A Personal and Respectful Tribute from We Found Love Florist
At We Found Love, a beloved independent florist based in Rosemount, Aberdeen, we understand that remembering loved ones is a deeply personal and emotional act. Flowers have long been used to express love, respect, and remembrance — particularly when visiting a gravesite. That’s why we offer a dedicated graveside flower delivery service across Aberdeen and surrounding areas, designed to help you honour the memory of someone special, even if you can’t be there in person.
Our graveside delivery service is available within a 16-mile radius of our Aberdeen florist shop. Whether you live locally or are organising flowers from afar, our team is here to support you with compassion and care every step of the way.
What Is a Graveside Flower Delivery Service?
Graveside delivery is a specialist service where we deliver fresh floral tributes directly to a gravesite on your behalf. We handcraft the arrangement, transport it to the cemetery, and carefully place it at the grave — ensuring the flowers are presented respectfully and with dignity.
This service is especially useful if:
-
You no longer live in Aberdeen but wish to remember a loved one locally
-
You have mobility issues or health concerns preventing you from visiting the cemetery
-
You want to mark special dates, anniversaries, or family traditions
-
You are organising a tribute for a family member or friend living far away
At We Found Love, we treat every graveside delivery as a privilege — and we’re proud to offer this thoughtful option to the community.
Why Send Flowers to a Grave?
Placing flowers on a grave is a longstanding tradition across cultures and faiths. It’s a simple but powerful gesture that says: You are remembered. You are loved. Whether it’s a single rose, a hand-tied bouquet, or a seasonal wreath, floral tributes can offer comfort to those left behind and help keep a loved one’s memory alive.
Some of the reasons our customers choose to send flowers to a grave include:
-
Marking the anniversary of a passing
-
Celebrating the birthday of the deceased
-
Honouring a parent on Mother’s Day or Father’s Day
-
Observing Christmas, Easter, or religious holidays
-
Memorialising wedding anniversaries or special dates
-
Providing comfort on personal visits to the cemetery
-
Commemorating national events like Remembrance Day

Step 1: Choose Your Flowers
We offer a wide selection of sympathy flowers and memorial arrangements. These include:
-
Seasonal posies and hand-tied bouquets
-
Traditional funeral-style wreaths
-
Floral hearts and crosses
-
Loose, natural-style tributes

Custom designs using specific flowers or colours
If you have something particular in mind — such as roses, lilies, thistles, or wildflowers — just let us know. Our florists are happy to accommodate bespoke requests where possible.
Step 2: Provide the Details
When placing your order in person or over the phone, we’ll ask for:
-
The full name of the person being remembered
-
The name and address of the cemetery
-
If known, the section, lair number, or any other details that help us locate the grave
Step 3: First-Time Location Confirmation
If it’s your first time ordering with us for a particular gravesite, we kindly ask you to send us helpful location details via email. Please include:
-
The name of the cemetery
-
The exact location of the grave (section, lair, etc.)
-
Any identifying markers or directions that might help our team
Please email this information to info@wefoundlove.co.uk before delivery. We do not require or provide photographs of the grave or the arrangement.
Step 4: We Handle the Rest
Once everything is confirmed, we’ll prepare your chosen tribute and deliver it with care. Our experienced team ensures the flowers are securely and respectfully placed at the graveside.
Types of Tributes Available
Choosing the right arrangement depends on the occasion and personal preference. Here are some of the most popular types of graveside flowers we create:
Hand-Tied Bouquets
Elegant and simple, hand-tied bouquets are suitable for laying directly on a grave. They can be styled with seasonal flowers or specific blooms that held meaning for the person being honoured.
Wreaths and Circular Tributes
The circular shape of a wreath symbolises eternal life. We can create traditional green wreaths, floral wreaths, or more decorative versions depending on your preference.
Crosses and Hearts
Floral crosses and heart-shaped tributes are symbolic and heartfelt, often used for religious observances or significant dates.
Potted Plants and Seasonal Arrangements
Some customers prefer longer-lasting tributes such as flowering plants or potted arrangements that can stay in place for several days or weeks.
Ideal Flowers for Graveside Tributes
When choosing flowers for a graveside tribute, many people select blooms that carry personal meaning or are traditionally associated with remembrance:
-
Lilies – Purity, peace, and spiritual renewal
-
Roses – Love and respect (red), remembrance (white), friendship (yellow)
-
Carnations – Devotion, remembrance, and admiration
-
Chrysanthemums – Traditionally used for memorials across Europe
-
Iris – Faith, hope, and wisdom
-
Gladioli – Strength of character
-
Thistles – A Scottish touch, symbolising resilience and honour
If you’re unsure what to choose, we’re happy to help guide you based on the occasion or relationship.

-
Anniversaries of a passing

Birthdays of the deceased

Religious holidays (Christmas, Easter, All Saints’ Day)
