Creating a Patriotic Atmosphere

When planning a party, always keep the theme top of mind. Kick off your Memorial Day party by decorating your space with the colors of the American flag. Incorporate red, white, and blue accents throughout, and showcase The Million Roses' preserved flower arrangements as the centerpiece of your decorations. The best part? The flowers last for years and can be re-used and incorporated again and again in all your future summer parties to come. There's even a special flower box available proudly showcasing the American flag.  

The Feeling of Summer

If weather permits, take your gathering outdoors. Set up cozy seating areas adorned with beautiful flowers from The Million Roses. Consider placing candles or fairy lights around the area to create a magical ambiance as the sun sets.

Creating Themed Invitations 

Design eye-catching digital or printed invitations with patriotic motifs. Encourage guests to wear red, white, and blue attire to add to the festive spirit.

Your Guest List Matters 

Invite close friends, family, and neighbors who appreciate good company, delicious food, and the beauty of flowers. Remind them to RSVP in advance to help you plan accordingly.

Themed Refreshments

Serve a variety of patriotic-themed appetizers, snacks, and drinks. Arrange fruit platters with red and blue berries and offer refreshing beverages like blueberry lemonade or strawberry-infused water. Use The Million Roses' floral arrangements as elegant table centerpieces.

Mouthwatering BBQ

Nothing says Summer like a good BBQ! Fire up the grill and serve classic American BBQ favorites like burgers, hot dogs, and grilled vegetables. Enhance the dining experience by setting up tables adorned with The Million Roses' preserved flower boxes, adding a touch of elegance to the festivities.

Engaging Activities & Tribute Display

Designate a space to pay tribute to the brave men and women who have served in the armed forces. Create a wall of remembrance using photos, flags, and heartfelt messages. 

Lawn Games

Organize friendly competitions with classic lawn games like cornhole, horseshoes, or badminton. Sprinkle The Million Roses' petals around the gaming area to add an enchanting touch.

Personalized Flower Gifts

As a token of appreciation, gift your guests small arrangements or single preserved flowers from The Million Roses. Attach personalized notes expressing gratitude for their presence and support.
