Anniversaries are special milestones in a relationship, and there’s no better way to celebrate them than with a thoughtful bouquet of anniversary flowers. Flowers speak the language of love, symbolizing romance, joy, and commitment. At DaVinci Flower in Plainview, NY, we help you choose the best flowers to express your feelings on every anniversary. Whether you’re celebrating your first year together or a golden (50th) anniversary, the right blooms can convey your love in a beautiful, meaningful way. As a local Plainview florist, we even offer same-day anniversary flower delivery in Plainview and surrounding areas davinciflower.com, so you can surprise your partner with fresh, romantic flowers whenever you need.
Top Anniversary Flowers and Their Meanings
Choosing the best flowers for an anniversary means picking blooms that carry the right message. Here are some of the most popular anniversary flowers and what they symbolize:
- Roses. Red roses are the classic symbol of deep love and romance, making them perfect for anniversaries. (Pink roses express admiration, and white roses represent purity, so we have colors for every sentiment.) Our Plainview shop carries many rose bouquets – from a dozen classic red roses to mixed-color arrangements – so you can celebrate your love in style.
- Lilies. Elegant lilies (such as Asiatic or stargazer lilies) convey purity and renewal. Their graceful, fragrant blooms make them ideal for meaningful occasions. A white or pink lily bouquet adds sophistication and heartfelt emotion to an anniversary celebration.
- Tulips. Bright and cheerful, tulips symbolize happiness and fresh beginnings. They are a modern, stylish choice for a joyful anniversary. Springtime couples often choose tulip bouquets, and we offer several tulip arrangements in our Fresh Bouquets collection to brighten your special day.
- Orchids. Exotic orchids represent luxury, strength, and beauty. They are long-lasting and elegant, perfect for milestone anniversaries or when you want to give a truly premium gift. DaVinci’s orchid arrangements (including phalaenopsis and cymbidium orchids) make unforgettable anniversary presents for someone who appreciates something extraordinary.
- Carnations. Carnations are long-lasting, affordable, and full of meaning. Traditionally the flower of the first anniversary, the carnation symbolizes innocence and admiration. (Pink carnations especially mean love and affection.) We often include carnations in mixed anniversary bouquets or standalone arrangements for young couples starting their married life.
- Daisies. Cheerful daisies stand for innocence and loyal love. They are the traditional choice for a 5th anniversary, as daisies mean “forever love”. Our Plainview shop offers bright daisy bouquets and mixed arrangements to celebrate long-lasting bonds with optimism.
- Peonies. Soft, romantic peonies (available in late spring) symbolize prosperity, good fortune, and a happy marriage. Their lush petals and subtle fragrance make them a favorite for weddings and anniversaries alike.
- Sunflowers. Bold sunflowers represent joy, positivity, and warmth. A sunflower bouquet brings sunshine to any anniversary, and is especially fitting if you’re celebrating a “sunny” milestone like the summer of your love. For a pop of color, try our “Sunshine All Your Life” bouquet – it’s designed to “brighten your surroundings and uplift your spirit,” making it a joyful anniversary gift.
Each of these flowers carries its own special meaning. By mixing and matching them, you can create a bouquet that tells your unique story. Browse our full flower collection of anniversary bouquets online to see these popular options in action.
Anniversary Flowers by Year and Milestone
Long-standing traditions assign specific flowers to certain anniversary years. Using these can add an extra layer of meaning to your gift. For example:
- 1st Anniversary: Carnations (often white or pink) are traditional for Year 1. They symbolize the innocence and admiration of a new marriage. (Other traditional flowers for year one include orange blossoms and pansies.)
- 5th Anniversary: Daisies are the traditional gift for Year 5. They mean “forever love” and represent the joy and layers of a marriage after five years. A mixed bouquet featuring white and yellow daisies can celebrate your strong bond and cheerful future together.
- 10th Anniversary: Yellow daffodils are the traditional 10th-anniversary flower. Daffodils symbolize fond memories and hope for the future. If daffodils are hard to find, any yellow flowers or mixed spring bouquets (like tulips and daisies) can serve a similar bright, hopeful message for a decade together.
- 25th Anniversary (Silver): Chrysanthemums (often white or red) are traditional for 25 years. They stand for resilience and the layers of a long marriage. A silver-themed bouquet might use white lilies or chrysanthemums accented with silver-toned foliage to honor a quarter-century together.
- 50th Anniversary (Golden): The 50th anniversary is famously the golden anniversary. Traditional flowers are yellow roses and violets. Yellow roses symbolize friendship, beauty, and prosperity, while violets stand for commitment and humility. Together they celebrate enduring love. We carry luxurious yellow-rose arrangements and can add violets or purple accents to your bouquet for a 50-year celebration.
Beyond these, every milestone is a reason to celebrate. Our florists can help you select flowers based on the year or simply the sentiment you want to express. Whether it’s your 2nd, 15th, or 40th anniversary, DaVinci Flower has ideas to make the gift perfect.
Choosing the Right Anniversary Bouquet
When picking an anniversary bouquet, consider your partner’s tastes, the anniversary year, and seasonal availability. For example, if your spouse loves a certain flower (like lilies or orchids), start there. Match colors to the occasion: red and pink for passion, pastels for gentle romance, yellows and whites for friendship and devotion. We also recommend mixing focal flowers with greenery and filler blooms to add volume and texture.
As Plainview’s local florist, DaVinci Flower offers custom design options. You can browse our Floral Services page to learn about personalized bouquet design. Our experts can tailor an arrangement to your needs—whether that means adding a custom vase, including chocolates, or adjusting colors. We’ll ensure your anniversary bouquet captures exactly what you want to say.
Seasonal, Popular, and Luxury Anniversary Bouquets
We update our selections throughout the year to feature seasonal blooms and trending styles:
- Seasonal Anniversary Flowers: Different seasons bring different blossoms. In spring, we highlight tulips, daffodils, and pastel roses. Summer brings sunflowers, dahlias, and hydrangeas; fall showcases chrysanthemums and orange/red roses; winter can offer amaryllis, white lilies, or festive arrangements with pine accents. Choosing in-season flowers means they’ll be at peak freshness. For example, our “Gentle Confession” bouquet (with pink roses and lilies) feels right at home in spring or summer.
- Popular Arrangements: Some bouquets are perennial favorites. Many customers love our “A Little Romance Flower” arrangement – it’s described as capturing “the sweet simplicity of a gentle expression of affection”. For a vibrant gift, “Sunshine All Your Life” (featuring sunflowers and yellow blooms) is very popular – its description says it brings “warmth and positivity” wherever it’s placed. The “Eternal Love Flower” is a lush bouquet designed to symbolize “timeless devotion and unending affection”, perfect for any anniversary. These classic designs are stocked year-round in our Fresh Bouquets collection.
- Luxury Choices: For milestone anniversaries or when you want to impress, consider our high-end options. Exotic orchids, premium long-stemmed rose bouquets, and large mixed arrangements fall into this category. Our “Eternal Love Flower” is a luxury design (21 or 33 stems of premium flowers) that truly makes a statement. We also carry preserved flower arrangements and designer vases if you want a gift that lasts. Just mention your anniversary level to us, and we’ll suggest a bouquet that fits your budget and style – from elegant orchids to a lavish dozen red roses.
