There’s nothing better than that rush of feelings you get when you’re finally reunited with family members or close classmates from your younger years. From family reunions to alumni events, reminiscing about the good old days calls for a fresh, welcoming, and TikTok-worthy backdrop! If you’re looking for some special occasion floral inspiration, you’ve come to the right place. Grab your caffeinated beverage of choice (or a glass of wine to calm those event-planning nerves) and dive into some fun flower ideas with the experts at Flora D’ Amore. We’re certain your next reunion will be a blooming good time!
Decorate Entrances to Your Home or Venue
The start of an unforgettable event begins at the entrance! Whether it’s the entrance to your home, school, park, or swanky venue, let it set the tone for the day with a luxe floral design that guests can’t wait to walk through. Adorning doorways with large arrangements or installing impressive floral arches will give your attendees a wave of excitement and peace of mind that they’re in the right place! Use an array of colors, sizes, and textures to kick off the celebration in style.
Give Guests Wearable Flowers for Elegant Accessories
While some reunion hosts opt for passing out name tags or creative ways to indicate the year of your graduating class, you can choose to gift each guest a wearable floral design. Accessories like flower crowns, corsages, and boutonnieres are a fresh and colorful way to help break the ice with guests. If you want to incorporate an identifying element, a specific color or flower type is a subtle and elegant idea. For formal events, flower accessories are a classic and beautiful way to elevate any ensemble!
Elevate Tables with Elegant Centerpieces
No event is complete without eye-catching and conversation-starting floral centerpieces, and your reunion is no exception! Incorporate your school colors into each design to create a cohesive atmosphere with sprinkles of nostalgia — honoring school spirit and evoking pleasant memories. For your family reunion, choose an event theme that will resonate with everyone, whether you find inspiration in a favorite family vacay destination or in an iconic memory that everyone still talks about today. Bring these memories to life with the finest, freshest flower arrangements.
Have a Floral Bar to Make DIY Projects
Now that the decor has been taken care of, it’s time to start thinking about activities that everyone will want to participate in—from grandparents to grandchildren! One of our personal favorites is a DIY flower bar, where guests can create their very own floral creations, like bouquets and arrangements or wearable pieces they can show off all day long. Consider having a floral “bartender” to lead a design workshop or assist guests with their own unique memorable works of art that will bloom for days to come.
Use Flowers as Markers and Prizes for Winning Scavenger Hunts
Another activity that gets everybody up and on their feet is an old-fashioned scavenger hunt…but for this reunion, we’re making it all about flowers! While solving puzzles with friends and family, guests will spy flowers that are thoughtfully placed throughout the venue. Each stem can represent a clue, be a hidden treasure, or guide guests on an imaginative quest as they collect blooms to create one gorgeous bouquet! There’s no better prize than that.
Teaming up with Flora D’ Amore will ensure your next reunion will be one for the yearbooks—whether it’s a family festivity or a nostalgic get-together with old classmates
