When is Mother’s Day 2024?
This year, Mother’s Day 2024 falls on Sunday, May 12, 2024.
What are the most popular flowers on Mother’s Day?
When it comes to buying flowers for Mother’s Day, white carnations are the official flower that symbolizes motherhood. But spring flowers like roses and peonies will definitely level up your Mother’s Day flower arrangement.
When is the last day to order flowers for Mother’s Day?
Mega online flower retailers such as 1-800-FLOWERS offer Saturday delivery, but you’ll often pay an extra delivery charge for delivery on Mother’s Day itself (Sunday). Many local flower shops and online flower retailers will deliver your Mother’s Day order anytime between Friday, May 10 and Sunday, May 12, 2024. Not all flower retailers will deliver on Mother’s Day, instead delivering the two days before.
Each flower retailer has different Mother’s Day delivery deadlines, but in general, the smaller the flower shop, the less flexibility it’ll have to accommodate last-minute orders. Even larger online flower retailers will see delivery spots fill up quickly. We suggest placing your Mother’s Day flower order at least a week in advance to guarantee you’re not shut out of flower delivery for Mother’s Day this year.
Can I send flowers before Mother’s Day?
There’s nothing quite like indulging Mom with a gorgeous flower delivery on the actual day of Mother’s Day, but if your flower deliverer of choice doesn’t deliver on Sunday or if you miss the delivery window for Mother’s Day, Mom will be equally as appreciative if her flowers arrive a few days early. Plus, asking for an earlier delivery date allows your flowers extra time in the event of a Mother’s Day shipping snafu that delays your order.
How to save money on Mother’s Day flower delivery
The easiest way to save money on Mother’s Day flower delivery this year is to order your arrangement early. That way, you avoid last-minute surcharges, shipping surcharges or paying higher prices because options are limited. You can also save money by choosing a delivery date earlier than Sunday, May 12, 2024.
