Priority delivery and urgent orders

Priority delivery for funerals

Timed around the service.

Funeral deliveries are handled differently from ordinary flower deliveries. The actual service date and time guide the arrangements, so please share accurate details and any changes as soon as you can.

Choose your preferred delivery date in the basket. Standard local delivery includes our funeral coordination; you do not need to buy an ordinary premium bouquet slot simply to have the tribute arrive in time. We check arrangements with the funeral director before delivery. For churches, crematoriums, homes and other venues, we confirm the delivery date and time with you.

Bespoke tributes and delivery photographs

Something more personal?

A tribute with their story in it.

Our florists can create bespoke tributes using names, initials, favourite colours, hobbies, symbols and meaningful shapes. Send us an idea and we’ll discuss flowers, scale and what is possible.

Answers when you need them

Funeral flowers, explained.

Can I order directly, or do I need to order through the funeral director?

You can order directly with Van Arthur. Choose your tribute, tell us the funeral details and our florists will coordinate the delivery. You do not need to arrange the flowers through the funeral director.

Can you deliver directly to the funeral director?

Yes, for an available local delivery destination. Share the deceased’s name, funeral director and service details. We check delivery arrangements with the funeral director before the tribute leaves us.

Can you deliver to churches and crematoriums?

Yes, where the destination and date are available. Tell us the exact venue, postcode and service details. We confirm delivery arrangements with you, including any venue access requirements. Locations outside our local area need separate confirmation.

When should funeral flowers arrive?

In advance of the service or the funeral procession leaving the funeral director. The correct time depends on the arrangements, so we coordinate the handover using the actual service details. An ordinary bouquet delivery window is not the timing to rely on.

What details do you need?

The deceased’s full name is required on funeral products. Share the actual funeral date and service time, destination, funeral director or venue, and a contact number where known. Choose your preferred delivery date in the basket. For collection, service details are optional.

How far in advance should I order?

Order as soon as the funeral details are known, especially for casket sprays, lettering or bespoke work. If the service is less than 24 hours away, call or WhatsApp our florists first so we can confirm what is possible.

Can you help at short notice?

We often can. Urgent wreaths and simpler tributes may be possible, while large casket sprays and bespoke shapes need more preparation. Call 020 3583 3084 or WhatsApp us with the service details before ordering.

Can I request colours or particular flowers?

Yes. Use the available colour options and special-request box. Requests are considered but cannot be guaranteed because flowers vary by season and availability. If a detail is essential, discuss it with our florists and receive our confirmation before ordering.

Do you make MUM, DAD or NAN letters?

Yes. Our personalised lettering product accepts names or words of up to seven letters per addition to the basket. Longer tributes can be split across additions. Choose the white-base or mixed-flower style and follow the product’s lettering instructions.

Can you make bespoke shapes?

Our florists can discuss names, hobbies, symbols and meaningful shapes. Send an idea through our contact page or WhatsApp and we will advise on the design, size, flowers and preparation time.

Will I see a photograph before delivery?

Where available, we can send a photo of a local tribute made by Van Arthur. Ask when ordering if this is important to you, so we can confirm. Partner-florist orders do not include Van Arthur photos or tracking.

What if a flower in the photograph is unavailable?

Our florists may use a suitable fresh alternative, considering the design, colour palette and value. If a specific flower must be included or avoided, speak to us and receive confirmation before ordering.

Can I collect my tribute?

Yes. Choose collection from our North Harrow shop in the basket. The deceased’s name identifies the tribute, but service date, time and venue details are optional for collection. Please call first for very urgent orders.
