Spice things up with a Valentine’s Day flower delivery
It should go without saying that your choice of Valentine’s Day flowers is extremely important. Different flowers have different meanings and you want to make sure that you are sending the right message to your spouse, partner, or even your secret crush. Regardless of the type of romantic flowers you wish to send, the way in which the flower delivery is made can gain you extra points!
Firstly, it’s important to remember that florists are extremely busy around this time of year. There is a huge demand for beautiful bouquets and you will notice plenty of red and pink. Roses are particular popular for this occasion and you will also come across a fair number of special deals and bargains if you take the time to browse. When you see FREE flower delivery, it’s important to pay close attention to the florist’s pricing. For example, The shipping might be free, but the bouquet itself could cost more than fresh flowers plus delivery from another florist. Always compare the final price after any extra fees have been added.
Whether you choose to shop at your corner flower shop or trusted online florist, there are two main delivery options. You could have the florist make the delivery on your behalf or you could do so in person. Your preference will largely depend on your relationship with your Valentine. For example, if you want to surprise your secret crush, you might prefer an anonymous flower delivery and, in this case, you will need your florist to help you out. If you want to include a kiss with your flowers, you will need to make the delivery yourself. This is usually perfect for couples in relationships or married couples. You are already comfortable enough to display at least some degree of affection in public.
If you do plan on delivering the flowers in person, you will need to make sure that the florist delivers to your work or home address. When transporting the flowers, you will need to make sure that they are properly supported. If they don’t come in a vase, you will need to put them in one with just a little bit of fresh water so that they don’t wilt. Prop the vase up on the floor of you car and make sure that you use plenty of padding to keep it from tipping over. A crate or box is perfect and you can stuff it with packaging or even newspaper. Keep your flowers away from the heater, cold air, or anything that might affect them.
Another great idea, if you live with your Valentine, is to order the flowers and set them in a vase at home. Instead of taking them to your partner or spouse only to have them return with the bouquet, you can arrange the stems perfectly in a vase with fresh water. Perhaps place some luxury chocolates next to the flower arrangement for that extra touch of romance.
If you really want to surprise your Valentine, you could reserve a table at their favourite restaurant and ask them if it’s OK to have the florist deliver the flowers directly to them. They can then set the flowers on the table and you can take them home once you are done. Remember, if the tables at the restaurant are small, you might want to opt for a small bouquet so that you don’t have to struggle to communicate with your Valentine.
