Flowers or not?

[Bonniegirlie]

Our friend lost her husband earlier this year and their wedding anniversary is approaching. Would it be appropriate for us to send her some flowers on the day? We were at their wedding and he was our friend too. But I don't want to do the wrong thing and upset her more. Thanks

I think it's a nice thing to do.

I agree, it'd be a nice thing to do, very thoughtful.

I'd send a lovely colourful arrangement, nothing that suggests a sympathy vibe, something bright and cheerful.

I think I'd include a card that said 'Thinking of you' or something like that, but not actually draw attention to the anniversary. She'll know the significance of the date.

I appreciated a card on the day, I am not sure how I would've felt about flowers. Our anniversary was a couple of months after he died and I was still very much in the 'flowers remind me of losing him' stage but I also found flowers when he died hard too because I wasn't in the headspace to look after them then they died too.
