I live in Hawaii and wanted to send my best friend birthday flowers. I am not familiar with any florists in this area but I am SO happy and thrilled with Lawrence the Florist. I ordered tulips and they exceeded my expectations. They eased my worries when I called to check on the order and sent me a photo via text message. They delivered SO FAST on the same day I ordered it. Thank you, thank you!! I will use this florist in the future as well! read more

Lawrence The Florist - Tulips from Lawrence the Florist - Florists Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

They didn't deliver for my birthday party that I paid $1300 for 10 arrangements. Below are the ones I ordered, and what was delivered was red flowers. See below. When I called on Monday all I wanted was for PK the owner to be honest that this wasn't what was ordered and agreed upon. Went to his shop 2 to 3 times, sent pictures, and then he sends all 10 arrangements with wrong flowers. Then gave me dead flowers for cake, and asked him to bring over fresh flowers for cake and he didn't. He's not an honest person. For 1300 I think he switched to a cheaper flower to put in the arrangements. If you are having a wedding, and/or something special, don't rely on PK and his place. It is clear he doesn't care about his customers because then he tried to tell me he only charged me $750! No it's on my AMEX - 1300 because we agree to $100 per x 10 = 1K! So what really upset me and why I am doing this is because he isn't honest at all, and doesn't care about his customers. Gave them plenty of time - tipped everyone and still this guy lied. So I hope the $1300 was worth it because you did a bait and switch on me. I do not want this to happen to anyone else. Didn't even ask for money back and still, he could not be honest. I am not blind these are not the same colors PK. Good luck in your business. read more

My stop at Lawrence, the florist, was purely by accident. GPS had taken me to the wrong Total wine store, so after scoring the wine I needed to take to dinner, I had to find the closest florist. That was Lawrence, the florist. Walking in the day after Valentine's Day, looking for flowers is dangerous. No doubt they had been hit with mayhem the day before. The gentleman who helped me was incredibly friendly and asked me what I was looking for if I had a budget number in mind, and I answered all of his questions. He sprung into action, pulling things together from all over the store, picking up the very best of the best he had, and creating a beautiful bouquet that came in under my budget number. The hostess was extremely pleased when I handed her the bouquet, and I was happy with the results. I highly recommend Lawrence, the florist. read more

They did not deliver the bouquet that I ordered on an important day even though the order was placed with ample lead time.

I have ordered flowers from them multiple times and have always been extremely happy with the delivery!

Excellent service! I had a delivery to a difficult address. Lawrence the Florist went above and beyond. Called me to confirm and seek better directions, and totally came through. Also beautiful floral arrangement and gift basket. Very happy with the goods and the service! read more

Maybe, like me, you're a long time customer of this place. It's always been solid and reliable, and I wrote a review saying so. Well, those days are gone. I have a feeing it's been sold, and the new owner is, shall we say, less than competent. The shop has been relocated inside the Elements apartment building in downtown Bellevue. When you call, you get a guy who is not actually in the shop. He just takes orders on the phone or web site and relays instructions to the one person in the shop. Only he didn't. An order that I placed on the phone at 2:00, and was supposed to be ready at 4:00 was never even created. That's because the phone guy forgot to actually tell the person in the shop to create the order. Imagine my unpleasant surprise when I arrived to pick up my mom's 94th birthday floral display, and it had never even been made. This place is a poor cartoon of its former self. They couldn't even do a proper refund, and ended up just giving me a handful of cash out of the drawer and a hastily written check. I now officially retract my previous glowing review from 4 years ago. Lawrence The Florist is now a forgetful phone guy and a bad example of customer service. read more

I wanted to order flowers and they didn't have anything that their website offered. Finally decided on flowers they could make at a considerably higher price than advertised. Claimed to deliver at 5:17 and didn't deliver until 2 hours later and after I called. Swore they would call me back and never did. Lots of florists in Bellevue and I won't use you again. read more

My boyfriend picked me up flowers from here and they were not great. $100+ for a bouquet of mostly foliage and a handful of flowers very poorly put together. It's for Valentine's Day... why would you wrap it in dark green with a bow that looks awful with it. I'm mad that he spent this much on the bouquet when he could've gotten a better one from Trader Joe's for a fraction of the price. A hot mess... I'm not usually this critical towards flowers since I love getting them but this is bad. If you're gonna charge that much for a bouquet at least make it look better than what he could get at Safeway. read more

My second day after surgery and in comes a huge basket of the most beautiful white flowers that lasted two+ weeks! They went with me to rehab and the nurses and visitors were also "wowed" by them. Then they came home with me and I enjoyed the arrangement right up to the last blossom!! The arrangement was done very well and I send kudos to Lawrence for his skill and choice of blooms. Nicely done! read more

I've gotten the most beautiful arrangements and wreaths from this florist. To get the most bang for your buck, choose your price and opt for a Designers Choice arrangement. If you visit in person you can see what's fresh and give some preferences, but I also like leaving it up to the designer. I asked for a few modifications on my last bouquet and they were super accommodating and swapped out a few stems and it was perfect. The designers here have a great eye and it's always a fun surprise to see what they come up with. read more

I've received beautiful gifts of flowers from Laurence the Florist for years. Their flowers and arrangements are stunning, and their delivery is great too. I've always been delighted with the flowers from them! read more

My husband has gifted me two bouquets in the past month. One for reopening my small business and one recently for my birthday. I am absolutely mind blown at how incredibly beautiful they are. Both bouquets are so exotic and creatively unique with beautiful vases. I've said to him "these arrangements must have cost you hundreds of dollars, babe!" Whatever they cost, they're worth every penny! I never thought I'd write a review for a florist, but I had to let others know how unreal this shop is. I'll never let him order flowers elsewhere! Thank you for your talented shop- providing the best bouquets I've ever imagined and making our days a little brighter. read more

In the prior ten years or so, I'd received flowers from Lawrence several times and was very pleased. However, this Christmas 2022 season, I received a spray which was virtually DOA. The base (ceramic or clay) was proportionally tiny compared to the gargantuan spray of evergreen, red roses and carnations, and painted and glittered pinecones and berries. The idea and the components were stunning, but the execution was sloppy, and the carnations were, on arrival, black around the edges. Further and most egregious was the fact that there was only a very small 'SPONGE' base, not wrapped in plastic, into which all the stems were haphazardly stuck. Upon arrival, the sponge base was more or less dry. Evidently, in the rush of the season, Lawrence the proprietor took on more business than his limited staff of florists could handle. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE BUSINESS. SAD THAT THIS PROBABLY COST MY SENDER MUCH MORE THAN ITS EXECUTED PUSILLANIMOUS, CARELESS, AND SLOPPY MESSAGE conveyed. Sad. read more

Five star review #14. They are wonderful. I had a vision for what I wanted my arrangement to look like, and they worked with me to make sure I had exactly what I described. In fact, I'd go so far as to say they EXCEEDED my expectations (no small feat). Furthermore, I needed them to make a delivery, out of their normal area, in a very specific time window and they made it happen. Yes, they are expensive, but their level of service and quality of flowers totally justifies the high price; unequivocally, without doubt. I will personally continue to use this shop exclusively for all my floral needs. Additionally, I will HIGHLY recommend Lawrence the Florist to all my friends who are in the market for stunning flowers/arrangements. read more

Lawrence the Flores's to the rescue!! The friendly crew at this east side florist helped assemble a last second wrist cordage for my son's Winter Ball date...in under an hour from my phone call to picking up their excellently crafted corsage. Easy to work with, happy to accommodate a quick need. A- PLUS PLUS!! Btw, read a few reviewers commenting negatively about the price. Even with the rushed order, they came in comparable to other shops, with less of a drive and easier parking. read more

Rarely do I write reviews; however, my experience with Lawrence the Florist was outstanding. I had occasion to send flowers during the pandemic. It was then that I learned that it was best to locate a local florist in the area of the recipient as opposed to using an "800" (i.e., Teleflora). The net profit for the local florist was minimal using "800" agents. While it was a little more labor intensive, I found that contacting a local florist gave it a more personal touch. That was how I "discovered" Lawrence the Florist. My most recent order was a "no brainer" as a returning customer since the number is now saved in my phone!!! I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Marvin and Jaya, and most importantly, I have been highly impressed by their friendly professionalism and their outstanding artistry. The recipients of their presentations have been overwhelmingly "WOWed" (in their words). Needless to say, I highly recommend Lawrence the Florist!!!! read more

I've purchased flowers both times here and they were absolutely stunning! The yellow friendship flowers made the girl of my dreams super happy! Thanks Lawrence The Florist!! I'll always buy flowers here. read more

I ordered a deluxe arrangement for my friends birthday. While the flowers were delivered on time, the arrangement was VERY different and disappointing compared to the one I had ordered. I understand flowers may need to be substituted, however, this is a completely different arrangement. read more

I swung by to find a quick and lovely arrangement as a going away gift for one of my colleagues. And boy was I glad I Yelped a florist before heading in. What I absolutely loved about this flower shop is that their staff are PASSIONATE about plants and flowers. You really know what someone loves what they do when they share their products with such enthusiasm and little anecdotes on the products you wouldn't even fathom. Needless to say, I left with a beautiful pre-arranged desk bouquet for my coworker. read more

LTF is simply the best. I had ordered a bouquet for my girlfriend a few months ago which was absolutely gorgeous and we both loved. My most recent experience with LTF is what truly blew me out of the water though. Even though I was past the normal cutoff time for same day delivery online, I gave them a call to see if I could order another bouquet last minute and was so impressed by the customer service. They already had the address to send to and my card on file from last time, and I was able to place the order seamlessly and have the beautiful flowers delivered to her only a few hours later. I can't see myself ever going to another florist on the Eastside. Excellent customer service, high quality flowers in gorgeous arrangements, I couldn't ask for anything better. Thank you so much LTF. read more

Lawrence The Florist - We ordered 3 of these. What a great bang for buck! - Florists Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Ordered garlands that were so simple. Pai almost 200. They wilted within an hour. $200 for a very poorly put-together garland. I could have made way better ones myself for a fraction of the cost. Way overpriced and it looked really cheap!! Do not order anything from here until you see pictures of what you are getting! Otherwise you will be in for a very unpleasant experience. read more

I received these flowers today. I know that the sender sends several bouquets as a holiday gift. I was shocked to see that the cuts on the greenery were placed right in the front. This picture is just one of several cuts. When you look at the arrangement it is the first thing you notice. Last year I also received flowers via the same florist. They were well on their way to dying within a day (although I added water right away and daily ) when I called they were reluctant to replace them. I would not recommend Lawrence The Florist. read more

Lawrence The Florist - Wedding flower arrangement. - Florists Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

This used to be the top florist in Bellevue. Clearly the ownership changed at some point because the quality has gone way down hill. I ordered a gardenia to remember the 2 year anniversary of my moms passing. It was her favorite flower. I ordered it on Tuesday for pick up Friday. Wednesday they called wanting to know when I was going to pick it up because other people wanted it. I thought that was pretty rude and reminded them that I would be picking it up on Friday. They called me Thursday and asked again! Now they are harassing me and I'm pissed. I picked it up on Friday. After all of this BS I am at least assuming that they had done their due diligence and had attached a little water tube to it to keep it fresh. As I'm driving home I notice that little brown spots are appearing all over it. I look under the flower and no tube. This is what it looked like when I got home. What was supposed to be a special memorium to my mom is crap read more

A+ for the expedience, delivery and presentation. However, I was very disappointed with the size of the "premium" selection of the bouquet- it was very small. For the price I am paying for premium I would expect it not to look like the "standard" size. read more

My husband sent me a bouquet of flowers from Lawrence the Florist to my office for our first wedding anniversary. He selected them because they were the closest to my office building. I don't know how much he paid for these, but whatever it was, it was worth it! The bouquet was gorgeous, tucked into a pink vase. (See my uploaded photo.) Half of the flowers were fully bloomed and the other half were not quite budded yet--I like this because you can keep the flower arrangement around longer and watch the other flowers bloom. The flowers were carefully arranged using floral tape that you can't even see, and the heart wreath atop the entire arrangement. My husband told me that he saw this arrangement on the website, but with tulips. The florist said that was intended as a Valentine's Day arrangement and that tulips are out of season, but that they would improvise with other flowers. They went out of their way for my husband to make a gorgeous arrangement! I would highly recommend them above the standard floral delivery such as FTD. I could tell this was made with care and a personal touch. read more

I wrote these guys a review on Insider pages a while back but given the lack of reviews I thought I'd post here as well. Bottom line is that these guys are great. I needed some flowers delivered next day to a client and had 5 minutes between meetings. A friend recommended them so I called and gave them my budget, credit card and explained the situation and asked them to do the best they could. The next day the client (recovering from surgery) received my flowers and said it was a beautiful display... flash forward almost 2 weeks later and they were still alive and well! I trust the client that the flowers and arrangement were nice quality , but what impressed me the most was the ability to get it done so quickly and be able to trust that the arrangement would be done right. Will definitely use Lawrence the florist next time I need flowers! read more

My expectations were exceeded and more! With short notice, Lawrence made three stunning and unique bouquets. They are so beautiful and fragrant, our whole department still smells like fresh flowers. I will absolutely be returning and recommending Lawrence to anyone and everyone. read more

I ordered an expensive arrangement (using their website) to be delivered to a friend for her birthday. I specifically asked for them to call my friend before the delivery to book a time. She never received the flowers. Or the call. I called and they said they called her, she came down and got the flowers, they knew that building well, etc. There is no sign they went. There was no phone call made because the phone record on her side does not show they called. I called them to report it, and they were very defensive, said they delivered it, made no offer to correct the problem and then, did not answer the phone when I called back again. There is no reliable phone messaging system, no way to email (it is a "donotreply") and so, there you have it. I don't live in Bellevue, or I'd have driven there. I cannot cancel the credit card now because it has been processed. My friend and her husband would have remembered if someone had delivered flowers on her birthday. The person I spoke with was so dismissive. I will not use them again. If you order from them get the phone number that you can call and actually have someone pick UP. If they post some rebuttal, the fact remains they did everything I just wrote. I am going to have to file a complaint with teleflora since it looks like they handle the online stuff for them. Maybe you should order by calling the store- if they'll pick up. Your choice. read more

For decades, they were our #1 go-to florist. We are longtime Bellevue residents, and have been loyal customers. Now...they are off the list. Like another reviewer, I waited until the third ho-hum delivery before writing something. Every business can have bad days, but this bouquet was the 3rd bad delivery. Trader Joe's had a better looking bouquet that same day for $8.95 and so did the QFC. BTW: Carnations aren't considered acceptable flowers anymore. What happened?? read more

Today was the day when I had to switch to a different florist company. For 15 years I've used LTF for sending flowers to family and friends and coworkers. Then business was sold and I stuck around, as change is good too. I guess I miss a lot the previous warm and detailed approach on placing the orders via phone. After struggling a little for the last three orders, including today, I had to switch to a different company that was quick, easy, the whole discussion of an arrangement took less then 6 min. Today with LTF we struggled to get through the order for 15 min plus ... sorry I could not wait or converse longer. Sorry to say Goodbye today. read more
