I know that the rose is not everyone's cup of tea, but just hear me out, okay?

First, Why you think you hate roses...

Grocery stores have ruined the rose's image.  

The rose has a major PR problem thanks to how poorly they've been represented (or misrepresented!) by folks who have no business in the flower business!

In short, sometimes in life you get what you pay for.

Now, Why the rose is actually perfect for you...

The rose is SO classic and versatile.  

Whether you love "wedding white" or prefer a two-toned yellow petal with a red tipped edge, roses come in shades and varieties that can work with any color palette.

They are hardy and make almost any arrangement feel more elegant.  Even if you describe your style as casual or rustic a few roses in bouquets or centerpieces add a touch of weddingness.  (Yes, I just made up that word...weddingness.  I know you know what I mean.)

Have I convinced you?

What will it take to make you fall in love with roses?

With love from me to you,
