Do You Want to Make Your Child’s Dance Recital Special?

It’s your child’s first dance recital!! It’s hard to decide who will be more excited – you, or your child? You Imagine her dancing in her cute, colorful costume before an audience. Her recital is a rite of passage and a special memory for you. 

But how do you let your child know how proud of her you are? How do you show her how special she is?  Parents get confused about what to do to celebrate their little performer. Nothing is more appropriate than giving her a bouquet of beautiful flowers. Kids love getting flowers after a dance recital. It makes them feel like a real ballerina.


The natural beauty of flowers attracts us all – even our kids - they feel special and appreciated when they are presented with flowers after their dance recital. Receiving a beautiful bouquet of flowers after a recital or performance has been a tradition for centuries.  The most difficult job is choosing the right bouquet for your child.

Roses are the most traditional flowers, gifted performers. A single rose bouquet is perfect for a little dancer, while a 6 or 12 stem rose bouquet is appropriate for your older dancer. Roses symbolize love, affection, and admiration – making them the classic choice for dance recital bouquets.

Carnation bouquets are also popular –, especially with younger dancers. Carnations come in a wide variety of colors, are very hardy, and last a long time in a vase next to your little dancers’ bed – a great reminder of the night they were the star!

Mixed bouquets of bright flowers are also a wonderful option for dancers of any age.  Mixed flowers bouquets are usually quite showy (like your dancer) and can provide a lot of “bang for the buck”. 

Most dance studios sell recital bouquets as a convenience to parents (one less place to have to run to before the big day) and as a way of fundraising for their school. 

Purchasing recital bouquets from your dance studio often help defray the costs of lessons, provides scholarship funding for students, reduces costume costs or assists in paying for competitions.  Buying your recital bouquet from your studio is a great way to purchase the right bouquet for your little star AND help your studio at the same time.  

Dance studios usually purchase their recital bouquets from online florists – so they are sure to get quality, farm fresh bouquets. Make your child’s dance recital memorable one, give them a big hug and reward them with a beautiful bouquet of flowers – and make things easier for you – order your recital bouquets directly from your dance studio.  Everyone wins!
