arrangements
Ordered groupings made
Arrangements are things put in order or organized for a purpose.
You make arrangements for a trip, for childcare, for a funeral.
A flower arrangement is blooms organized artfully.
A musical arrangement adapts a composition for different instruments or voices: a jazz arrangement of a classical piece.
The word implies deliberate organization rather than happenstance.
