Valentines Will Always Be About Roses

Edit Article |

Posted: Aug 17, 2009 |Comments: 0

Roses and Valentines are two things that have long been associated with love, affection, passion, red, hearts, dinners, and of course money. Seriously speaking, have you (like me) ever wondered why every the “red letter day” of the year cue roses in? Sure, there are thousands of other more original, stunning, and beautiful gifts in the market but roses just seem to win over this battle year after year.

Roses are big talkers and have long symbolized love and passion. Valentine’s Day seem to put pressure on couples with undefined relationships. With a hazy status quo, how do you approach gift giving? Roses of different colors, count, and combinations should give you a good grasp on how to define subtly your relationship this sticky time of the year. Below is a list of that you can take in reference to this coming Valentines day:

By color:

Red Roses – defines love, passion, and respect
Pink Roses – communicates happiness, appreciation, admiration, friendship, and sympathy
Dark Pink Roses – say “thank you”
Light Pink Roses – displays grace, joy, gentility and admiration
White Roses – signify purity, innocence, humility, charm, and silence
Peach Roses – connotes modesty
Coral Roses – implies desire
Yellow Roses – defines caring, gladness, freedom, joy, and friendship
Orange Roses – shows the feeling of fascination, desire, and enthusiasm
Lavender Rose – symbolizes enchantment and love at first sight

By count:

One rose says “I still love you” while a dozen says “thank you very much.” Your partner will not only blush but be also floored upon receipt of fifty roses as this translates to unconditional love.

By combination:

A mix of red and white roses symbolizes unity. A generous yellow and orange rose mix sends passionate thoughts. I find saying “congratulations” rather weird on Valentines Day therefore please skip having a red and yellow rose mix arranged.

While Valentines Day has always been about roses, this should not restrict you from giving just these alone. Chocolates have always complemented roses nicely but recent trends show that jewelry such as rings, pendants, and brooches have been catching up. Fictional novels are always lovely to curl up to at night and so is an MP3 player that has all of your woman’s favorite love songs. Whatever your relationship is or whatever stage you are already on, just do make sure that you will not let this red-letter day pass without presenting roses.

5 Ideas for Great Valentines Day Gifts

While Valentines Day is supposed to be a time of celebration of the couple and of their love for one another, it can be filled with anxiety and worry. Usually this anxiety stems from worries about gift giving on the day. Gift giving is not meant to be anxiety producing, in fact it should be viewed as an opportunity to express your love. Now, you might be very busy so spending a lot of time working on a Valentines Day gift might be difficult for you and that’s ok, Anne is here to help. I’ll show you 5 easy steps to creating the perfect Valentines Day for your loved one.

1. Finding Gifts – Use the internet to find unique Valentines Day gifts. Using Google or one of the other major search engines search for ‘Valentines Day Gifts’ or ‘Unique Valentines Day Gifts’. At least this way you’ll get an idea of what’s out there and really quickly. You can cruise through these pages and see if there is anything that will work for your loved one.

2. Massage – Massage is an under recognized Valentines Day gift. Lots of places offer massage gift certificates for purchase online. Give the gift certificate to him or her on the day and then your sweetie can schedule whenever it is convenient for them. Consider getting your sweetheart some office massage that she can get while at work or perhaps some couples massage.

3. Gift Baskets – Gift baskets are usually reserved for office gifts or for far away gifts. If you are far away a Valentines Day Gift Basket might be exactly what you need. Even if you are close to your loved one a gift basket can be a fun and beautiful expression of love and it takes little work from you. Many places offer personalized Valentines Day gift baskets as well.

4. Fancy Dinner – As a Valentines Day gift the naughtily expensive dinner will never go out of style. If she eats meat take her to a place that serves good foie gras, pork belly or oysters. Look for a menu that is sensuous and outside the ordinary for your tastes and those of your sweet heart. Finding something different and unique to share is thrilling and will score you big points. Don’t be nervous about choosing wine, any good restaurant will help you select a good wine without being pretentious, don’t feign a high level of knowledge, profess your ignorance and make the sommelier work for you.

5. Flowers – Time tested, flowers are an excellent Valentines Day gift for men and women. You know your loved one best, pick a color they like and an exotic flower they haven’t seen before. Go with an orchid if you are unsure (just be prepared for lots of care, orchids are finicky). If plant care isn’t your thing go with the standard Valentines Day flower, the rose. Pick a unique color and come up with a reason you chose that color.

Special Tip: In fact, come up with a reason for every gift you give this Valentines Day. If you have a reason for a gift it will sound like you spent more time and effort finding the gift and your loved one will appreciate this effort (I won’t tell!).

Don’t let this Valentines Day get away from you like last year did, follow between 1 and 5 of the above steps plus the special tip and you will be on your way to a fantastic Valentines Day celebration. Be sure to follow up each gift with plenty of kisses and longing gazes and make this one to remember.
