World flower industry counts down to 10-10-10 |
AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands, October 7, 2010: Just as 9-9-9 (September 9, 2009) was the most popular wedding date in the year 2009, 10-10-10 is proving to be the hottest date for a wedding this year.
According to Brides magazine, in the USA alone 31,050 couples will get married on 10-10-10. That is almost twice the number of weddings on any other day during the month, and 10 times as many on any Sunday.
Set to benefit from this phenomenon that occurs only twelve times every 1,000 years, are flower growers, flower wholesalers and retail florists along with hotels, whose ballroom schedules and honeymoon suite reservations should be hopping, as well as for airlines, whose passenger seats will be full of newly-married couples heading off to their honeymoon destinations. Even the chapels in Las Vegas are likely to be in high demand. Around the globe, couples want to tie the wedding knot on this magical date this year, if only for the practical reason that it would be really difficult to forget their future anniversaries.
