And which Bouquet will make Her Heart Sway?
The ancient Egyptians are considered to be the first to use flowers as
symbols of love. What a trend they set… thousands of years later, flowers
are still at the top of the charts for gifts of love. Love is a hugely
broad category, and fortunately, so are flower varieties. Love can be
expressed as friendship, as intense passion, as filial, and any
relationship in which respect and care are the foundation. Thus, when
choosing flowers to send to whomever your feelings bend to, and in
whatever degree of love, there are flowers that are appropriate. Beyond
your feelings for the lady or man, consider her or his feelings – the type
of person receiving the flowers is more important than the meaning of
flowers, as interpretations differ, and while you may be passionately in
love with a girl who loves nature, she may prefer simple ivy to red roses.
In addition to the personality, flowers can wonderfully complement a
lifestyle. Take note of the type of surroundings, colours and style of
those you love, and they will be impressed by your sensitivity to what
they love. When thought goes into a bouquet, the gift takes on a new
meaning, and will be remembered long after the blossoms end blooming.
First on the list in choosing your bouquet is to know what you want to say
in giving it. If you are giving the bouquet to one who is cheerful and
charming, and your relationship is innocent, chrysanthemums or daisies
convey this message. If you are falling in love, but it is still quite
playful and the tone is not too serious yet, hyacinth is an option. These
bright flowers themselves are playful, with a strong, intoxicating smell.
This sums up the first stages of love for many couples! If you intend to
give flowers to one who is modest, violets won’t hurt anyone’s modesty. If
anything, a tad of modesty may be lost in receiving such a gift of
understated elegance. When we are giving flowers for romantic purposes, do
not feel limited to red or pink roses. In addition to the gorgeous rose,
other romantic contenders include tulips, lilacs, wildflowers, and
orchids. If finally, after all the years of motherly love, you wake up one
day wanting to acknowledge mum for all that she’s done, pink carnations
are an especially interesting choice, as they represent a mother’s undying
love. According to legend, carnations stemmed from the tears of Mary as
she watched Jesus carry the cross. Thus, in giving carnations to mother,
you are recognizing the years of undying love that she has given to you!
While flowers traditionally have their own language and meaning, do not
feel limited to flower language when choosing a bouquet. Often far more
pertinent to your life is the personality of the person receiving the
bouquet. Starting with the eternally beloved drama queens (and kings) in
our lives, the flowers they receive should represent their fiery
personalities. Best for the dramatic one is a bouquet of bold colours in a
sharp, non-traditional vase. Perhaps a metallic square vase is in line
here. While pleasing an artist aesthetically may seem a mission
impossible, lean towards exotic flowers. Their rarity will please the
artistic eye, and if you ask the florist to recommend some flowers of
uncommon shapes, this will be even better eye candy for the artist. The
free-spirited and natural will love that which reminds them of being
outdoors: green and flowering plants, with some spicy smells added to take
the imagination away from contemporary life. A classic beauty will like a
traditional arrangement of lush and various flowers, while the romantic
will enjoy softness in both colours and fragrance, with ribbons decorating
the bouquet.
Beyond personality, if you are looking for a more creative way to please,
choose the bouquet based on other factors, such as colour or home
interior. Knowing her favourite colour, and giving her a bouquet with that
colour as the focus will make any flower that much more appreciated. If
you are going to an event, be it a ball or an anniversary dinner, figure
out the colour of her dress beforehand, and order a bouquet that will
match or complement the dress. Even if it won’t go out with the two of
you, it will look great in any pre-photos. Did grandma buy new curtains
that she’s extremely proud of? How touched she will be when you give her a
bouquet that complements her beautiful new curtains (no matter what your
opinion of them!). The general style of an apartment or house can be
considered. Don’t feel you have to buy a huge gushing bouquet if the
apartment where the flowers are heading is minimalist and contemporary.
Florists are artists, and they can make a bouquet as different as you ask
for.
Of course, with all the meaning that flowers can take on, most important,
and most pleasing to the recipient, will be the flowers that have personal
meaning. If, on your first date strolling through St. James’ Park, you
pinched a tulip to impress your girl, this may be the most romantic flower
to you as your relationship progresses. Guidelines are always guidelines,
but life experience should be what marks and makes our own guidelines. Do
remember that whatever the flower, you can always add to its importance by
choosing a colour she loves. Still, knowing the traditional meanings of
flowers helps you decide what message you want to convey in giving
flowers. Knowing his or her personality and lifestyle will add to making a
bouquet unique to that person. Thus, when choosing flowers, there is no
right or wrong, but the more thought you put into the bouquet; the longer
it will be cherished and remembered.
