The Bad

  • Prices
  • Wedding Items

Prices

Most of their prices for floral arrangements are slightly higher than some of their competitor's prices. This is mainly figured out by comparing rose bouquet prices to competitor's rose bouquets.

Wedding Items

Their selection of wedding arrangements and items (corsages, boutonnieres, hand held bouquets, silk arrangements, dried arrangements, etc.) is very limited. They also do not do customized floral arrangements.

Although they do not do customizable floral arrangements, with over 5,000 floral arrangements to choose from, consumers are guaranteed to find the exact floral arrangement they had in mind. They also have a 7-day guarantee and excellent 24/7 customer service. These positive points make the higher prices worth it. We recommend Flower.com for your flower delivery needs.

Just too expensive for what you get. I tried them once. The bouquets were not worth the price.
