SHOP VALENTINE'S DAY FLOWERS NOW

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and Gillespie Florists is here to help you make this day truly unforgettable. However, if there’s one piece of advice we can give, it’s this: shop early for your Valentine's Day flowers and gifts. Here’s why planning ahead is the secret to a stress-free, love-filled celebration.

Why Shopping Early for Valentine's Day is the Key to a Stress-Free Celebration

1. Ensure You Get Your First Choice 

Valentine's Day is one of the busiest times of the year for florists. Popular flowers and arrangements can sell out quickly. By shopping early, you’ll get the best selection of fresh, stunning flowers. Whether you're planning to surprise your sweetheart with a classic bouquet of long-stemmed roses or a custom arrangement of their favorite flowers, shopping early ensures you get exactly what you want.

2. Lock in Your Preferred Delivery Time

Timing is everything on Valentine’s Day! Our delivery schedule fills up fast, so placing your order early means you can secure the time or day that works best for you. Whether you want flowers delivered to the workplace for a mid-day surprise or to the home for an intimate evening celebration, planning ahead ensures your flowers arrive on time and in perfect condition.

3. Avoid the Last-Minute Rush

We’ve all been there: waiting until the last minute to find the perfect gift, only to end up feeling stressed and overwhelmed. By shopping early, you can skip the Valentine’s Day chaos and enjoy the process of selecting a meaningful gift. Plus, it gives you peace of mind knowing everything is taken care of.

4. Surprise Them with Something Truly Special

Shopping early allows you to explore unique options and personalize your gift. At Gillespie Florists, we offer custom floral arrangements, gift bundles, and add-ons like chocolates, candles, balloons, and stuffed animals. 

5. Show Them How Much You Care

Planning ahead shows thoughtfulness and care—two things that mean the world on Valentine’s Day. By ordering your flowers early, you’re demonstrating that this special day is a priority for you and that you’ve put time and effort into making it memorable.

The Socks of Champions 🧦 Let's start from the ground up – literally! Pull out the most outrageously colorful and fuzzy socks you can find. The brighter, the better! Not only will your tootsies be toasty warm, but you'll also be spreading good vibes everywhere you go. Bonus points for mismatched socks – because who needs to conform to the sock establishment anyway?

Hot Chocolate Olympics ☕ Move over, regular hot chocolate – it's time for the Hot Chocolate Olympics! Experiment with different flavors, toppings, and even go wild with a marshmallow tower competition. Invite friends and family to join the fun, and may the best cup of cocoa win. It's a sweet way to warm up from the inside out!

DIY Blanket Fort Extravaganza 🏰 Why settle for a regular blanket when you can have a blanket fort palace? Channel your inner architect and build the coziest fort imaginable. Fill it with pillows, fairy lights, and your favorite snacks. Whether you're binge-watching a series or reading a good book, your blanket fort is sure to become your winter haven.

Dance Party Heating System 💃 Crank up the tunes and turn your living room into a dance floor! Not only will you be generating your own body heat, but you'll also have a blast doing it. Pick your favorite dance jams, gather the family or invite friends over, and dance away the winter chill. Who says exercise can't be a dance party?

Winter Wonderland Photo Scavenger Hunt 📷 Turn a chilly day into a picture-perfect adventure! Create a winter-themed photo scavenger hunt checklist and explore your neighborhood or a nearby park. Capture the beauty of frosty landscapes, snow-covered trees, or even adorable winter critters. Share your masterpieces on social media and turn your winter day into a virtual gallery.

❄️ Winter may be in full swing, but that doesn't mean we can't have a blast! Whether you're dancing the cold away or building a blanket fort, remember: the best way to beat the chill is with laughter, creativity, and a whole lot of warmth from the inside out! Stay cozy, friends!
