right, echoing the elongated teardrop silhouette often chosen for memorials in local Bow churches and funeral homes. Several leaves have been carefully folded and rolled into contemporary, sculptural shapes near the spray's centre, hinting at the steady hands and practiced eye behind the design. The overall palette of cool whites, verdant greens, and gentle lavender accents creates a sense of stillness, respect, and solace-an arrangement suited to honour a loved one at a funeral, cremation, or remembrance gathering anywhere from Roman Road to the quiet corners of Victoria Park.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a crisp white background, this substantial funeral spray unfolds in a sweeping teardrop shape, wider at the upper left and gradually narrowing to a soft, trailing point at the lower right, as though gently bowing in farewell. The main body of the arrangement is composed of lush, deep red roses and carnations, their colours echoing the rich, heartfelt tones often chosen for significant goodbyes. The roses appear fully open and velvety, each bloom layered with gently curved petals that create a sense of depth and quiet luxury. Nestled between them, the red carnations and spray carnations bring a different kind of beauty, with finely frilled edges and smaller, more numerous blooms that add movement and volume. Framing and weaving through the flowers is an abundance of greenery: broad, dark green leaves anchor the design and give it structure, while round, silvery eucalyptus leaves lighten the palette with subtle, misty grey-green notes. From the lower right point, slender tendrils of lighter green foliage spill out and down, enhancing the cascading feel and softening the outline. The invisible scent is easy to imagine-gently green with a hint of rose sweetness, like a calm moment by the canal paths around Bow and Mile End. This arrangement, typical of what a skilled Bow florist would create for a funeral or memorial service, feels both traditional and personal, suited for honouring a loved one at a local chapel or cemetery and offering comfort to grieving families gathered from the surrounding East London streets.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
Set against a crisp white background, a graceful sympathy spray stretches diagonally from top left to bottom right, creating a soothing sense of movement, as if gently guiding the eye through a moment of farewell. At the heart of the design, Stargazer lilies glow in intense fuchsia-pink, their petals framed with pure white edges and scattered burgundy speckles, some fully open, others still in elegant bud form. Nestled among them are deep magenta gerbera daisies, small bursts of cheerful colour that evoke cherished memories, while creamy white roses and soft, ruffled white carnations add a quiet, reverent tone. Delicate clusters of tiny white daisy-like flowers weave between the larger blooms, their fine petals giving a lace-like lightness. Surrounding everything is a generous halo of greenery: broad, polished dark-green leaves anchor the top and sides; fine, feathery fern fronds drape outward; and long, narrow blades of verdant foliage sweep down towards the lower right, emphasising the elongated, teardrop shape. The stems are tightly bound at the upper left, revealing this as a hand-crafted sheaf, designed to lie beautifully on a casket, at a graveside, or beside a memorial table. Imagining it delivered fresh from a Bow florist to a quiet service near Victoria Park or a chapel off Mile End Road, one can sense its intention: to convey love, respect, and enduring remembrance. The contrast of bold pinks with peaceful whites and lush greens creates a solemn yet hopeful tribute, ideal for offering comfort to grieving families throughout Bow and nearby East London neighbourhoods.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
Set against a clean, white studio background, a refined teardrop-shaped funeral spray unfolds in layers of soft pink and white, echoing the calm of a quiet morning along the streets of Bow. At the heart of the arrangement, numerous pink roses are carefully placed, each one slightly different in tone, from delicate shell pink to a deeper rose blush. Some blooms are just beginning to unfurl, their petals still cupped protectively, while others are wide open and generous, revealing complex spirals and a velvety texture you can almost feel. Nestled between them are clusters of white carnations and spray carnations, their finely ruffled petals creating a pillowy contrast to the smooth roses and catching the light with a gentle brightness. The flowers sit on a bed of mixed greenery: broad, dark green leaves shape and support the design, giving it a strong outline, while rounded eucalyptus leaves in a soft, silvery green thread through the centre, adding depth and a suggestion of fresh, herbal fragrance. From the tapered point of the spray, slender streams of dark green ruscus trail away, extending the teardrop silhouette and adding a sense of natural movement. The overall impression is of a carefully balanced tribute, substantial yet never heavy, its pastel tones offering comfort rather than intensity. Designed in a style often requested for services at local Bow churches and crematoriums, this floral spray conveys thoughtful condolence, remembrance and quiet gratitude for a life lived, offering a moment of beauty and solace on a difficult day.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
Set against a clean white backdrop, this long, one-sided funeral spray appears to drift diagonally across the image, like a gentle breath of calm. The composition is dominated by luminous white Oriental lilies, some fully unfurled with their trumpet-shaped petals curving outward, others still in smooth, pale buds that hint at unfolding remembrance. Nestled around them are clusters of ivory and cream roses, ruffled carnations, and white Gerbera-style blooms, each flower distinct in shape yet harmoniously blended into a soft cascade. Tiny white filler blossoms, reminiscent of gypsophila, are threaded throughout the design, lending a cloud-like haze that lightens the dense central cluster. The blooms are supported by a rich framework of foliage: deep, glossy leaves forming a steady base, delicate fern fronds softening the edges, and rounded eucalyptus leaves bringing a subtle blue-green note. Long, narrow leaves are artistically folded and gathered near the top, introducing vertical structure, while a sweeping spray of palm fronds extends from the lower right, giving the whole tribute a flowing, contemporary silhouette. The interplay of matte and shiny textures, combined with the restrained palette of whites and greens, creates a quiet strength and dignity well suited for a sympathy tribute in Bow. One can imagine this arrangement delivered to a funeral home near Roman Road or a memorial service by Victoria Park, offering a tender message of peace, remembrance, and respect, its soft lily fragrance filling the room where loved ones gather to reflect and say their final farewells.

GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
Set against a spotless white backdrop, this sympathy flower spray appears calm and composed, allowing the viewer to focus entirely on its thoughtful details. The design is low and elongated, rounded and more substantial on the left before tapering into a refined, trailing point on the right, creating the impression of a gentle, forward movement. At its heart are velvety deep red roses, their petals still tightly furled, embodying devotion, sorrow, and enduring affection. They are interwoven with numerous soft white carnations whose finely layered, frilled petals introduce a soothing, cloud-like texture and a sense of purity. The flowers are cradled in an abundant bed of lush greenery: broad, dark, glossy leaves anchor the piece, while muted, silvery eucalyptus foliage threads through the roses and carnations, adding delicate variation in tone and a cool, herbal scent. From the right-hand side, slender stems of lighter green foliage trail gracefully outward, suggesting a natural, cascading edge that softens the structured centre. The balance of rich red, clean white, and fresh green evokes quiet remembrance, much like those reflective moments by the River Lea or Victoria Park, just a short distance from Bow. Thoughtfully composed in the style of a casket spray or memorial tribute, this arrangement would be suitable for funerals, chapel services, or graveside farewells in and around Bow. Every element feels intentional and respectful, as if designed by a local florist who understands how families here wish to express their love, support, and final goodbye through flowers.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
An elongated sympathy spray of red roses and berries rests on a bright white background, its diagonal placement drawing the eye from the tidy, leaf-wrapped stems at the upper left down to the gentle cascade of greenery at the lower right. The main focus is a generous line of velvety red roses, their petals rich and soft, showing different stages of bloom that echo the passage of life: firm buds, half-open flowers, and fully opened roses revealing intricate, spiralling centers. Tucked closely around them, small clusters of round, pinkish-red Hypericum berries introduce a subtle play of colour and texture, catching the light with a soft sheen that contrasts with the matte depth of the petals. Supporting this river of red is a bed of luxuriant foliage; large, glossy dark green leaves act like a frame, while fine, airy palm fronds extend outward, giving the spray a sense of movement, as if a gentle breeze from nearby Mile End Park were brushing through the leaves. Additional slim, leafy stems weave in and out, adding structure without overwhelming the roses. At the point where the stems meet, they are carefully bound with a smooth green leaf wrap, giving the tribute an expertly finished, professional look that reflects the hand of a skilled Bow florist. The stark white background heightens the contrast and clarity of every detail, allowing this classic red rose funeral spray to communicate quiet strength, heartfelt condolences, and a respectful final tribute, whether placed in a chapel of rest or delivered to a family home off Bow Road.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
A serene white funeral floral arrangement rests diagonally against a spotless white backdrop, forming a classic teardrop spray that is full and mounded at the upper left, then gradually narrowing into a delicate trail of greenery at the lower right. The main focus is on lush white and cream roses, each at a different stage of bloom: some tightly furled, others half-open, and several fully unfurled to reveal their intricate spirals of satin-soft petals. Between them, clusters of frilly white carnations add a soft, almost feathery volume, creating gentle shadows and visual depth. The flowers sit on a bed of layered green foliage, with muted eucalyptus leaves in a silvery sage tone woven throughout, echoing the cool, calm mood of an early morning walk by the canals around Bow. Darker green leaves and arching ruscus stems extend outward, especially along the tapering right edge, giving the design its elegant, flowing movement. The clean white background removes any distraction, allowing every curve, petal, and leaf to stand out clearly. The overall impression is of quiet reverence and thoughtful craftsmanship, like something a trusted local florist in Bow would prepare for a memorial service or final farewell. It is a composition that speaks in whispers rather than shouts, offering a sense of peace, purity, and heartfelt condolence for families gathering to remember a loved one in this East London community.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
This image shows a lush sympathy spray in soft shades of pink, arranged in a classic elongated teardrop that lies gracefully as if ready to be placed on a casket or at the front of a memorial. At the heart of the design are numerous blush pink roses, some fully open with spiralling, velvety petals, others in half bloom, giving a natural, garden-like rhythm to the composition. Nestled closely between them are light peach-pink carnations, their frilled, cloud-like petals adding volume and a gentle, feathery texture. The colours range from the palest shell pink to a slightly deeper dusty rose, creating a soothing gradient that feels tender and contemplative rather than showy. Around the blooms, rich green foliage fans outward: broad, glossy leaves provide a solid, comforting frame, while finer, more delicate greenery extends beyond the flowers, especially along the tapered right edge, where fronds seem to drift like a quiet sigh. Set against a bright white background, every detail is clear-the contrast between the soft florals and the deep greens, the careful way each stem has been layered to form a cohesive flow from top to tip. It is the kind of respectful funeral tribute a Bow family might choose for a service near Victoria Park or a small chapel by the Regent's Canal, when they want flowers to speak of love, warmth, and steady support. The arrangement radiates calm sympathy, suggesting a gentle embrace and a final message of peace.

£160.00
PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
A stately red floral funeral spray stretches diagonally across a crisp white backdrop, the clean background highlighting the drama of its colour and form. Designed in an elongated, one-sided style, the piece is richest and most compact at the centre, then softly narrows at the edges, echoing the shape of a traditional casket spray chosen for thoughtful goodbyes in Bow's local chapels and quiet gathering spaces. The core is packed with luxurious deep red roses, their velvety petals spiralling inward, each bloom suggesting devotion and courage. Nestled between them are generous clusters of red carnations, whose finely ruffled petals add both volume and a gentle, cushiony softness. Red gerbera daisies punctuate the design, their round, open faces and darker centres introducing a playful yet dignified rhythm. Sprinkled among the red blooms, tiny white flowers-perhaps baby's breath or miniature chrysanthemums-glimmer like small points of light, ensuring the composition never feels heavy despite its strong colour. A wide red satin ribbon, tied into an elegant bow near the upper section, arcs gracefully over the flowers, with long trailing tails weaving in and out like a ribbon of remembrance. Surrounding everything is a frame of lush foliage: long, arching palm fronds and darker, glossy leaves build a rich green base, with feathery ferns adding detail and movement. The spray feels calm yet powerful, the kind of floral tribute a Bow family might choose to express lasting affection, whether gathered near Bow Road or along the quieter residential streets that surround it.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART CASKET SPRAY
£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a bright white background, this elongated casket spray appears like a river of colour and remembrance flowing from left to right. The central line of the arrangement is anchored by rich red lilies, their broad, star-shaped blooms opening confidently, with darker speckles drawing the eye into the heart of each flower. Threaded among them are generous clusters of roses in cream, soft pink, and a hint of lavender, each petal gently cupped, suggesting tenderness and enduring affection. Pale pink carnations with delicately ruffled edges and small white daisy-like chrysanthemums weave between the larger flowers, giving the tribute a plush, layered texture when viewed from above. Cool-toned details, including silvery-blue thistle heads and tiny purple filler flowers, peep out from between the petals and add subtle contrast, much like the quiet support of friends and neighbours at a Bow farewell gathering. The whole spray rests on a dense foundation of greenery, where broad salal-style leaves and finer fern fronds extend beyond the blossoms, creating a soft, tapered silhouette that would sit gracefully on a coffin. The light in the image is even and clear, allowing every colour-from crimson lily to creamy rose-to be easily distinguished, while the white backdrop keeps attention focused entirely on the flowers. It is the kind of refined, comforting tribute a local family might choose for a memorial service near Victoria Park or Mile End, a floral expression of sympathy and respect thoughtfully composed by experienced Bow florists.
