Getting my girlfriend flowers?

My girlfriend and I had a rough patch this month. I love her more than absolutely anything but things were hard this month due to many factors. I had started a new job, she had moved into a new house, and we were just busier than we ever had been. We started bickering more and it just wasn't a fun time. Things have been going much better now and I just wanted to give her some flowers to let her know that I love and appreciate her and that she is the most important in my life. Her favorite flower are orchids. I found this gorgeous bouquet on teleflora and thought it was a perfect bouquet especially with the end of summer and the colors pop. What do you think?

DUDE!! ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ON FLOOOOOOOOOOWERS!!!??? I am a 33 yr old woman. Flowers are lovely but the last time my boyfriend bought me flowers for this much money...I *thought*...OMG that could have been the most AWESOME-EST massage ever and then I thanked him (for the thought between you and I) and thinking of me.

If you want to get her flowers that fine but tone it down like 4 notches. Im not saying get them from a gas station but get a small thing from a florist with orchids. HAND deliver them (it shows YOU care) if thats not possible have a friend deliver them and say that you would have rather it was you but you wanted to make sure they made it to the hands of the most important person with safely and your BFF was the man for the job and WITH the card include a gift certificate allowing something for her to pamper herself. She will feel oh so appreciated, loved, fabulous and that you are OH so smart for knowing her and for showing her you care. HONESTLY...not even lying.

Flowers and a gift certificate to her fav spa? If you dont know what that is then they have Spa Finder gift cards at Walgrees, CVS even Cumberland Farms that way the recipient chooses. Or to a book store cause she LOVES to read or perhaps something you know she has wanted for the house but will not purchase for herself. Is she cold all the time. Best down comforter ever. Favorite shoe store? Hand bags? Coach? Doone? Ever time she looks at the thing she is going to think of how much you cared.

Seriously the bouquet IS beautiful but $100 (min) could be spend on something so much better and you can STILL get flowers. $25 flowers from florist $75 on HER to pamper her? Ehhh? Think about it.

All else fails everyone ALWAYS loves this too. Big hit at the offices and equally impressive and probably less expensive.

Good luck either way.

Might she prefer a potted orchid that will last longer? Nice bouquet though, getting them delivered to her place of work always goes down well.

Good selection she should like it! :-)

I get my GF flowers quite often usually a selection of roses depending on the reason for them or a selection of other things (sorry dont know much about them I just go 2 of them 3 of them 5 of them....) if I want a change or for different reasons

The flower are absolutely beautiful. Do It. She's lucky to have you, you seem like a sweet boyfriend, I'm sure she would appreciate it.

Of course you stupid people hang on to the pointless traditions of flowers.
Whatever, keep the floral industry going.
Rate me down, I don't care.
I would rather you do so I can take count of the unintelligent f*ckwits who can't accept the truth.
