Flower are a key aspect of Valentine’s Day… and anniversaries… and rock icons’ funerals? When people look back on Elvis’s funeral, they often recall the massive amounts of flowers. But, would you believe that for FTD, one of the leading flower delivery services, the day of Elvis’s funeral set the record for the day with the most flower deliveries? FTD alone delivered 3,116 flower arrangements for the August 18, 1977 funeral.
