Roses have had meaning since the dawn of times. They symbolize beauty, youth, purity, hope, and of course are the ultimate symbol of love. Since the winter, I’ve been haunted by roses – I’ve incorporated them in my wardrobe, decorated my hair and home with them, and attempted to concoct the perfect rose perfume. For The Love Of Roses picnic is my chance to share my affection for these gentle yet powerful flowers with you, and celebrate my 29th birthday.
It’s an open invitation and anyone is free to come (please bring your own blanket). We will have cupcakes, rose-water lemonade, and – if last year was any indication – lots of wonderful people. Dress code is romantic floral; rose-related presents encouraged and always welcome! We hope to see you there!
Please RSVP in comments so we know how many cupcakes to bring. :)
Oh! If you’re birthday’s on the 26, it’s the same day as mine :) Now if only Toronto and New York were closer together.
I will definitely be coming:)
oo I think I’ll probably be able to come!! and If it’s floral themed, I have a perfect dress in my closet! (it doesnt have roses on it or anything, just bright flowers, its so pretty and I havent gotten to wear it yet!) and I have a nice present in mind =)
