Custom Sympathy Arrangements
Every piece on this page started with a family telling us about somebody. The team they never missed. The card game they always won. The garden they spent every summer in.
You do not need to know flower names or arrive with a design. Tell us about the person, and one of our designers will help work out the rest with you.
These are examples, not a menu. If what you have in mind is not shown here, that is completely normal.
Call 978-988-0044Custom work usually needs about 48 hours. Depending on the piece, some designs may be possible with 24 hours notice.
Custom Sympathy Arrangements in Wilmington, MA

Custom Funeral and Sympathy Flower FAQs
There is no need to figure everything out before calling. These answers cover the things families ask us most.
How much notice do you need for custom funeral flowers?
We ask for about 48 hours so our designers have time to source flowers and build the arrangement carefully. Some simpler custom pieces may be possible with 24 hours notice. Please call and ask.
What do I need to bring or know?
A photo, favorite team, occupation, instrument, faith, color, hobby or family memory can be enough. You do not need to know the flower varieties or have a finished design in mind.
What can you create?
Our custom funeral tributes have been inspired by sports, playing cards, musical instruments, flags, animals, meaningful symbols and many other details. The pieces shown are examples of real work, not a fixed list of what is possible.
How much does a custom sympathy arrangement cost?
Examples on this page range from about $125 to $675. Size, shape, detail and flower choice affect the price. Tell us your idea and budget, and we will explain what can realistically be made.
Can you make a tribute from a photo or idea?
Yes. Share the photo or describe the idea. Our designers can discuss which details can be recreated using fresh flowers and where adjustments might be needed.
Will it look exactly like the picture?
Because the arrangements are handmade with fresh flowers, varieties and exact shades can change. We work to preserve the overall shape, colors and meaningful details. Tell us if any one detail is especially important.
Do you deliver to funeral homes and churches?
Yes. We deliver custom floral tributes to funeral homes, churches and gravesides across our local delivery area. For larger pieces, our team can deliver and position the arrangement before the service.
Can I order from out of state?
Yes. Call us to talk through the design, timing and local delivery details. You do not have to be nearby to help create a personal remembrance.
