Do you want flowers at your funeral?

saw one today with no flowers kinda sad just interested in what you think ?

Do you want flowers at your funeral?
Heck yeah. I want flowers and a marching band and some of the freaky acrobats from Cirque de Soliei.
Reply:No - it%26#039;s a bit late to buy me them then!


I do want to be buried where there are lots of trees though so that visitors can appreciate them.
Reply:Sure. I%26#039;ll be dead so I won%26#039;t get to see it. Can you get e-mail in heaven?
Reply:Yes, I want flowers at my funeral, but I want to be cremated and scattered over the ocean and then flowers tossed in after.
Reply:Nah, just lots of Whiskey and Wine!!
Reply:Yes, I would want flowers. I would hope the people I rub elbows with would care enough to send something thoughtful like that...but more importantly, I would want a room full of people! I think people taking time out of their day to pay their respects is even more important. So, for my funeral, I would want standing room only, people of every race, a powerpoint, and a sermon on salvation.
Reply:I would want some flowers but I do know some families that only use greenery on top of the casket. Some families request that people make donations to a charity in lieu of flowers.
Reply:For myself, I could care less. I%26#039;ll be dead, after all. But for the family, yes I do. Understandably, not a huge number of flowers, since many people look at them and think %26quot;how much better to donate the money to charity X!%26quot; That%26#039;s true, but if you%26#039;re going to go that route, skip the whole funeral and donate the money.





Either way, the funeral is for the family; so a reasonable number of flowers is probably the best compromise.
Reply:No. And I don%26#039;t want people looking at me laying in a casket either. Where ever I am when I die, my family has been instructed to send my body to the nearest crematorium and then spread my ashes of the neatest body of water.
Reply:Absolutely not. Why would I want flowers! I will be dead and won%26#039;t be able to appreciate them. What a waste of money. Of course you%26#039;re making the florist happy! If you want to honour me, please make a donation to a charity in memory of me. Now that makes sense and it will benefit somebody that%26#039;s alive!

Reply:I want BALLOONS I love balloons and I don%26#039;t want people crying over me or giving me those flowers in thos ugly baskets to throw on top my grave.





Balloons, music dancing and good food. Its a celebration of my life, not a goodbye.
Reply:My will specifies that in lieu of flowers, I would prefer donations would be made to The American Cancer Society, The American Kidney Foundation, or local humane societies. I think any monies spent would do more good at one of these (or other) charitable organizations.
Reply:Some people request donations to a charity instead of flowers. I would like flowers from family, loved ones, and donations to a charity of my choice from associates.
Reply:I want to remain immortal and young looking even after three thousand years.
Reply:Funeral flowers are so overrated -- just give money to build a playground somewhere and cremate me!
Reply:Bring me flowers during my lifetime. Don%26#039;t bother once I%26#039;m dead -- I won%26#039;t be there to enjoy them!
Reply:flowers or no flowers is okay with me. but i want my ipod turn on with fully charged battery inside my coffin with the earphone on.


with the selected folder, full of my fave songs.
Reply:No, I can%26#039;t appreciate them so why waste them.





I%26#039;d rather someone planted a tree for me.
Reply:No thanks. No funeral. Just a bunch of friends and family. Lots of beer, liquor and music as they toss my ashes over the cliff.
Reply:Not really, i wouldnt want flowers to be killed just for the purpose of my funeral. I want a crazy funeral, like pop music and people dressed in pink.
Reply:hmmm, that%26#039;s odd. Yes, I definitely want flowers at my funeral. Traditionally, the family splits up the planters afterwards and it is another way or remembering those who have passed.
Reply:No. Donate the money to my kid%26#039;s college education fund instead! lol
Reply:To be honest with you I like the design,but I will be gone so it won%26#039;t make much of a difference and spending so much money on me when Iam not really around to see,to me seems kind of worthless and that money could go towards something else! I would appreciate the thought and care,and I understanding wanting to feel comfortable and the area nice and busy,but it doesn%26#039;t bother me that much.
Reply:I will be cremated and my ashes spread over Wrigley Field.





No flowers but you may drink a budweiser in my honor.
Reply:Wouldnt bother me as i would be dead but probably nice for grieving relatives to lighten proceedings a little--if you have any
Reply:i don%26#039;t want a funeral at all - just cremated and my ashes spread on my wife%26#039;s Corn Flakes
Reply:If it is my funeral, I must assume that I am dead and do not care what earthly rituals are performed or how my body is dispersed of or if there are flowers and any kind of ornamentation....so no I don%26#039;t really care, to me it is just a way of the florists to make money on the grieving of the loved ones left behind...just my humble opinion.
Reply:Yes of course! Giving flowers is a show of love.
Reply:I don%26#039;t even want flowers now, let alone when I can%26#039;t enjoy them. I think FTD is a great big scam!!!





On the other hand, my wife loves flowers, and thinks a gift of flowers is just wonderful!





So, since she%26#039;ll be there alive to enjoy your flowers, yes, send them. Thanks!





I%26#039;d rather go enjoy our back-yard garden, and decorate with undying silk flowers, and give the room the scent of flowers via air freshening Pot Pouree.
Reply:Yes. pink ones.
Reply:well one or kind a nice but if over loaded would be waste of money, I remember my father funeral 4 years ago I know it is emotional time so my older brother start pick out a bunch of flower the total cost was about $2000.00 and there a bunch more flowers from friend I think that is a wasted of money.
