"A eulogy doesn't have to be long. Often the greatest strength lies in honesty and brevity. If you're worried emotion will overwhelm you, let the flowers speak for you. A wreath or a large bouquet with a personal message on the ribbon can express respect just as powerfully as words."

Recommendations for the Ceremony
-
Length: Speak slowly and calmly. Two minutes is just about right.
-
Flowers: Don't forget to order flowers in advance (at least 24 hours for wreaths).
-
Delivery: Use our Airway service. We'll bring the flowers to the hall 1–2 hours before the ceremony and hand them over to staff, so you don't need to worry about a thing.
