A local delivery fee starting at $7.50 will be added to each order, for each address. (For deliveries outside our local delivery area, this fee may vary.)

U.S. orders must be received before 12:00 p.m. in the recipient's time zone to assure same-day delivery. Orders received after that time will be delivered the following day.

We will do our best to accommodate deliveries at specific times of day, but we cannot guarantee it.

We are unable to make deliveries on Sundays (unless specific arrangements are made and may be subject to higher or additional fees)  Otherwise, deliveries requested on this day will be delivered the following business day.

Delivery of orders to rural route addresses or cemeteries cannot be guaranteed.  However, we always do our best to accomodate.

We will be happy to accept your international orders if you call our shop directly. We are unable to accept international orders over the Internet.  All international delivery requests need to be made 48 hours prior to desired delivery date.

We do our best to make all deliveries personally to the recipient, however, there are times that we may leave a delivery if no one is home to accept the delivery.  Packages will be left at front door of residence unless otherwise noted to leave at another location (ie garage, side door, covered porch, etc.)  We also take into consideration the weather conditions (wind, heat, cold, etc.) so if we deem it to be unsafe the delivery will come back to the store and we will leave a door tag as well as a voicemail or email message with the recipient letting them know a delivery was attempted.  As soon as we hear back from them we make arrangements to re-deliver.

Occasionally, substitutions may be necessary to create your bouquet due to the availability of certain flowers in various parts of the country. Care is taken to maintain the style, theme and color scheme of the arrangement, using flowers of equal value. Additionally, the substitution of certain keepsake items may be necessary due to increased demand, especially during major holidays. In single-flower arrangements, such as an all rose bouquet, or orchids, we will make every attempt to match the flower type, but may substitute with another color.
