Oh, Boy! Missed Anniversary or Birthday

One Dozen “I Am Soooo Sorry” Red Roses

Ohhh… ouch.

You missed the date.

It happens. But as Jeeves the Aggieland Concierge would gently point out, this is not the moment to arrive home with grocery-store flowers and a hopeful expression.

You, sir, have entered go big or go home territory.  And depending upon exactly what you forgot, Jeeves advises that going home may not currently be your strongest option.

A breathtaking dozen red roses delivers your apology in the most classic, time-tested language of romance. No excuses. No lengthy explanations. And definitely no opening with, “In my defense…”

Jeeves strongly recommends letting the flowers do the talking. They have a considerably better chance than you do.

Pair them with rich, indulgent chocolates and you’ve officially entered serious peace-offering territory.

Pro Tip from Jeeves: If she works outside the home, send the roses to her office. Her co-workers probably already know you forgot. A grand romantic gesture delivered in front of witnesses can be remarkably helpful to your case.

Flowers say you’re sorry, but chocolate suggests you have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

Upgrade with local Wiseman House Toffee or luxurious Neuhaus Glamor Truffles for a little additional insurance.

And one final word of wisdom from Jeeves:

The longer you’ve “known the date,” the more roses you may want to consider.

Forgot yesterday? A dozen may do nicely.

Forgot something she’s been mentioning for three weeks? Two dozen deserves serious consideration or more.

Actually said, “Wait… was that today?”

Sir. ~ Jeeves recommends the chocolates as well. ????

Vase and bow style may vary slightly.

At Aggieland Flowers & Chocolates, we’ve been helping the romantically successful—and occasionally the romantically endangered—send beautiful flowers throughout College Station and Bryan, Texas since 1947.

Jeeves will provide the roses. What happens after delivery is between you, her…and perhaps a higher power.
