A traditional Christian cross fashioned from fresh flowers is photographed on a pure white surface, allowing its colours and textures to stand out with quiet dignity. The shape is completely filled with white spray chrysanthemums, their petite blooms massed together to create a luxurious, cushioning effect. No stems or gaps are visible; instead, the viewer sees a continuous expanse of white petals, evoking purity, peace, and remembrance. Encasing this floral base, a deep royal blue satin ribbon follows the outline of the cross, its smooth, lustrous finish giving the piece a neat, tailored border. At the centre where the arms intersect, a lush spray of blue flowers adds drama and focus: richly coloured blue carnations with frilled edges cluster together, interwoven with more slender, spiked blue florets that resemble delphiniums or orchids. These flowers emerge from a bed of dark green foliage and fern, whose feathery textures and deeper tones provide contrast and depth, helping the central arrangement stand proud against the white backdrop. Along the vertical stem of the cross, the tribute becomes even more personal as the word "DAD" is spelled out using the same royal blue ribbon, carefully looped into distinct letters and pressed into the chrysanthemum base. This detail sits harmoniously within the design rather than on top of it, suggesting careful, experienced hands at work. The lighting is even, with a gentle shadow beneath the cross indicating its substantial size. This is the kind of bespoke memorial piece often prepared by Florist North Ockendon for services in and around the village, from quiet church funerals to graveside tributes in the surrounding countryside, offering families a tender, enduring symbol of love for a father.

A large, handcrafted floral cross designed as a remembrance for a father is shown laid out on a bright white background, its form simple yet deeply expressive. The cross is entirely made up of densely packed white spray chrysanthemums, their small, rounded heads forming a smooth, padded surface that looks gentle to the touch. This unbroken blanket of white is framed by a border of royal blue satin ribbon, which runs along every edge of the cross, catching the light with a subtle sheen and lending the arrangement a polished, ceremonial air. At the centre, where the arms of the cross meet, a prominent spray of rich blue flowers rises above the chrysanthemum base. Ruffled blue carnations with layered petals pair beautifully with finer blue florets suggestive of delphiniums or orchids, creating a multi-textured cluster that feels both elegant and heartfelt. Around them, deep green fern fronds and leaves arch outward, their natural curves and varied shapes adding movement and contrast. On the lower section of the vertical arm, the word "DAD" is lovingly formed from the same royal blue ribbon, each letter gracefully looped and anchored into the cushion of white blooms so that the tribute remains unified and flowing. The soft, even lighting and faint shadow beneath the cross suggest a carefully staged photograph, highlighting the craftsmanship involved. This floral cross would feel fitting at a funeral or memorial gathering in North Ockendon or nearby Upminster, offering a serene, meaningful way for family and friends to honour and remember a much-loved father.

    The tribute was perfect. I requested to have the ribbon color changed and they were nice enough to arrange that. Good florists.
