Carnival Men , Make your wives happy

[overthehillcruiser]

Just a tip if you are into this sort of thing. For 14 cruises I have always sent my wife a rose or roses to our table on formal night. This was from the Magic last week from Cherry on Top for a whopping price of $8.75..works pretty good..;)

My DH always sends a bouquet of flowers to our room for the week. I love it!

[pungo3]

You are a very smart man! We women do love flowers.:D

My DH bought me a bottle of Dom Perignon last week on our cruise. That made me happy!

It's very sweet of you to share your idea.

I suppose I am quite lucky as I often get flowers "just because" and not just for special events.

Flowers are lovely at any time!!

now to open up some questions about this...you said always sent....did you buy it while on-board and tell your table number, and they deliver it? what about YTD will they still deliver it... what would be the best way for that?

 

and I do like this idea...and Ithink it might get me some well.......let say kisses :cool:;)

[overthehillcruiser]

Always bought onboard , we had YTD most cruises and they know where you are sitting as you give your cabin # to the hostess at the entrance to the dining room. I tell the florist the aprox time we will be seated and they bring it to the table.If you are at regular seating, no problem either.

Your husband is one smooth dude. :cool:

 

My wife claims flowers are a waste of money, but she always smiles when I bring them home. ;)

That's very sweet and a great idea. Never thought they would do just 1 or 2 roses!! I really like that. My Hubby brings me flowers all the time and it means so much!!

 

Hmmm.. I wonder what he would say if I had it delivered to me!! He would know. :D After 40+ years and I always do all the ordering for everyone's birthdays, etc..

 

Thanks for the idea!!

OK...don't hurt me, but I must be the exception to the whole female & roses/flowers thing. They just aren't my style. That's not to say it isn't "sweet", just not for me.

 

Now if you want me to be happy....send me some real (not lab created) emeralds :p

[jaxcruiser23]

Awwww that is very sweet,I wish my DH would do something like that for me. Or even a surprise in our stateroom when we get on the cruise.

*LOL*

 

 

Don't feel bad . My DW is the same way. Growing up when her father sent her mother flowers it usually meant he had done something really wrong or she was about to find out he had (and he did A LOT)

 

 

Plus she thinks they are a huge waste of money.

 

You two would get along great....give her jewelry (or a really expensive purse ) and she is very happy.

[KPfromCT]

I agree 100% that flowers are the BIGGEST waste of money:D:D

However, there are women that like them......

Maybe it's because I don't have a green thumb:eek::eek:

But give me a Tanzanite ring, or diamond, and I am a happy camper:D

My wife also claims flowers are a waste of money, but she loves them for Valentines and her birthday. Other then those days, she is adament about not getting flowers.

[Jenny in TX]

Your wife is very lucky....what a wonderful gesture!! I'm sure she enjoyed having it in the room to enjoy all week.

 

I'm am going to show this thread to my DH.

I get my wife flowers for most special occassions and she seems to appreciate them and the fact I actually remembered the occassion. :D

Over the years I have learned not give her anything she would wear ( clothes, jewelery, purse, etc ) without her specifically picking the item out. It may not be a surprise when she gets the gift but at least she will wear it instead of hiding it deep in the closet hoping I don't notice it was "not her style". :rolleyes:

[sandinmyshoes]

Thanks for the fun idea! And budget minded too. Who can say flowers are a waste of money when they cost less than $10 and make a nice addition to someone's cruise vacation (that likes roses)? I used to be a florist and understand the crazy markup on flowers, but if it brings a smile to someone's face isn't that priceless? Making someone else feel special is what life is all about!

A few years back we were cruising on my wifes birthday. So, trying to be a good hubby, I ordered the decorations for our cabin, flowers and a fruit basket. When we went to our cabin, I let her open the door and enter first so I could see her reaction..... nothing...nada... I stood there for a minute and then asked if she noticed anything...She looks at me and say's "what?"

I then pointed out all the things....she got a little red faced and whispered "sorry"... I just laughed. Later we used our cabin for a cabin crawl and everyone who walked in mentioned the flowers and decorations. I would just look at her and smile.

On our next cruise after that we renewed our wedding vows. 47 years and counting.

I did this for my Wife with our friends from England, we started in the Late dining room with a birthday cake from our friends, and everyone singing Happy Birthday, Later as we were getting ready to go to show, going back to room for wraps for the ladies, and to put the rest of cake in room, I told my wife to get room card out of my pocket to open door, We were all talking and my Wife and Jane were deciding what that wanted to wear, my Wife walked all the way into room till her head got hung up in decorations, and then she screamed she was so happy....Made a very unforgetable Cruise for Her....
