Stop panicking: Thank you gift inspiration

18 August 2021
Gin Botanicls - Court Florist Christchurch

There are occasions in life when your friends, family or colleagues go the extra mile for you, helping you out beyond your expectations, so sometimes a verbal thank you does not feel adequate to show your appreciation. When words don’t seem enough, a thoughtful thank you gift rubber stamps your gratitude.


Whether your neighbour has fed the cats while you’ve been away for the weekend, or your sales team have smashed their targets, a thank you gift demonstrates you haven’t taken their actions for granted. Besides, the feel-good factor by giving is just as powerful as receiving – yes, a thank you gift is the gift that just keeps on giving!


Court Florist have been helping clients to express gratitude through our flower delivery Christchurch service since 1937, but we now offer a variety of ways to say thank you. Whatever you wish to show gratitude for, we have a gift to say thank you in just the right way.



The best thank you gift for a group

Fruit Basket - Court Florist Christchurch

Have your team excelled in these tough times? Has your Mum been made to feel so welcome by her neighbours in her retirement village? If you are buying gifts for a number of people, one group present such as a fruit basket or gift hamper is a luxuriously lovely choice.



The best thank you gift for couples

Moet - Court Florist Christchurch

On any day of the week a bottle of Moët is a classy thank you gift, and Court Florist take it to the next level by embellishing the bottle with a delight of fresh flowers. Is there a better way to say thank you to a couple who have been supportive to you? 



The best thank you gift for your Mother

Treat Her Gift - Court Florist Christchurch

What are the best gifts for her? Christchurch’s Court Florist have created this delightful ‘Treat Her’ gift combination for your Mum – a posy of beautiful flowers, a scented candle and luxurious hand cream. It’s thoughtful, visual, and gloriously fragrant. 



The best thank you gift for your Father

Whiskey and More - Court Florist Christchurch

Why is it so hard to buy a gift your Dad? Because typically he has everything he needs. However, Court Florist’s whiskey hamper is always a well-received gift and is filled with goodies we know he’ll enjoy - Jameson Irish whiskey, Surmanti body wash and muscle spray, and De Spa chocolates he need not be obliged to share. 



The best thank you gift for your friend

Gin Botanicals Gift Basket - Court Florist Christchurch

No matter how tricky life gets, there is usually one friend to help you navigate back to safe shores, and while you would reciprocate in a heartbeat, it is always humbling. To celebrate your friendship and express your absolute gratitude, a thank you gift for your best friend will be appreciated, especially Court Florist’s Gin Botanicals Basket! A stunning bouquet of fresh flowers, New Zealand’s best botanical Lighthouse Gin and East Imperial tonic – the ideal ingredients for a great evening with friends.


The Court Florist's Christchurch team love hearing the stories why our clients are saying thank you – there are some incredibly kind people in our community who make such a difference to people’s lives. If you would like to send a thank you gift and wish to create a custom basket or hamper from our collections, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are always happy to help.
