I most recently used Bouqs and really liked it. I need to send several bouquets so I'm wondering what everyone's favorite place to order from is!

Farmgirlflowers!!! I've sent and received. Gorgeous burlap wrapped bouquets that actually come looking like the pictures.

I didn't know there were other flower delivery places! I always used flowers. Com or pro flowers and don't like them. I'm going to have to look there up.

@snowjewelz: My sweet DH ordered through Proflowers awhile back, and I would not suggest them at all. He was definitely disappointed in what arrived and said that it was not at all like what had been pictured.

@Pumpkin Pie: Bouqs has been great!!
@dcw6411: Yeah I told DH I rather get flowers from the grocery store than from 1800 or pro flowers!

@snowjewelz: Huh. I must be the only one who has had a bad experience with Bouqs. They have messed up my order twice. My MIL seemed pretty underwhelmed with her bouquet the last time I ordered.

@Pancakes: Aww! Did you talk to their customer service? I feel like for these kinda boutique companies they'd want to make things right!

Bouqs is great! I used them for my mom's birthday and she got the coolest tropical bouquet with mini bananas in it!

@Raindrop: HA! I have no idea, I don't think so! The bouquet was called "Flamingo" if they still have it.

@psw27: For some reason... maybe mother's day coming up... the site is kind of slow for me!! I just did a google imagine search for the name ... very pretty!
Yeah I am not sure if I would try eating them...

@Pancakes: agreed! My sister sent me a Boqus bouquet, and I was very underwhelmed. It looked nothing like the picture and they left off the card, so I had NO idea who it was from! I had to send a bunch of awkward texts to people asking if it was them....

@Raindrop: Yeah I'm having the same problem with the site! I don't think they have it anymore, which is probably a good thing cause I would accidentally order it again. My parents live in FL so something tropical suits their house.

@snowjewelz: We just used Bouqs for the 1st time to send Mother's Day flowers. DH has been unhappy with flowers dot com & such.

i've used bloomnation with great results--however it tends to be pricey for the good ones!

@MrsLonghorn: that is REALLY awkward...!
I mean, I've only used it once before today, but my sister loved it and showed me a pic and it looked great! I don't think the friend I sent these to will take a picture of them for me tho, haha.

I love Bouqs and order from them probably around 10 times a year. I've only had one instance where the flowers were not up to par and they immediately sent out a new bouquet. Their customer service was great.

@oliviaoblivia: agree. Definitely not proflowers. And awful customer service.

I'm giving Bouqs another try. I bought myself a bouquet right before I had LO, and was underwhelmed. I'm hoping ordering the delux size for my mom will make more of a statement.
** Bouqs has a deal right now, where you can double your blooms for free on select bouquets. A lot are sold out, but still some good options. I ordered last week to make sure my mom gets them on time. Put Bouqs Double Up in Google, and the page should come up!

I used to really love hallmark flowers. I was really sad when they stopped delivering flowers.
I've tried FTD and Pro flowers and what not, but I think it's better just to call the local florist that will be delivering the flowers directly. They know better what they have in stock and what's fresh.

I have received a gorgeous Farmgirl Flowers bouquet myself but didn't realize they shipped nationally too - just ordered one for my mom (who lives far away) and will see how it goes for Mother's Day!

I Yelp local floral shops. I typically find its a much better value. Harder if you're sending to many locations though.
