Funeral bier bouquets

What is a stretcher bouquet?

A funeral bouquet is a type of floral arrangement traditionally used as a final tribute to deceased individuals at funeral ceremonies. The funeral bouquet is designed to honor the memory of the deceased and express sympathy and compassion to the bereaved. This type of bouquet has symbolic meaning and constitutes a dignified gesture during a time of mourning.

What is the size and appearance of a stretcher bouquet?

Funeral bouquets can vary in size, shape and flower choice, but what is common to funeral bouquets is that they are tied with a backing so that they can be placed on the floor of the church or chapel.
They can contain a variety of flowers and greenery and are usually tied with an optional funeral ribbon that carries a final greeting or the names of the senders.

Should you choose a funeral band?

Ribbons for a funeral bouquet are usually chosen to add a personal touch and express a message, greeting or final farewell to the deceased or their loved ones.

The ribbon may contain a short text expressing condolences, sympathy or fond memories of the deceased:

Text for the bier bouquet

The text on the ribbon for the funeral bouquet or decoration is a public final greeting intended for the deceased and their relatives. It can be difficult to put into words your feelings for the deceased, and choose the text that should be on the ribbon. Therefore, you can find some inspiration for the text on the ribbon below:

  • A final greeting
  • A final goodbye
  • Thank you for everything.
  • Sleep well.
  • Hidden in the heart, never forgotten
  • Rest in peace
  • Have a good trip
  • Thanks for all the good times
  • Loved & missed

...or whatever is right for you.

When choosing text for the funeral bouquet, flower heart, flower wreath, or funeral decoration, you should know that there are typically two ribbons. On each ribbon, you can write two lines (with approximately 6 words per line, depending on the length of the word/name).

On one ribbon, write a greeting. On the other ribbon, write who it is from.

Are you in charge of the funeral?

Organizer of ornaments and decorations

If you have the role of providing decorations in the church and possibly for the coffin, there are the following categories you should look at:

  • Coffin ornaments or coffin decorations that are placed on top of the coffin over the heart of the deceased. The decorations are available in several different sizes that cover anything from 1/4 to the entire surface of the coffin.
  • Bier decorations are intended to be placed on the floor around the coffin and are placed on the wreath-laying area or gravesite when the ceremony is over.
  • Pew rows are church decorations in the form of simple bouquets that are placed at the end of the pews along the church floor. Call us if you would like a quote.

Are you going to attend a funeral?

Attending the funeral

As a relative and participant in the ceremony, the flower arrangement is a nice way to say goodbye. Many people choose to add a ribbon with text for the deceased. The ribbon is available for the following bouquets:

  • Flower wreaths are circular arrangements that are available in several different sizes with different color themes.
  • Flower hearts are beautiful decorations with a loving message, available as both open hearts (like a heart-shaped wreath) or whole hearts.
  • Bier bouquets which function as bier decorations but are smaller in size and therefore also cheaper. These are also placed in front of the coffin for the ceremony and afterwards at the gravesite.

As an attendee at the funeral, you can also choose to purchase farewell roses, also known as funeral roses, in either white or red in the number of your choice.

Friend or acquaintance of relatives?

If you are a friend or acquaintance of the deceased's relatives and would like to show your compassion and sympathy, you can choose to send floral decorations to the church even if you are not attending. We deliver to a large number of churches in North Zealand.

You can also choose to show your sympathy and compassion with a condolence bouquet , which is available in many different sizes and at any price point. The condolence bouquet is often white or light in color and is a beautiful way to show care for someone you know who has lost someone.
