Pastel Wreath

Product Details

Pastel funeral wreath – soft pastel wreath tribute The pastel wreath sits in a specific part of the colour range — not the full white-and-cream neutrality of a traditional wreath, and not a single bold colour like red or yellow. Pastels introduce warmth and softness while staying within a quiet register. Soft pinks, peaches, lilacs, creams, and delicate yellows: they read as gentle without being absent, and they bring something warmer to a service than a purely white arrangement would. This works particularly well when the person being remembered had warmth and softness in their life — someone whose home had soft colours, whose garden was pinks and lilacs, whose character was gentle rather than bold. The original product brief mentions women and gentle personalities, which reflects a real pattern in what people order but isn't a rule. The more useful question, as always, is whether the flowers match the specific person rather than a category. Our pastel wreath is made at On The Hill Flowers using fresh seasonal blooms — roses, carnations, lisianthus, and chrysanthemums in soft pink, peach, lilac, and cream tones, with eucalyptus, dusty miller, and ruscus worked through for texture and foliage contrast. The circular form is fully covered with very little foam visible. It's built on a wet foam base, which keeps the flowers hydrated through the service without any watering needed. Three sizes are available: Classic at 14 inches (35cm) Luxury at 16 inches (40cm) Deluxe at 18 inches (45cm) The Luxury is the most commonly ordered for standard services. The Deluxe suits larger venues or when this is the primary family tribute. The Classic works well as a secondary piece or for a more intimate service. An easel or stand is available if needed. The wreath can also be delivered to a family home as a sympathy tribute if it isn't needed at the service itself. Colour and personalisation The palette can be weighted toward any of the pastel tones depending on what feels right. More pink for someone who loved roses and kept them everywhere; more lilac for someone whose garden was lavender and stocks; creams and whites for a more restrained interpretation within the pastel range. If you have a specific flower or colour combination in mind, tell us when you enquire and we'll build the arrangement around it where seasonal availability allows. Two working days' notice is needed. We deliver to funeral homes, churches, chapels, crematoriums, gravesides, and family homes. FAQ How is the Pastel Wreath different from the Neutral Wreath? The Neutral Wreath works in creams, soft whites, muted greens, and very subtle blush accents — it stays within a restrained, almost colourless palette and suits formal or traditional services of any kind. The Pastel Wreath has more visible colour: genuine pinks, peaches, lilacs, and soft yellows. It's warmer and softer, and it carries a more specific character. If you want something calm and appropriate without making a colour statement, the Neutral Wreath is the safer choice. If the person being remembered had warmth and colour in their life and the tribute should reflect that, the Pastel Wreath fits better. Who tends to choose this wreath? Often families remembering someone whose character or surroundings were consistently soft and warm — a cottage garden full of pinks and lilacs, a home with pastel walls, someone known for gentleness. It's most frequently chosen for women, particularly older women with a love of traditional flowers. But it works for anyone whose connection to these colours was genuine, regardless of age or gender. The flowers should follow the person. What flowers are included? Roses, carnations, lisianthus, and chrysanthemums in soft pastel tones, with eucalyptus, dusty miller, and ruscus for foliage and texture. Exact varieties shift depending on what's arriving freshest at the time of your order. The overall colour palette stays consistent; individual flowers within it may vary slightly through the season. If a particular flower matters — something the person grew or that held meaning for the family — mention it when you enquire. What sizes are available? Classic at 14 inches, Luxury at 16 inches, and Deluxe at 18 inches. The Luxury is the most ordered for standard funeral services. The Deluxe works better in larger venues or as a main family tribute where visual presence matters. If you're unsure which size suits your specific venue or service setting, contact us before ordering and we'll advise. Does the wreath need watering or any maintenance? No. The foam base is wet-soaked before the arrangement is made, which keeps the flowers hydrated throughout the service without any additional watering. Keep it away from direct sunlight and in a cool location before and during the service, and the flowers will hold well. Can the wreath be delivered to a family home? Yes. If you're sending a condolence tribute rather than a service arrangement, a wreath can be delivered to a private address. It's self-contained, stable, and doesn't need a vase or stand, which makes it a practical choice for home delivery. How much notice do you need? Two working days minimum. The wreath is made fresh before delivery using the wet foam base. If your situation is urgent, contact us directly and we'll tell you honestly what can be done within your timeline. Where do you deliver? To funeral homes, churches, chapels, crematoriums, gravesides, and family homes. We coordinate timing with funeral directors for service deliveries to ensure the tribute arrives in good condition before the service.
