The Ultimate Guide To Choosing and Sending Valentine’s Flowers

Nothing says true love like flowers on Valentine’s Day, right? Wrong! In reality, nothing says true love like the right flowers on Valentine’s Day.

Picking Valentine’s Flowers for your beloved can be a minefield. Too little effort and the entire gesture is guaranteed to backfire (think garage forecourt bouquets on your way from home from work). Too much effort and your Valentine may feel guilty if they haven’t made a similar grand gesture. To make sure you get it right first time, Ray’s Florist have compiled the ultimate man’s guide to buying Valentine’s Flowers. Read on to brush up on your floral expertise and you’ll be choosing like a pro in no time… 1. Think About Your Relationship Have you been dating for years or is the subject of your desire a secret crush? The relationship you have with your recipient should determine the type of floral display you choose. If yours is a long standing relationship, something grand or markedly different to your day to day lives together really makes a statement. So, if you’re a couple not prone to obvious public display’s of affection, why not change the pace and beguile your beloved with an unexpectedly extravagant token of love? The glamorous Amadora bouquet from the Ray’s Florist Valentine’s Flowers selection is suitably opulent, with a generous bloom of gorgeous Aqua packed roses sprinkled with Diamante. If you’re plucking up the courage to unveil yourself to a secret crush, a simple yet elegant arrangement like the Amata floral bouquet makes a beautiful gift. With romantic red and pink carnations circling a show stopping pink rose, you can be sure your Valentine will be keen to unmask the identity of her secret admirer. 2. Be public with your affection Valentine’s Day falls on a Monday this year which gives you the perfect opportunity to lift her day from Monday blues to an occasion to remember. When you order your Valentine’s Day flowers, be sure to give your sweetheart’s office address as the delivery destination. This means that she will be able to enjoy her flowers all day long. 3. Consider adding a gift However simple or extravagant the Valentine’s Day flowers you choose, you can always add an extra token of affection in the form of balloon, teddy bear or chocolates. These traditional gifts pair perfectly with classic red roses, showing that romance really isn’t dead. 4. Put thought into the message on the card Very often the message that accompanies the flowers is an afterthought by the sender but this is a mistake, particularly when sending something as personal and evocative as a Valentine’s Day bouquet. Before ordering your flowers, think carefully about the message you’d like to accompany them and then you won’t be put on the spot and left with an uninspired missive when the florist asks or the online shopping basket is full. The card is a keepsake so don’t rush the sentiment by not planning ahead. The florists at Ray’s Florist can help you to choose the perfect arrangement if you’re still not sure, with delivers guaranteed to stay fresh for at least seven days.
