Giving Flowers to parents?

We are doing whats called a rose ceremony.

Here is the wording our officiant will be using. We are doing it right after our vows.

Rose

This wedding celebration is a joining of two unique families who stood separate until today. Today we unite these families by the marriage of Stacy and Russ, they would each like to honor their individual families that have now come together, with the giving of a rose to their mothers. They would also like to acknowledge the love and sacrifice that each mother has made to make her children who they are today - - a man and woman who are ready to be in a committed, loving marriage of their own.

Thank you I might borrow that

I've seen it like this: Dad walks bride down the aisle. They stop at the bride's mom and bride plucks a flower from her bouquet and gives it to her. Wedding continues, vow, etc. You may kiss the bride, bride and groom turn around ready to walk down the aise. Bride plucks flower from her bouquet and gives to groom's mom and they walk away.

It was really sweet.

Sorry double post.

Hi, did this myself, but it was enons ago and not sure if it would fly today, anyways hubby and I did the Unity candle, 2 long stemmed roses were preplaced on the alter, where no one would see and then after lighting our combined candle, I gave his mom a rose and he gave one to mine. Just kinda nice that we did it after we lit the unity candle, esp since both Mothers lit the single candles, prior to my entrance.

Today's Brides like to give small bouquets instead, and those could be preplaced as well.

Best of luck!

I do this at almost very ceremony. I call the moms up to join us (it's always a surprise) and I talk about how the Victorians used flowers to express sentiments to precious to put into words. One of those sentiments it gratitude...it goes on a little bit more, but the gist of it is to thank your moms for making you the people that you are. Everyone kisses and hugs....moms cry......it's great!

I don't usually have music in the background because I"m talking.....

I love this....I'm tearing up a little reading it as well

One of my friend is also planning to do something like this on her wedding......she and her H2B will give flowers to their parents after their wedding ceremony........i like this idea very much.....this way you can show your love and respect towards them and also its a kind of feeling of bonding with each other......

You can try having a bouquet that divides into three and then joined into one bouquet. Then, when it's time for you to give the flowers, you can just divvy up the bouquet you have.

WHAT COLOR ROSE IS APPROPRIATE?

Gifting flowers to my parents on their wedding day was a truly special experience, one that I will always cherish. As they celebrated another year of love and commitment, I wanted to find a way to honor their journey and express my gratitude for the wonderful example they have set. After much thought, I decided that flowers would be the perfect gift—a timeless symbol of love and appreciation.

I knew I wanted to choose something extraordinary, so I turned to Flora2000. This online flower delivery service had come highly recommended by friends for its wide selection of beautiful arrangements and reliable service. I browsed their website, impressed by the variety of options available, from classic roses to exotic orchids. The user-friendly interface made it easy to filter through choices based on preferences, occasions, and even flower types.

As I explored the different arrangements, I recalled the stories my parents had shared about their wedding day. They had a simple yet elegant ceremony, filled with love and surrounded by close family and friends. I wanted to choose flowers that would evoke the same feelings of joy and nostalgia. I finally settled on a stunning bouquet of white lilies and roses, symbolizing purity and enduring love.

The process of ordering through Flora2000 was seamless. I could customize the bouquet with a heartfelt message and choose the delivery date to ensure it arrived on the exact day of their anniversary. What stood out to me was the care and attention to detail that Flora2000 promised in handling each order. I felt confident that my parents would receive a beautifully arranged bouquet that would convey my sentiments perfectly.

On the morning of their anniversary, I received a notification that the flowers were out for delivery. I eagerly awaited their call, hoping that the bouquet would bring a smile to their faces. When my phone finally rang, it was my mother on the other end, her voice brimming with emotion. She described how stunning the flowers were, how the fragrance filled their home with a delightful aroma, and how the arrangement reminded her of the flowers she had on her wedding day.

My father also expressed his gratitude, and it was clear that the gesture had touched them deeply. Hearing their happiness made me realize how a simple act of gifting flowers could create such a profound impact. It wasn’t just about the physical beauty of the flowers; it was about the memories they evoked and the love they symbolized.

The experience of using Flora2000 to gift flowers to my parents was exceptional. The convenience of online ordering, the variety of exquisite arrangements, and the reliable delivery made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. But more than that, it allowed me to express my love and appreciation in a way that resonated deeply with my parents.

This experience has reinforced my belief in the power of thoughtful gestures. Whether it's celebrating an anniversary, a birthday, or just because, giving flowers can convey emotions that words sometimes fail to capture. And with services like Flora2000, making these moments special is easier than ever. My parents' anniversary was made all the more memorable, and I am grateful for the joy it brought to them—and to me.

I think giving flowers to your parents and grandparents after you say your vows is such a beautiful and heartfelt idea! I’ve seen it done at a few weddings, and it’s always so emotional. It’s a nice way to show gratitude and appreciation for everything they’ve done for you.

As for songs, something soft and emotional would fit well. I’ve heard “A Thousand Years” by Christina Perri and “Forever Young” by Rod Stewart being played during moments like these. But really, any song that’s meaningful to you and your family works!

I actually got my flowers from IGP for a special event, and I was super happy with them. The flowers were fresh, and they arrived on time—plus, I loved how easy it was to personalize them. The whole experience just added a special touch to the day. Definitely recommend checking out their selection!
