Simple Devotion is a six-piece sympathy flower arrangement collection built around white and cream carnations and fuji mums, so every piece matches whether a family orders one or all six. Choose a deluxe casket spray, a cross, a carnation and fuji mache basket, a carnation and fuji mache piece, a deluxe spray on a stand, or a classic cremation setting.
Families often split the set across a service: the cross or casket spray at the funeral home, the mache basket sent home afterward. The white and cream palette stays soft and dignified throughout, so nothing feels mismatched no matter which pieces you choose.
Our designers hand-arrange every piece in the studio, a tradition here since 1903, with same-day delivery available in most areas nationwide when ordered by 2 PM in the recipient's time zone, or noon on Sundays. Every piece in the set keeps the same soft, dignified white-and-cream palette.
Simple Devotion grew from requests for an all-white collection that still felt warm rather than heavy. Carnations and fuji mums gave us that softness across six shapes, so a family never has to start over piece by piece. It's become one of the collections we build most often to honor a loved one's memory at a service.
Here's what each of the six pieces includes, plus how families typically mix and match them for a personal, coordinated tribute at the service.
The Six Pieces in This Collection: Simple Devotion includes a deluxe casket spray, a cross, a carnation and fuji mache basket, a carnation and fuji mache piece, a deluxe spray on a stand, and a classic cremation setting, spanning casket sprays and standing sprays. Order any single piece or the full six-piece set, whichever fits the service.
One Palette, Six Pieces: White and cream carnations and fuji mums run through every piece, so the whole set reads as one coordinated tribute. Fresh greenery fills out each design the same way.
Ordering Individually or as a Set: Each piece is available on its own, priced separately, or together as the complete six-piece collection. Many families commonly order two or three pieces rather than all six, splitting orders between the service and home.
Matching Pieces to the Funeral Service: A funeral service usually calls for the casket spray, the cross, or the standing spray, while the cremation setting suits a memorial for someone who was cremated, offering a sense of peace amid grief. The mache basket and mache piece both travel well afterward for coworkers or neighbors who want to express condolences without attending in person.
Coordinating Delivery for Multiple Pieces: We deliver in most areas nationwide, same-day when ordered by 2 PM in the recipient's time zone, or noon on Sundays, and can time separate pieces to arrive at a funeral home and a family address on the same day. Call ahead for orders of more than two pieces so we can plan the routing and get everything there as soon as possible.
Yes, every piece is available on its own. The six-piece set is simply an option for families who want everything to match.
Many families send sympathy flowers from this collection to the service first, then the mache basket to the house afterward. We can help you decide what fits best over the phone.
