Wreath of flowers
The sheaf, laid out in front.
The funeral spray
A spray is built flat, on one side only, to be seen from the front. It is laid before the coffin during the service, then on the grave or at the columbarium.
Its shape
The stems are gathered in a fan and tied low, the point upwards. That build lets it rest against a support without coming apart, and lets it be taken up after the service without being dismantled.
Where it is placed
Before the coffin at the church or the funeral home, against the stone at the cemetery. Give the exact address of the place and the time of the service when you order: it is the hour that governs the delivery, not the date.
The inscription
A ribbon can carry a few words — a family tie, a formula, a family or company name. It is filled in the field provided, and stays on the piece after the service.
