Farewell: The Oasis Sympathy Guide

“Farewell” is a comprehensive guide to professional floral funeral tributes, designed to help florists showcase sympathy flower options, as well as providing guidance for the florist creating the designs.

The tributes featured in this guide have been thoughtfully created based on their beauty, uniqueness, and symbolic meaning. Photographed tastefully and in a neutral setting, the imagery can be shown to clients to help them make decisions in a difficult and emotional time.

The Farewell guide presents over 70 floral arrangements within 12 different aesthetic themes, helping the florist to offer a full array of pieces to suit the tastes and requirements of loved ones.

The themes range from Traditional and Natural to Vibrant and Contemporary, and there’s also guidance on creating sustainable funeral flowers.

In addition is the Bespoke section, which provides inspiration for more unusual requests, from footballs and fish, to handbags and horses.

Farewell has been produced in association with the British Florist Association, and bears their seal of approval as a trusted guide for use by professional florists. We are also pleased to announce that for every copy sold a portion will be donated to the BFA, to further support their excellent work.
