For those of us living in the real world, we know Valentine’s Day means something different for all of us. Whether you’re with the love of your life, single, or just over it all – we’ve got you all covered with great options to celebrate the holiday in style.
Our favorite new trend – and a wonderful excuse to celebrate our best gals. Celebrated February 13th, it’s a day dedicated to friendship and showering the women in our lives. This year, we’re all about the tulips for Galentine’s gifting.
Inspired by a client who described herself as feeling ‘prickly’ about the looming holiday, we’ve launched a cactus collection. Know someone who’s just not feeling the love? This might make for a good laugh – and looks pretty killer too.
Stuck at home for the holiday and feeling a little blue? This year, we’re serving up a lush centerpiece style design that is sure to make you forget your dining at your kitchen table. **Flowers best served with a delicious meal from one of our favorite local spots like Stomping Ground, Junction, or Mia’s, to name a few.
For the woman who doesn’t love flowers, we’ve stocked up with beautiful green options from orchids to succulents to fig trees. Both lasting and trendy, plants are a great way to celebrate the day and enjoy for months to come.
For those of us who love Valentine’s Day and believe it’s best celebrated with big, beautiful bouquets of flowers (yay!), we’ve got you covered on that front too. From gorgeous peonies and garden roses to delicate sweet peas and ranunculus, our coolers will be packed and ready. Hop over to our website for easy online ordering and dozens of gorgeous options.
Wishing everyone a day filled with love and pretty flowers!
