Funeral ribbon traditions vary between cultures, religions and individual families. We customize the language, message, ribbon colour, lettering and placement to respectfully reflect each family’s wishes.

Because every family’s tradition is personal, we are happy to confirm the exact wording and design before attaching the ribbon. Each ribbon is placed securely and thoughtfully so the message remains clearly visible without covering or damaging the flowers.
