BloomsByTheBox D-I-Y Wedding Flowers

re design has to change - sending only 4 of 6 types of flowers ordered makes the 4 that arrived useless for the original project. Won’t use again.

ooms, the company was friendly and helpful to give a full refund for the delphiniums.

Light Blue Flower) for a bridal shower. The carnations, eucalyptus, and Delphinium arrived in perfect condition. The Mini Gerbera Daisies arrived SMASHED by the ice packs in the box. I'm not sure why the ice packs were put on the most delicate flowers, but 1 of the flowers was completely broken off the steam and multiple had missing petals and one had mold on the flower. Overall the majority of our Order arrived safely and as expected. I would just be cautious of ordering delicate florals from Blooms by the Box in the future.

ntory they advertised and designed my arrangements on this selection. The company called me the day after I placed my order to confirm the contents of my order and delivery address. 24 hours before my order was expected to arrive, the company called to say that 4 of the 11 items in My order were unavailable- only fillers were available and none of the local flowers that were the basis of my design. The company offered some substitution suggestions but none were close to the color palette I had originally ordered or resembled the flowers in my original order. I called to request that my order be cancelled on account of this as I could source better flowers from my local grocery store for half the price but they said the order had already been dispatched. When the flowers arrived, NONE of them were usable! They had basically packaged the dregs of what was left in their cold room. Stems were rotten, flowers were dead, dried and discolored, they had charged me for the replacements along with what they had not been able to fulfill. Some bunches that were apparently in stock were missing from my order. I had to scramble to buy all new flowers with less than 24 hours of the event, doubling what I spent on flowers. When I called to complain and demand a reimbursement, this company was not sympathetic or helpful at all. I had to send them pictures of ALL affected stems- multiple times, resending emails bc they couldn’t get the jpegs to open, for them to even consider reimbursing me. They imposed rudimentary deadlines on me- “if not received by noon we will not consider reimbursement”. I was reimbursed for 75% of my order despite not being able to use any of the flowers ordered. This was for a rehearsal dinner, and. I can’t imagine how distressing this would have been were it for my sisters wedding event. Stay away from this company at all costs.

run to Kroger to buy more.

ime and order but the flowers were so disappointing. We had ordered specifically for a party and had called the company beforehand to find out if the reds (plural) were indeed different types of red as pictured. We were assured that yes the delivery would include a range of different types of reds similar to the photo on the website and likely each stem would have a number of buds on it that if ordered for an early delivery would be open on the day of our event. The quantity of flowers that arrived was underwhelming. We expected something like the photograph that pictured a range of reds. and what we received was all the same solid red. Each stem had only one small flower on it approx 2” across. The buds were green and not at all ready to open. The blooms were not good enough to make the foundation of bouquets—dahlias are quite showy!, and we had to search for another option to create substantial bouquets. We were fortunate that we did not have to spend more money, throwing good money after bad - a friend provided flowers from her garden, averting a complete disaster for the party. In effect each flower cost $5 which is simply exorbitant. The eucalyptus that arrived was in such an advanced stage of growth that the medallions were twice the size of each dahlia head thereby making them look more like daisies than the lush multicolored dahlias we saw in the photos and which we were assured we would receive. When we called to voice our dissatisfaction we were told in a curt and quick manner that we must submit our complaint within 24 hours and with detailed photos which we did promptly. Despite that and even being first time customers we were refused a refund, a partial refund and not even offered a credit.Other than the timely delivery itself, our disappointment is complete.

had correct shipping & was very helpful & reassuring. The petals arrived in plenty of time & in fantastic condition. Great experience, I appreciate your professionalism & follow through

structions. My flowers lasted much longer than I even expected. I will absolutely use this company again.

st perfect sub flower for me. I am thankful for them, and my event went perfectly!

care less and when they did arrive they're mostly broken or rotten! They are a total scam and could careless! I was going to donate them to a nursing home but at this point they're half dead. Save your money and don't EVER use them. - all my opinion

y boxed and alive. The included instructions were also very helpful.

promised and were healthy and beautiful.

eral vases in order to make flower arrangements for an event today 3/17 (Friday). The peonies are virtually unusable. They are dropping petals like crazy. They were kept in cold water, out of direct sunlight, in a cool room since Wed afternoon. There were no leaves floating in the water to create mold/fungus issues. Ordering from Blooms by the Box was a waste of money. I have ordered from your company before, as well as from companies such as Global Rose, Fifty Flowers, even Costco for bulk flowers and have never had such an issue where the flowers aren’t usable.

tions on how to prepare the flowers prior to arranging them. It’s definitely DIY but the flowers lasted far longer that my trial flowers from the florist. The arrangements were beautiful!

r in the two days before the wedding so I didn’t end up using any of those in my bouquet but they still looked pretty In the other arrangements!

here was a few substitutes and communication regarding the substitute was great! Blooms customer service was prompt and kind. I get it-can’t always get flowers wanted and fortunately I had back up plans and used two other vendors. For the bridal bouquet (white Lilies) I didn’t need hiccups so I used a local florist for those as a backup. Wedding was beautiful and my niece was so happy! Flowers were a hit!!

so I left a message. My call was returned but now they have denied my refund because of the time frame which was beyond my control. I had called them no less than 4 times once I realized my box was delayed on Thursday. So I was in constant contact. I also had to drive 2hrs to replace unusable flowers for my event and now lost $200 since MY customer clearly isn’t expected to pay the difference as any good business would do.

t substitutions. My flowers came on time and were beautiful!

ed exactly when promised. Couldn’t be happier!

bsite. And im still getting compliments on the arrangements. Thank you for assisting with our dreamy day.

of our flowers here!! We can’t say enough about the amazing silver dollar eucalyptus!! So gorgeous!!

ne looking for a giant box of flowers ❤️❤️

nd there is a variation in colors when growing but not from light peach to Gala apple red. They refunded me 25% for this and the Hypericum Peach Berries cannot be used at all. They are curt and act like they are doing you a favor by providing you with flowers rather than being grateful for you order. You can find lovely folks to work with elsewhere. Buyer Beware.

nce and couldn't have asked for more beautiful flowers to be delivered right to my door. The quantity for the price was also incredible. My flowers for the aisles as well as bouquets came out amazing and the DIY instructions on their website helped out a lot. I also can't say enough about how great the customer service is. When I notice one of the flowers I ordered was missing I called and got an answer immediately and was refunded in no time. I would definitely use this company again in the future!

work with and will help you with any problems.

and there are tons of instruction videos and pre-matched kits of flowers to assist with that. We had a couple of substitutions last minute, which they do warn you is a possibility if they do not have the stock, and they are super responsive and flexible about replacements so I did not find this too much of an issue--just be aware if you are really set on a particular sort of flower, we ended up swapping out the roses that were the main flower. But I liked what we ended up with! The delivery was right on schedule, flowers were in good shape. Recommend!

d my mind, and glad i went with BloomsByTheBox. I will admit i was a bit scared thinking my flowers are going to be shipped in a cramped hot box 2 days before my wedding. but they arrived perfectly on time. The carnations and roses looked a bit tired when they arrived, but after snipping the ends and placing them in water, they woke up the next day and the white roses opened a lot. All the greenery and hanging eucalyptus was EXACTLY what i wanted. I ordered one pack with extra carnations for centerpieces and i made 5 bridesmaids bouquets and my bouquet was ginormous and still had flowers left over for my bridesmaids to have even bigger bouquets. there were even flowers left for them to put in their hair. i'd order from them a million times over.

e things we ordered because instead of sending us eight counts of it, we received four plus four of random foliage that did not match. I was working with a professional flower arranger and she had never seen anything like it. She could tell immediately that the flowers weren't fresh, but we still had to jump through hoops to get just a partial refund. We had to run to Costco to get fresh flowers we could use and cut some of the foliage from my garden. This all happened on the day of my bachelorette party, 2 days before the wedding. Save yourselves the money and emotional stress and stay far, far away.

with helped confirm that the arrangements would look good and how many stems of each I should buy. She even helped me create a cheat sheet on how many stems to put in each bouquet or arrangement. There are only a few downsides to using this service for your wedding: you are forced to carve out time to arrange all of the flowers the day before your wedding which can be stressful, but also can be fun and memorable if you get enough family and friends to help. Also if you are not getting married in your hometown, having to order the flowers to your address and then transport them to your venue is also a little stressful. I think our bouquets came out BEAUTIFUL and we were so under budget, but I would recommend buying 5-10 extra stems of anything you get. We had a few flowers that were a little droopy and we decided to toss them out, but didn't have anything to replace them with. Also, the wedding DIY supply package and the wet floral foam was a life saver.

vernight, so we followed the care instructions and waited. The next day of the wedding it looked more shriveled and limp. We were only able to use 6 of the stems. I sent pictures to the company and described the condition of the ivy but they refused to refund our money. They said they didn’t feel like the ivy looked bad enough and we only had 24 hours to send photos and request a refund. No one had time to do this the day of the wedding. DO NOT order from this company. Good thing I ordered our wedding flowers from Costco and they arrived and rehydrated beautifully.

prompt delivery gave me plenty of time to prep the flowers. The directions were easy to follow, and the flowers were safely packaged. The price cannot be beat!

rusted what they said in instructions, cut and watered them and by wedding day they looked beautiful. You might be able to get more perfect-looking flowers from a florist, but if you need many flowers and “very good if not quite perfect” does the job, you can’t beat the deal. We paid almost as much for five corsages at the florist as we paid for 100 roses from BBtB.

seeded eucalyptus. Unfortunately, most of the flowers didn't make it to the wedding day, however, we did have enough to make all of the bouquets. I followed the directions to the T once they arrived. I unpackaged the flowers, cut them on an angle under water, put them in cool water and left them in buckets in a cool space from Thursday until Friday evening. At least 3 of the roses fell apart just as I unpacked them from the shipping box and 1 bunch of eucalyptus was brown and a second was starting to turn. I changed the water on Friday afternoon to keep it fresh. By the time I went to put the bouquets and arrangements together on Saturday, only about 1/3 of the roses were usable as they were falling apart or turning brown. Half of the eucalyptus was too dry to use. The hydrangeas were still in decent shape. Luckily we were able to piece together bouquets from the hydrangeas, the few roses that were left, babies breath and a little bit of eucalyptus but there really wasn't anything left for decor anywhere else. It was a lot of money to spend for six bouquets and I was disappointed because I followed all the directions very closely.

s. The flowers looked better than the day before. By Saturday morning, the flowers looked PERFECT! We could not be happier. Also, before purchasing, we received very honest communication about the number of flowers we needed to purchase to accommodate what we needed to make. I was originally nervous to trust an online source for our Big Day, but BloomsByBox really was outstanding and the flowers bloomed perfectly! Nothing to worry about.

I like pink instead of peach. I said only if it matches and they said it would.... but it definitely did not. It was hot pink while everything else I had was white and light peach. I had more than enough flowers to cover for them and ended up getting a refund for those pink ones since I couldn't use them. I was pretty happy overall, but a little disappointed since they originally said it would be in season and available. I would have rather had extra white instead of adding in a new color that didn't match anything.

em than I was about the Hydrangea's I ordered for my mother's 95th birthday celebration. When they arrived they were wrapped and protected to the "Nines". I followed all of the instructions by your polite and wonderful customer service and the arrangements turned out perfect! The flowers really do come back to life once hydrated. I borrowed bins to get them started as soon as they arrived. Then the next about 36 hours we started the arrangements. (The night before event) The morning of the party they opened and fill out even more and looked fabulous in the vases. I recommend this organization highly. I you have the time, do it yourself, save money and go with Blooms by the Box!

online. I prepared them according to their online instructions and the morning of our wedding day, they were in full bloom and looking even more beautiful than when they arrived. I saved a lot of money by choosing BloomsByTheBox and absolutely recommend this vendor to other DIY brides.

day before. I am amazed at how well they turned out. We used them for our bouquets, for centerpieces, and for boutonnieres. They lasted all night and looked lovely! I highly recommend if you are trying to save costs and are a DIY bride.
