I had to check out the website and there were so many choices to choose from but I chose an arrangement that had Lillies (my favorite flower) mixed with Roses since that's grandma's favorite. Since I'm all the way in California, I made sure to call the shop to confirm my order and would also like to see the bouquet before the delivery. The lady I spoke with took my number down and sent me a peek of the arrangement, and it was perfect . I definitely would recommend this shop to anyone who is looking to get flowers for friends/family. And mostly definitely I will be a return customer as well. Thank you for making my grandmother's day today. Your flowers had my grandma in tears

As a bride who was not sure what she wanted for flowers, Annette was so helpful in asking questions, giving me examples, and helping me figure out what I liked and disliked for all of my arrangements. She also did this keeping my budget in mind, which I appreciated. So many vendors try to push you to spend more and I never had that feeling with Annette. She was flexible and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. Thank you so much Annette! I hope this review helps other brides make a great choice!

OMG... Ms. Mary is a PHENOMENAL woman and florist! I attempted to send my Aunt flowers for her…read moreretirement and the company I usually use was having delivery issues. I'm in the DMV area so I quickly did a Google search for a florist in Hopewell VA. The results posted and Sunshine Florist & Gifts was the second option (they also deliver). I called and the owner Ms. Mary answered the phone, I told her my dilemma (her shop is not open on weekends), I asked if I ordered today would she be able to deliver today since having them delivered on Sunday (my Aunt's retirement date) was not an option. Ms. Mary said "I can absolutely deliver an arrangement today, I will customize an arrangement for your Aunt's special occasion, I will also text you a picture before it goes out for delivery". Ms. Mary did and WOW! I am a customer for life! I know who to call when I need to send flowers to my family members in the Petersburg, Hopewell and Chester area. If you need anything floral... Ms. Mary will take care of you and she has the most delightful disposition.

I am extremely disappointed with our experience, especially because these flowers were ordered for…read moremy stepmother's funeral--an occasion where there is no opportunity to redo things afterward. We specifically ordered tall, clear glass vases and received short ceramic vases instead. We also specifically requested an all-white flower color scheme, and that is not what we received. Before the service, we expressed concerns about how everything was being handled and were assured that it would all turn out fine. Unfortunately, it did not. What was delivered was not what we ordered or expected for such an important and emotional occasion. We contacted the florist afterward to discuss the problems and give them an opportunity to address the situation. No one returned our call. That lack of response and accountability was especially upsetting considering this was for a funeral and the mistakes could not simply be corrected later. We understand that mistakes can happen. What we cannot understand is failing to communicate with a grieving family after those mistakes are brought to your attention. We paid for specific arrangements for my stepmother's funeral, did not receive what we ordered, and then received no follow-up when we tried to resolve it. I would strongly recommend that anyone ordering flowers for a funeral or other once-in-a-lifetime event make sure every detail of their order is documented and confirmed. Based on our experience, I absolutely do NOT recommend this florist.
