Beautifully Crafted Tributes as Unique as the Life They Celebrate.

At Orchid Memories, we help families create meaningful tributes to honour their loved ones. Recently, we worked with Kay, who needed funeral stationery for her mum’s service. Initially, she requested an order of service, personalised funeral seeds, and a funeral photo board. After the funeral, she returned with a special request. She wanted us to create a memorial plaque to honour both her mum and dad and preserve her mum’s funeral flowers in resin.
Designing the Funeral Order of Service and Photo Board
Kay first came to us before the funeral, looking for a bespoke funeral order of service. We worked closely with her to create something that reflected her mum’s life and personality. The order of service followed a purple and white theme, which was a favourite of Kay’s mum. A personalised funeral order of service not only guides guests through the ceremony but also serves as a keepsake that honours the memory of a loved one.
In addition to the funeral order of service, we designed a funeral photo board. This board featured special moments from her mum’s life and added a personal touch to the ceremony. Displaying photos in this way helps celebrate the life that has been lived, and the board became a focal point during the service.
We also created funeral seeds for Kay. These personalised packets were given to guests to plant in memory of her mum. The idea of funeral seeds is becoming a popular way for families to offer guests a living memory that grows over time.
Creating a Memorial Plaque for the Garden
A few weeks after the funeral, Kay returned with a new request. She wanted a memorial plaque for her garden, where she had created a space to remember both her mum and dad. We designed the plaque to match the purple and white theme of the funeral order of service and funeral photo board. This helped create a cohesive tribute across all the elements we had produced for Kay.
The plaque for memorial featured a beautiful photo of her parents and a personalised poem. Kay wanted the poem to reflect both her mum and dad, as she had lost her father a few years earlier. After working with her to choose the perfect words, we printed the plaque on durable ACM metal. This material is perfect for outdoor use, ensuring the memorial plaque will last in her garden for years to come. To make it easy to display, we added a spike to the back, allowing Kay to place it securely in the ground.
Preserving Funeral Flowers in Resin
In addition to the memorial plaque, Kay asked us to preserve her mum’s funeral flowers into resin. Funeral flowers are a significant part of any service, but they don’t last forever. By preserving them in a large resin heart, we helped Kay keep the beauty of those flowers as a permanent reminder of her mum.
We carefully arranged the flowers in the resin heart, making sure to match the purple and white colour scheme that had been used for the funeral. Kay loved the result and shared that she planned to place the resin heart in her memorial garden, alongside the plaque.
Why Choose Funeral Flowers in Resin?
More families are choosing to preserve their funeral flowers into resin. Traditional flowers, while beautiful, fade with time. Preserving them in resin creates a lasting memory that can be displayed in your home or, like Kay, placed in a memorial garden.
At Orchid Memories, we offer several ways to preserve funeral flowers. Whether it’s a heart-shaped resin piece, a sphere, or something more customised, we ensure that your loved one’s flowers are beautifully preserved. Each piece is carefully crafted to retain the natural beauty of the flowers, making sure they stay as vibrant as the day they were collected.
Memorial Plaques: A Timeless Tribute
Personalised memorial plaques provide another way to create a lasting tribute. Whether placed in a garden or indoors, a plaque for memorial can feature special words, quotes, or images that honour the memory of your loved one. Like Kay’s memorial plaque, we can work with you to choose a design that reflects the person’s personality and style.
Our plaques are made from high-quality materials like ACM metal, which is ideal for outdoor conditions. If you’re planning a memorial garden, we can also add practical elements like spikes or stands to help you display the plaque easily.
Conclusion: Preserving Memories for a Lifetime
At Orchid Memories, we believe in helping families create personalised tributes that last. From funeral orders of service to funeral flowers preserved in resin and custom memorial plaques, we work closely with our clients to capture their loved ones’ legacies.
Kay’s project demonstrates how our services can extend beyond the funeral. We helped her design a beautiful funeral order of service, preserve the flowers in a resin heart, and create a memorial plaque that now sits in her memorial garden.
If you’re looking for ways to honour your loved one, whether through funeral stationery, a plaque memorial, or preserving funeral flowers into resin, we are here to help you.
