Is it OK to have mothers day flowers delivered on Saturday?

I want to get my girlfriend%26#039;s mother flowers for mothers day, and I was just wondering if it is poor ettiquette to have them delivered the Saturday before. I know they have big plans all day on Sunday so I wanted to be sure she got them on time, and also web site florists say they can%26#039;t guarantee delivery on that date.

Most Mother%26#039;s Day flowers are delivered the Friday or Saturday before. Mom won%26#039;t care- she will be very happy to be remembered. Follow up with a phone call or visit on Sunday.
Reply:From what I have heard, most flowers will be delivered on Saturday, anyway. At least, that is custom here in FL.





I think it is a beautiful idea of yours, to think of your girl-friends mother! And my bet is, she want even waste a thought about, that it is one day early.





However, if you happen to see her in person on Mother%26#039;s Day, do give the flowers to her in person.
Reply:It is absoltuely okay to have flowers delivered the Saturday before. Flowers for Mother%26#039;s Day, even Valentines Day are delivered quite a few days early prior to the actual day. The fact you recognize the day is thoughtful, not the day it comes.
Reply:Yes, of course! Save on the shipping charges, and there are many delivery services that don%26#039;t deliver anything on Sundays - I%26#039;m having my mom%26#039;s stuff delivered today!
Reply:Absolutely not.





Etiquette doesn%26#039;t work that way.





All gifts are unexpected.





An early gift is always a welcome surprise.
Reply:Flowers or gifts can be delivered anytime up to the actual celebration just not after.
Reply:It%26#039;s fine. Most florists don%26#039;t deliver on Sunday anyway
Reply:no problem at all. as you said you wanted to make sure she got them. your gf%26#039;s mother will appreciate the gesture.
Reply:Sure, she can enjoy them for an extra day on the weekend.
