Best-case scenario: You’ve already bought a small gift for Mom, but you’re still searching for the perfect finishing touch to tie it all together. Worst case? Mother’s Day completely slipped your mind, and you desperately need a gift—fast. Shockingly, it’s not too late to have a great gift delivered to your front door.
Send your long-distance mom flowers, a fully-arranged charcuterie board, or decadent chocolate-covered strawberries to make her day. If you’re shopping for your wife, DoorDash her flowers or a sweet treat from the family (this way you don’t have to run out on Sunday). You can even have luxury beauty products delivered from local retail stores—think Lush bath bombs, so she can take a relaxing bath or fancy skincare from Sephora that’ll offer a moment of self-care.
Find a bouquet from a local florist or plant shop, and DoorDash will deliver it the same day. The brand will give you an estimated wait time, which could be as early as 30 minutes depending on where you live.
Technically Boarderie offers overnight delivery, but that means you could order this fully-arranged charcuterie board today and have it tomorrow morning. You’ll get 18 artisan cheeses, meats, dried fruits, nuts, chocolates, and olives, plus two packs of crackers. I’ve tried the brand, and I couldn’t believe how many goodies they packed on the board.
It’s not too late to spoil her, whether you order spa essentials (like bath bombs from Lush) or splurge-worthy products from her favorite brands, like Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lipstick or PHLUR perfume. If you live near a Sephora, Ulta, or Target, DoorDash makes it easy to have luxury beauty delivered to your door within the hour.
It’s the small things that matter most on Mother’s Day. Kick off her morning with her an iced latte and pastry from her favorite coffee shop, then end her evening with an assortment of cupcakes from her a local bakery. If Mom is your wife, you don’t have to leave the house, so you can be on kid duty the entire time.
Depending on your location, Urban Stems offers a number of beautiful bouquets that’ll arrive same day. If you’re worried, you can buy her a subscription instead—she can choose her first bouquet and enjoy fresh florals every week, biweekly, or every four.
Send your long-distance mama a dozen (or two) of chocolate-covered strawberries. There’s also a fancy version decorated with crunchy bits of toffee, chocolate chips, and drizzle.
