The Best Flowers to Give for Anniversaries

Are you the type of couple that marks every milestone in your relationship? Or have you  forgotten a few anniversary gifts here and there? Every relationship is unique, and many partners rely on the power of flowers when it comes to expressing love on their anniversaries. Kremp Florist can help you determine which flowers are best to give on your special day, whether you’ve been together for a few months or married for decades.

History of Anniversary Presents

It is common today to exchange anniversary presents, but that wasn’t always the case. In the 1930s, most couples recognized the 1st, 10th, 20th, 25th, 50th, and 70th wedding anniversaries. Gifts would not typically be given for all the passing years in between these big milestones. With each benchmark reached the gifts would become more valuable because the society of the day wanted to congratulate and reward the stability in the relationship. That’s how we came to have a symbol associated with each anniversary, starting with paper for the first anniversary and leading all the way up to diamond for the 75th. Today, some people still choose anniversary gifts based on these symbols, and other gifts like flowers and chocolates also remain popular. Many couples do something special to mark each anniversary and especially celebrate the milestone years.

How to Choose Anniversary Flowers

Flowers are a traditional anniversary gift that is still popular today. Kremp Florist’s beautiful bouquets for anniversaries symbolize the uniqueness, beauty, and liveliness of a happy relationship. Not sure which pretty petals to choose? There are several paths to finding yourself a stunning arrangement that will please your partner, such as:

• Traditional Red Roses

  An arrangement of beautiful red roses accented with baby’s breath and trailing greenery instantly says, “I love you.” Kremp Florist designs one dozen, two dozen, or more roses in a vase or hand tied bouquet to give to your love on your anniversary. For a personalized take on this traditional design, ask about the many colorful shades now available like lavender, yellow, pink, or white.
  
  

• Favorite Flowers

  Find out your significant other’s favorite flower, and you’ll be on your way to giving a thoughtful and personal gift. Common favorite flowers include sunflowers, lilies, peonies, tulips, calla lilies, orchids, and roses. Order a monofloral bouquet of only her favorites, or mix it up with flowers that compliment his favorite stems. Whatever his or her preferred bloom may be, purchasing an arrangement that features those flowers will show how well you know your partner and is sure to make them smile.

• Do It Yourself

  If you have a bit of creativity, you may want to try creating a flower arrangement yourself with stems that you can purchase at Kremp Florist. Take a walk through the cooler and choose the day’s freshest flowers for your special anniversary. Gather the flowers into your own bouquet or arrange them in a vase and you will surely impress your other half with your thoughtfulness and creativity. It’s not about design perfection, but about the effort and personalization put into the gift.

• Love in Bloom

  If you know your spouse has a green thumb, then consider giving a blooming plant to celebrate your anniversary. The living gift is a reminder of your love that will last for a long time to come with the proper care. Some of Kremp Florist’s most popular blooming plants include kolanchoe, peace lilies, cyclamen, african violets, and calla lilies. Blooming plants offer the beauty of fresh flowers and the opportunity to see your specimen bloom again and again. Plants are decorations that beautify your home and some attribute fresher air to their houseplants. A few plants plus a long loving relationship equals a happy anniversary!
