What to Do with Funeral Flowers After the Service

After a funeral or memorial service, the flowers often feel too meaningful to discard — and they don't have to be. Preservation turns them into remembrances your family can keep.

Meaningful options

  • Resin keepsakes — hearts, blocks, and ornaments with the real petals inside. Engraving can add a name or quote.
  • Pressed flower frames — a quiet, beautiful tribute for the wall, with or without a photograph.
  • Jewelry — pendants, earrings, and keychains let several family members carry a piece of the same arrangement.
  • Functional pieces — coasters and paperweights bring the remembrance into daily life.

Timing matters — but there's grace

Fresh flowers preserve best within a few days of the service. But if time has passed, don't assume it's too late: we regularly preserve older and already-dried memorial flowers using adapted techniques.

We'll make it easy

One phone call is enough to start — we'll send care instructions, receive your flowers by mail or drop-off, and design the piece with you when you're ready. Call 304-995-9471.
