Welcome to the Globalrose Blog

A 17-year-old from Utah spent hundreds of dollars and months of planning to ensure a happy Valentine’s Day for all the girls at his high school.

Hayden Godfrey of Smithfield, Utah, bought 900 carnations to distribute to every girl at Sky View High School, a purchase that set him back $450.

“I firmly believe no girl should feel excluded on Valentine’s day,” Godfrey told Mashable in an interview. “If it was up to me, Valentine’s wouldn’t be a day about couples, but a day about loving your fellow human beings.”

Godfrey’s super suave move went viral after the teen shared pictures of the flowers on hisFacebook.

Since then, he’s been receiving “tons” of messages from girls who’ve thanked him for the Valentine’s gift.

The carnations were purchased from GlobalRose.com, a wholesaler that sells and delivers bundles of flowers. The site advertises varying prices for carnations depending on stem length and color, but Godfrey chose a mixed assortment and told Mashable he paid $.50 per carnation.

The high school senior’s classmates were quick to commend his generous actions.

“I remember you talking about this back in middle school, I’m glad you followed through!,” wrote one commenter on his Facebook. “Well done my friend!”

Vice Principal Kurt Hanks told Mashable the flowers were distributed Thursday (the school is closed on Friday, the closest weekday to Valentine’s Day, due to administrative meetings) with the help of several volunteers.

“Hayden’s a great young man. It was a really nice effort,” Hanks said. “He did it purely out of the goodness of his heart, and he raised all the money himself working part-time.”

Hanks added that Godfrey had previously given out flowers on a smaller scale for Valentine’s Day, but never to the entire female student body.

“He believes girls deserve a flower every Valentine’s Day,” Hanks said. “For whatever reason, he’s got really strong feelings about it.”

As for Godfrey’s Valentine’s plans, he will be spending the day with his girlfriend of six months, Lilyan Sharp, who approved of her boyfriend’s bold move. Together they’ll attend a Great Big World concert, which Sharp says is one of their favorite bands.

“He’s always very sweet,” she wrote in a message toMashable.

Yes, very sweet indeed.

Wherever you decide to say your vows, aisle decor is important and is sometimes overlooked in the excitement of the rest of the planning. Is aisle decor really necessary you may ask? Aisle decor is a beautiful addition to your wedding and will dress up what might be an otherwise austere chapel or sanctuary. The purpose of beautiful aisle decor is not to detract from the bride, but to draw the eye to the front of the venue where it all takes place. Honestly, you didn’t spend all that time and money on that gorgeous dress for no one to look at it, did you?

Aisle decor can be something you attach to the end of the pews if you’re in a church, or to the last chair at the end of each row if you are elsewhere. Inexpensive pew clips can be purchased to slip over chair backs or pews without causing damage to the surface or marring it with sticky tape. The clips can then be used to hold everything from swags of tulle to bouquets of flowers like those you can create from the beautiful flowers at Globalrose like the Mini Calla Lilies Assorted Colors collection. Mini Calla Lilies are energetic and attention-grabbing blooms that will make a statement in their simplicity. Dramatic and playful, they are perfectly sized for aisle flower bouquets. Available in different colors, the box contains 240 stems that are 16″ to 18″ long. Combine them with ribbons and Gypsophila Baby’s Breath and your aisle will lead their eye straight to you.
