Choosing the Right Bouquet, Arrangement or Gift  
Choosing the right bouquet may seem like a daunting task, but by asking a few simple questions you can easily find the perfect solution!


Who are the flowers for? This question helps you to clarify the relationship you have with the recipient. Are the flowers for your Mother, Sister, Friend, Wife, First Date, Boss, Neighbour, Hairdresser, Colleague or Business Associate? Ask yourself how well you know the person and whether you want the message you send to be intimate, friendly or professional.

What type of person are they and what colours do they like? Think about the person receiving the flowers. Do they dress in bright colours and live in a world full of colour?
  • A bright bouquet of sunflowers and orange gerberas or a tropical bouquet may be the best option.
Do they dress in muted tones and live in a world of whites, pastels and shades of understated colour.
  • A stylish white and green bouquet or a country garden style bouquet full of soft colours might be the best choice. Lilies, roses and lissianthus are always beautiful together.
What sort of relationship do you have with the recipient? Is it romantic, perhaps you are a member of their family or are you associated to them via a business relationship. Do you want the flowers to convey a personal or professional message.
  • The better you know someone the more personal you can make the gift. Choose the flowers that you know they love and buy for themselves.
  • Use the colours they dress in and use to decorate their personal spaces.
  • For sympathy bouquets we always suggest beginning with neutral colours of white and green but feel free to add a third colour such as yellow, pink or blue.
What is the occasion? Is it a birthday, a thank you, an anniversary or a sympathy gesture? Perhaps you want to say "I love you" or "thanks for your help!" Use the navigation bar on the Buy Flowers page to help you find the perfect bouquet for every occasion.

The better you know the person the more you can tailor the flowers to specific tastes. Bright and modern, classic and pretty, country garden, pastel and soft or tropical and unusual. Simply think about the person and try to associate one of these styles with their personality.

When sending flowers to someone you do not know particularly well, we always advise people to choose neutral colours that do not make too much of a statement and will fit beautifully into any home or office.

If you are still having trouble choosing the style that best suits the recipient, then why not send the flowers that you would love to receive! This gift is from you so why not send it with your personal touch.

If you are interested in the meaning of flowers we have compiled a selection of flowers, their meaning and suggested occasions that they may be used for.

Take your time, we have created many different bouquets and arrangements that contain a wonderful variety of flowers. Send the flowers that carry the appropriate message, suit the occasion and reflect the person receiving them.

If you would like to speak with one of our florists to help you make the right decision, please call us on 0800 783 4476. We are always here to help and we have plenty of experience in helping customers choose the perfect gift.
