Here in the United States, homecoming is an annual tradition. Between late September and early October, high schools, and colleges come together to welcome back alumni. Most homecomings are built around a pivotal event, usually a football game – and we know how important football is in Texas! However, other popular activities can include parades, pep rallies, parades, dances and the coronation of a Homecoming King or Queen. Homecoming flowers are usually ordered for two reasons – for those on the homecoming court, and for those attending a formal dance. From wristlet to boutonniere, Bice’s Florist has the beautiful formal flowers you’ll be looking for.
The Big Dance: Corsages or wristlets are usually purchased by someone close to the young lady – either her date or her parents. Wristlets can be arranged on a variety of wristlet bands that can range from purely functional to a piece of jewelry such as pearls or silver jewels.
For The Guys: Bice’s Florist has a great selection of unique flowers for those sharp-dressed men, like this rose and succulent combination. Whether headed to the dance or on the homecoming court, these trendy boutonnieres will make any lapel look elegant.
Homecoming Court: It is also customary to present each member of the court with a smaller bouquet of roses, with the Queen receiving the largest bouquet. Roses are a popular choice, but the bouquets can also match school colors to reflect your spirit. If your school is having an event that you need custom arrangements for, give us a call! We’ll take your school colors and turn them into the most beautiful homecoming flowers in town.
This year, think outside tradition! In addition to the customary flowers, how about surprising some special? If you are a returning alumni, bring a bouquet to your favorite teacher. A school spirit wristlet will look awesome on any girl at the big game, especially if her best friends have one too! Whatever your events, flowers make every occasion more special – and in Fort Worth, the place for all your homecoming and formal flowers needs is Bice’s Florist.
