Sympathy Flowers in Oahu, Hawaii: What to Send, When to Order, and How to Choose the Right Arrangement
Losing someone is never easy — and knowing what flowers to send, and when, can feel overwhelming during an already difficult time. This guide covers the most common sympathy flower arrangements we offer on Oahu, when to order, and how to get started.
Types of Sympathy Flower Arrangements
Each arrangement serves a different purpose depending on the service and your relationship to the family. Here's what to know.
Standing Sprays — from $225
A large, lush arrangement displayed on an easel near the casket or altar. One of the most traditional and visible tributes — typically sent by immediate family, close friends, or organizations like a workplace or church group.
Casket Sprays — from $275
An elegant arrangement draped across the top of the casket. Usually arranged by immediate family. We work with you on bloom selection, color, and incorporating Hawaiian elements like maile or ti leaf upon request.
Cross Casket Arrangements — from $275
A densely filled floral cross resting on top of the casket — a meaningful tribute for faith-based services. Common in Catholic, Christian, and other Hawaiian church communities.
Heart Wreaths — from $325
Displayed on an easel, available in open-center or fully filled closed styles. A timeless symbol of love — often chosen for spouses, parents, and long-term partners.
Sympathy Arrangements (Home Delivery) — from $250
A beautiful fresh arrangement sent directly to the family's home — before or after the service. A warm, personal expression of condolence that the family can enjoy for days. View all sympathy arrangements →
When to Order Sympathy Flowers in Oahu
For the service: Order at least 48–72 hours in advance for delivery to the funeral home or chapel.
For the family's home: There's no wrong time — sending flowers a week after the service is just as meaningful.

Best Flowers for a Hawaiian Sympathy Arrangement
White flowers are universally appropriate — white lilies, white orchids, and white plumeria are all meaningful choices. For a distinctly Hawaiian tribute, we incorporate maile, ti leaf, pikake, and tropical blooms like anthuriums and bird of paradise. We can also create a traditional Hawaiian sympathy lei upon request.
