Valentine’s Day 2017

The stage is set, sweet perfumed rose petals reign in the senses. The clinking of champagne glasses complimented by breathless smiles and laughter full of life fills the air.

4am and the girls are getting into swing of things. New orders have come in over night and the fabulously creative team at Williams are processing orders.

530am and the couriers are loading deliveries in their vans to surprise the lucky ladies and gents receiving blooms off the first run. 

Dawn brings with it the first fresh breath of the day and a few bleary eyed visitors wander by the store, our most dedicated and loyal customers pop in especially early each year just for that something a little extra special. 

Coffee followed by a bite to eat and a little good morning banter with the locals that visit us each year religiously.

The absolute best part of Valentine’s Day to me is seeing the best in people come to the forefront.

It’s not about the money we spend or the lavish gifts we give;

The handwritten notes scribed and attached to a simple bunch of flowers, the gorgeous gentlemen that remember the flowers their wives had in their bouquets on their wedding days and the secret admirers who don’t know what to say is what it’s all about.

The very thought of Valentine’s Day is to surprise that unbeknown person in your life that you admire.

To think of and be thought of in the most unexpected way; Perhaps with a touch of familiarity that settles the soul in that place it calls home; that little ol’ place called love – A place where we all belong.

Belonging to someone or belonging to none, a flower is a touching token of admiration, respect and love.

Valentine’s Day is a day to cherish our loved ones and to take a simple date in the year to take time to remember those we truely admire.

It’s not all about romantic love either; and your in luck if you visit your local florist on Valentine’s Day… There are tonnes of blooms that symbolise friendship and admiration!

Just as music enchants the souls to dance and to take in the joy of beauty. A flower does just the same, whether for their colours, their scent, their shape or structure when it comes to fresh flowers there are endless options to choose from. On Valentine’s Day, Williams aims to create perfect moments which bloom into perfect memories to cherish for eternity.

Valentine’s Day is one of the lovers.

For that special one you secretly admire the one that takes our breath away when in their presence. Send love, this Valentine’s Day, send a bunch of flowers to express what words can’t say. Say it with Flowers with Williams Florist.
