Very happy with how this issue was handled. Very disappointed. I bought a beautiful, colorful bouquet but what was delivered was pale and missing flowers. I understand that when certain flowers are not available, substitutions are made but in this case there was no substitution for the missing flowers except for a foil balloon (which I don't think it a proper substitution). There is no fuchsia stock, raspberry sinuata statice, or sword Fern. I recommend other florists in the area.

Dearly Beloved Floral & Gifts has you covered for any special occasion or just every day gifts. I…read morelove this spot. Tucked away in an unassuming parking lot, Dearly Beloved is a beautiful oasis of wonder. They have such a beautiful store with so much love and intentionality poured into it. If I'm in the area, I enjoy stopping by just to enjoy the beautiful space they have created here. Their bouquets and floral arrangements are stunning and impressive. I have seen them execute all styles and creative fun ideas for all types of events, all done to their exceedingly high level of excellence in quality and craftsmanship. I have purchased a bouquet and a nice large arrangement from them, but I would like to get more adventurous next time and really push their creativity such as a super cool burn bouquet I watched another customer purchase. The owner, Melanie, and her trustee right hand, Rain, are two of the sweetest folks and both are extremely talented at their craft. They're happy get to know you, learn about the why behind the flowers, and to explore all the ways to make your arrangement as special as can be. It's fun to chit chat and get creative with them. Beyond floral arrangements, they have a strong potted plant selection which beautifully decorates one of their back walls, as well as gifts and locally made goods from local brands who don't have traditional storefronts such as Meemaw's Soaps and Stuff which they carry consistently. I have purchased and enjoyed both Meemaw's Soaps as well as a nice outdoor decoration with stone frogs which became my first decoration to my yard. It definitely added some much needed whimsy to my yard lol. I'm always looking forward to my next visit to Dearly Beloved!

It's located in a little retail strip mall with other boutique size businesses. The shop had flowers for purchase, by bouquet or single stems. Gorgeous, fresh blooms just sitting pretty and joyful in large vases. They also had houseplants and local crafted items for purchase. The back patio adjoins to the next door's cafe patio area. The larger potted plants that are displayed on the patio adds to the chill, relaxing vibe. The shop clerk was welcoming and helpful.

NOT THE FLOWERS I PAID FOR. 1st photo is what I ordered. 2nd photo is what was delivered. They dumped water all over the mat. The WRONG card was included with NO address or indication who it was for, signed from people named Kerry and Lucious???Whom, my sister and husband don't know. Wondering who the flowers were for, they realized their neighbor (who's daughters name is Kerry) just passed away, so they took the flowers to them assuming they were delivered to the wrong address. When those neighbors called Dirt Botanicals and they figured out their mistake, they redelivered with correct card but WRONG flowers. What was delivered was super generic. I could have gotten a much better generic arrangement at Costco for 1/4 the price.

If we're being perfectly honest... we LOVED Reverend Southwick from the moment we met. We both knew…read morethat this was the Reverend we wanted to lead us through this big life step. The first day we met, he spent time getting to know us and also allowing us to know him. His heart is in the right place and care about the people he works with and the church community in the neighborhood. He supported us the whole time, helping answer our questions either over the phone or in emails and keeping us calm. We both grew up in Catholic homes but since then have become more liberal in our beliefs which Reverend Southwick understood and spoke to. He clarified a ton of questions we had (mostly from our families confusing us) and was able to create a ceremony that respected our religious roots without sticking to the traditional church script (we didn't want a long ceremony). He also tied in our shared cultural traditions soo smoothly (he is Mexican and I am Filipino) which was so important for us to have. Even our set up girl remarked at how positively shocked she was that he was willing to help us during the rehearsal! Everyone loved him and the humor he brought to the day which was very necessary because this is such a big, emotional and at times highly anxious day. Get to know him, you won't regret it. We will continue to look to him for guidance in our marriage, for our spirituality and in life. What a great new relationship!!
