It's hard to believe that it's almost here! That famous day of love...St. Valentine's Day. It's by far the busiest floral holiday of the year, and you can feel it in the air here at Bank of Memories & Flowers. We begin the Valentine's Day preparation months in advance, from pre-ordering our flowers, to choosing this years specialty containers, chocolates, and stuffed animals.
As we approach the holiday, the buzz and excitement builds here at the store. Our shop owner Melissa puts together an "Emergency Kit" filled with snacks and goodies for all of us gals and our fearless drivers. Krista and Luan, our managers, put together contests and challenges to keep us on our toes and make this busy and stressful holiday a fun and light-hearted one. And all of us workers bring in food for a week-long pot luck, so we don't have to worry about making lunches each day! And this is just the non-floral prep for this big day!
This week, we will receive countless boxes of roses and other fresh flowers, each requiring special processing and care. The holiday containers and candies get unpacked and the shelves stocked. After all of this, we are ready to assist customers with their individual requests. After the orders are taken, each order is hand-designed by one of our team members, packaged with care, and sent out into the world...to be delivered by one of our friendly delivery drivers!
It's sounds like we are ready for Valentine's Day....ARE YOU? Give us a call, we're ready to help you make this holiday of love a truly special one! 1-262-253-9111 for our Menomonee Falls store, and 1-262-695-9911 for our Pewaukee store.
Happy Valentine's Day!
