Typical florist bait and switch. Ordered a Mother's Day arrangement (purposely choosing to order from a local Florist near mom to avoid the 1-800 brands...) only to find that they delivered a shapeless, haphazardly thrown together arrangement. Of the THREE total roses placed into the vase, 2 were slightly wilted (not the biggest deal honestly) and all were cut extremely short drowning in the cheaper greenery filler pieces. To put the nail in the coffin, the florist opted to swap every single hydrangea (mom's favorite btw...) for cheap carnations despite me indicating at the time of order placement that I'd rather risk a delay to my delivery than substitute the main flowers! worst experience ever. read more

Bummed. I sent (low priced.. $50) dining table arrangement to cousin for family gathering. I saw it. Worse arrangement I've ever seen; more oval then elongated (which I asked for); was mostly greens, little color - and I did ask for low cost flowers. I was embarrassed. (I usually order minimal priced ones with other florists and have never been uphappy.) The proprietor offered to send a new one but it was a moot point since event had already taken place. I hinted at a refund for $15 (since I thought it was barely worth $35) but the receptionist didn't budge; said their minimum was $45. I am sorry for this poor review; forewarned. I usually don't do this but it was so disappointing. read more

I wish I would have read these reviews before placing an order. I sent flowers to my sister-in-law that is staying up there doing cancer treatments that were starting on her birthday. I used this florist because it was close to the home where she's staying. I called and asked if I could get a beautiful arrangement for no more than $100, the lady said of course it will be beautiful and charged me $95.43. When my sister-in-law sent me a picture i was really appalled, they looked like a $30 arrangement, and I felt ripped off. I just felt the need to warn others, it's been bothering me since 12/15/22. I'm sorry I didn't save the picture. read more

I ordered flowers online through the Blossom. The order was sent to April Showers Florist. The flowers that they sent were terrible. They looked nothing like what I ordered. The person I sent them to sent me a picture and I was so embarrassed I never would have brought something like that. They were definitely not worth $80. read more

I ordered an item for my aunt's birthday to be delivered to her house. What she received was COMPLETELY different than as shown in the image on their website. The flowers used were not the same and were of a lower quality than demonstrated on their website. It was such a RIP OFF and waste of money. We will never be ordering from April Showers again read more

Ordered flowers and a balloon for a graduation.....well, the balloon was stuck on a stick with tape, barely any helium, no flowers in the back of the vase...owner absolutely unprofessional, would not let me talk, did not apologize..something very wrong with the owner and her business...basically blamed me for using a wire service..imagine that. O Stay away from this business!! read more

I recently sent flowers to my daughter in law who had a very bad accident. I was there when the flowers arrived. They were ok, but not what I had expected.For the price, I expected more. An hour later another arrangement came from a different florest, I won't mention the name, but that arrangement put mine to shame. Needless to say, I will be using the other florest from now on. read more

I went there today to buy a rose for my wife. The one lady working in the store was professional. She promptly gave me what I wanted. A single rose in a bud vase cost $15. I was happy with the price and the great customer service. I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5 because this shop does not accept American Express. read more

April Showers - I am giving them 4 stars instead of 5 because this shop does NOT accept American Express. - Florists Near Me - Jackson, New Jersey

I used April Showers for centerpieces for a friend's Bridal Shower. The centerpieces were GORGEOUS and the prices were quite fair. I also used their delivery service and everything arrived on time. I will definitely be using them again. read more

In response to Audrey T. who apparently is the owner of this business; first, I find it amusing that you gave yourself 5 stars. Next, in your response you neglected to mention that in one piece you used only half the number of roses that were in the picture we were shown. 19 roses were pictured, you used only 10, and in the other piece you used tiny roses that were lost in the piece, rather than the larger ones in the picture that gave it scale and dimension. You offered us a store credit; wouldn't you find it strange to be offered a store credit from a store that you were unhappy with. "Mafia techniques and bully behavior", I really do think that this is a bit of a personal attack, when our comments were about a service you provided and not personal. I will not lower my self to respond to any more of your self reviews, previous reviews of your business speak for themselves. What I will do is share with anyone in our 900 household community what our experience was with your business. read more

Honestly, April Showers came to mind after I went to my nearby florist and saw they were closed in the middle of the morning on a Friday. I was highly disappointed, and remembered this place. April Showers is located in one of the older strip malls in Jackson, off of North County Line Rd and Bennetts Mills. It is family owned, and has a decent sized storefront. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a young girl and her little black lab puppy, all smiles and very friendly.Her mom promptly asked what I needed, and I told her I was on a budget of $30-40 for a bouquet for my daughter. (She was arriving home after a month long trip around Europe.) I had a wonderful conversation about the locals, about Labradors, family, etc, while she put together my flowers, which were absolutely STUNNING. Overall, I was so pleased with my arrangement and service, I'll probably never go to my "nearby" flower shop again. Thanks so much! read more

Awesome!! Beautiful arrangement & spectacular customer service!! Thank you so very much!!!

Working with Audrey was the best decision I made for my wedding! The flowers and centerpieces and altar pieces (EVERYTHING!!!) was perfect. In the first 10 minutes of meeting Audrey, I could tell she understood my vision completely and ran with it. She made such perfect suggestions and the final outcome was 100 times more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Thank you, Audrey! You are the best!!! read more

If there was an opportunity to give April Showers no stars, it would better describe my experience with them. I recently was married and used April Showers as my venue florist. Over the course of the year working with them to plan, there were so many red flags - I should have been a bit smarter and started fresh with another, more reputable store. The owner, Audra, was absolutely horrible to work with: she was nasty, curt with her answers, and never accommodating if I had a question or came in to choose our arrangements. She was just plain mean. The day of the wedding, she came into the venue with her unprofessional staff (loudly discussing irrelevant chitchat and lollygagging instead of preparing the venue quickly before guests arrived). We chose to provide vases and not only did she break some of the extra/'just in case' vases, she broke enough that she had to plop the arrangement on the table like pieces of trash. We were very clear about the look of the arrangements, but instead (after she agreed that she could do that arrangement and we paid in full for what we THOUGHT we were getting) she made arrangements that looked cheaper than what you find at the gas station and DID NOT add flowers on the base of the vase exposing the ugly wood bottom. Any TRUE PROFESSIONAL would never walk about from the diaster she made of the venue. If you are so inexperienced to not handle the work, at least be honest so we can find someone who can handle the job (and handle it professionally and kindly)! Our experience with Audra and April Showers was absolutely disgusting. Not only do I beg future brides to stay away from this florist, I plead that anyone interested in arrangements, bouquets, etc.: GO SOMEPLACE ELSE! The work she gave was embarrassing. I am still mortified with what she gave us- and not at all for a cheap price! BUYER BE WARNED!! read more

My son ordered his girlfriends prom corsage from here on my recommendation. Even though it was considerably more expensive then where he was going I felt they would give him more personal service. Boy was I wrong. On the day of his prom as he was leaving to go to the house where the limo was for pictures we noticed there was no wristlet to keep the corsage on her wrist. It clearly stated wrist corsage on his receipt. There wasn't even pins to pin it to her dress not that anyone wears it that way. I took the corsage back to have them add it but they were already closed @ 3pm on prom day! On Monday I called to inform them that my son had no corsage thanks to there mistake but was told the owner was gone for the day. When I finally talked to the owner on Tuesday she stated my son could have store credit. When I stated I thought she should give him his money back and send his girlfriend a small bouquet since thanks to them she had no corsage and I missed the pre-prom pictures. She said that wouldn't happen since she provided a product. It was a product that was useless! She even admitted that she was the one that screwed up! I know mistakes are made but this was horrible customer service. You don't mind paying more if the quality and service are there in my opinion neither was there for my son. We will not be using them again. Wish I could give no stars. read more

The customer service here was so bad that I will never use them and would urge others to find another florist. My family was sent a sympathy basket after the death of a family member and, while the plant was very nice, when the delivery person rang the bell, I did not hear it. Instead of calling then so I could answer the door, they returned to the store and someone called the house later. When I told the woman that I was indeed at home, she said I could come pick up the plant or they could come back the next morning Apparently they only deliver in the mornings and since we are usually at work in the mornings, they would not be able to deliver it. Thus, I had to go get it. I would personally be very unhappy to know that someone I had sent a basket to at a difficult time had to go pick it up. While I don't know for sure, I suspect that a delivery fee was charged and I am doubtful that it was refunded to the giver. A word to the wise, go somewhere else! read more

DO NOT USE THIS FLORIST!!! I ordered flowers for my Mother for Mother's Day through 1800 Flowers. I ordered, paid for and received a confirmation for a large arrangement. I paid extra to have the arrangement delivered the same day. The flowers were prepared and delivered by April Showers. First of all, they were not delivered on the day I ordered them, and second it was a (very) small arrangement. When my mother sent a picture of them to me to thank me, I was shocked and honestly, embarrassed. I called April Showers immediately, I spoke with Audrey, she was completely inappropriate and unprofessional. I was told that although I ordered, paid for and received confirmation for a LARGE arrangement, after 1800 Flowers takes their share of the payment, she only receives a small portion of the payment, therefore she prepares an arrangement based on what she is paid. I explained to her that was an issue she should take up with 1800 Flowers; the customer is not responsible for the business arrangement between the two of them, and if she wasn't happy with the arrangement she should consider not using the service. I fully expected her to do the right thing and fix the situation by offering to send another arrangement, preferably the one I ordered and PAID for; she did not. Actually, she yelled a lot and refused to let me speak at all, she said I shouldn't have used 1800 Flowers and should have called her directly. She told me I was not her customer, and the only way she would redo the arrangement is if I paid her for it a second time, when I told her I already paid once and was not going to pay again she hung up on me. read more

I ordered flowers for a wake. They were beautiful. I was very happy with this florist.

I thought I had ordered my grandparents a beautiful centerpiece for Christmas. Come to find out what I ordered and what was delivered was COMPLETELY different. The centerpiece was nothing like the picture on-line. Yes, I did say they could make something similar but what I ordered and what was delivered was not even close in quality or price range. I called to tell them how disappointed I was in the arrangement the lady told me she could send a new one over that was filled in more but that it would basically be the same thing! It would have just been helpful if they had called and said they couldn't make the centerpiece I ordered or maybe if they just made what I paid for in the first place. Their customer service was terrible, I should have read more reviews before giving them my business. I will never use them again, what a rip off! read more
