It’s nearly May, and we’re looking ahead to summer, which brings with it the end of the school year. A host of parties, ceremonies and—most important of all—proms will be happening in the area, with our local seniors and their friends and family celebrating the end of the high school journey and the start of a new one. Here at Blossom Flower Shops, we believe it’s never too early to begin thinking about the flowers you’ll need to properly celebrate or adorn your favorite graduates. This is a high-flower time, and we’re here for it.

Modern prom-goers are taking fresh, innovative approaches to their overall look, and that includes the floral embellishments they wear. It’s customary to wear a corsage, sure, but these days, our female seniors are much more likely to wear flowers in their hair or to pose with a nosegay. Our Floral Crown is a good example of the form; this slight, simple garland of baby’s breath is a graceful, lighthearted accompaniment to a boho-style gown. You can up the formal factor by tucking in spray roses.

We haven’t forgotten the men, either. Our Boutonniere Mini Carnation is a minimal, contemporary approach to the boutonniere game, with two elegant small white carnations accented by green berries and bear grass. The look is natural, simple and timeless.

Prom is an excellent time to have fun with wearable florals. There are a variety of options and looks available these days, and lots of stylish seniors around to show them off.
