Sharing Random Acts of Kindness

On February 17th, we will observe National Acts of Kindness Day. Recognized internationally on different dates, the day was the brainchild of a New Zealand native who had the simple idea that he could make the world better place, one nice gesture at a time. The concept caught on immediately and raced around the world like wildfire.  And although we have one special day set aside on the calendar, many people have embraced a lifestyle of making people smile. At Blossom Flower Shops, we are privileged to see and participate in acts of kindness all year long - and we look forward to helping you find creative ways to celebrate this wonderful day. No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted. - Aesop Read More about Sharing Random Acts of Kindness »

National Wedding Month is February

In February, romance is all around us, thanks largely to the observance of Valentine's Day. It seems weddings are on people's minds as well, prompting the National Association of Bridal Consultants to name the month as National Wedding Month. For those of us locked in frigid weather this month, that may seem odd - in fact, June, August, and September are the top three months for weddings. So why the designation for February? Turns out there are actually quite a few reasons. If you are planning a wedding in White Plains, Yonkers, or Westchester in 2017, you may be interested in these facts. And even if you have been married for a long time, National Wedding Month has some implications for you as well!  No matter what your stage along love's journey, Blossom Flower Shops are the area's premier source for flowers. Fun Wedding Fact: In America, we average 6,200 weddings per day! That adds up to approximately 2.4 million weddings per year. Read More about National Wedding Month is February »
