Flowers Plus One of These Luxuries = The Perfect Gift


Flowers are one of the greatest gifts to give someone. People of all ages love them, and they are an excellent gift for every occasion. Beautiful, vibrant, fragrant, and symbolic…. flowers are flawless! And if you plan to include another gift to make this present even more special, your loved one will feel all the love, care, thoughtfulness, and good vibes. That’s how you create a moment they’ll never forget. At VanderSalm’s Flowershop, the top florist in Kalamazoo, we’ve handpicked the best flower-and-gift pairings for all your loved ones, from friends and family to romantic partners. Let’s make their next special occasion a moment they’ll cherish forever!

Red Roses and Gourmet Chocolate

There’s something effortlessly romantic about red roses and chocolate on Valentine’s Day. The roses, with their vibrant red hue and soft, lush petals, carry the timeless energy of passion and love. Gourmet chocolate brings warmth and indulgence, its rich flavors complementing the elegance of the roses. Together, they create a gift that feels thoughtful and genuine, perfect for setting the tone for a day filled with love and appreciation.

Pink Roses and Prosecco

Pairing pink roses with Prosecco is like giving a hug wrapped in celebration. The roses, with their dreamy blush petals, speak the language of gratitude and admiration—soft yet deeply heartfelt. Add in Prosecco’s lively fizz, and you’ve got a gift that’s equal parts cozy and festive. This duo is a beautiful way to show someone just how much warmth and joy they bring into your world—whether it’s your amazing Mom or the Grandmom who’s always been your biggest cheerleader.

Bird of Paradise and an IPA

Birds of paradise bring a splash of adventure to any celebration, making them a perfect fit for Dad. Their bold, exotic aesthetic symbolizes freedom and joy—just like the way dads encourage us to spread our wings and embrace life’s journey. Pair them with a crisp IPA for a down-to-earth vibe or a rich Cabernet Sauvignon for a touch of elegance. This gift pair creates a vibrant yet heartfelt tribute to the strong, supportive, and dynamic man you’re raising a glass to.

Orchids and a Savory Gift Basket

For the grandparents who are our anchors and storytellers, purple orchids make a stunning statement. Their royal tones capture the admiration and respect we feel, while their timeless beauty reflects the everlasting love grandparents bring to our lives. Pair these elegant blooms with a gourmet basket of savory delights—think cheeses, crackers, and nuts—for a gift that feels warm, comforting, and effortlessly sophisticated. It’s the perfect way to say, “You’re loved, cherished, and absolutely priceless.”

Yellow Lilies and Balloons

Yellow lilies radiate cheer and warmth, making them a lovely way to express gratitude to the amazing people in your life—friends, neighbors, colleagues, and more. Pair them with gladiolus for a touch of strength and respect, and the bouquet takes on even more meaning. Toss in some colorful balloons, and suddenly, it’s a full-on celebration! This combo is the perfect way to say, “Thanks for everything you do—today is all about you!”

At VanderSalm’s Flowershop, we believe that the magic of a gift lies in the thoughtful details. By pairing gorgeous blooms with just the right finishing touch, you can create a heartfelt gesture that’s as special as the person you’re honoring. Because for us, it’s all about helping you celebrate love and connection in the most meaningful way.
