Using Flowers in an Ash Scattering Ceremony

August 1, 2010 urngarden.com

We were thinking about going to the lake this weekend, and evidently so our some of our friends and family.  We’ve had several calls lately from all over the country asking questions about water burial.  They want to go to the lake, off the dock, maybe in a boat.

We’ve been cultivating the beauty of fresh flowers as a cool respite from this summer’s heat.  The fragrance and delicate beauty have been a bright spot in challenging world.

Wreaths and flower petals are a simple and beautiful touch to an ash scattering ceremony, whether it’s at the lake, on the shore, or at sea.

An inexpensive wreath can be made with daisies, the April birth flower.

This might not be the best choice for a water burial, but I do love this wreath created with succulents.
