You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“I stopped by last Friday and ordered a last min flower arrangement. If I remember her name correctly, I believe it was Dawn that helped me (apologies if I got that wrong!). She put together a wonderful and beautiful arrangement within my budget with my request to make a unique arrangement with a Halloween twist fitting for one of our beloved colleague’s last day. I loved what she did and so did my colleague, well received! Will def be back in the future!”

“Working with Nola Flora for my wedding was such a great experience! Ashley was so amazing to work with and super responsive with any questions or requests we had. The only thing I knew for sure that I wanted with my florals was cascading orchids on my bouquet. I showed her a few inspiration photos as well as the colors of the bridesmaids dresses, and she brought everything together even better than I could've dreamed! I absolutely loved my bouquet as well as all the other arrangements they designed. She was super knowledgeable about what would fit best and where in the space. I will definitely be going to Nola Flora for any future arrangements I may need!”

“I can't even describe how wonderful it was to work with Nola Flora for my wedding day! I planned my entire wedding remotely and they made the entire process so easy and helped me create a vision that was better than I could have imagined!! Honestly, this was the only part of my wedding that was zero stress from start to finish. When I had an unexpected venue change, Ashley and her team were SO flexible and made amazing decor recommendations to fit the venue and budget. From the delivery of the bouquets, floral arrangements, and decor to their various places everything was so professionally and seamlessly done! I remember looking at the setup before the event for the first time in complete shock at how phenomenal the arrangements and decor were. Nearly a month after the wedding, people are still reaching out to me just to compliment how beautiful everything looked--and I truly cannot take credit for any of it!! The florists here are true artists and definitely know how to elevate a space into something unforgettable! I am so appreciative and thankful I chose Nola Flora to work with on this special day.”
