Christmas grave decorations in Edwardsville
December is the hardest month for families who live far from the cemetery. We place evergreen wreaths, grave blankets, poinsettias and solar candles at cemeteries around Edwardsville, and send photographs before Christmas so you can see the grave looking cared for.
Eastern edge of our regular Illinois work.
What we place at Christmas
- Fresh or permanent evergreen wreaths, sized to the marker
- Grave blankets for flat markers and lawn sections
- Poinsettias where the cemetery permits them
- Solar memorial lights — safe where open flame is not allowed
- Snow cleared from the face of the stone before photographing
Book by the first of December. Winter decorations stay in place into the new year, and we return to remove them so nothing is left to freeze into the ground.
Getting to Edwardsville
Edwardsville is about 105 miles from our base at 9775 Deer Run Rd, Williamsburg. We cover Glen Carbon, Collinsville and Troy IL on the same trip, so graves in more than one cemetery can often be done in a single visit. Because Edwardsville sits toward the edge of our 150-mile radius, we run this area on scheduled dates — booking two weeks ahead makes a real difference, especially for Memorial Day and Christmas.

Questions from families near Edwardsville
How far do you travel?
We serve cemeteries within about 150 miles of Williamsburg, Missouri. That covers Callaway, Boone, Cole and Audrain counties, the St. Charles and St. Louis area, the Lake of the Ozarks, Rolla, Hannibal, Kirksville, and parts of west-central Illinois. If you are close to the edge of that range, call and ask — we often travel further for full seasonal plans.
What if I do not know exactly where the grave is?
That is very common, and it is not a problem. Give us the cemetery name and the full name on the marker, along with a year if you know it. We locate the stone, photograph it, and send you the picture to confirm before we decorate anything.
When will I get the photographs?
Usually within a few hours of the visit, and always the same day. Each set includes the finished arrangement, a close view of the marker, and a wider shot of the plot and its surroundings.
Do you use fresh or artificial flowers?
Both, and the right choice depends on the date. Fresh is beautiful for a specific day such as a birthday or a funeral anniversary. UV-stable silk is better for a whole season, especially in July heat or December wind.
