August Celebrates National Romance Month

February gives us Valentine’s Day, and the holidays have a romantic magic of their own – but did you know that the entire month of August is also set aside for romance? We think this observance is perfectly timed, after all, the summer is made for love! Whether you love spontaneous surprises, little love notes, or flowers sent to work, this is the time to express your affection in fun and creative ways. The team at Mission Viejo Florist has been assisting you with all your romantic gestures for over 40 years, and we have the romantic bouquets and passionate floral arrangements you will need to celebrate National Romance Month.

Romantic Flowers: Red roses are universally recognized as the number one flower to express true love and passion. However, you can also choose from other flowers that may carry more personal significance for you. For instance, pink roses represent an innocent and affectionate infatuation, daisies represent young or new love, and peonies are representative of marital happiness. And if you want to make a bold declaration of your intentions, red tulips are a confident choice.

There's no better way to cheer someone up than to send our "Sweet Surprise" bouquet. A clear vase arrives filled with gerbera daisies, roses, Bells of Ireland, hydrangeas, and filler.

While you may be intimidated by the thought of planning a big romantic evening, you don’t have to be. Romantic gestures  – the “little things”  – are often more impactful and meaningful. So plan a picnic and let the Saturday chores wait, or turn off all the electronics and play board games by candlelight! Leave him love notes around the house, or send her flowers at work – the romance is sure to follow.

Did You Know? Studies have shown that men who kiss their significant other “goodbye” in the morning tend to make more money! That’s right affectionate men also seem to be more reliable and more productive – translating to better job performance and higher salaries overall. So kiss your sweetheart, and then buy something nice to spoil them!

More interesting facts about love include:

  • Men fall in love faster than women do.
  • Love is a drug and can be just as addictive as cocaine.
  • Women are more attracted to men who have a good sense of humor.
  • Hugging your SO instantly reduces stress.
  • Being in love improves your emotional and physical health.
  • Cuddling releases happiness hormones and improves your mood and wellbeing.
  • Being in love can reduce chronic pain.
  • Honesty helps relationships last.

Finally, love and laughter go hand-in-hand. Those who laugh together stay together longer, so go on and cue up that silly comedy.


Lush and exquisite, this arrangement of lilies, roses, eucalyptus, and more is sure to turn heads. Perfect for celebrating an anniversary, birthday, or milestone event.

Keeping the fires of passion alive by being romantic can transform your relationship and your life. You will become more positive, happy, secure, and have a better outlook on life.
