While the early days of winter are often called “cuffing season,” as we make our way into December and January, we enter… BREAKUP SEASON. In fact, December 11th takes the crown for the most breakups recorded out of the whole year! 

If you’re reeling from a breakup, or anticipating one on the horizon, I’ve got the self-love medicine you need: a monthly flower subscription from Bouqs. 

Hear me out: I got dumped last year by a guy (a professional clown! I wish I were kidding) and I treated myself to a super over-the-top bouquet. It was the best choice I’d made for my personal life in years. So I decided to make it a monthly thing. And I can guarantee that, unlike your ex, Bouqs flowers will show up for you reliably, elevate your home, and last a long time. ;-) 

Rebuild Your Trust

If you’ve been devastated by a breakup – or, honestly, let down by other flower services – you might be scared to trust again. I certainly relate! But here’s why Bouqs won me over and why it’s the most stable committed relationship I’ve been in:

Best-Looking Flowers

From bright and peppy to lush and moody, Bouqs has the perfect arrangements for whatever phase of the breakup you find yourself in – Despair, Denial, Dancing On My Own… They’re all designed by an in-house florist, and feel super chic and modern. I like to order their “Deluxe” option for an extra full bouquet, and it’s still more affordable than the equivalent at UrbanStems or 1-800-Flowers. (The Deluxe Breakup Bouq is currently only $52 for 24 stems!) 

Sourcing & Delivery

Bouqs ships their flower subscriptions directly from farms, meaning that they don’t languish in a warehouse somewhere and arrive on your doorstep half-dead. It’s a straight shot from where it’s grown to your door! Fresher flowers means longer-lasting flowers means you get something beautiful to distract you from your pain for a few extra days.

Most of Bouqs’ flowers arrive in bud form, meaning they spring to life before your very eyes and (again) last for what seems like forever. Which, again, is more than I can say about my previous partner. (I’m really milking this bad pun, but it feels appropriate!)

There’s also a ton of bouquets that offer next-day delivery – and even same-day! – for when you get that “we need to talk” text and have a feeling that you’re going to be single tomorrow. 

Flexibility & Design

If I’m out of town, I can go into my dashboard and change my delivery date – or even the delivery address, if I decide I want my monthly bouquet to go to someone else instead! Nine out of ten times I send the flowers to myself, but I’m only human, and sometimes I just need a last minute gift (my sister will NEVER know I almost forgot her birthday this year). Plus there are more than 50 bouquets to choose from, including ever-changing seasonal designs!

Be The Bestie That Brightens A Breakup

So yes, you can order bouquets to be delivered to your door on the monthly, but you can also get individual bouquets! Perfect for when one of your friends gets dumped. Because words truly aren’t enough when it comes to heartbreak. And Bouqs is the only flower delivery service I trust to boost my friends’ spirits!

When I’ve ordered flowers from other delivery services, flowers would show up wilted, the blooms would die within a couple of days, and the arrangements themselves were just not cute. Bouqs came through for me every single time – with a huge variety of bouquets, all arriving fresh and lasting way longer than expected.

I don’t remember the first Bouq I ever ordered (there have been dozens at this point!), but I’m really loving their Breakup Season-specific options, The Breakup Bouq and Emergency Cheer, as a bright spot in a gloomy season: 

These blooms are so gorgeous, I may order myself a couple right now. Clearly I have a type – in bouquets (dreamy + sweet) and men (avoidant “performance artists”).
