I am so sorry for your loss

Losing a loved one is a difficult and emotional time that can be somewhat overwhelming; so I do hope that I can steer you through the process.
Below you will find my casket designs, other floral tributes, thanksgiving 'wake' reception, sympathy & memorial flowers. All designs are eco friendly & recyclable with some pieces; fully 'compostable.' I use eco-bio trays, agra wool and when needed; moss mechanics.
Together we can create a meaningful way to honour your loved one's memory by using pretty seasonal flowers which, during the growing season are grown right here in my garden allotment. When necessary my designs are supplemented further with locally sourced Dorset flowers from my fellow flower farmers or at the very least, with 'British grown' flowers from trusted wholesalers. You can be sure that your tribute will be good for the environment too.
I find it a huge honour to be invited to provide flowers to celebrate your special loved one, a trust that I don't take lightly. I want to make sure that I get it just right. Lets create a floral tribute that truly reflects your loved one’s character, their favourite flowers, colours, & scents
Please feel free to contact me for a bespoke or more personal chat about the different options available so that I can help you step by step through each stage
With my deepest sympathies. Claire xx
ACCREDITATION & MEMBERSHIPS
CASKET
TRIBUTES
Casket Tributes come in an array of designs: from less formal hand tied sheafs to the more commonly found, loosely arranged double or single ended sprays. Less common still are caskets dressed with pretty floral wreaths. Let me help you decide what would be the best casket tribute for your family

“I cannot express enough gratitude for the beautiful casket spray you created for Jane. It was a stunning arrangement filled with all her favourite flowers...it perfectly captured her & reflected her life long love for her garden. Thank you so much"

“Thank you so much for Dad's wonderful flowers. They brought so much colour & celebration to the proceedings...it reflected his spirit perfectly. thank you for making it so easy to sort out too especially during such a difficult time for the whole family"
CASKET & SYMPATHY
SHEAFS
Pretty flower sheafs are more informal that the arranged casket sprays and can either be added or designed for the casket instead of the spray. Sheafs are also a great option for floor sympathy flowers from extended family or friends that wish to give flowers; flower tributes that will not actually accompany the casket but can be placed in the courtyard or grave area.

The Arrangements
ENQUIRE
Please do not hesitate to contact me to make an enquiry and I will get back to you with any further information required.
It would be great if you would enquire or order at least 1 week prior to the funeral to allow us to have enough time to plan together your floral tributes. An order confirmation with your details will be emailed to you to check over.
CONFIRM
Once you receive your 'order confirmation' you will need to let me know asap if you would like me to make any changes to the details. Confirmation of your order given 48 hours prior to the service will allow me enough time to cut (or source) the flowers & make sure they are in full bloom & properly conditioned ready for your service
PAYMENT
Once the final details have been confirmed I will email through an invoice.
Payment will need to be made prior to the date of the service
DELIVERY
If you have not already done so, I will call the undertakers on your behalf to confirm the date and time that the delivery of the casket tributes must be delivered. Some undertakers prefer the day before, whilst others have no 'cooler' storage capacity; and prefer the flowers to be delivered prior to the hearse departing on the day of the service
​
The casket tribute(s) and any other tributes which will accompany the hearse on your loved ones final journey
will be delivered to the undertakers as requested
collection
Any other flower tributes that are not to 'accompany' the hearse, including church service flowers, and wake reception flowers should be collected directly from Lopmint & Purdy studio the day prior to the service. On request and subject to availability, local delivery can be made for a charge if you prefer
hire returns
For any 'service' flowers that have used urns or vases, these should be returned to Lopmint & Purdy within two weeks of the service to ensure that your deposit can be refunded
