What To Write In Your Mother’s Day Card
At Freddie’s Flowers, we know that showing someone that you care isn’t just about sending a beautiful gift. Sometimes, the right combination of flowers and words can be the perfect Mother’s Day gift, communicating love, appreciation, and everything in between.
Perfecting this combination, however, isn't always easy. What is the best message for a Mother's Day card, and how do you find the right flowers to complement your words? This year, send Mother’s Day wishes that really mean something with the help of Freddie’s Flowers.
How Flowers and Mother’s Day Cards Work Together
Before we dive into what to write in your Mother’s Day card, let’s talk about why flowers make all the difference. When you combine a handwritten card with a bouquet of gorgeous flowers, the personal touch of the card and the visual beauty of the flowers combine to reflect a deeper sense of appreciation.
When the right type of flower is combined with a Mother’s Day message, their meanings magnify. The message becomes more potent alongside the colour and fragrance of the flowers, and the flowers look even better with such a special sentiment behind them.
At Freddie’s Flowers, we make it easy to order flowers that look as amazing as the quality of your words. Whether you’re expressing love, gratitude, admiration, or joy, our displays are a stress-free addition to a heartfelt Mother’s Day card.
Roses & Messages of Love
The love between a mother and her children is powerful, and Mother’s Day is the perfect time to write a message that expresses this emotion. If you’re looking for what to say instead of just 'Happy Mother's Day’, as well as the perfect flower to magnify your love, we’ve got just the combination you're looking for.
Let’s focus on the flower first, and what better option is there for expressing the power of love than roses? Whether you want to express passion with red roses, admiration with pink roses, or sincerity with peach roses, these flowers are the ideal companion for your Mother’s Day messages of love.
Now that you’ve picked the flowers, all you need are some short mothers' love quotes to go with them. If you’re looking for inspiration, here are some ideas to get you started:
- “I’m so lucky to call you my mum!”
- “Thank you for everything you do for me.”
- “I don’t know where I’d be without you.”
- “Thank you for always being there – whenever, wherever.”
- “You’re the best mum in the world – I lucked out!”
- “Thinking of you today, and every day!”
Yellow Flowers & Jokes for Joy
For many, Mother’s Day can be an opportunity to express how happy the motherly figures in their lives make them. Joy and laughter are the gifts that mothers and their children exchange on a daily basis, so sometimes, the perfect Mother’s Day card message can be one that makes them laugh out loud!
When it comes to finding a flower that resonates with humour and playfulness, it helps to think in terms of colour, and there are few better shades than yellow! Whether it’s roses, lilies, daffodils, tulips, or another flower, yellow flowers have represented joy and happiness for centuries, and that makes them the ideal complementary piece to go with a funny Mother’s Day message.
What is a pun for Mother's Day? How can you make a card funny in just one line? Let yourself get silly with the help of these one-liners:
- “You’re the best mum I’ve got.”
- “Best mum, from a list of one.”
- “You’re not too bad, I guess.”
- “I love you almost as much as I love your roast potatoes.”
- “To my favourite mum, from your favourite kid.”
Lilies & Showing Appreciation for Special Grandmothers
Grandmothers can play as much of a role in our lives as mothers, so when it comes to celebrating the motherly figures in our lives, they deserve their moment to shine. We can think of no better flower for this than lilies.
Symbolic of admiration, these flowers will express the love and appreciation you want to express for the guidance, wisdom, and care your grandmother has provided you with over the years. With additional connotations of femininity and passion, lilies are also perfect for honouring the matriarch of your extended family.
Not sure what to write in a Mother’s Day card for your Grandma/Nan? Show your appreciation with a few of these card message ideas:
- “Thank you for your love and wisdom.”
- “You are my guiding light.”
- “I love you more than a cup of tea.”
- “My day is always better with you in it.”
- “Aged like a fine wine, and just as sweet.”
Tulips & Every Kind of Motherly Figure
Finally, we come to the motherly figures we love, respect, and appreciate that aren’t part of the conventional family. Mothers-in-law, friends, coworkers – all of these people can play a special part in our lives, so choosing the right flower is everything.
Here, we think you can’t go wrong with tulips. With associations of unconditional love, rebirth, and charity, they represent a powerful love and adoration that comes from commitment to caring for one another.
When it comes to card messages for mothers-in-Law, friends, and coworkers, here are some ideas to get you started:
- “Thank you for stepping up.”
- “When days are dark, you make things bright again.”
- “I’m so grateful that you came into my life.”
