Beyond the Bouquet: Adding Personal Touches
Flowers are a wonderful start, but adding a personal touch can elevate your gift even further. Consider including a handwritten card expressing your love and appreciation. Share a favorite memory from the past five years or write about your hopes for the future. You could also add a small, thoughtful gift that complements the flowers, such as her favorite chocolates, a bottle of wine, or a piece of jewelry.
Pro Tip: Pay attention to the vase or container the flowers are arranged in. A stylish vase can enhance the overall presentation and serve as a lasting keepsake. Alternatively, you could choose a container that reflects her personality or style.
Timing is Everything
To ensure your flowers arrive fresh and on time, it’s best to order them a few days in advance, especially if you're opting for a custom arrangement. Bloom Boom offers same-day delivery in many areas, but planning ahead gives you peace of mind and allows the florist ample time to create the perfect bouquet. For long-lasting blooms, be sure to follow the care instructions provided by your florist. Change the water regularly, trim the stems, and keep the flowers away from direct sunlight and heat.
Making it Last: Flower Care Tips
To maximize the lifespan of your anniversary flowers, here are a few simple tips:
- Trim the Stems: Upon arrival, trim the stems at a 45-degree angle to help them absorb water more efficiently.
- Remove Lower Leaves: Remove any leaves that fall below the waterline to prevent bacterial growth.
- Change the Water: Change the water every 1-2 days and add flower food to nourish the blooms.
- Keep Cool: Keep the flowers in a cool location away from direct sunlight and drafts.
