Delivering Romance & Beautiful Blooms That Speak Their Love Language
Flowers have a way of turning any moment into something you can truly feel. From birthdays and anniversaries to Valentine’s Day, a thoughtful bouquet makes the whole occasion something extraordinary. Maybe it’s classic and romantic red roses, a mix of stems that bring you right back to your wedding day, or an arrangement featuring their favorite blooms. Choosing the flowers is the fun part, but the real magic is in how you send them. At VanderSalm’s Flowershop, the premier florist in Kalamazoo, we’re pulling inspiration from Gary Chapman’s love languages, the seven modern romance styles, and even a few favorite hobbies to help you plan a delivery that feels personal and unforgettable.
A Clean House, Homemade Dinner, & Flowers on the Table
Some people want diamonds and handwritten sonnets, while others, with a practical romance style or acts of service love language, would swoon over a completed to-do list. If this sounds like your partner, coming home to a clean house, the smell of dinner, and flowers on the table might be their idea of perfection. It allows them to relax and unwind, soak in the beauty of fresh stems, and spend a lovely, cozy, and romantic evening without having to check anything else off their to-do list.
Pair Sweet Stems with a Sweet Love Note
If your partner lights up when you compliment them, congratulations, you are loving a words-of-affirmation or appreciation-style romantic. They want to hear it, not guess it. So, write a note that highlights their strengths, kindness, humor, and even the way they show up on challenging days. Then, back up those words with a beautiful, symbolic flower arrangement. Whether roses, hydrangeas, lilies, or all three, romantic flowers set the tone for your heartfelt note. If you’re not sure where to begin, take a look at our card messaging ideas for inspo.
Plan a Grand Delivery to Their Workplace
When your partner has been extra stressed and you wish you could sit beside them at their desk and hype them up all day, a workplace flower delivery is the next best thing. For someone with an emotional love style or a love language of receiving gifts, a bouquet arriving out of nowhere feels like emotional support in full bloom. It breaks up their day, helps them feel seen, and lets them know you’re always there supporting, rooting, and loving them.
Celebrate Shared Fitness Activities with Thoughtful Blooms
Partners who have a shared experiences romance style, or live for quality time, would love nothing more than for you to say yes to that bike ride, pickleball game, or hike! Spending time with your partner is one thing, but taking part in an activity that lights them up or ignites a passion shows your desire to fully understand and support them. Living life hand-in-hand, doing things side-by-side, is always more romantic when flowers are involved. So, place them next to their pickleball paddles, inside their bike basket, or on the table during a post-activity lunch to keep those endorphins high.
Subscribe to a Monthly Delivery
There’s no reason to limit romantic flowers to special occasions. If they light up every time you walk in with a bouquet, it might be time to put that joy on repeat! A monthly flower subscription means they get that sweet, heartwarming feeling over and over again. For someone who feels most loved through receiving gifts, this is the perfect surprise. Each delivery is a little reminder that your love story is very much still in bloom, even if Valentine’s Day is over.
Speaking their love language or leaning into their romance style is how you turn any flower delivery into a moment that makes them feel seen, heard, understood, and genuinely loved. And no romantic gesture is complete without fresh stems from your local florist at VanderSalm’s Flowershop.
