Our floral design team loves to work on weddings throughout Rome and Cedartown, Georgia because we are involved in helping make one of the most memorable day of people's lives, turning it into a beautiful representation of their dream.

Say Hello to Summer with These Summer Flower Trends
Summer is here, and we couldn't be more excited to be able to enjoy it in many of the ways we have always been used to doing. There is much to celebrate this summer and appreciate. Flowers can be a part of that through decorating the house for a festive feel, adding flowers to summer weddings and events, and sending flowers for all the special occasion days and personal celebrations for this season. Here are some of the summer 2021 flower trends that we see: Yellow Flowers Sunny yellow is the color of this summer as the forecast for a better season seems to be the conclusion across the country. More than just yellow flowers, yellow is also being incorporated in other ways, including yellow containers and yellow accents. Zen Feel and Far Eastern Floral Design Many floral designs this summer are focused on providing relaxation and calm after so many months of facing turmoil and uncertainty. Think tropical leaves and greenery combined with orchids and minimalist flower designs that allow you to focus on the individual beauty found in nature rather than overwhelming you with a large bunch of flowers. Many of these floral designs also reflect a Far Eastern design in terms of the minimalism and thoughtfully placed natural elements, including unique containers that allow flowers and greenery to be displayed this way.

June is National Rose Month
Roses are one of the most beloved flowers around the world. They are often available throughout the year due, in large part, to temperate climates that allow for rose farms to bloom. However, they are often considered in peak season here in the United States during the late spring and summer months, with the most available during June. Also, June is a popular month for many types of celebrations, such as weddings, graduation, and birthdays just to name a few. It makes sense, then, that June would be designated as National Rose Month. There is also June 12th, which is known as Red Rose Day, a day to celebrate the red rose and its meaning of romance and deep love. Perhaps that is a good time to propose or celebrate an anniversary. Whatever you decide to do, consider our Rome, Georgia and Cedartown flower shops and floral and gift website for the freshest, most stunning roses available. We partner with some of the best ross farmers in the world to bring you large, brilliantly hued roses in a wide array of colors. Our rose collection features so many ways you can use roses to express your feelings.

Our Designer’s Choice Bouquets Make the Perfect Gift!
While we offer many stunning floral designs as part of our various collections, including best sellers, fresh flowers, birthday, anniversary, just because, and holiday collections, there may be times where you want a floral design that is more personalized to you, your recipient, or your event. We do have a completely custom floral design service that caters to this desire to an exclusive floral display as well as our signature designs that also standout from the rest of our floral designs. Another option at both our Cedartown flower shop and our Rome, GA flower shop is what we like to call our Designer's Choice floral design service. This personalized experience is designed around different styles and themes, including pastel, bright and bold, rustic, and more. Once you select the style for your Designer's Choice bouquet, then you can share some of the things that you or your recipient likes, including the size, favorite colors, and favorite flowers. From there, our floral designers put their creativity to work. Unlike the completely custom floral experience where you participate in the process, including coming in for an appointment, a Designer's Choice arrangement doesn't have to involve you as much in the process. This is ideal for the busy person who would like to personalize their flowers. As you can see from our other floral designs, including our luxury [...]
