Because they're not open on Sundays (the recipient's birthday) I had to have them delivered next day - which IS a short turnaround time, and the florist did actually deliver before noon on Saturday(!), which is an *amazing* turnaround time. The recipient LOVED the bouquet, said it was gorgeous and fragrant, and the flowers look healthy. I'm very happy about that. The bad: Now it's winter, and seasonal availability plays into the finished bouquet, period. I understand that, and Alice's even has a clear disclaimer about it on their order page. Cool. I added a request that no lilies be used in substitutions due to cats in the recipient's home. This request was followed. GREAT! Buuuut...the final product really doesn't look more than a passing resemblance to what I ordered. Yes, the same vase. Yes, yellow roses (different shade though), yes hydrangea, and spray roses, and pale pink alstroemeria are scattered in there. BUT an *overwhelming* percentage of greenery vs *actual flowers*. Whatever the season availability was, I expected a profusion of flowers dotted with greenery, per their picture. I've included photos of what I ordered vs what was received. Had it been less greenery and more flowers - as in the order page picture - I wouldn't be complaining here at all. They say "Although the actual bouquet may not precisely match the photo, its temperament will. Occasionally, substitutions of flowers and/or containers happen due to weather, seasonality and market conditions which may affect availability. If this is the case with the gift you've selected, we will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal value or higher value." But this isn't the same color scheme, it bears only a passing resemblance to the ordered bouquet, and it definitely doesn't look like equal or higher value. It looks like less. 3 stars.

Sending flowers to my wife at her place of work to surprise her for anniversary, birthday, or any other special event in her life. Recently, I had Alices Flower Shop send a special bouquet to my wife for her retirement from her job of 44 years. To make it extra special I got the large two dozen rose bouquet of multicolored roses. It was truly a beautifully prepared, delivered right to her place of work. All her work Associates were truly jealous again after she received this special bouquet. Alices Flower Shop did it again with their beautiful arrangement and fresh flowers. I recommend Alices Flower Shop to anyone to send flowers to their loved ones locally... They are the best. !!

My aunt *loves* this florist so I always make sure to order her birthday flowers from here. We ordered a gorgeous purple themed arrangement for my aunt's birthday this year, the website photos do not do it justice. The arrangement we chose was Teleflora's Portrait in Purple standard bouquet (a bargain at $52.95). Why it's a bargain is the most vibrant colored flowers were included along with a beautiful rich-looking blue cube vase. Some of the flowers included cream roses, blue hydrangea, purple alstroemeria, white spray roses, purple stock and lemon leaf. There were several roses that were just opening a little, and my aunt was smiling for days. The flowers lasted quite a long time, they didn't wilt for a while. I love supporting a good local business. They also came to my rescue when I needed flowers for a funeral service, they responded promptly via email and delivered early. They are reliable and their web site has an amazing selection. This is the third time I have ordered from them and I am quite pleased.

My friend is an artist who had painted a stunning picture of his wife in a field of red flowers and another of a guardian angel for her when she was ill. Brenda took those two images and created an unique and beautiful tribute unlike anything I've ever seen -- 36 roses in a vase with a pair of wings. My friend was truly touched by the arrangement as well as the symbolism behind it. I cannot thank Brenda enough for her dedication and care for this job. The price was right, and she went above and beyond to get just the proper accessories for the flowers.

LOCATION: The shop is located in a new shopping plaza that is set back on Woodbury's Main Street. EXPERIENCE: I first countered Brenda Christie's event installations at the opening of Home and Earth, just north of her shop on Woodbury's Main Street. The design wove vertical, horizontal, and center table floral displays with candles of equally varied dimension. Many florists will produce a pretty floral arrangement, but memorable... eye-catching? For that I would recruit Brenda Christie. Although Home and Earth is worth a visit in itself, as testament to the event experience, I returned to the shop the following day just to have more opportunity to enjoy the ephemeral installation! A recent visit to Woodbury's Bouquets & Beyond provided opportunity for me to see a summer collection of stems awaiting use by talented, award-winning florist and business owner, Brenda Christie. The case is filled with vibrantly colored blooms, including those that popularly appear in local summer gardens, such as hydrangea, lady's mantle, and sea holly, as well as tropicals that are not commonly found in other Litchfield County florist shops. The diversity of the collection reflects the bold creativity of Brenda Christie, through whom a unique and opulent bouquet is guaranteed. While the shop is positioned in a new business plaza in the southeastern corner of Litchfield County, Christie's floral designs have been installed in event spaces, business offices, and homes across the state. Local partners include the Mayflower Inn and Spa, Winvian Farm, Hopkins Vineyard, the 1754 House, and the Litchfield Inn.

Previous reviews are very old so I assume this is a new thing. There were two young people working and I don't think management expected the crowd. The young man kept taking orders but not helping to fill any. Then Im not quite sure he showed his co worker our order for two sundaes. I asked him about it after six orders for milkshakes taken after our orders were completed. He told me they are working on it. Finally, I had to stop the girl handing out milkshakes Then the young guy couldn't tell him where he wrote our order. So to save some time we gave our orders again. Shortt's has amazingly good ice cream. They just need management to get with their team and get a better system for larger groups. I noticed an important miss they were not taking names. After we had our sundaes I would hear them yell out chocolate milk shake or oreo milkshake and a few people saying thats me. Im sure Shortt's will have lots of continued customers once they get a better system for crowds in place. The ice cream is worth it.

Danielle and her team communicated effectively and suggested modifications as necessary to make your dreams come true. The first meeting with her was online and she was able to show her work and you know right away how organized and professional she is just based on the first meeting.

Southbury Country Florist absolutely made my Mom's best friend, Rita's, birthday so special…read more The floral arrangement the owner, Kim Bova, created was gorgeous - fresh, full hydrangeas with beautiful seasonal greens and accents, arranged perfectly in a clear vase. It brightened up Rita's whole room the moment it arrived. The coordinating "Happy Birthday" card was so sweet and thoughtful, and she hasn't stopped talking about how pretty everything is. I purchased the beautiful birthday card, and the square on the card has seeds to be planted, and you soak it in water overnight, and place in a planter, cover with 1/8 inch of dirt, and it grows more flowers! I thought this was extra special so Rita can keep flowers blooming after the floral arrangement is long gone. From ordering to delivery, everything was smooth and right on time. It's clear they put real care into their work and into making their customers (and recipients!) feel special. I highly recommend Southbury Country Florist and I will definitely order from them again. If you have a family member or friend at River Glen Health Care Center in Southbury, CT, I please consider choosing Southbury Country Florist for any special gift or floral arrangement, because your recepient will love the care and creativity that goes into your arrangement and gift! Kim, thank you for making Rita feel very special on her 100th birthday!! 10 out of 10 rating!
