Flowers for a Funeral
August 8, 2023

Ordered flowers for a funeral out of town. The flowers were awesome as I followed up with my brother to make sure they were what I ordered and were delivered on time. A very pleasant experience!

Funeral arrangements very late after the fact!
September 6, 2023
Updated review

Very disappointed with late delivery of 4 days.I reached out to support team and basically I was called a liar. "We've never had thus happen before" unquote so to be clear nearly a hundred dollars spent and there is apparently no concerns from support team. Horrible customer service from support representatives and piss poor company.

Hi Chester B.,
After reading your review, I can say that many of the statements you are making are completely false, so I will address this as best I can with proof of our communications. Firstly, you were never called a liar. You stated the arrangement was delivered 4 days late, which we said, has never happened before, which is true. Furthermore, the delivery confirmation received for your order was the date of the delivery that was scheduled for your order. After contacting Blooms Today, we recognized that the local florist stated the flowers were delivered a couple hours late, so Blooms Today said they'd contact the local florist to double check the time of delivery, then they'd contact you by phone and email within 24 hours and have the issue resolved. You then responded us by telling us to call the funeral home and ask them when the flowers were delivered, and we responded by informing you that we go by the information provided by the florist and that the florist is able to provide a name of the person at the funeral home who was given the flowers and/or where the flowers were placed, i.e. The flower room. You didn't respond to our email. For you to state, there was no concerns by our support team is incorrect. You stated multiple times that you were called a liar, that is also incorrect. You claimed we stopped all communications, that is also incorrect.
This morning I called Blooms Today to follow up with the issue and they advised me that they sent you an email regarding the delivery of your order, which was delivered 2 hours late, so we have processed a refund for your order. It can take 5-7 business days for the refund to be returned to you. Thank you.


Thx appreciate it

Very easy to work with.
August 6, 2023

This company was very easy to work with and no surprise charges. I like the email I received ensuring it was delivered. One suggestion that would be nice, is to receive a picture of the bouquet when it is delivered with the e-mail verification.

Disappointed

Disappointed with product and service. Received notice of substitution due to lack of flowers. When I saw end result at service, there was more container than flowers.

No flowers for a loved one that passed away.
September 3, 2023
Updated review

I ordered the flowers online. Was assured that they would be delivered. Next day I get an email requesting a new address to send the flowers. I thought that's the funeral home that they need to be delivered to. I called them they said none of the florists will deliver to that address. So I was given a refund promptly. Which was good. Still I needed those flowers there. I stopped by the florist in town beside the funeral home. Was told no one contacted them about an order. Wasn't a good experience. Some things you can't trust to an online order. I found out the bad way.
