Share Your Love

Donate Your Flowers After Your Wedding

I’m excited to let you know about a wonderful way to share a part your big day with those who would REALLY appreciate it. After your wedding, instead of throwing out your floral arrangements or begging your guests to take them home, I will deliver them to the nearest hospital or nursing home. This would be an easy way to do something special as you start your new life together. Picture the huge smiles on the faces of patients and staff members that will enjoy your beautiful flowers for several days after your wedding.

Our first wedding with the program was on June 27th, 2008 at the Westin Hotel in Itasca. The bride and groom donated 27 floral arrangements to the Lexington Assisted Living Facility. As of 2010, our couples have donated over 2,500 arrangements!

 

MY INSPIRATION TO START SHARE YOUR LOVE

Davids GrandparentsThese are my grandparents who were married 71 years. They lived to 94 and 91. He made her breakfast in bed everyday and always brought her flowers from their garden. After they passed away I want to create something as memorial to their love. That was my inspiration to start my Share Your Love Program. Each winter they would drive about 6 miles an hour from Freeport, IL down to Clearwater Beach, FL in their 1972 Olds 98. They always stayed at the same hotels and restaurants and were known by everyone along the way. He went to med school at age 15 and was a doctor in the army for 20 years. She was an amazing poet and actually went to high school with Dear Abby and Ann Landers. They were an amazing couple. While he was on his death bed, she read her poetry to him at his request , especially the poetry she had written about their lives together. They were inseparable.

This program is dedicated to the memory of their love.

 

This is a FREE program for everyone involved.
All we need is your permission!

 

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:

  • Email or call me and say you’d like to donate your flowers
  • Tell your florist that you would like keep all your flowers and they should pick up the glassware after the wedding.
  • If you're using some of the flowers for your brunch the next day, David can take whichever arrangements you're not using. Even if it's just a few arrangements it can make a big difference
  • I will select a hospital or assisted living facility and make arrangements to deliver the flowers after the wedding.

After the wedding, I will round up all the flowers
and load them into my car.

Then that night or the next morning, I drop off the flowers to one of several Nursing Homes, Hospitals or Women/Children's Shelters in the Chicagoland area.

The Residents LOVE getting the flowers.
It makes them feel like they were a part of the wedding too!
