Disappointed
September 17, 2024
Updated review

Order a large arrangment based on the style of flowers for a family funeral. When viewed at the funeral home the flowers were frail, wilted, unhealthly and the flower arrangements was to contain a 'BLUE' flower as in was within the name and flower arrangement purchase, there was no "BLUE' flower or any similar colour within the arrangement. Large arrangments should last at least 3 business days this was an embarrasement in what was received. I will not order and recommend this florist.

Hi Mirella D.,
This is your second review regarding the same order. If you are unhappy with the flower arrangement delivered, please call Blooms Today directly at 1-800-522-8707. Echovita is an obituary website, not a florist. Blooms Today is our partner who assigns each flower order to a local florist who is then responsible for preparing and delivering the arrangement. Thank you.

Hello
The flowers looked shriveled and frail, not what was pictured, where's the blue?

It was easy to find a lovely flower arrangement and to have it delivered to my cousin's funeral. There was a problem with the order which was corrected easily by phone the next day.

Hi Ann A.,
If you received a delivery confirmation already for your order and it was delivered too early, please call 1-800-522-8707. This phone number can also be found both on our website and on your receipt. The memorial trees have already been planted. You were sent a certificate from Agilla Pro, which may have been received in your spam. Thank you.

Beautiful Glowers
September 15, 2024

The process was so easy since they already have all the information of where to deliver and when the funeral was scheduled. Pictures of the flowers were sent to us by family and they looked exactly as they should have. I have had issues in the past with other companies- not looking like the pictures advertised. I was very pleasantly surprised! I would use this company again in the future!

Addition to previous comment

The extra charge for un ordered and undelivered candle has been credited. So overall, except for size of bouquet, I am happy with our order.

Flowers arrived on time!
September 14, 2024

It was very important to me that the flowers arrived at the service on time since I was unable to attend. The delivery time was perfect and I was told by family members that the flowers were beautiful!

I'd never heard of Echovita, but I took a risk. The plant was beautiful, and the recipient just loves it.

Not fulfilled
September 11, 2024

I placed my order in timely fashion from the funeral home website. I received a call from you all the morning of the service stating the flower order could not be fulfilled and asking for another address to send them to. I did not have one since this was held out of state so I cancelled the order. Disappointed I was unable to send my condolences that day. The order was refunded.

Delivery
September 10, 2024

Service was 11am to 1pm got email at 1:30 saying flowers were delivered. Since I'm in poor health I couldn't be at funeral service so I'm not sure if plant that I bought got there on time.

Hi Rachel Z.,
Sometimes it can even take 24 hours to receive your delivery confirmation email. The time the email is received is not when the order is delivered. The email itself should indicate the time the order was delivered. If the time of delivery is not indicated, please call 1-800-522-8707. If the order was delivered late, you will receive a refund. Thank you.

Selection good, easy to do on line but NO follow up email or text saying if the flowers were delivered. I still don't know if they were delivered to the funeral or not……
