We ordered a bouquet for a dear family member. The gentleman that answered the phone was courteous and incredibly kind. I asked that the flowers be delivered that day, if possible, and he said they would get there by noon. He did better than that, a gorgeous bouquet was delivered within the hour!! Beautiful flowers and top-notch service, thank you so much! read more

David Benefield at Highland Hall - Florists Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

I live in Atlanta and ordered flowers today for a dear friend in Columbus who passed away. I knew that my arrangement would be exquisite. And it was. This is not your usual floral shop. Here they understand that you are ordering flowers for a reason. Something sad or wonderful or special or remarkable or in need of a gesture of gratitude They listen to you as you describe why you need the arrangement and then interpret your vision in such a beautiful way. I always know that whatever I order will be perfect. Everyone was asking where the perfect white hydrangea arrangement came from. Simple white with a little greenery on a clear glass base. Just perfect. Thank you David and team. It was a sad trip to say goodbye to my friend but those wonderful flowers honored her. Thank you so much. You are so much more than a florist. And today you were part of celebrating a a special woman's life. read more

David Benefield at Highland Hall - Hydrangea arrangement - Florists Near Me - Columbus, Georgia

I had a lovely experience working with David long distance over the phone and by fb messenger. After our first phone conversation I knew I wouldn't bother calling any other florist as he was so kind and flexible. He arranged this beautiful piece of art (see photo) and delivered it to a local funeral home. My family loved it. The arrangement was so far beyond a "teleflora" item (and very reasonable), and is just what we wanted. Thank you, David and crew! (His website isn't up just now so I found him through fb, where there are many examples of his art.) read more

A wonderful florist in a beautiful old house I called to order an arrangement and it was ready in 15 minutes! Super nice and helpful staff. read more

I grew up in Columbus but have been away for over 40 years. Recently a teacher who taught at my junior high school and his wife were in need of some glorious flowers. I asked around and someone suggested David. We texted back and forth on a Friday and he had a beautiful orchid at their home the next day. The orchid and the customer service were the best! Thank you again read more

Ordered the Violets and Butterflies arrangement and received pathetic arrangement that was not even close to what was ordered. Seems like they don't care what they send out. read more

I have used David for my floral needs for over 20 years!!! He and his staff are always professional, not to mention kind beyond words. My daughter had major surgery about 10 years ago and they surprised her with a darling bouquet as a get well gift from their store. Such good people. read more

David was wonderful and went over the top with my wedding flowers. He listens to all you your ideas, helps you visualize them, and then puts them into reality! Our wedding wouldn't have gone smoothly without his guidance. He is awesome! read more

I ordered flowers for my wife and children for Mother's Day. They went above and beyond, my wife told me it was the most beautiful flower arrangement she's seen, they made arrangement for my daughter and my son, and even included a teddy bear. They did more than I had asked for. They brought joy and happiness to my family while I'm deployed so I am very thankful. read more

See all

I stumbled upon Ann's Porch when I was en route to a florist that (luckily for me!) had closed up shop. A neighboring business recommended him. They called him at noon on a Saturday and asked him to keep the shop open a bit longer so they could send me over. This was the first of many kind, "above-and-beyond" things David did for me and my wedding! Searching for a florist (or anything) for a wedding is terrible - everything with "wedding" associated with it is immediately 30-60% more expensive. David at Ann's Porch is the most honest, personable businessman. He didn't try to upsell me, he met with me and my mom and grandma on short notice, he recommended colors and combinations of flowers to achieve my vision, and did everything (which wasn't a small order) inside my budget. Even when we found that we could afford a little extra (just for his trouble) he wouldn't accept it. He is a VERY rare find when it comes to a merchant and treats every single one of his customers as if they are the most important person to him. He treats you like family - better than some people's family really! My grandmother was just smitten with him as well because aside from doing beautiful flowers, he is a lovely, entertaining person! I can't wait until my wedding and for the next chance I have to get flowers from Ann's Porch! read more

Talk about above and beyond in quality of customer service and creativity! That and more! I called last week to order flowers for my daughter and her fiancé who had a scheduled wedding delayed for a year. I needed them delivered first thing Saturday, May 23 morning(their original wedding date) and had hoped the bouquet could include flower types of their original wedding. One of those flowers was peonies. David was so apologetic that he didn't have peonies, which I completely understood! He even offered to get coral peonies from Atlanta but I said that wasn't necessary and told him to just create an arrangement in whites, creams and light pink in whatever flowers he had. I mentioned white hydrangeas were in the original flowers for the wedding but told David to just do what he felt would work. Well, when my daughter and her fiancé received the arrangement, she said it was "Stunning!!" and sent a picture. Much to my surprise, there were white peonies! Somehow David had made it happen! Also, the white hydrangeas and pale pink roses were absolutely perfect! I wish the engaged couple were getting married in Columbus next year because there would be no question who would be the florist! read more

So, I really need to update this review. I ordered some funeral flowers and boy did they mess up my order. I won't get into the details. Why? Because every business makes mistakes. Their real values show in how they make up for it...and boy did they make up for it. David personally brought a HUGE basket of flowering plants to the home of my loved ones. He personally apologized to the family. On top of that, he completely refunded my payment. David and Ann's Porch is the epitome of exceptional customer service, and how a business should operate. read more

The arrangments were nice but this place way over charges. I mean really $3 per cornation and $5 per rose. I wish i would have had more time to shop around before having to choose this place. read more
