A refined sympathy spray is arranged on a clean white backdrop, its form stretching diagonally like a gentle river of flowers flowing from a fuller top section to a fine, tapering point below. Dominating the composition are white oriental lilies, some in full, trumpet-shaped bloom with open, creamy petals and soft golden stamens, others still in smooth, green-tipped buds that lend a sense of quiet anticipation. Nestled between these larger blooms are airy clusters of lisianthus, their delicate white petals traced with pale lavender and hints of purple along the edges, which bring a soft, almost ethereal contrast to the serene whites. The flowers rest on a bed of varied greenery: broad, glossy, dark green leaves create structure and depth, while other leaves are artfully rolled and folded into sculptural loops that speak of a florist's practiced hand. From the right side, slender palm fronds sweep outward in graceful arcs, lengthening the silhouette and giving the piece a sense of gentle movement, like a blessing being extended. No vase is visible, underscoring that this is intended as a lying tribute, ideal for placing beside a casket or at the front of a chapel. The overall effect is of cool, fresh beauty and measured elegance, the colour palette restrained to whites, greens, and a whisper of lavender. Crafted by a florist familiar with quiet Stepney farewells, it would sit beautifully in a small church off Commercial Road, at a crematorium chapel, or in a funeral home reception, offering a composed, respectful expression of sympathy and remembrance.
SERENITY SPRAY
£75.00
A substantial, teardrop-shaped condolence spray is displayed against a clean white backdrop, its rich reds and greens forming a striking yet deeply respectful composition. The arrangement begins broad and full at the upper left, then sweeps diagonally down toward the lower right, tapering into a fine, trailing point that gives the design an elegant sense of direction-like a gentle bow of the head. Dark red roses dominate the spray, their velvety petals unfolding in soft spirals that speak of devotion and lasting love. Between them, clusters of brighter red spray carnations offer a more textured surface, their frilled and layered petals catching the light and creating a subtle play of shadow and depth. Encircling and weaving through the blooms is an abundance of foliage. Large, dark green leaves form a sturdy base, offering a deep, grounding contrast to the crimson flowers, while round, silvery eucalyptus leaves introduce a cooler tone, softening the intensity of the reds. At the tapered lower edge, lighter green trailing foliage, possibly ruscus or similar, cascades gently away from the central mass of blooms, lending the entire spray a natural, flowing movement. It is easy to imagine this piece resting on a casket or placed at the front of a chapel in Stepney, perhaps following a quiet procession from nearby residential streets. The overall mood is solemn yet tender, a traditional funeral arrangement that balances structure and softness, designed by a florist who understands how flowers can offer comfort, honour a life, and bring a moment of calm to grieving families.
DEEP AFFECTION CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
FLORIST CHOICE SYMPATHY SPRAY £300
£300.00
A graceful sympathy spray, designed in an elegant diagonal, is shown against a pure white background, creating a calm, chapel-like atmosphere. From the neatly tied stems at the upper left, the flowers spill gently downward to the lower right, forming a soft crescent that feels like an embrace. Dominating the centre are dramatic Stargazer lilies, their large, star-shaped blooms glowing in shades of fuchsia and rose pink, edged with white and dusted with burgundy freckles. Some lilies are fully open, others still in bud, suggesting both cherished memories and the continuation of love. Nestled around them are velvety white roses and ruffled white carnations, which bring a soothing, cloud-soft contrast to the vivid colour of the lilies. Bright magenta gerbera daisies are spaced thoughtfully through the design, their cheerful faces adding a note of warmth and gratitude, much like the close-knit feeling of the Stepney community. Fine white daisy fillers weave between the larger flowers, catching the light and giving the arrangement a delicate, lace-like detail. The spray is cradled in lush greenery: broad, dark green leaves anchor the composition, layers of soft fern fronds add gentle movement, and long, slender leaves arc outward and downward, emphasising the elongated shape. Every element looks fresh and carefully placed, as if prepared early that morning for a funeral service near Stepney Green or a memorial gathering by the church on Commercial Road. The overall impression is one of dignified beauty and heartfelt sympathy, offering comfort and a tender tribute in times of loss.
SPECIAL THOUGHTS SPRAY
£75.00
This elongated teardrop funeral spray rests against a bright white background, its soft colours and flowing form creating a sense of quiet composure. At the heart of the design are numerous pink roses in varying stages of bloom, from tight, hopeful buds to fully opened heads with plush, spiralling petals. Their shades move from delicate blush through to deeper rose pink, lending gentle warmth to the arrangement. Interwoven with these are clusters of fluffy white carnations and miniature carnation sprays, their finely frilled petals adding texture and a feeling of lightness, almost like small clouds resting among the roses. Supporting the flowers is a generous frame of foliage: glossy, deep green leaves give the tribute its structure and depth, while discs of silvery eucalyptus soften the outline and introduce a slightly misty, romantic tone. Toward the slimmer end of the spray, slender tendrils of dark green ruscus trail outward, adding a sense of movement, as though the flowers were gently flowing in one direction. The composition is broad and full at one end, then narrows to a more pointed tip, giving the classic casket-spray silhouette so often chosen to honour a loved one. The atmosphere is peaceful and respectful, ideal for a memorial gathering in Stepney, perhaps after a quiet walk across Mile End Park or along the streets by Stepney Green. Designed with the sensitivity of an experienced local florist, this tribute conveys condolence, remembrance, and the enduring grace of goodbye.
IN YOUR HONOUR CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A refined sympathy spray in shades of white and green stretches diagonally across a pure white backdrop, its shape tapering gracefully and inviting the eye to travel along its gentle curve. The central focus is a cluster of majestic white lilies, some fully open to display their velvety petals and soft pistils, others still in elegant bud form, suggesting continuity and ongoing remembrance. Around them, creamy white roses and ruffled carnations nestle closely, their textures alternating between smooth and frilled, while white Gerbera-style daisies with modest dark and pale yellow centres bring a clean, contemporary note. Fine sprigs of tiny white filler blooms are interlaced among the larger flowers, giving the arrangement a light, almost airy halo. Supporting this serene canopy of petals is a rich tapestry of foliage: broad, dark green leaves form a solid base, delicate fern fronds add feathery movement, and rounded eucalyptus leaves introduce softer, grey-green tones. At the top, a small bundle of long, narrow leaves is neatly looped and secured, creating a subtle architectural detail. From the lower right edge, a fan of slender palm fronds arcs outward, lending the arrangement an elongated, asymmetrical silhouette that feels modern yet timeless. The overall effect is one of quiet strength and tender reverence, perfectly suited for a funeral service or memorial in Stepney, whether placed beside a casket, at a graveside near Mile End Park, or in a modest chapel, where its calm white blooms can offer comfort to family and friends gathered in farewell.
SIMPLICITY SPRAY
£75.00
Crafted with a florist's deep sensitivity, this large sympathy spray emanates calm and comfort, resting diagonally across a stark white backdrop evocative of Stepney's quiet early mornings. The arrangement echoes the artistry found in hidden corners near Stepney City Farm or the gardens of Mile End, mixing the serene beauty of pristine white lilies-some fully aglow, others promise-filled in bud form-with the affectionate presence of deep pink and fuchsia roses. Each rose, from tightly packed bud to unfurling bloom, offers warmth and reflection, nestled among tufts of ruffled spray carnations that add visual softness and grace. Bright moss-green spheres of santini chrysanthemum create playful texture and energy, their vibrance reminiscent of leafy spaces in local parks. Small, glowing red hypericum berries are scattered thoughtfully, their cheerful brightness offering a hopeful counterpoint. The spray is grounded by opulent, dark emerald foliage, including aspidistra leaves expertly folded to form gentle lines and broad palm fronds that tumble downward, extending the diagonal flow. Feathery sprigs and wispy greens lend the piece natural volume and an airy sense of peace. Every element is thoughtfully curated, making the arrangement ideal for expressing heartfelt condolences or honouring a loved one's memory at a funeral in Stepney or along the wider East London community. The overall impression is one of sincere remembrance and loving tribute, each flower reflecting the skill and care of a local Stepney florist.
FOREVER ADMIRED SPRAY
£75.00
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
GENTLE THOUGHTS SPRAY
£90.00
A graceful sympathy flower spray is shown lying against a clean white backdrop, the simplicity of the background drawing attention to the careful detail of each bloom, as if prepared for a thoughtful funeral service in Stepney. The arrangement is elongated and low, its form beginning with a fuller, rounded cluster of flowers on the left and gently tapering to a refined, trailing tip on the right. Rich, deep red roses form the focal points, their tightly layered petals velvety and intense in colour, symbolising devoted love, respect, and the depth of loss. Scattered between them are numerous white carnations, their soft, ruffled petals building airy mounds of texture that lend a sense of calm and purity to the design. The conversation between the red and white blooms creates a classic, dignified palette well suited to moments of farewell. Beneath and around the flowers lies an abundant layer of greenery. Broad, dark green leaves provide structure and weight, their smooth surfaces catching light with a gentle sheen. Threaded through this base are muted, silvery eucalyptus leaves, offering a cooler note of green and a whisper of fresh, soothing scent. From the right edge of the spray, trails of lighter, finer foliage extend outward, echoing the direction of the design and adding a natural, cascading finish. The overall effect is one of quiet elegance and heartfelt condolence, a fitting tribute for a loved one being remembered in Stepney, Bow, or near the calm spaces around Stepney Green. It appears purpose-built to lie on a casket or at the front of a chapel, sharing a silent message of love and remembrance.
FOREVER BELOVED CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
A graceful, traditional funeral spray of red roses lies on a pristine white backdrop, positioned diagonally so the eye naturally follows its gentle, elongated curve. The heart of the arrangement is formed by sumptuous red roses, their petals velvety and full, some still partially closed with a promise of bloom, others open enough to reveal a deep, romantic crimson. Threaded among these roses are generous clusters of Hypericum berries in soft coral-pink and raspberry-red shades, their round, bead-like forms giving a delicate texture that softens the intensity of the roses. A lush collar of foliage underpins the entire design: broad, dark green leaves-likely Ruscus or Salal-overlap in layered fans, their glossy surfaces catching subtle reflections, while finer greenery and airy palm fronds stretch outward from the base, echoing the flowing shape of the spray. The composition narrows gracefully towards the tip, creating a teardrop silhouette that feels both elegant and contemplative. At the upper left, the stems are gathered and carefully encased in a band of folded green leaf, adding a bespoke, couture touch often seen in professional funeral work. The contrast between the white background and the rich reds and greens allows every petal, berry, and leaf vein to stand out clearly, as though freshly prepared for delivery to a chapel of rest in Stepney Green or a quiet farewell at Queen Mary's Hospital. This piece speaks in hushed tones of devotion, making it an intimate, respectful tribute crafted for families across Stepney and the surrounding East London streets.
EVERLASTING LIGHT SPRAY
£75.00
A serene funeral spray in classic white and green is laid out diagonally against a bright white background, the design flowing from a full, rounded head of flowers on the upper left to a slender, tapering tail on the lower right. The central focus is a generous grouping of white and cream roses, some in bud, some half-open, and others fully unfurled so their soft, overlapping petals form intricate rosettes. Nestled between the roses are clusters of fluffy white carnations, their finely fringed petals lending the arrangement a gentle, cushion-like depth. The blooms sit atop a layered base of foliage: cool-toned, silvery eucalyptus leaves spread throughout the spray, while darker green leaves provide structure and contrast, and fine ruscus stems and other delicate greenery trail softly off the pointed end. The flowers appear freshly arranged, as if prepared that morning in a Stepney florist studio for delivery to a chapel of rest near Whitechapel Road or a quiet family gathering close to Limehouse. The shape, reminiscent of a teardrop or slender crescent, feels traditional yet personal, guiding the eye from the lush heart of the spray down along its graceful line. The calm white and cream palette suggests purity and remembrance, while the greens add a sense of grounded, natural calm. This tribute feels designed to rest beside a coffin, on a stand, or near a photograph of the departed, offering a tender, wordless message of sympathy and respect to grieving families from Stepney and neighbouring East London communities.
DIVINE GRACE CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
HEAVENS LIGHT SPRAY
HEAVEN'S LIGHT SPRAY
£70.00
A softly elongated sympathy spray stretches diagonally across a clean white background, its teardrop form full and rounded at one end, then gently narrowing to a graceful point. The heart of the arrangement is a lavish gathering of pink roses, many fully open with spiralling petals that curl like satin ribbons, others in earlier stages of bloom that hint at unfolding stories and memories. Between them, numerous light peach-pink and blush carnations weave through the design, their ruffled textures giving a cloud-like softness to the surface of the spray. The palette is entirely gentle-dusty rose, soft pastel pink, and warm peach-resting on a foundation of dark, velvety green foliage. Broad, structured leaves create a strong base along the sides, while finer sprays of greenery extend outward, especially toward the tapered end, creating a feeling of quiet movement, like a breeze along the paths of Stepney Green. The flowers seem freshly cut, the petals plump and smooth, suggesting careful preparation by an experienced local florist who understands how to create a peaceful, comforting tribute. Against the stark white background, every blossom is clearly defined, making it easy to picture this piece resting on a casket in a Stepney church, or as a central display at a memorial gathering near the Regent's Canal. The overall impression is one of calm, tender respect, and gentle consolation, a floral arrangement designed to offer solace and honour a cherished life with elegance and grace.
COMPASSIONATE FEELING CASKET SPRAY
£160.00
PINK ROSES
PINK ROSES SERVICE ARRANGEMENT
£90.00
A dignified red casket spray is laid out against a bright white background, its form stretching horizontally like a gentle arc of colour and memory. At the centre, rich crimson flowers are packed closely together, creating a deep, velvety core. Red roses, some still partially furled and others fully open, catch the light on their layered petals, while clusters of red carnations add a softer, frilled surface, almost cloud-like in their density. Interspersed are bold red gerberas, their round, daisy-like faces and darker centres giving the arrangement rhythm and movement, as though each bloom radiates its own story. Tiny white filler flowers, perhaps baby's breath or delicate chrysanthemum sprays, glint from between the reds, offering small pauses of brightness and highlighting the intensity of the main blooms. Around this central sweep of colour, generous greenery fans out. Long palm leaves curve outward from the base and sides, forming a graceful frame, while shorter, denser salal or ruscus leaves tuck in close, ensuring no harsh gaps break the flow. You can almost feel the differing textures: the gloss of the palms, the matte softness of the carnations, the satin sheen of rose petals. A wide red satin ribbon sits near the top of the spray, tied into a multi-loop bow, with its trailing ends guiding the eye along the length of the piece like a gentle embrace. This formal yet heartfelt arrangement feels suited to a final farewell in Stepney, perhaps for a service near Stepney Green Park or a quiet memorial at home, conveying passion, respect, and lasting affection.
ALWAYS IN MY HEART CASKET SPRAY
£120.00
SINCERITY SPRAY
SINCERITY SPRAY
£70.00
Set against a pure white background, this elongated funeral spray appears like a river of colour flowing gently from left to right, offering a serene farewell. The arrangement is densely layered, with deep red Oriental-style lilies forming dramatic focal points along the centre line, their star-shaped blooms edged with soft pink and dotted with darker markings that hint at depth and complexity. Around these striking lilies, a generous mix of roses in cream, ivory, and pale blush pink lend softness; some blooms are fully open and cupped, while others are still partly closed, symbolising lives at different stages. Light pink carnations, with their frilled, generous petals, weave through the heart of the tribute, blending seamlessly into clusters of small white chrysanthemum-like flowers that brighten the composition. Sprigs of silvery blue-purple thistle add a slightly spiky, textural note, while trails of delicate lavender-blue filler flowers peek out between the larger blooms, suggesting quiet resilience. All of this is cradled in a bed of luxuriant green foliage: broad, shiny leaves that reflect a gentle light and finer, ferny stems that soften the edges, especially as the spray narrows towards the right-hand tip. The design feels thoughtfully constructed, as though a Stepney florist has carefully considered each placement for a family saying goodbye at a funeral home near Mile End or along Commercial Road. The colours, textures, and flowing shape together convey respect, love, and a message of peace, making this tribute an appropriate and comforting choice for a final journey.
