If someone has died
You probably do not want to look through a website right now. This page is three facts and a telephone number.

Or LINE @bloomblossom-demo. Lek will ask three questions and take it from there. You do not need to know what to order.
A demo number on a demo site. It is not connected to anything.
One: a wreath and a bouquet are different things
A wreath (พวงหรีด) goes to the temple and stands at the sala where the funeral is held. Everyone who attends sees it, and it carries a printed ribbon with your name on it.
A bouquet goes to the family — their home, or their office. Only they see it.
They are different acts and neither replaces the other. Most people who ring us are not sure which one they mean, and that is a normal thing not to know.
Two: what it costs
- Wreath to the temple — standard, large, double
- ฿1,200 · ฿1,800 · ฿2,500
- Bouquet to the family
- ฿800 – ฿1,500
- The ribbon, and the card
- Free
Nothing here is a lesser flower at a lower price. Carnations are correct for this and they last ten days, which matters in a week when nobody is changing the water.
Three: when it has to be ordered by
- A wreath, for this evening
- Order by 15:00
- A bouquet to the family, today
- Order by 13:00
We deliver wreaths to the sala before 5:00 PM, before people arrive, and Ton carries it in and stands it up rather than leaving it at the gate. If you do not know the sala number we will find it — he asks at the temple office.
A Thai temple funeral usually runs several nights. It is reasonable to ask the family which night, and nobody will mind you asking.
If you do not know what to write
If you do not know what to write, say so. We will send three lines for the occasion and you pick one or change it. Most people do this and it is not unusual.
Ribbons take up to 60 characters, in Thai or English, and we read them back to you before anything is printed.
