Pro Flowers?

[Kellydelly]

Thanks everyone for your replies!
I am still deciding, I have a call into one of their friends to get a local florist number. So I guess I'll either do that or Pro Flowers.

This is the smart thing to do!

Hi. I own a florist and I can tell you the BEST way to order flowers is to call the florist in the town you wish to deliver to directly yourself. There are many advantages to this, first you will be speaking directly with the people who will be arranging your flowers and you will find out what the have the best of instock etc.. Second you will get more for your $ than having to pay HUGE relay fees by using one of the 1-800 or online sites.
You can look online to find a florist in the town, if you are having trouble finding one PM me and I will look up a florist in the town for you and get you the phone #.

Thanks for the offer! I got the name of a florist in their town and called them. They were awesome to deal with, I told them what I wanted and they said not to worry they could do it. So here's hoping it looks as good as they say it will.

I'm seriously bummed about Hallmark.com. I like 1800flowers a lot. I had a poor experience with them once (they sent the wrong thing) and they were fabulous in fixing it, which IMO is the sign of good customer service.

Agreed! Calling the local florist is usually best. I don't need any big guy taking a cut out of my arrangement. Most flower shops are locally owned and if you discuss with the local what you are looking for you generally get more for your money.

Floral business 21 years....and I TOTALLY agree! Use your local florist and tell them you will be there to look at what they sent, and tell them you want it really fresh.
