Can someone advise if possible?

Ive been to 2 funerals this year, one was a friends husband and the other an uncle.


I didn't take flowers to either funeral but I did send the 2 widows a basket of flowers. I chose bright, colourful ones which looked nothing like the traditional white/mauve funeral sprays.


Both widows told me that they were very pleased with them. It was a thought for the ladies left behind rather than the deceased and this way they had them in the house a few days before the funeral and so they were not thought of as 'funeral flowers'.

Wait until after the funeral if you are not informed of the charity before. Often the order of service will state a favourite charity, or details of charities that are dear to the person will come up during the service
