LETTER TRIBUTES
RED ROSE DAD TRIBUTE
ENDLESS LOVE DAD TRIBUTE
£155.00
A serene, light grey backdrop sets off an elegant "MOM" floral tribute, carefully arranged as a three-letter funeral design that would look at home in a quiet Mottingham churchyard or on the way to a service near New Eltham. Each letter is densely covered in pristine white chrysanthemums, the small, layered petals packed so tightly that they create a soft, velvety surface, like a calm blanket of blossoms. The outlines of the letters are strong and confident, ensuring the word "MOM" stands clear, yet the overall feeling remains tender and gentle. On the first "M," at the upper left angle, a cluster of vibrant fuchsia-pink roses nestles among smaller pale pink rosebuds and airy fronds of fern, bringing a fresh, living contrast to the simplicity of the white flowers. The centre "O" is mostly untouched, highlighted only by a single soft pink rose resting near its lower curve, a quiet, almost whispered symbol of love. The second "M" balances the composition with an identical spray of pink roses and fern at the top right side, giving the tribute a harmonious, mirrored look. Over the middle of the design, a neat white rectangular frame holds the words "3 LETTER Tribute" in clear white lettering, with a mix of clean sans serif and graceful script fonts that feel both modern and heartfelt. Just beyond the frame, you can glimpse more white chrysanthemum letters edged with the same pink rose accents, hinting at other custom tributes for names, initials, or special words. The image conveys a sense of intimate remembrance and local care, as if created by a Mottingham florist who understands how important it is to say goodbye with beauty and dignity.
3 LETTER TRIBUTE
£155.00
A dignified funeral tribute spells out "DAD" in large, upright letters, each one lovingly built on a sturdy frame and shown here against a bright white background that enhances the clarity of the design. Every curve and angle of the three letters is completely covered in tightly packed white chrysanthemums or similar button flowers, their uniform size and fullness giving a plush, cushion-like texture that suggests softness and care. Encircling the outer edge of each letter is a vibrant, deep green satin ribbon, gently ruffled so that its sheen catches the light and frames the tribute with a graceful line of colour. The mechanics are discreetly hidden, with only faint, dark horizontal bars visible behind the letters, hinting at the support that keeps the tribute proudly standing. On the upper left side of the first "D", a small spray of white freesias and fresh green foliage adds a touch of movement and gentle fragrance. Two elegant, arching green stems extend from this cluster across towards the middle, guiding the eye to a more elaborate spray that rests where the central "A" meets the first letter. Here, two rich purple calla lilies, with their sculptural trumpet forms, stand out against the white background of chrysanthemums, surrounded by more white freesia and glossy leaves. The final "D" carries a coordinating yet slightly more compact cluster of white blooms and greenery on its upper right curve, completing the visual flow. This traditional "DAD" tribute feels both personal and timeless, the sort of heartfelt floral arrangement a family in Mottingham might choose to honour a father at a local church, graveside, or cremation service, conveying love, respect, and quiet sorrow.
PEACEFUL DAD TRIBUTE
£160.00
The image presents a dignified four-letter floral tribute, designed for a funeral or memorial service, and posed against a smooth, light grey backdrop that keeps every detail of the flowers in clear view. Four individual floral letters form a short word, reminiscent of a name like KATE, each one crafted by hand from a generous covering of crisp white chrysanthemums. The tiny, densely packed blooms create a soft, cushion-like surface, their petals overlapping to give a sense of quiet comfort and tenderness. A slim edging of delicate pale pink ribbon or fabric traces the outline of each letter, with just enough colour to suggest affection and warmth without overwhelming the serenity of the white flowers. Tucked carefully into the letters are rich red roses, some arranged in small clusters, others nestled singly among the chrysanthemums, accompanied by sprays of fresh green foliage that might be ferns or ruscus. These roses, with their velvety, spiral centres, bring a poignant contrast, representing love, respect, and the depth of mourning. A dark grey, semi-transparent square sits centrally over part of the tribute, bordered by a narrow white frame. On this overlay, the wording "4 LETTER" appears in bold white type above the word "Tribute" written in a flowing script, suggesting both clarity and elegance. Through the gentle opacity of the overlay, hints of red petals and green leaves can still be made out, connecting the text to the floral craftsmanship beneath. The overall composition reflects the kind of tailored floral lettering families around Mottingham, New Eltham, and Grove Park might choose when they want a name or special word expressed in flowers as a final, personal farewell.
4 LETTER TRIBUTE
£200.00
This image captures a refined five-letter funeral tribute arranged with the calm precision of an experienced local florist, set against a smooth light grey backdrop that lets the flowers take centre stage. Large, freestanding letters, crafted from densely packed white chrysanthemums, stretch horizontally across the frame, their soft, domed petals creating a velvety, cloud-like surface. Each letter, part of a name that appears to read "JOHNA" though partially veiled, is crisply defined by a border of deep purple satin ribbon, the rich hue offering a respectful contrast that feels fitting for a service at a Mottingham crematorium or quiet churchyard. Scattered thoughtfully along the letters are small clusters of delicate pale pink and mauve spray roses, tucked into pockets of fresh greenery and elegant fern fronds. These touches of colour and texture add depth and movement, suggesting hands that have paused over each bloom with care and intention. Over the centre of the arrangement lies a softly opaque, darker grey square, accentuated by a white frame and bearing the inscription "5 LETTER Tribute" in white sans-serif and script fonts, clearly explaining the tribute's format and customisable nature. Though the photograph is still, it conveys a gentle sense of presence, as if the flowers are holding space for memory and shared stories. It is the kind of quietly beautiful, personalised floral lettering that families in Mottingham might choose to honour a cherished name, a pet name, or a single meaningful word at a final goodbye.

YELLOW ROSES DAD TRIBUTE
FOREVER CHERISHED DAD TRIBUTE
£165.00
The image shows a dignified "DAD" funeral tribute, composed as three robust letter shapes resting in a neat horizontal line against a bright white backdrop. Each letter is framed and padded with feathery green fern fronds, their deep emerald tones curving around the edges to give the word softness and strength at the same time. Inside this fern border, the florist has densely arranged snowy white chrysanthemums and wide, daisy-like white gerberas, building a comforting, cushiony surface. Nestled among the white blooms are clusters of golden yellow gerbera daisies and dainty yellow spray roses that brighten the letters, hinting at happy memories and the warmth of a father's presence. Pockets of rich purple lisianthus and small fuchsia or deep pink spray roses bring emotional depth, like quiet notes of sorrow and deep affection. You can spot tiny lavender-coloured filler flowers and crisp green button chrysanthemums tucked here and there, adding texture and a fresh garden feel reminiscent of peaceful corners around Mottingham, such as near the local churchyards and tree-lined roads. The letters are carefully aligned on slim, dark supports so that "DAD" is clear and readable from the front, perfect for display at a funeral service, wake, or memorial gathering. Every bloom faces outward, suggesting this has been made by an experienced Mottingham florist who understands how important it is for a family tribute to look beautiful both up close and from across the room. The overall mood is respectful, soothing, and deeply personal, capturing both loss and lasting love.
LOVING DAD TRIBUTE
£190.00
Against a smooth, medium-grey backdrop reminiscent of a soft overcast sky, a darker grey square sits perfectly centered, edged by a slim white line that makes it stand out with quiet importance. Inside this square, white typography clearly explains the product: at the top is a bold, oversized "7", underneath it the word "LETTER" in a neat uppercase sans-serif, and then "Tribute" written in a graceful, looping script that feels personal, almost like a name signed on a sympathy card. Peeking out from either side of this central graphic is a floral word tribute created for the much-loved "GRANDMA" in someone's life. Each letter is formed from a tight mass of white chrysanthemums or similar compact blooms, the petals layered so closely that they form a soft cushion of texture, the way funeral flowers often look when freshly arranged in a Mottingham workshop. Here and there, clusters of vivid purple flowers break through the white, accompanied by short stems of glossy green foliage that add depth and a natural rhythm along the letter shapes. The visible curve of the 'G' on the left and the sequence of partial letters stretching to the right suggest the full seven-letter word, even though the central panel overlaps them. The overall mood of the image is calm, respectful, and thoughtfully designed, echoing the quiet dignity of local funerals and memorials held around Mottingham. It serves as a visual example of how a seven-letter floral tribute can be used to spell a name, family title, or affectionate word to honour a grandmother with beauty and tenderness.
7 LETTER TRIBUTE
£330.00
PINK ROSES MUM TRIBUTE
FOREVER ADORED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
This image shows an elegant "OUR MUM" funeral flower tribute arranged in large, structured capital letters, presented against a clean white background so the craftsmanship is easy to imagine. Each individual letter is densely covered with tiny white chrysanthemums or similar florets, packed closely together to form a plush, seamless surface that appears soft and cloud-like to the touch. Around the outer edge of every letter runs a vivid red floral edging, probably composed of compact carnations or small red spray blooms; this border creates a defined outline that makes the wording clear even from a distance, a thoughtful detail for services in Mottingham's churches or crematorium chapels. Three distinctive rose sprays punctuate the design: deep red roses arranged with lush green leaves and delicate fern are placed between the "O" and "U", between the "U" and first "M", and again towards the right-hand side of the final "M". These rose accents bring depth and movement to the arrangement, echoing the tender love often felt for a mother. Subtle dark green bars link the letters from behind, hinting at the strong frame that supports the tribute while remaining visually discreet. The overall impression is of balance and calm: soft white petals, rich red detailing, and fresh greenery working together to convey respect and gratitude. This type of floral lettering is commonly chosen by Mottingham families as a centerpiece tribute for a beloved mum, whether displayed at a quiet service off Mottingham Road, a memorial gathering near Eltham Park, or as a loving final farewell on the day of the funeral. The design's clarity and serenity make it both striking and deeply comforting.
OUR MUM TRIBUTE
£290.00
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
PURPLE ACCENTED MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
In this image, a lovingly arranged funeral tribute spells "MUM" in bold, upright capital letters, floating on a plain white background so every detail of the floristry stands out clearly. The structure of each letter is hidden beneath a dense layer of small white chrysanthemum heads, carefully wired and placed until they form a perfectly even, pillow-like surface that feels soft and comforting to the eye. Their crisp white tones echo the quiet calm of early morning along Mottingham Road, while hints of dark green framework and ribbon at the base trace the outline of the design and ensure each letter stands steady. At the upper left shoulder of the first "M", a striking accent of fuchsia garden roses, smaller blush pink spray roses, and tightly closed buds rests on the white base like a corsage, threaded with airy green fern foliage. A second cluster nestles into the lower centre curve of the "U", drawing attention to the middle of the tribute, and a third mirrors the first, sitting proudly on the upper right of the last "M". These three islands of pink and green punctuate the white chrysanthemums with warmth and tenderness, much as family stories do during a service. The arrangement feels both traditional and personal, suitable for Mottingham families wanting something quietly elegant to honour a much-loved mother at a funeral, cremation, or memorial gathering. You can almost imagine this piece resting by the chapel doors in nearby Eltham or gently laid beside the graveside, offering colour, fragrance, and a final message of love in flowers.
PINK GARDEN MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A long, horizontal funeral tribute forms the word "MUM" in strong, clear capitals, laid out crisply against a bright white background so that every petal and contour can be seen. Each letter is densely covered with countless white spray chrysanthemums, their small, rounded florets layered so closely together that they create a velvety, snow-like surface. The brightness of the white blooms evokes calm and peace, while the subtle shadows between the petals add texture and depth. A slim band of dark green foliage and floral ribbon traces the outline of the letters and peeks through in places, showing how securely the stems are set into the frame and emphasising the skilled hand of the florist. Resting gently on this white canvas are three clusters of roses in soft peach and blush tones, positioned thoughtfully at the top left of the first "M," at the base of the "U," and at the top right of the final "M." Each little posy mixes open roses with tight buds, accompanied by airy fern fronds and darker, broader leaves that introduce movement and a natural garden feel. The result is a tender and elegant memorial arrangement, designed for a mother's funeral or celebration of life. It feels like a piece that could be prepared with great care in a Mottingham flower shop, ready for delivery to local services near Chislehurst or New Eltham, offering families a way to express deep affection, remembrance, and respect when words are difficult.
PEACH ACCENTS MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
PURPLE AND WHITE MUM TRIBUTE
PURPLE & WHITE MUM TRIBUTE
£155.00
A deeply personal funeral tribute spells out the word "MUM" in bold, upright letters, each one completely obscured by a lavish covering of flowers, as if resting on a white-draped stand in a Mottingham service chapel. The main body of every letter is made from compact, velvety chrysanthemums in shades of fuchsia-purple and deep magenta, their small petals layered densely so the overall impression is of a rich, textured carpet of colour. Tiny lime to jade-green centres peep from the heart of each bloom, giving a lively, almost glimmering effect that stops the design from feeling heavy and instead adds a sense of gentle energy and freshness. The edges of the letters are carefully finished with a ruffled, light pink ribbon, pleated with precision, which creates a soft frame and highlights the strong silhouettes of the "M", "U", and "M". Resting on the top left of the first "M", a small garden-style arrangement of bright pink roses and feathery fern foliage spills naturally over the cushion of chrysanthemums, suggesting flowers freshly gathered from local green spaces like Mottingham Playing Fields. At the base of the central "U", a tender cluster of blush pink and cream roses, variegated leaves, and tiny white filler flowers nestles into the curve, forming a quiet focal point of serenity. The second "M" mirrors the first with its top right corner adorned in the same deep pink roses and lush greenery, bringing balance and harmony. Crafted as a bespoke memorial, this "MUM" arrangement is the kind of tribute families in Mottingham and New Eltham might choose to honour a much-loved mother with grace, dignity, and enduring affection.

The image presents a serene funeral name tribute spelling out "KATE" in four bold, floral letters, laid out against a plain white background so that every nuance of the design stands out clearly. Each letter is formed from a dense bed of immaculate white chrysanthemums, their small, rounded heads tightly clustered to create a plush, velvety surface that feels calm and comforting, like a soft blanket of petals. Tracing the outline of each letter is a pale pink satin ribbon, gently ruffled, which adds a subtle blush of colour and lends the tribute a tender, feminine grace often chosen by families in Mottingham to reflect a gentle personality. Among the white petals, the florist has tucked in vibrant accent flowers and foliage. On the "K" and "T," elegant yellow-green cymbidium orchids appear, each bloom detailed with warm reddish-brown markings at the centre, surrounded by rich green leaves and feathery fern fronds that evoke the verdant corners of nearby Mottingham Woods. The "A" and "E" are each highlighted by a striking red anthurium, their glossy, heart-shaped bracts and prominent spadices introducing a sense of enduring love and strength. Slender green vines and tendrils curl gracefully across the letters, visually stitching them together so the name reads as one continuous, flowing tribute rather than four separate pieces. Overall, the arrangement conveys deep affection, remembrance, and quiet dignity, suitable for a funeral, chapel service, or graveside farewell in the Mottingham area, capturing the care and craftsmanship of a dedicated local florist.

The image presents a striking, custom funeral tribute that spells out "GRANDPA" in large, freestanding letters, each one overflowing with fresh white flowers. Every letter is completely covered in tightly packed white chrysanthemums or similar button-style blooms, giving the word a plush, velvety appearance, as if it were carved from soft snow. Tracing the outer edges of the letters is a slim border of pale lilac or soft lavender petals, a quiet band of colour that shapes each character and brings a subtle, comforting contrast. At several key points, the white is gently broken by clusters of peach roses and greenery: on the opening G, a small spray of roses is tucked alongside closed lily buds and glossy leaves; the first A carries a single rose set in rich foliage; the D repeats the cluster motif, echoing the G; and the final A is finished with another solitary peach rose. These accents look carefully placed rather than crowded, adding warmth and personality to the serene base. The letters are linked along a narrow dark frame, suggesting a strong stand designed to sit proudly at a crematorium chapel, church, or graveside service in and around Mottingham. With its calm whites, soft purples, and gentle peach tones, this floral name arrangement conveys love, gratitude, and a sense of peaceful farewell for a cherished grandad, as if crafted by an experienced local florist who understands the quieter streets, family homes, and close-knit community that gather to say goodbye.

BA TRIBUTE
BA PERSONALISED TRIBUTE
£100.00
The image shows a beautifully composed funeral flower arrangement spelling "GRANDMA" in large, upright capital letters, photographed against a simple, white studio-style backdrop so that every petal stands out. Each letter is densely covered in immaculate white cushion chrysanthemums, or similar small-headed blooms, creating a plush, cushiony surface that looks soft to the touch. A fine edging of pale lilac or light purple ribbon outlines the shape of each letter, adding a subtle glow of colour and giving the tribute a tranquil, almost spiritual feel, reminiscent of the peaceful green spaces around Mottingham's local churchyards. Rich red accent flowers are woven throughout the design with the restraint of an experienced local florist. The "G" is adorned with a tight cluster of deep red roses and a striking variegated red-and-cream calla lily, nestled securely into the curve of the letter. The first "A" is graced by a heart-shaped red anthurium lily, its smooth, waxy surface gleaming softly against the white background. At the centre of the tribute, the "M" carries another gathering of red roses paired with a matching red anthurium, creating a focal point of warmth and love. The final "A" repeats the theme with a single red anthurium bloom, tying the composition together. Hints of dark green foliage and a sturdy green frame peek out beneath the flowers, giving structure without distracting from the gentle message. This personalised sympathy tribute, likely created for a Mottingham family saying goodbye to a beloved grandmother, radiates respect, affection, and a sense of calm, making it suitable for display beside the coffin or at the front of a memorial service.
