The Secret to a Better Valentine’s Day

This Valentine’s Day, we’ve made it our mission to make it EASY for you! One of the main ways we can do that is to offer an opportunity to pre-order. Here are 3 reasons why pre-ordering for VDay is the way to go:

1. Pre-Ordering Guarantees the Best Prices
To get to the prices, let’s talk first about why we buy our blooms from wholesale florists. We do this for a couple of reasons. First, a wholesale florist provides a wider variety of color options and unique varieties of flowers that you would want to see in a bouquet. Move over carnation and standard rose—come on in, ranunculus and snapdragon, the water’s fine! Second, purchasing from a wholesaler allows us to offer you a better price than if we sourced from a more commercial option, like a big-box grocery store. (By the way, reason #1b Is that we guarantee to be better than any other grocery store bouquet out there!) In preparation for VDay, florists raise their prices as the day gets closer, so we can provide you with the best prices only if we place our wholesale order before a certain date. This allows the wholesaler ample time to fulfill our order. If we try to place an order even the week before VDay, that means a much higher price for us, and by default, for you. Sad. 

2. Pre-Ordering Guarantees the Best Gift Options
Local businesses begin thinking about Valentine’s months in advance, and it’s a sophisticated guessing game to know how much VDay-themed product to make. Because let’s face it—it’s tough to sell through those chocolate lips once Easter rolls around! To avoid that little inventory snafu, businesses only make a limited amount of VDay products, so we have to order early to get in on the ground floor. Pre-ordering your VDay chocolates guarantees that you will be able to gift those chocolate hearts and lips and cherubs to your heart’s (wink wink) content! If you wait too long, we’ll be sold out and you’ll have to settle for the picked-over grocery store candy aisle. A sad, sad place to visit on 2/13. 

3. Pre-Ordering Avoids the Last-Minute Scramble
I’ll never forget the time that I was posting in Facebook groups on 2/13, asking if complete strangers had any leftover VDay cards for my kids’ class parties at school! I waited too long to shop, so the shelves were empty—literally empty! We had to make our own that year, and it was not pretty! I’m guessing you have your own similar experience related to VDay: procrastination, panic, promises to do better next year. That’s why we’ve done our best to make it EASY for you! Pre-order now, and then you don’t have to think about it until we drop off (or you pick up) your order on 2/13 or 2/14! Just a few clicks and you are done! Future you will love you forever for thinking ahead! Yay!
