Some things just go together, like peas and carrots, bangers and mash and salt and pepper. With flowers, there are a number of combinations that work well, depending on the occasion. Here, we’ve listed some of the best items which complement roses and are the carrots to their peas, so to speak:
Chocolates
Flowers and chocolates are a match made in heaven. They both bring immense joy to the receiver, and have both been proven to lift someones mood almost instantly. Chocolates are a great little add on if you are giving flowers for a birthday or anniversary gift. Valentine’s Day is also the perfect time of year to indulge someone in their favourite blooms accompanied by some sweet treats.
Plush Toys
Plush toys work well when giving someone a bouquet of flowers. This is especially the case when you are congratulating someone on the birth of their baby. What’s great is mum gets to enjoy the beautiful flowers you sent and baby has a soft, cuddly toy to snuggle up to. Everyones happy!
Wine or Champagne
Of course, one of the most favourite gifts that is frequently partnered with flowers, is wine or champagne. These items both go hand in hand with celebrations of all types. Whether it be a congratulations gift for finishing a course or to mark a milestone birthday. If however the person you are buying for is more into spirits, a bottle of their favourite vodka or scotch would also do the trick, and work perfectly paired with a fragrant bunch of flowers.
Hampers
For something a little more decadent, a hamper full of delicious treats is perfect. Perhaps some pink bubbly and a selection of fine chocolates to go with an over-sized bouquet bursting with pink blooms. What girl doesn’t like the sound of that?! Or for a complete indulgence session, why not buy them a hamper with a bottle of Moet and a selection of chocolates included. Between the hamper and the bouquet of flowers, this gift is perfect for any occasion and is sure to make the receiver feel like a rock star! (Or at least, very important and special to you).
Candles
Of course, flowers make the perfect gifts for romantic holidays throughout the year. Whether it’s your anniversary, Valentine’s Day, or just because, a beautiful set of scented candles makes the ideal partner to a bouquet of flowers, keeping within the romantic theme. And what sets the scene more for night of romance than roses and scented candles lighting the room?
Sometimes, it’s nice to add a little extra to that bouquet of flowers. Whether you are thanking someone, or wishing them a happy birthday, it’s really all about doing something more, to give someone important to you, a little extra indulgence to enjoy.
If you buy your roses online, it’s never been easier to select the perfect bouquet, and choose from a selection of beautifully matched gifts to give your present that something extra. Whether it’s a birth or a graduation, sometimes it’s just nice to put something else with your gift, the receiver will thoroughly enjoy.
