A local delivery fee of $9.99 will be added to each order, for each address. (For deliveries outside our local delivery area, this fee may vary.)

In the U.S. and Canada, same-day delivery by a local florist is generally available Monday through Friday if your order is received before 12:00 noon in the recipient's timezone - excluding peak floral delivery periods. Otherwise, next-day delivery is the norm.

Orders for Saturday must be received by 1PM EST on Friday to guarantee Saturday delivery. Also, please note that Saturday delivery may not be available in certain areas, as some florists close early.

Except for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day, delivery service is usually NOT available on Sundays, since most florists are closed. Items requested for delivery on a Sunday may be delivered the day BEFORE or AFTER the date requested. If this is not acceptable, please specify in the comments that we should cancel the order if delivery on the requested date is not possible.

Delivery of orders to rural route addresses or cemeteries cannot be guaranteed. Flowers can not be delivered to PO boxes - we must have a valid street address. Delivery in some rural areas may not be possible, or may require an extra charge. We will contact you if this applies to your order.

For International orders (outside the U.S. 50 states and Canada) please allow three full business days for your order to arrive. U.S. territories such American Samoa, Guam, Midway Island, Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands are considered International destinations.

IMPORTANT -- At peak floral delivery periods, such as the days preceding Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, please order at least two days in advance to ensure timely delivery. Items requested for delivery near a holiday may be delivered the day BEFORE or AFTER the date requested. If this is not acceptable, please specify in the comments that we should cancel the order if delivery on the requested date is not possible.

For USA/Canada orders received at least two business days in advance (excluding peak floral delivery periods), we will be happy to honor requests whenever possible for AM delivery, PM delivery, or delivery by a specific afternoon time (e.g., by 4:00 PM). Please note, however, that in some cases delivery may not be possible within the specific time constraints requested, due to circumstances beyond our control. We cannot guarantee it.

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 except orders to Vietnam.

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.
