How to send celebratory flowers, as taught by a florist
Flowers to celebrate life's milestones such as store openings, business openings, inaugurations, and birthdays.
Add a touch of elegance to a bright occasion with beautiful flowers.
We will introduce some points to keep in mind depending on the type of celebration so that you can send flowers with peace of mind.
Opening and opening celebrations
Flowers to give as a gift to celebrate a store opening or company establishment.
We receive many orders for gorgeous and voluminous items.
Rather than bouquets that require a vase, arrangements and stand flowers that can be displayed immediately after arrival are popular.
The price varies depending on whether you are giving it as an individual or a corporation, but the average price is around 5,000 to 50,000 yen.
Large-flowered Phalaenopsis orchids are often used for corporate celebrations.
Customers sometimes ask, "I've been invited to the pre-opening, but when should I send flowers?" If you've been invited to the pre-opening, you should send flowers to coincide with the pre-opening. When doing so, you need to be careful about the type of flowers you send.
Don't let the flowers you sent at the pre-opening end up withered by the time of the grand opening.
The days from the pre-opening to the grand opening
・For 2-3 days: Cut flowers such as arrangements and stand flowers are OK.
・If it will be longer than that: Consider potted plants that last longer, such as Phalaenopsis orchids or ornamental plants.

When sending flowers to a store, make sure they arrive the day before or on the day of the store's opening. It 's hectic right after opening, and there may not be enough staff to receive them. The same applies to companies.
Even if you can't arrange flowers in time for the opening, send them early with a heartfelt message.
Celebrating an appointment or promotion
This is a celebration that is often given to people in business, such as when someone becomes chairman or president, or when they change positions or get promoted.
Again, the price differs depending on whether you are giving it as an individual or a corporation, but the average price is around 5,000 to 50,000 yen.
Large-flowered Phalaenopsis orchids are often used to celebrate the inauguration of a chairman or president.
When celebrating a promotion, many people choose a bouquet of flowers because Phalaenopsis orchids would be too ostentatious.
Choose bright and vibrant flowers!
If you receive news of a new job or promotion, arrange for an arrangement or Phalaenopsis orchid as soon as possible.
It is best to submit the letter within one week at the latest after the official appointment is issued.
birthday
Among birthdays, celebrations of longevity are especially grand!
Add flowers to your many gifts!
The market price is around 5,000 to 20,000 yen.
Generally, flowers that match the recipient's favorite color or atmosphere will be appreciated, but when it comes to celebrating longevity, there are image colors that correspond to the celebration.
Kanreki (61st birthday) - Red
Koki (70 years old) ...purple
Kiju (77 years old) ...purple
Sanju (80 years old) - Gold/Yellow
Beiju ( 88th birthday ) - Gold/Yellow
Sotsuju (90th birthday) - Purple and white
Hakuju (99 years old) ...White
Momoju (100 years old) - White/Pink
Although there is no image color, we also introduce celebrations for those over 100 years old!
Chaju (108 years old)
Emperor's life span: 111 years
Daikanreki (Great Sixtieth Birthday) 120 years old
Also, if you have a preference for the color or variety of flowers, the florist may not have them in stock if you order on the day.
Be sure to reserve flowers in advance for important celebrations!
Unless the flowers are difficult to obtain, we can prepare them for you if you make a reservation 10 days to 1 week in advance.
If you would like to have the gift delivered instead of having it delivered in person, we recommend having it delivered the morning of the birthday or the day before.
Have a wonderful day with flowers!
Housewarming gift
Flowers to celebrate a new life!
In addition to fresh flowers, some people also give ornamental plants or preserved flowers.
The market price is around 5,000 to 10,000 yen.
When it comes to fresh flowers, we recommend an arrangement that can be displayed immediately without having to search for a vase.
Avoid red flowers, which are reminiscent of fire.
If you are giving a large houseplant,
・Where should I place it?
-Does the plant suit the atmosphere of the room ?
If you check the recipient's preferences and where they will keep the gift in advance, you can give it without any problems.
If you are invited to their new home, they will surely be delighted if you visit them with flowers in hand.
If you would like to have the flowers delivered rather than delivered in person, avoid delivering them on the day of the move and instead deliver them the next day or later to ensure that the recipient is at home, so that the flowers will be in good condition.
wedding gifts
Flowers to celebrate the couple's new beginning.
It's a gift that brings such happy feelings!
Many people order gorgeous and cute bouquets and arrangements, which range in price from 5,000 to 15,000 yen.
Popular flower colors include soft pink and yellow and orange, which brighten the couple's future.
If you are giving an arrangement as a gift, try to avoid ceramic, which is a breakable material.
It's also lovely to choose flowers by paying attention to their meanings, such as gerberas (hope) and blue stars (happy love).
If you would like the flowers delivered, arrange for them to be delivered as soon as possible after receiving the news of the wedding.
Asking the recipient about a convenient date and time, including wedding or moving plans, will ensure they receive the gift.
You can also include a message card with your congratulations.
It's a wonderful place to celebrate.
To avoid any downsides, be sure to keep these points in mind when giving beautiful flowers!
