Prom Time in San Diego!

Prom time is here again in San Diego, which means dresses, tuxes, limos and fun! It is that magic memory that most high schoolers enjoy in their junior and senior years of school. With a chance to dress up and work off some steam from a year of hard work, proms often require a lot of time and effort to find the perfect ensemble as well as the flowers to go with it – both corsages and boutonnieres. Our Prom Flower Selection We’re here to get you ready for the prom with a beautiful selection of corsages and boutonnieres in a wide range of colors, styles, and flower varieties. These include roses, orchids, carnations and more along with corsages that have accent features like rhinestones, pearls, and greenery. Many of prom flowers are reflective of the season in terms of spring flowers on-hand. The corsage flower designs also are regularly updated to mirror current prom flower trends or to introduce new styles that can coordinate with today’s fashions. Prom Flower Advice And, when it comes to picking out a corsage or boutonniere, there are not many rules about what works best. However, we do have some recommendations: Go with something that coordinates with your dress but does not necessarily have to match it. Pick a color that goes with your dress in a contrasting color. The flower in the corsage should be mirrored in the boutonniere in terms of variety and color to create that couple look. Pick a style that you like and that means something to you rather than just going with what is trendy. Like your dress, it should reflect your personality. You don’t have to go the traditional route where the guy buys the corsage and the [...]

Take Her to the Homecoming Dance

Fall is finally here. Can’t you feel it in the air? There are some obvious changes that indicate fall’s presence like shorter days and the changing colors to the leaves. Other changes have been that the new season of football has arrived and some of the public’s favorite television shows, too. What else comes with fall though besides a plethora of birthdays and holidays? The Homecoming dance and game, of course! Homecoming Most of you probably have hands-on experience with the events of Homecoming, a school holiday and festival of sorts that often lasts more than just the evening of the dance and game. In fact, many schools celebrate Homecoming ‘week’ as it really does signify the return of students and teachers to the school for hopefully another great year. The main event is obviously the game and, of course, the dance (surely the ladies and gentlemen will argue about which is truly more important). However, the game and the dance are not the only things that go on during Homecoming week. The week is most often a school spirit week and with that each day has a dress up theme from crazy hair to pajamas. Schools will also sometimes host parades and festivals as fundraisers. Then, there are pep rallies and sometimes even bonfires. The Big Game and the Dance The Homecoming game and dance are often themed to help keep things interesting and students will sometimes dress appropriately to the theme. While you won’t need flowers for the game, you guys will certainly need them for the dance. At Allen’s Flowers and Plants, we offer a quality selection of dance appropriate flowers as well as various gorgeous arrangements of fall themed flowers. You will be sure to find a [...]
