Sympathy flower arrangements in Columbus and Central Ohio

A sympathy arrangement can go to the visitation and service or to the family's home, which makes it the most flexible way to send condolences. Milano's UpTowne Florist, family owned in Columbus since 1935, designs each arrangement by hand and delivers to funeral homes and churches throughout our area.

Arrangements include vase designs, baskets and tabletop pieces in soft, traditional colors as well as brighter designs that celebrate a life.

Choosing a sympathy arrangement

Service or home

Arrangements for the service are designed to be seen across a room. For the home, choose a vase or basket the family can keep and care for.

Color

White flowers such as lilies and roses are traditional choices for remembrance. A favorite flower or color of the person being honored is always a meaningful alternative. See our guide to sympathy flower meanings.

From a group

Coworkers, teams and neighbors often send one larger arrangement together. List every name, or the group name, on the card.

When to order

For the service, order as soon as you know the details and include the deceased's full name, the funeral home or church, and the visitation and service times so the flowers arrive before guests do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you deliver to funeral homes in Central Ohio?

Yes. We need three things: the name of the person who passed (the family's last name can be different), the funeral home and which location if it has more than one, and the service time. We look up the address and phone and reconfirm the time with the funeral home. If you only know the funeral home, that's enough to order; we call them as the florist.

Should I send flowers to the funeral home or the family’s home?

Send a vase or basket arrangement to the family's home, and standing sprays and traditional one-sided pieces to the funeral home. Dish gardens and plants work for either. Keepsake items sent to a home come wrapped with a bow rather than on an easel.

What size funeral arrangement should I send?

Start with your budget, your relationship and how many people are chipping in; a group of 10 or 20 can go bigger. Funeral pieces are seen across a room, so a larger piece usually looks better there. Order as early as you can, since some pieces take longer to make.

What is the difference between sympathy flowers and funeral flowers?

Funeral flowers are generally designed for a visitation, funeral, memorial service, church, or graveside setting. Sympathy flowers are often sent to the family's home or workplace to express care before or after the service. Some designs can serve either purpose, but the delivery destination and timing should guide the selection.
