What should I send to a funeral?</h2>
<div>
This is a daily question for us at Graves Floral. Many people have never sent flowers or plants for a funeral but would like to and have no idea where to start. This blog post is going to explain and describe the different sympathy options we offer to our customers. Flowers are a beautiful way to express the love and fondness for one who has passed during a time when it can be hard to find the words to say. We understand that it is a difficult time for family and friends when a loved one passes away and we want to make ordering flowers as easy as possible. Hopefully, this post will educate people to feel more confident when ordering sympathy arrangements. Most photos are from our website that you can order from too if it is too difficult to talk about in person at <a href="http://www.gravesfloral.com/sympathy">Graves Sympathy Work</a> </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A casket piece is typically from the family, who will set the tone for the other arrangement orders taken for the service. A family who comes to Graves Floral for their funeral flowers will meet with one of our experienced and friendly floral designers to decide what colors or styles best represent the loved one's life and memory. We understand that every family and person is different and we will work with a family to create a beautiful and memorable setting within any price range. Casket pieces can be made in different styles and sizes. Most commonly, they are either half-couch or full-couch casket pieces. Generally, in our area, most people have open casket funeral services so a half-couch is the best option for that type of service. However, if it is a closed casket funeral, some people opt for a full-couch casket spray. Prices start around $170 and can up to $600 or more. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
It is becoming more common for people to choose cremation rather than a burial of the body in a casket. We also make Urn Pieces to surround your loved one in a ring of beautiful and lush fresh flowers and greenery. These can also be used for a photograph during a memorial service. These arrangements begin around $149.95 and can be made larger at a higher price point. </div>

A spray is a one-sided arrangement that is made to hang on a wall or an easel. A spray can also be placed graveside, flat on the ground and staked down. They can be made from fresh flowers and greenery or silks. When being sent to a funeral home, a spray may be taken off an easel and hung on the wall by the funeral home staff depending on the home. Our sprays are priced from $120 and can be made for upwards of $250 or more. </div>

One of the most popular options sent to a service is a sympathy basket. Some people also refer to them as slumber baskets. A basket can be made in a paper mache' urn which can be displayed at the funeral home for visitation, through the service and be taken to the graveside. From there it can be left at the grave and will biodegrade in the mache' or can be taken home by a family member. Our mache' baskets start at $75.00 and can be made for any price point. We also make baskets in large plastic decorative urns that generally start at $125.00.<br />

So there we have it. We also do vase arrangements from $50-$150 to send to the funeral home for the visitation and service, which will be taken home by a family member after the service if you are tight on your budget but still want to let the family know you are thinking of them in their time of sorrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We appreciate all of our customers and value your business. Thank you to everyone.</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Wow! We sure have let this blog get away from us here at Grave's Floral. We are planning to do our best to keep this updated a little more often than every few years 😄 We're still rocking and rolling at the oldest flower shop in Shawnee, OK, providing the fair citizens of the town and surrounding areas with the Freshest and Finest Flowers available. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you are new to us, we're located at 1525 North Broadway in Shawnee, OK. Many of our customers have been long-time clients of ours and we thrive on repeat business. Not only do we depend on our customers but we feel invested in their lives and happiness. Being in the floral business is very different from other retail industries. We really get to know our customers through the good times of birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and new babies, but we're also there for them in times of sickness and sorrow. We may be playing a role behind the scenes but we take pride in every arrangement that leaves this shop, whether it's for a little girl's dance recital or the loss of a loved one. We want to be there to provide you and your family's flowers for all the occasions in your life. Sometimes, a gesture of fresh flowers speaks volumes when you just can't find the right words.</span></div>

We'll be closing early today and all day tomorrow to spend time with our families over the holidays. We're planning to be back on December 26th, but we're also keeping a close eye on that weather storm! <br /><br />And so you can preplan if needed, we will also be closed New Years Eve as well as New Years Day. Then we're back to our regular hours for your floral fix! :) <br />
<br />
I know I can safely say everyone at Graves wishes you & yours the best & brightest in 2013. And that we hope you know how much we appreciate all your business, love & friendship throughout each & every year. <br /><br />We hope everyone has a beautiful (and safe!) holiday season! <br /><br />Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

(Cooler being a relative term, ha!) We're still in the 90's but at least we're out of the 100's! Aaaand it's almost September. Which means it's almost FALL!<br />
<br />
And we loooove fall flowers.<br />
<br />
But it's not just fresh flowers that get all the love - we've been transitioning the front over now as well and our silks and home decor is just as pretty! For instance, take this awesome combo we've recently fallen head over heels for: <br />
<br />

Burlap and lace, baby.<br />
<br />
ALL THAT TEXTURE.<br />
<br />
(We're texture happy people.) <br /><br />We've got more pics lined up for you, but for now we'll just tease you with that sweet & simple beauty. :)<br /><br />Our shop is featuring this knockout combo all season, so be sure to check it out!

Back from the flower show at OKC's Greenleaf! <br /><br />(And let me tell you: their new building is <i>amazing</i>.)<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Not to mention our designer for the evening, Vonda LaFever, was also <i>amazing</i>. Greenleaf & the Oklahoma Board did a fantastic job of bringing her in and hosting a lovely inspiration workshop for the state. <br />
<br />
And not only is Vonda a tops designer, she is <i>so nice</i>. Absolutely engaging personality, fascinating to watch and learn from, and also, quite funny. <br />
<br />
Wonderful job for everyone involved! It was super fun, Greenleaf's new coolers are top notch and the place looks remarkable. <br />
<br />
Let's end on one of our favorite arrangements from LaFever: <br />

Tonight we're running off to Greenleaf's "Everyday Sensations" flower show! We're excited & ready to be inspired by our fellow designers and what they do to spice up their daily flower orders.<br />
<br />
Plus, we can't wait to see Greenleaf's brand new beautiful building! <br /><br />Greenleaf is our wonderful wholesaler in the city. It comes down to this: the more space & better coolers they have, the better product we receive, which means the more long-lasting and gorgeous arrangements <i>you </i>receive! We're excited to see what they've come up with to improve product for everyone. Can't wait! <br />
<br />
Don't worry - I'm sure there will be plenty of pics to follow!

And of course, part of what we love about every Olympic season is seeing what is chosen for the winner's bouquets! <br />
<br />
Be sure to <a href="http://flowerona.com/2012/06/jane-packers-victory-bouquet-for-medal-winners-at-the-london-olympics-2012/">check out this article on Flowerona</a> for all the breakdown on whats in these beauties. The elements for the victory bouquet can be quite restrictive in terms of size & shape, so its always fun for us to see what creativity can develop within those guidelines!Graves Floralhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14087435624653505834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6340762536999924006.post-85812591204270143682012-07-26T09:18:00.001-05:002012-07-26T09:18:04.988-05:002012 Weddings: Purple & Creams at StubblefieldWe loooooved this cream & purple wedding, especially since it featured some of our favorites: dark schwarzwalder & picasso callas!

Lisianthus corsage with seeded euc. Aren't these lizzys just gorgeous? We were oo'ing and aah'ing over them all week in the shop! So soft and pretty!Graves Floralhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14087435624653505834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6340762536999924006.post-28503364061243639822012-06-26T14:45:00.002-05:002012-06-26T14:45:56.858-05:00Inspiration Feature: From Across the Blogs....If you've been following our Facebook, you know we've started weekly offerings of inspiration we find from across the net. The reason why is because anytime we have down time at the shop we're searching out the latest and greatest trends in the floral industry and we wanted to share! We come across a ton of awesome possibilities for weddings (or events) and since we spend all this time looking for them, we feel its only right to pass along our pretty findings. <br />
<br />
We love the traditional elegance, we love sleek modern, we love bright colors, soft colors, geek chic, steampunk, tropicals.... we just love anything with flowers. And thankfully now with blogs we have such great opportunities to celebrate the cleverness, wisdom and ideas from so many brides! <br /><br />Last week we featured this lovely, <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/gallery/gallery/8312/1">traditional soft pink wedding </a>that we oo'd and aah'd over the elegance. <br />
<br />
This week we featured this <a href="http://www.capitolromance.com/2011/12/16/a-bohemian-wedding-styled-shoot/">Bohemian styled shoot </a>which shows off a gorgeous headpiece that essentially functions as her bridal bouquet! Just a touch of kale to carry and give your hands something to do. <br />
<br />
Keep checking out our Facebook on Tuesdays for another dose of inspiration!Graves Floralhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14087435624653505834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6340762536999924006.post-41256437162146536072012-06-25T15:14:00.003-05:002012-06-25T15:14:57.290-05:00Annoucement: Brides of Oklahoma feature!Did you know we're being featured in the next magazine of <a href="http://www.thebridesofoklahoma.com/">Brides of Oklahoma</a>? <br /><br />Did you?<br /><br />We're pretty excited! <br /><br />And not only that, but they've chosen one of our bouquets to be part of their Countdown to the Cover segment. Check it out <a href="http://www.thebridesofoklahoma.com/ok/wedding-blog/countdown-cover-five-fresh-florals">here</a>! (We have all oo'd and aah'd over this particular bouquet.) They'll be releasing the cover on Wednesday and we're excited to see what local bride they'll be showcasing this time. <br />
<br />
One reason we're so excited to be a part of Brides is because we love what they're doing. Featuring local florists, cake designers, photographers and fabulous brides from our state? Yes, please! They release a spring & fall issue featuring real weddings that let designers show off their work from across the state. So we always highly recommend it to our own brides looking for inspiration - where better than from your own? The great thing is that the magazine features everything from drop dead elegant to bright cosmic colors to, yes, rustic barn elegance. <br /><br />And (again) as always for more inspiration, be sure to check out our hand-picked blogs to the right. We follow these ourselves for keeping up with trends, styles and lovely floral fashion and love sharing our finds with you. These blogs feature from all over the world, so there's no doubt you can find your stylish soulmate there. <br />
<br />
We can't wait to share our feature with you, so keep checking back here for details! <br /><br />Graves Floralhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14087435624653505834noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6340762536999924006.post-20371988017735232012012-06-11T16:13:00.001-05:002012-06-11T16:13:37.856-05:00Froggie Friend!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
