Pink Rose Bouquet
Ladies I need advice for a date! Is a pink rose a good idea?
I’m going on my 5th date with this girl and I want to bring her a single rose. I don’t want to bring a red one, because thats generally seen as being in love. I really like this girl and think shes beautiful and really sweet. Is a single pink rose a good idea? I got her a mixed bouquet for the 3rd date and she was really surprised. I want to step it up a notch and make her smile when I pick her up for dinner this week and show her that I care about her.
aww yes 
thats really cute, shes got a keeper! Hopefully she sees that

How to Send a Rose Bouquet
Roses have been around for centuries and the meanings associated with them date back centuries as well. While most of us know that red roses are a symbol of love, not everyone realizes that each color of rose has a very distinct and time honored meaning. The type and amount of roses that you choose to send can even send a message to the recipient. So the next time that you want to send a rose bouquet, refer to the following guide by Flower Places to make sure you are sending just the right message.
Red Roses: Red roses can be traced back to their affiliation with the Greek and Roman goddess of love. Many ancient cultures used red roses to decorate marriage ceremonies or as part of the wedding attire. The red rose has continued to be a symbol of lasting love and a way to say “I love you” to that special person in your life. While an entire bouquet of roses is always welcome, a single red rose has always been a way to say “I still love you” while a thornless red rose tells some that it was love at first sight.
Pink Roses: Pink roses existed in the wild long before people started to cultivate roses. When roses first became popular, they were cultivated predominately in shades of pink – from pale pink to deep crimson. Today, pink roses carry a variety of meanings depending on the hue. Pale pink roses symbolize gentleness, sweetness and admiration while dark pink roses mean gratitude and appreciation.
Yellow Roses: Surprisingly, yellow roses were once associated with feelings of jealousy and dying love. Many eastern cultures, however, associated the sun and feelings of warmth, joy, wisdom and power with the color yellow. Today, those are the feelings that most people associate with yellow roses.
White Roses: Many legends hold that the first rose was white and only after it was stained with blood or a first kiss did it turn to red. White roses symbolize innocence and purity and are often thought of as the bridal rose. Conversely, honor and reverence are also associated with white roses which make them popular in funeral arrangements as well.
Orange Roses: Orange roses are relatively new having been cultivated after the discovery of wild yellow roses. The color orange often brings to mind fire and passion. As orange roses are literally a mix of yellow and red roses, they are often thought of as symbolic of the move from friendship to love between two people.
Lilac, Lavender and Purple Roses: The mystical shades of purple roses often represent wonder, the impossible and evoke a sense of magic. Enchantment is often expressed by sending lavender roses while lilac is thought to represent love at first sight. Purple roses can be a very romantic alternative to the traditional red rose.

flower experts – what is a small, light pink bloom that would go well with my red rose bridal bouquet? Thank?
The best thing to do is to tell your florist what you want and let him or her choose the freshest small pink flower that the wholesaler has in stock to make your bouquet.
If you get obsessed with a particular kind of small, light pink flower then they would have to special order it and it might not be as fresh as you would like. Wedding bouquets have to last from before the ceremony and through the entire reception until you do the toss so flower freshness is key.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!! : )
