Boutonnieres & Corsages for Prom

A senior prom is a major event in the life of a high school student. Graduation ceremonies are celebratory and momentous. Mother's Day is the perfect time to show the most important woman in the world how important she is to you. There are many special occasions at this time of year which call for the beauty of fresh flowers - and Central Square Florist is the place in Cambridge and Boston for the freshest designs. Did You Know? The original corsages were created to ward off evil spirits and protect women from disease. Boutonnieres functioned the same way for men.

Corsages were worn less and less until they were considered a luxury item, and most often used as a gift when courting.  Read More about Boutonnieres & Corsages for Prom »

Desktop Designs for Administrative Professional’s Week

It has been said that behind every great leader is a great support system- people who know exactly what is going on, who know how to make things happen, and who keep all business operations running smoothly. In a professional setting, that support system is usually comprised of the administrative professionals - the incredible individuals that are the backbone of an office. Receptionists, secretaries, bookkeepers and administrative assistants all work diligently to provide a friendly, professional presentation to any business. Each year, we have the opportunity to thank these individuals for their hard work and dedication to their profession during Administrative Professionals Week! Celebrated at the end of April, this special observance is a chance to tell your right-hand man or woman how much you value their commitment to your team. Here at Central Square Florist, it’s our business to help you celebrate those who mean so much to your business! Read More about Desktop Designs for Administrative Professional’s Week »
