An Extra Sweet Valentine's Day for Two











Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, y'all! Can you believe it? Time is flying, right?

If you follow the blog, you know I am a huge fan of local florist, Kalla. Kalla specializes in curating one of a kind, stunning arrangements full of color and character. 

If you're not familiar with Kalla, let me give you the low down on why I adore them so much. For starters, the arrangements are curated like none other I have seen before. They are delivered via white glove service in an unforgettable, attention grabbing box (you MUST check it out here!) In fact, let's pause a moment to discuss the box itself.

It's a work of art in itself, honestly. Also full of vibrant colors and patterns, the bouquet rested comfortably in a drawer like compartment inside of the box organized wonderfully with a typed note and even a personalized sticker closure. Impeccable. In fact, the box which arrived with this arrangement is still sitting in my living room. It's almost too pretty for the trash :)

What makes Kalla even more special is the option to create and even more memorable experience by adding Kalla's exclusive artisan chocolates and Napa Valley wine with the bouquet. Yummy, right?


This Valentine's Day, Kalla is a gift both Shawn and I are equally enjoying at home together.  Two years ago, he and I decided traditional gifts were not as much our thing as much as we love spending time together giving the gift of memories and experiences.  Cheesy, I know!

To help with this, I bought us a cute box of suggested date night ideas from a local boutique.  The idea is to pull a card from the box on date night and commit to the cards suggestion.  They make any date night immediately more spontaneous and fun - you never know what you're going to get!  They range from "Eat at a German restaurant," to "Build a fort in your dining room with sheets and pillows and enjoy wine and a movie on your iPad." This is the date night suggestion I'm hoping we pull this Saturday :)  We'll curl up in our fort, Kalla wine and chocolates in hand, while we snuggling :) 

How are you planning to make your Valentine's Day memorable?  

XOXO, 
Anna

  1. gorgeous flower arrangement! I had to visit the site, and unfortunately, they don't deliver to North Carolina, but I saw that they will be delivering to more cities soon! Fingers crossed, NC is included, because you're right such a special company!! Love that cute little game! Hope y'all have a great Valentine's!
