Honoring Moms You Love with the Gift of Flowers

We send flowers to moms on the anniversary of her loss, or, on what would have been her due date. Those are dates a mother never forgets, but when they come around, her initial support system (if she had any) has faded or unintentionally forgotten. Remembering these dates mean the world to a mom. Not sure of her due date? If you know how far along she was, simply count out to 40 weeks and get as close as you can.

When our founder Chelsey received a bouquet of flowers in 2017 from an anonymous sender (the gesture that gave her the idea for Evermore Blooms), there was a moment that she legitimately felt, “Did these come from Jesus?!” Eventually, she found out the sender, and she was shocked to realize it was not a close friend or family member, but a casual acquaintance. We hope to recreate that feeling for moms, and we recognize that it can sometimes feel awkward to send flowers to someone you may not be super close with, like a coworker or cousin. We believe ANYONE can care for a mother, no matter how well you know her. By delivering the flowers anonymously, we remove any potential barrier of awkwardness, ensuring moms feel loved and cared for on her most difficult days.

Yes. Every bouquet has a card with a special message for the mom. It says: While nothing can take away the pain of losing a baby to miscarriage, we hope these flowers bring you comfort and assurance that your baby is remembered and so very loved. You’ll find one wooden flower to keep as a lasting reminder of the love you have for your baby, and the love God has for you. Praying for you today as you mourn what could have been.

We have bouquet cards with adjusted verbiage to acknowledge the loss of multiples, and we will include a wooden flower for each baby lost. When you fill out the request form, there is a section for you to indicate how many babies were lost in a single miscarriage. If the mother has had multiple miscarriages, those would be considered separate bouquet deliveries. Please note our policy for multiple bouquet deliveries below.

We partner with local florists to deliver bouquets. Upon receiving a request, we access our growing database of Florist Partners or seek out new ones to coordinate the delivery. Many of our florists choose to provide bouquets at cost, donate their design time, or waive delivery fees.

We require at least 10 business days notice for local deliveries (Sioux Falls, SD and surrounding areas within 20 minutes), and at least 30 business days notice for deliveries outside of our local area.

The suggested donation to send a bouquet to one mother is $40 for Sioux Falls, SD and surrounding areas, and $75 for all other locations. Thanks to donations and sales from our store, it is not required to cover the cost of the bouquet, but it is always appreciated.

Evermore Blooms bouquets are not just flowers. In every bouquet we send, we include one wooden flower that is hand-painted by a local artist. This bloom will not wither away, but rather, will serve as a lasting reminder of the love the mother has for her baby, and the love God has for her. Additionally, there is a team of people praying over the mom on the day she receives her flowers, and a few weeks after the flowers are delivered, we send a follow up letter inviting the mother to our private support community.

We believe every baby lost to miscarriage matters, and it’s our honor to help remember each of them. While not required, we do ask that a donation be made to cover the cost of any additional bouquets sent to the same mother.

Our bouquets are intended to create a special, unforgettable moment, and that intention could be diluted if multiple deliveries are made year after year. Evermore bouquets are a great first step to care for a mom, but we encourage you to be intentional and seek other ways to care for the mom as years go by. With that said however, if you believe an Evermore bouquet is still the best way to care for a mom you love, we simply ask that you make a donation to cover the cost of additional deliveries made to the same mother.

Our heart aches for all loss moms, however our mission is to care specifically for mothers who’ve experienced a loss prior to 20 weeks gestation. If you are a full-term loss mom, or someone caring for a mom of a full-term loss, The Morning and The Oaklyn Foundation are incredible resources.
