Funeral Posy

Funeral posies are neat, round floral arrangements that are suitable for sending from family, friends, colleagues or neighbours. They can be placed by the coffin, at the crematorium or graveside, and are also a good choice when you would like a smaller, simple tribute that still looks beautiful and thoughtful.

At Anastasia Florists we hand-craft funeral posies in our Aberdeen flower shop using fresh, seasonal blooms in a choice of colours – from classic whites and greens to soft pastels or brighter, bolder tones. All our funeral flowers include free delivery to local funeral directors in Aberdeen, or to the family home if preferred.

What is a funeral posy?

A funeral posy is a small, round floral tribute that can be viewed from all sides. It is usually arranged in a compact, dome shape and is suitable for placing beside the coffin, at the crematorium or graveside. Posies are a popular choice from family, friends, colleagues or neighbours who would like to send a simple, respectful tribute.

What colours and styles can I choose for a funeral posy?

You can choose from soft, gentle colours such as whites, creams, pinks and lilacs, or opt for brighter tones like yellows, reds, blues and purples if that feels more fitting. Our florists can include favourite flowers where possible, or create a mixed seasonal design with complementary foliage. We are happy to advise on suitable colours and styles if you are unsure.

Who usually sends a funeral posy and where is it delivered?

Funeral posies can be sent by close family, extended family, friends, colleagues or neighbours. They are suitable for delivery to the funeral director, church, crematorium or family home. We offer free delivery of funeral posies to local funeral directors in Aberdeen and will liaise with them to ensure your tribute arrives in good time before the service.

How much notice do you need and can a funeral posy be personalised?

We recommend ordering a few days before the funeral where possible, especially if you have particular flower or colour requests. However, we will always try to help with shorter notice if we can. Funeral posies can be personalised with a message card and, in some cases, ribbon details or small name sashes.
