Funeral flowers

Which flowers are appropriate for a ceremony at the Biganos crematorium?

During the ceremony, the flowers surround the coffin, but they do not go inside the coffin. At the end, the family can keep them and place them in the memorial garden, at the scattering site. We hand-compose every tribute in Gujan-Mestras and deliver it to the crematorium before the ceremony.

Funeral home or Biganos crematorium: what's the difference?

They are two different places. The funeral home, also called a funeral parlor, receives the deceased before the funeral: the family can come there to pay their respects. The crematorium hosts the ceremony, then the cremation. We deliver flowers to both: just give us the place, the date, and the time.

Is it acceptable to bring flowers to a cremation?

Yes. Flowers decorate the room and surround the coffin during the ceremony, but they are not placed inside the coffin. At the end, the family may keep them and place them in the garden of remembrance.

Can we place flowers in the memorial garden?

Yes, it is open every day via the pedestrian gate. However, plaques or signs in the name of the deceased are not permitted there.

How long does a crematorium ceremony last?

About thirty minutes: the entrance, the tributes, a moment of reflection, then the final farewell at the casket.
