A Sunny Design For Memorial Day

Al's Florist joins the rest of the country this May 28th to honor those men and women who sacrificed their lives in service to country. We gather together to attend parades and ceremonies devoted to celebrating their legacy, and we also host dinners, parties and barbecues in our own homes, often outdoors. Flowers are a customary part of any celebration, while also being a traditional gift to offer someone who is deserving. In many cases, Memorial Day centers around the people who have been most impacted by the loss of someone who served in the military. We want the perfect s to express our feelings to them, but we also seek s that capture the spirit of the social events we host. Since Memorial Day weekend is often thought of as a prelude to summer, we see s that nod to the season as a crucial part of your event's decor. Read More about A Sunny Design For Memorial Day »
