When you think of the perfect month to celebrate weddings, what month comes to mind? According to the National Association of Bridal Consultants, National Wedding Month is February, a fact that may seem surprising to some. Across the country, winter is not the most popular time to host a wedding. Still, here at Breen's Florist, we do think there are many valid reasons that this month is a great one to celebrate the institution.
Quick Trivia: There are approximately 2.4 million weddings annually - or an average of 6,200 ceremonies per day. That is a lot of wedding cake! Read More about February Designated to Celebrate Weddings »

There is no day on the calendar more closely linked to sending beautiful flowers than February 14th. As we anticipate this special day, the designers at Breen's Florist have created a collection of Valentine's Day florals ranging from sweet to romantic, providing something for every couple celebrating together. So whether you are newly dating, or have been married for decades, we have the flowers that will convey your affection and love. Love is an adventure, and we know just how to decorate it!
Valentine's Day can be a bit intimidating for those together only a short time, but there is no need for angst! Choose bright pink daisies, pastel tulips, or perhaps yellow roses - these flowers tell your special someone that they are important to you and that you wanted to buy them something beautiful, but they don't carry the implications of red roses.
