Thus, giving us an opportunity to see the flowers we had ordered. The only word I can use to describe her flower arrangement is breathtaking! They did such a fabulous job. I can't even list all of the flowers they used with this particular flower arrangement. The only instructions they were given was a dollar amount to work with. Thank you so much for making my sister's 75th birthday extra special!

I was pointedly ignored, even when I was in the same area of the small shop within eyeshot/earshot. I was the only customer in the store (and only PoC) before the two (white) customers came in separately, one after the other. This is treatment I also received at another shop at Ithaca mall (incidentally also with "Willow" in the name). Feels bad, man. Terse service when I asked a question of the staff member there. There's an anecdotal half-joke among us QPoC that a white person with colorful hair typically means "safe" staff for BIPOC/queer folks, but that was not the vibe I got here, sadly. It's too bad that Asian customers are treated this way at an establishment that sells so much Asian-inspired merchandise (kawaii goods, food items). I won't likely be back, even though it is a cute, very modern boutique. I will just head down to Michaleen's Florist & Greenhouse down the road and the farmer's market instead for plants, soaps, gifts. I feel more welcome in those spaces, even if they're predominantly white.

David was so gracious and easy to work with; I came to him with such a late request for these centerpieces and bouquets and he made it happen in just a couple of months' time. We had one great, efficient call and, after that, I didn't have to worry about a thing. The team at Willow Floral used such high-quality plants, my sunflower and greenery centerpieces lasted almost 3 full weeks after the wedding. My greenery bouquet of ferns and eucalyptus is still beautiful and I will be drying it out to preserve it forever! If you're looking for a great deal on amazing flowers/plants and easy, kind, and accommodating service to match, I cannot recommend Willow Floral Studios more. Thank you again to the whole team!

I absolutely loved working with Arnold's Flower Shop for our wedding in Ithaca, and highly…read morerecommend them! Before planning my own wedding, I always recognized how important flowers were to the aesthetic of weddings I attended, but did not have experience with how to actually make that a reality for my own wedding. Anastacia put together our order, walked through my "inspiration" photos in detail, and thoughtfully explained options for consideration. She was incredibly detail-oriented, and the event order she put together for us actually listed every individual flower that would be included in each centerpiece and bouquet. As more of a "type-A" personality myself, this gave me peace of mind about exactly what to expect... and the final products looked even better than I could have anticipated! I'd also note that we had to change venues for our wedding very last minute - from an indoor to an outdoor setting. Anastacia was a professional, calming, and flexible presence throughout it. With just a few weeks to go, she adjusted our order to include a beautiful arch, bud vases for cocktail hour, and more. Thank you SO much to Arnold's for making our wedding what it was!

Frustrating when you're ordering from 2k miles away and your mother lives 2 blocks down the street from their shop. *sigh* It's just that I know they are capable of so much better... the hanging basket i ordered this year is very leggy, very little blooms, many dead blooms and looks incredibly neglected. Walmart has better hanging baskets than what she received this year. Extremely disappointing after last years stunner they delivered. *sigh*
