Choosing the Right Funeral Arrangement

The right arrangement depends on the type of service the family has chosen. Amherst offers everything from simple cremation to full memorial services, and we can match the arrangement to the setting:

  • Funeral Arrangements

    These medium to large sized arrangements, typically designed in a triangular shape, are often placed on the altar or pedestals. They are considered appropriate to be sent by anyone wanting to express their sympathy and honour those who have passed.

  • Sympathy Arrangements

    These small to medium sized arrangements are often designed in vases or baskets and are delivered to the service, the reception, or the family's home. They are considered are a more personal or private way to express your condolences to the family.

  • Standing Sprays and Wreaths

    These large, formal tributes are often displayed at the front of the service. These are typically sent by immediate family, close friends, colleagues or employers wanting to express their condolences and honour life of those who have passed on.

  • Casket Sprays and Adornments

    These very large sprays are only created to rest on top of the casket and and adornments within it. These designs are typically ordered by the immediate family.

If you are unsure what to send, call us at 604-875-7777 and we will help you choose something fitting for the family's plans.

Serving Vancouver Families with Care

Amherst Funeral and Cremation Services operates from Suite 1209 at 207 West Hastings Street — a heritage building in the heart of downtown Vancouver. For approximately 17 years, they have provided families across the Lower Mainland with full-service funeral, cremation, burial, and memorial options, with a particular reputation for affordable and straightforward cremation packages.

What sets Amherst apart is their accessibility and flexibility. Families can meet with Amherst staff at their downtown office or arrange an in-home appointment, which removes the pressure of visiting a funeral home during a difficult time. Their service area extends across the Lower Mainland, and they also operate a Coquitlam location for families in the Tri-Cities area.

Nature's Wonders Florist has experience delivering to the range of venues Amherst works with across Metro Vancouver. Because Amherst is an office-based provider rather than a traditional funeral home with an on-site chapel, we take extra care to confirm the service location and coordinate delivery timing with their staff. Whether your flowers are going to a crematorium hall, a rented ceremony space, or the family's dining room table, we make sure they arrive where they need to be.
