Description:
Although modern couples plan weddings that reflect each person¡¯s individuality, roses have remained a bridal tradition throughout many generations.?Many people feel nothing conveys love better than a rose.
?Suitors introduced the rose as a symbol of love in the Victorian Era.?Strict rules of conduct made it impossible for smitten young men to express their emotions verbally.?A ¡°language of flowers¡± developed, which allowed lovers to communicate sentiments by the type, color, and number of flowers they gave one another.?
?
The gift of red roses is a declaration of love, while pink roses convey sweetness, grace, and poetic romance.?White roses carried on a bride¡¯s wedding day signify eternal love, purity, and innocence.
?
According to tradition, long-stemmed roses are an expression of love and devotion.?They represent love that is deep and long-lasting.?Because the number twelve represents a complete cycle, a dozen roses are the symbol of complete love.?Since there are 24 hours in a day, two dozen roses signify complete devotion each moment of every day.
?
Regardless of the color or number, a bouquet of roses is a special way to send a message of love.
