A whole 24 hours passed and no confirmation of delivery, no word from the recipient that they had received the arrangement. I called very early the next morning and spoke to a woman who said she was the store manager. She said they normally send out email confirmations upon delivery and checked my order. Sure enough, she told me my arrangement did not go out same day. Additionally, she had the wrong address listed on their end. Not sure how that happened as I checked my receipt and it had the correct address. If I hadn't called to check on the delivery, the arrangement would have ended up at the wrong address. Very unhappy with the demeanor of this woman who was very non chalant at their mistake. She asked me what could be done to make up for the oversight. I asked her what she felt would be appropriate. She said she would make sure that the delivery went out "priority" and she would add some flowers to the arrangement to make up for it. I'm in California and called at 7:30AM PT / 10:30AM Eastern. I didn't receive an email confirmation of delivery until 8PM ET that night!! So much for her promise on "priority." Additionally, the address listed on my confirmation STILL had the incorrect address. I tried calling the store as soon as I received the email to confirm where the arrangement was delivered. No answer. I left a voicemail and asked for someone to call me back. I've given them more than 24 hours to respond and still have not heard from them. I am not familiar with the area as I live on the west coast, and I relied on Yelp to find a "good" florist. I carefully read through reviews for several rated florists and decided to go with Bloom Fresh Flowers. What a let down when there were other highly rated options to choose from. Extremely disappointed in the lack of customer care and service here.

Our family has been frequenting Christopher's family florist on a weekly basis since it opened here 25 years ago. Their flowers are always fresh and wonderfully beautiful. Their arrangements typically stay healthy and vibrant for a week or two after delivery. Maria, the shop's owner, is the finest flower arranger I've ever encountered. Whatever the occasion, her arrangements are absolutely stunning. Christopher's staff is cordial, competent, and helpful. They graciously do everything they can to ensure a satisfied customer. The hallmark of any good business is good customer service. Christopher's provides just such outstanding service. They are a friendly, able, and customer-centered group of folks. If you are looking for a superb florist, you need look no further. read more

My husband and I used Christopher's Flowers for our wedding and we could not be more pleased! Maria and Frank were wonderful to work with and the flowers were beautiful! Frank readily returned phone calls, answered questions and made adjustments to our order as needed. Everything was delivered to the church and set up in time, no fuss, not problems. Maria's arrangements for both the church and the reception fit our vision perfectly! Several of our guests commented on how beautiful the centerpieces were and how delicate and lovely the bouquets were. Christopher's Flowers was an oasis in the middle of hectic wedding planning! read more

Oh my gosh, this florist is outstanding. I called crying because the flowers I had ordered a week ago from 1-800 flowers were not delivered. Do not ever use them. Anyway, I called Christopher's and they are delivering an arrangement right this minute. They were so nice and went above and beyond for me. I cannot say enough about their kindness to me. You all were my angels today. My best friend died and I was so upset that she wouldn't get the flowers...but Christopher's came to the rescue. Marie, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The only reason it wasn't one star was because the flowers were delivered on time. I ordered the Dance With Me Premium bouquet via the website with at least a dozen red roses. What I got was a standard size bouquet with only 2 pink roses. Luckily my wife loved them anyway, otherwise I would have requested a refund. I won't order from here again though. Side note, kept getting voicemail when I called. Finally get someone, ask them a question, then he says to hold and puts me to voicemail. Overall unhappy experience. read more

The owner spent almost an hour with me a week prior to pickup to talk about the arragnement including what color flowers, price and size of the arrangement. He wrote in a spiral notebook and added me to the computer system. As requested, I called and left a detailed message but never heard back. I even received a text message saying that they would call me back - the owner claimed it was an AI error. When I went to pick up the arrangement - there was no arragement - and the owner acted like he had never seen me before. In my grief, I lashed out and eventually apologized. What is mind blowing is that the owner could not admit his mistake. Clearly he had messed up and the appropriate thing to do would have apologized. Instead he said the customer is NEVER right and threw us out of the store.

The florist is wonderful, and every arrangement looks unique, fresh, and high-end. You can truly tell the flowers are quality. Definitely order ahead for major holidays because they get busy. Even though Eden Center parking can be chaotic, I will absolutely keep coming back because the beauty, size, and value of these bouquets are unmatched.

When I spoke to the manager he tried to place blame on the whole seller about the price and offered no reason why I paid $8 for a $2 flower and was extremely rude throughout the call. That's a 301% mark up and a roughly 76% gross margin. Pathetic. In today's economy as a consumer we are seeing these inflated prices on EVERYTHING but nothing like this. If you value your dollar STAY AWAY!! Safe Way around the corner have the corner have the same hydrangeas, better looking and much cheeper around $2.60 per stem.
