Can you feel it? Love is in the air, signaling that National Romance Month has arrived. Perfectly situated between Valentine’s Day and the holidays, this celebration conveys all the spontaneity and fun of romance in the summertime and gives us the opportunity to surprise our loved one with tokens of affection all month long. At Ron and Alicia Robinson Florist, we know that love is not confined to any season because we deliver romance all year-round. If you have any questions as to the types of flowers you should send to represent your relationship, we are here to help!
For instance, red roses are the reigning champion of romantic florals. Representing true love and passion, this classic bloom leaves no room for misunderstanding of your feelings! But other colors of roses have romantic inferences as well – pink signifies a sweet, adoring love; white roses represent purity and are perfect for weddings, and orange roses convey passion and excitement about a relationship.
Carnations also signify love and fascination, with the color meanings very close to that of roses – white for pure love and red for deep, romantic love. If you have been married a long time, you may wish to give peonies, which symbolize marital bliss, and add some ivy to the arrangement – this beautiful greenery stands for endurance and faithfulness in marriage.
She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not: The popular game of whimsy and hope may have been the inspiration for the daisy to be named the representative of innocent, new love.
Simple Romantic Gestures to Keep Your Love Shining Bright
When it comes to showing a display of romance, you can’t go wrong with flowers. Everybody loves flowers. Not only are they fragrant, fresh, and beautiful, but they also have multiple health benefits, such as decreasing stress, improving your mood, and boosting your spirits. There are plenty more simple romantic gestures that go a long to pair with flowers or to just do on a regular basis, to keep the love bond strong between you and your special person, such as:
- Holding hands
- Leaving love notes
- Putting a fresh flower into a bedside vase daily
- Watching a movie together
- Checking in with each other during the day
- Giving a daily “good morning” kiss
- Saying “good night” every night
- Providing regular shoulder rubs
- Giving flowers “just because”
Use National Romance Month to check in on the romance health of your relationship and give it a booster shot if one is needed. Besides the daily actions of affection listed above, consider a romantic weekend getaway, a fancy dinner for two, a night out on the town, or a night in by a cozy fire with no interruptions.
