Sending flowers for different occasions is a wonderful way to express your feelings. You can send more formal arrangements for business associates or something more intimate to friends. Deciding to send flowers is the perfect way to say that you are thinking of someone and want to wish them happiness.
Sending flowers to your romantic interest is a great way to spark a new relationship. Your love interest will think you are very special for thinking of them. You can get an idea of the flowers that your love likes, or if there are any allergies, by seeking the advice of family and friends. Continue to send flowers as the relationship develops.
Many flowers have carried traditional meanings for centuries. Many people choose flowers based on the messages that they intend to send. Famously, red roses are a way to say "I love you." One red rose can send a message more effectively than a huge array of different flowers. Pink roses send the message that "I like you," if you're not yet willing to commit to red roses.
Flowers are appropriate to give to a performer or dancer after a musical or show, especially if the performer is a family member. Flowers will show that you enjoyed the performance and appreciate the effort. Sporting events are also a time to show your appreciation with flowers. Applause is fantastic but flowers will represent a longer lasting appreciation.
Meaningful life events are a wonderful time to send flowers. Birthdays are always a good choice and you can even send the number of flowers equal to the age of the person receiving the flowers. Anniversaries are also a good time to send flowers. Receiving the same type of flowers that your spouse sent to you for the very first time is so romantic! Another great time for sending flowers is for the birth of a child or a grandchild.
Sadder times also are a good time to express your sympathy and send flowers to offer cheer and comfort. When there is a death, flowers or a live plant celebrate life and respect those who have gone. For a person who is ill, flowers show that someone is thinking of you and pulling for your recovery. A great time to send them is after the funeral or after a person has been home from the hospital for awhile, after most of the floral gifts have ceased.
There are many other special occasions that are made brighter with the gift of flowers, such as graduations, a new home or a new job. Another great occasion is a personal visit when you bring flowers as part of your visit. In winter, when there are few flowers around, a floral offering can make any day a special one.
