How much does a casket spray cost?
A casket spray costs $239.95 to $459.95 before delivery, with a median of $314.95. A full-couch spray that covers the whole casket sits at the top of that range. A half-couch spray for an open casket usually costs less. The immediate family traditionally orders and pays for the casket spray, so check with them before ordering one.
How much does a standing spray cost?
A standing spray costs $149.95 to $314.95 before delivery, with a median of $194.95. It stands on an easel near the casket or at the front of the room. It is the most common larger piece sent by close friends, extended family and groups such as coworkers who split the cost.
How much are funeral wreaths, hearts and crosses?
Funeral wreaths cost $264.95 to $419.95. Hearts cost $264.95 to $329.95 and crosses $264.95. These are displayed on an easel and are usually sent by family or a group.
What does a funeral flower order cost in total?
Add the $19.99 delivery fee and your local sales tax to the arrangement price. For example, a median standing spray costs $194.95 plus $19.99 delivery, or $214.94 before tax. A $79.95 basket for the family's home costs $99.94 before tax.
What is a good budget for funeral flowers?
- Immediate family: a casket spray, usually $240 to $460.
- Close family and friends: a standing spray, wreath or heart, usually $150 to $330.
- Friends, neighbors and coworkers: a basket, table arrangement or plant, usually $80 to $135. A group can pool money for a standing spray.
Any amount is appropriate. A small arrangement sent in time for the service means more than a large one that arrives late.
