Do I Need To Tell My Florist About the Funeral Details for the Flowers?
Today’s funeral FAQ is “do I need to tell my florist about the funeral details for the flowers?” And the answer on two scenarios is, No, you don’t.
If you ask me to order the flowers from the florist for you, I will pass on the details so you don’t need to. If, on the other hand, you want to go to the florist and touch and feel flowers and select the tribute for your loved one, then all you need to do is tell them the name of the deceased, which you will anyway.
And you need to tell them that I’m handling the funeral arrangements and the florist will contact me and make sure that they are delivered, when they need to be. Where they need to be, in time for the funeral.
