We just did this with my dad last week. In the obit, we stated locations to make contributions in my dad's name in lue of flowers. We did have a few people send flowers to the funeral home for the family calling times (wake) and for the memorial service. They were then transferred to the cemetary. One family did choose to send a plant to the house but the rest that chose to send something, sent flowers for the service.
