It’s time to start planning for International Women’s Day, which is coming up quickly on March 8th! This is your chance to really show the ladies in your life – whether it’s Mom, your bestie, or your favorite coworker – just how much they mean to you. Mimosa flowers are the queen blooms thanks to their symbolism of women’s strength, sensibility, and grace – and, of course, being named IWD’s official flower in 1946. If you ask us, there are tons of spring blooms like peonies, tulips, and gerbera daisies that are just as iconic and perfect for celebrating IWD. You can totally personalize your bouquet, mixing and matching colors and flower meanings, or stick with the traditional hues of IWD: purple for loyalty, green for hope, and white for purity. Once you’ve found the ideal bouquet at Bloomwoods Flowers, the top florist in Columbus, who will you decide to send it to?
Female Family Members
Hats off to the women we’re lucky to call family – our original support system that’s still just as strong as ever. From moms and aunts to sisters and cousins, and of course, our inspiring grandmothers, they’ve helped us navigate life’s challenges with wisdom and warmth you can feel from miles away. These are the ladies who’ve made multitasking look like a breeze and juggled life’s curveballs with nothing but a hair flip and flawless finesse. They’re the OG influencers, teaching us the art of slaying life’s dragons with one hand tied behind their backs. Honestly, they’ve been keeping our entire universe together! So, on IWD, it’s time to level up our game and send those heart reactions and flower emojis IRL.
Your Biggest Supporters
In honor of inclusivity and (let’s face it) because you simply couldn’t imagine your life without them, we have to honor your biggest fans. The ones who rally with you, turn your “ugh” moments into “aha” moments, stay up brainstorming with you, double down on your dreams, and celebrate even your smallest of victories – making them feel like your greatest successes – they’re the ones who deserve a whole lot of love on IWD. Without them, who else would not only root for you but get in the ring with you, throwing pouches in the air for everything you both believe in? They’re allies through and through who are more than worthy of some flowers to celebrate IWD.
Mentors and Teachers
We all remember that one teacher with the best candy stash or who’d trade a few minutes of class time for a quick game. But let’s not forget the professor who steered you towards the pivotal college course, setting the stage for your future successes. Those mentors who sparked your love for the scientific method, poetry, geometry, or art have indeed left a lasting impact. I mean, just look at you now! Imagine their delight in receiving a truly heartwarming bouquet from their former student (we mean you) thanking them for inspiring them to break barriers and reach new heights.
Inspiring Co-Workers
In every workplace, there are those extraordinary co-workers who light up our professional journey. They’re the ones who offer a helping hand on tough days, the go-to source for fashion advice before that big presentation, and the steadfast allies who empower us to negotiate for what we deserve. They’re not just colleagues; they’re friends and mentors, always there to motivate and inspire us to reach for the stars and keep breaking those glass ceilings. On IWD, take a moment to honor these remarkable individuals with a bouquet that matches their vibrancy and spirit. It’s a small gesture with a big impact, a token of appreciation for the support, encouragement, and camaraderie that brighten our daily work lives.
Yourself
If you’re a woman on IWD, nobody deserves fresh flowers more than you. It’s because of your own strength, determination, wisdom, and fire burning within that you’ve made it to where you are today. Of course, you had help and guidance along the way, but your success was never handed to you! So, enjoy basking in the glory of all your wins and send yourself some flowers to remind yourself how amazing, worthy, and brilliant you are. It’s a new IWD tradition that we will always stand behind.
Let your favorite women and allies know who they are this IWD by sending them some fresh springtime stems! Bloomwoods Flowers is ready to make their day as special as they are.
