Flower Bouquet Delivery Companies

[ERICSMUM]

Can anyone recommend a company please, preferably by personal experience ?

For my niece and her partner for the birth of their little girl this week.

I’ve heard good and not so good reports of Next and Marks & Spencer flowers. Google gives me lots of results but I’ve no idea if they’re good.

Thanks as always

Bloom & wild, I received several bouquets recently including local companies and m&s. They were all beautiful but the Blood & Wild one lasted 4 weeks! There are new customer discount codes available too

I like Bloom and Wild or The Real Flower Company.
That gives you 2 different budgets too.
Bloom and Wild look faily uninspiring for a few days but then look lovely and are very reasonably priced.
The Real Flower Company are my favourite but more expensive.
The fragrance is incredible and the roses are just beautiful. Nothing like any of the other country-wide suppliers. Plus they started in a tiny shop in our little town so we like to support them

Personally I Google florist near to where you are sending them and then look at reviews. If there is a good one I'll use them, local florist I find are so much better than the bigger companies.

I've used bloom and wild a couple times and they've both been really nice.

These are my Bloom & Wild flowers after 4 weeks (first time posting a picture so hopefully will work!)

This is exactly what I do. You generally get much better for value using a local florist and you also get the satisfaction of knowing you're helping a small business!

I do agree as long as they don’t just offer an Interflora selection which are IMO generally naff.
Around here, all the really good independents are so inundated with weddings and events that they can now just work from home, avoid paying rent and rates and sadly don’t have time to make bouquets any more!

Oh really, that is a shame. We're lucky to have some great florists round here that make incredible bouquets at a fraction of the costs of the bigger companies. I hadn't realised that they were now a rarity.

Same here, we have fantastic florists locally, lots to choose from.
When sending further afield I ring their local florist and tell them the types of flowers I would like including so not getting a generic bouquet.
