Regardless of the occasion, modern floral arrangements are a timeless, classic gift idea that appeals to almost any receiver. Although many of us consider flowers a romantic gift, it is also the perfect gift idea for Mom, sisters, cousins, great friends, bosses, and so on, depending on the occasion. What makes the difference between a romantic gift and one appropriate for other receivers is the arrangement itself. Here are some ideas for floral arrangements that are modern and beautiful for any occasion and receiver:
Bold and Vibrant
Shades such as vibrant reds and yellows, such as fall arrangements, are very popular as gifts for non-romantic occasions. They are ideal for coordinating with most décor styles so long as the shades are not overwhelming or clashing, such as a combination of reds, orange, yellow, green, and white. Stay away from the cliché rose arrangement and consider one that is more imaginative if it is not supposed to be a romantic gift.
Ideas: Daisies, orchids, tulips, carnations, lilies, chrysanthemums, or hydrangea.
Classic and Elegant
Classic combinations are also ideal for all occasions, especially formal events, and include many different color combinations. Choose colors that coordinate with the event, and if there is any doubt regarding color suitability go with white and muted colors. This is an excellent choice for events such as graduation gifts, funeral arrangements, banquet centerpieces, and similar ideas.
Ideas: Orchids, tulips, lilies, zinnias, and chrysanthemums.
Less is More
Many modern floral arrangements are very simple but make a big statement, such as a few lilies in a modern vase with no added greenery. The simplicity of the lilies and their sleek leaves combined with the artwork on a modern vase makes a bold impact for any occasion-even a just-because gift or gift to celebrate an obscure event such as "Secretary's Day." Unlike the arrangements of years ago that featured many of the same type or different types of flowers combined with extra greenery for fullness, modern arrangements are usually very simple and understated.
Ideas: One to five live or dried orchids, lilies, hydrangea, tulips, large daisies, sunflowers, hyacinth, or cherry blossom branches.
Live or Dried
It is a common misconception that beautiful floral arrangements that are modern and sophisticated can only incorporate live or silk flower ideas. As a matter of fact, more people choose dried flowers or branches simply because they are elegant and beautiful, and also because they are already adequately preserved and designed to last a long time. In many cases there is still a wonderful aroma on the dried flower or branch, whether it is a lingering smell from the live plant or artificially added, and it is a subtle touch that makes a big impact.
Ideas: Wheat or straw, grasses, lavender, maidenhair fern, flax, or Galax leaves.
