A hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone in being alone
A hundred billion castaways looking for a home

There's no coincidence that a message in a bottle is a romantic metaphor immortalized by Van Halen and The Police.

What Should A Valentine’s Day Card Reveal?

Posted by Suzie Canale on Fri, Jan 29, 2016

Valentine’s Day is February 14th, the most popular day of the year to send flowers to loved ones.  It’s also the time when many people choose to reveal their feelings for a special someone, which makes sense since it is the holiday dedicated for “L-O-V-E”.  This can add a lot of pressure to those poor guys and gals who aren’t quite sure how to put their sentiments into words since there has to be a card attached to the arrangements sent by florists.  What is the right thing to write when you’re in this sticky situation?

Well, it depends largely on what the circumstances are.  After all, you wouldn’t want to send a card that wasn’t appropriate because saying too little or saying too much can blow your chances in a heartbeat.  You have to be clever and creative when finding the correct words for Valentine’s Day, focusing on tailoring the message for that specific person.  If you’re stumped for ideas and are at a loss for words, here are a few funny, romantic, sweet and even poetic phrases to woo your love interest this Valentine’s Day!

 

Funny

  1. Meh…You’ll Do…
  2. I Love You More Than Pizza….
  3. I Way OveLay Ouyay!

Valentine’s Day Messages to Send With Flowers

Posted by Suzie Canale on Thu, Feb 05, 2015

You’ve bought the candy, made the reservation at her favorite restaurant and now its time to order flowers.  You’ve decided to go with a pretty mix of vibrant colors instead of the traditional red roses and you’re feeling pretty good about the Valentine’s Day plans you’ve made so far.  There’s just one small problem…what do you say on the card to make her really understand your deep felt sentiments?  It has to be personal, original, meant for her eyes-only but what words do you choose to say? 

 valentines flowers in boston

Relax, there’s a simple model for successfully conquering this common anxiety ridden task.  The first thing that needs to be done is to truly understand what feelings you want to convey.  Is it love or lust?  Is the relationship casual or serious?  How long have you been together?  Is this a long-standing partnership or brand new?  What about her personality?  Is she romantic, creative, sensitive or funny?  See, all of these aspects must be weighed before taking out that pen to scribe your feelings.  Unfortunately, a message ill written or taken the wrong way may be destructive to your relationship with your Valentine so your card has to be clear.  Once you’ve decided which thematic path you wish to travel on, commit and select the perfect message that conveys those feelings.  These are a few of my favorites that have put a smile on my face.

For the Valentine whose put in her time over the years:

Cupid’s aim is still pretty good!

 

For the 1-2 year relationship:

With you, it’s Valentine’s Day 365 days of the year.

 

For the 70’s peppy music lover:

How sweet it is, to be loved by you!

 

For the 80’s sentimental music lover:

You take my breadth away….

 

For the unsuspecting Valentine:

Be Mine

 

For the math loving Valentine:

You + Me = Forever     or       You + Me + Perfect

 

For the exotic romantic language loving Valentine:

Je t’aime

 

For the Poetry lover:

Even in a fairy tale where every dream comes true, I could never hope to find a husband/wife as sweet as you.

 

For the “Working Things Out” Valentine:

The best proof of love is trust
