International Women's Day is a worldwide observance of the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women everywhere. Recognized since in the early 1900's, the initiative believes that no single institution, corporation, charity, or government is solely responsible for the movement. Instead, they believe that all like-minded people should stand shoulder-to-shoulder to fight for justice and equality for women, no matter where they live. International Women's Day inspires unity, promotes reflection, supports advocacy and encourages action. A Worldwide Social Gathering: On March 8, men and women alike will be involved events that take place both locally and globally. The organizers of the celebration urge everyone to tell the world about their support by tagging social media posts with #BeBoldforChange. Read More about Women’s Day Celebrations Around the World »
According to the National Association of Bridal Consultants, February is National Wedding Month. While that designation makes sense in Sarasota - where we enjoy wedding ceremonies drenched in sunshine all year long - it may seem a bit confusing in colder climes. However, there are several reasons the month makes sense as one to celebrate weddings. After all, February offers us Valentine's Day, the reigning king of the romantic holiday. Here at Beneva Flowers, romance is in the air during February and all year-round! There will be 2.4 million weddings this year nationwide, and a great number of those couples got engaged on Valentine's Day. However, one of the main reasons February is known as National Wedding Month is that February 14th is a top choice for a wedding day as well. And although it only happens once every 4 years, February 29th of Leap Year is a wildly popular day for couples to tie the knot. Read More about February Celebrates National Wedding Month »
