Tips To Send Flowers Long Distance

November 9th, 2017

Sending flowers to a loved one is a great way to let them know how much you care. It will surely brighten up his/ her day. Presenting flowers to loved ones living nearby may be easy, but sending flowers to those far away can be a challenge.

 While it is easy to contact the store of a local florist and place the order for an arrangement, some of your loved ones may be far away from the delivery area of the florist. But don’t lose heart-there may be other modes to send flowers long distance and you can ensure that flowers be simply beautiful, spectacular and win the recipient’s heart.

For long distance shipping, you may need the following:

  • Mobile phone
  • Telephone directory/ yellow pages/ online directories
  • Access to internet
  • Debit/ credit cards
  • Fax machine
  • Address of recipient.

How To Order

An order may be placed via online mode. You can pay the florist through the net and flowers may be delivered at any global destination. For instance, you can achieve the task of sending flowers to Pakistan from anywhere.

Some florists specialize in taking online orders. Their staff in the local area will deliver the flower bunch in person to the recipient. Because payment is completed instantly via credit card, the florists often offer delivery, the same day. This is a popular method as you can enjoy online the pictures of flowers you send and be informed about services offered by the florist. You can even browse through reviews of the florist from past customers.

 Another option is to order via smartphone or mobile. You can make payment using debit/credit cards to the florist without really visiting their premises. Another idea is to place an order using fax. Orders for flower arrangements can be sent by fax to the florist. He will get in touch to arrange for payment and to assure the accuracy of your order.

If nothing else, pay a visit to the florist. Order flowers for the sake of your loved one. Thanks to shipping services like FedEx and UPS, shipping of flowers is very much possible. In case florists are national retailers, it may possess shops which can complete the order in any location and do delivery of the flower arrangement in that location.

You can even arrange for someone like a friend to take delivery of a flower arrangement from the local florist and this can save shipping fees. Or else, find a delivery service in the locality. In case florist does not deliver in a particular location, there might be services that will do the delivery for a price. Worst comes to worst, request the recipient to pick up the flowers herself. You can still retain an element of surprise by not revealing who they are for until the last minute.

While ordering flowers, keep in mind that they are seasonal. Try and choose the favorite flowers of the recipient but remember that the season has a great impact on their availability.

 The key is to plan much ahead of sending a bunch of flowers. Long distance delivery like orders to send flowers to Pakistan from UK needs preparation in advance. So if you are thinking about occasions like Eid or even a birthday, make early plans.

The Best Way To Plan A Surprise Birthday Party!

November 6th, 2017

Often birthdays of special ones make us very eager. We wait more eagerly for the date to arrive, for us to throw them a surprise party and shower our love in the form of gifts and cakes. So, in today’s article, we will be talking about the commonest thing of all, how to make a successful surprise birthday party.

  1. Cake- the most important thing is the cake when it comes to the birthday celebration. And since you are throwing a surprise birthday treat, make sure the birthday girl/boy has no clue about the cake delivery. Also, if you know the preference of the cake then you can make it special too. Go for personalized cakes, because they look amazing and they are really trending these days.
  2. The theme for the party- since you are the organizer, you have to think of a theme. Based on that theme, you need to arrange for the decorations, keep a dress code and order the cake. Also, you need to keep in mind whether the party is going to be a day event or a night event. All these things have to be synced in properly, or else your preparation looks very haphazard. And I am sure this is not what you want to be spreading by word of mouth.
  3. Guestlist- now remember; this is not your birthday party. It is for someone else. So the guest list has to be according to the birthday girl/boy. So, if that means you need to invite someone you don’t really like but those people are close to the birthday girl then you have to invite them too. The whole point is to make a memorable birthday bash. So you do whatever it takes.
  4. Food and drinks- this is the most important part when it comes to any party. Many people only for a party invite to the free food and drinks. So, you might end up inviting a few such people too. But then it is something you just can’t avoid! So, make sure you get the best of caterers to take care of the drinks and food. Also, do supervise the menu prepared by the caterers and please do not leave everything up to them. Your involvement is necessary.
  5. The surprising part- this is the most important part. You need to make sure that the birthday girl/boy has no clue about the birthday party otherwise there is no point in organizing a surprise birthday party. You could order birthday cakes online so that the birthday boy is clueless. Also, make sure that all the party planning is done without him/her knowing anything.

I am sure keeping these things in mind if you throw a surprise birthday party it will never go flop. Also, just a tip for the planner- make a list of the duties you need to fulfill and to avoid any confusion. Avoid last minute decisions and if the party responsibilities are too much then you must delegate some work.
