What's summer without both flowers and music? And why not marry the two? We've got an essential playlist you can keep on the rotation all summer long, and the best part is, our track picks are all inspired by flowers.

Flowers Inspired By France

It's vacation season, and many of us have been planning a European getaway for a long time, just waiting for the moment to pack our bags and go.

‘Tis The Season For Wedding Flowers

It's that time again, the month of marriage, anniversaries and overall romantic merriment. More people marry in June than any other time of the year, owing to its general temperate nature. It's also a great month for flowers, which bloom profusely now, in every color of the rainbow (texture, too). There are so many events surrounding all of those weddings that call for additional flowers. As a guest, you may want to give them, or as the bride, you may be looking for the perfect centerpiece for your bridal luncheon. That's where Ah Sam Flowers comes in.

Make It A Tranquil Father’s Day

“He didn’t tell me how to live; he lived, and let me watch him do it.” -Clarence Budington Kelland, American writer (1881-1964), about his father Fathers teach us so many things in life, whether the lessons are deliberate or we simply watch and learn. The floral designers at Ah Sam Florist know that dads who set strong examples for their children should be celebrated. This year, Father’s Day falls on June 17th and is a great chance to thank your dad for the impact he’s made in your life. Send a card, take him to lunch, or gift him with a special item that reflects everything he is to you. Read More about Make It A Tranquil Father’s Day »

A Lush Bouquet For Your Bestie

They say friendship is when someone knows all about you but likes you anyway. Best friends are those special individuals that know all our quirks and imperfections and still love us unconditionally. Sometimes we just need to take a moment and recognize how important our friends are to us. June 8th is a great time to honor those precious friendships by celebrating Best Friend’s Day. Of course, at Ah Sam Flowers we believe the best way to show your best friend how much your value her is with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Read More about A Lush Bouquet For Your Bestie »

All The Memorial Day Parties

Memorial Day is a time to honor and acknowledge the brave sacrifice so many of our men and women made in service to country. To that end, we come together at parades and ceremonies to remember their courage. We also think of the three-day weekend as a time to celebrate the arrival of summer, which is just around the corner. This is a time when friends and family are together, often outdoors, enjoying potlucks, barbecues and---if we're lucky---the pool. Ah Sam Flowers recognizes that the flowers we exchange or use to decorate with at this time have a couple of different functions; they must speak to the poignancy of the occasion at hand, but also capture the festive, social spirit.

Celebrate All The Mamas

They say Mother's Day is like the Superbowl of Flowers, and Ah Sam Florist would agree. It seems everyone is dying to get their hands on---and give---the most beautiful and meaningful bouquet of blossoms that ever was. Mother's Day arrives in one of the best seasons for flowers; spring's bounty is bright, bold, feminine, romantic and enticing. It's not hard to find something gorgeous to offer your mom. The only question is how you'll narrow it down to just one floral gift. Read More about Celebrate All The Mamas »
