You Don't Have To Be Harry Potter To Send A Magical Gift Of Flowers
By Wesley Berry
Sometimes life is so busy that it seems almost impossible to keep up on the special events in the lives of our loved ones and to ensure they always receive a beautiful and personal gift. But, if you enlist some help from your local florist, no matter how complicated life gets, you can be sure that you'll always have the perfect gift for every occasion.
Many florists offer a reminder service to let you know when a special occasion, like a birthday or anniversary is coming up. Talk to your florist and ask how you can enroll in this service. Often there is no charge involved and you're not obligated to purchase flowers for every occasion you're reminded of.
Get to know your florist so you feel comfortable talking about what's coming up and what you'd like to send. Your florist may track the flowers you send for each event as a part of the reminder service so that you don't send the same arrangement twice and to help you remember which gifts had the greatest impact. Tracking flower purchases will also help your florist to make appropriate suggestions based on the likes and dislikes of those who are receiving them as well as your purchasing preferences.
When you enroll in a reminder service, your florist may ask you to answer some questions regarding those people you place on your list to receive flowers. Questions might include:
* What colors does the person like most?
* What colors does he/she like the least?
* Are there any flowers or colors that should never be used?
* What are the person's hobbies or interests? (This can help your florist come up with unique gift ideas, such as an arrangement in an old football for a sports fan.)
* What type of personality does he/she have? (This helps determine style preferences. For example, someone who is very outdoorsy is likely to appreciate flowers with a more natural feel using seasonal grasses and twigs as accents.)
If your florist doesn't offer this service, you can be sure to never miss an event by taking the time to constantly update your calendar with new events. Check your calendar at the beginning of every month so you're aware of what's coming. You can order flowers weeks in advance and have them delivered on the desired date, so it's possible to take care of all your gifts for the month with just one phone call-no magic needed!
