    I recently participated in Georgie Lou's Retro Candy's 6th Annual Sweetheart Stroll, and while this…read moremay have been their sixth time hosting it, it was my first time even hearing about it. I immediately corrected that mistake by buying a ticket the moment I saw the event posted--and then started counting down the days. The concept alone sold me: a ticketed, adults-focused stroll through downtown Carlisle, with participating small businesses offering tastings, experiences, treats, and deals. Sweethearts of all kinds were welcome--couples, besties, gal pals--and dressing in red and pink for Valentine's vibes was strongly encouraged. Say less. Ticketing was super easy, and Georgie Lou's did a fantastic job with pre-event communication, especially via social media. One post in particular deserves a shout-out: a reminder to bring a bag to carry your treats. This is something I absolutely would not have thought about until I was awkwardly shoving sweet treats into my coat pockets. I came prepared with a small reusable shopping bag (pink, obviously), and by the end of the stroll it was completely full of sweets, trinkets, and purchases. Meanwhile, others were struggling with overflowing pockets alongside gloves, hats, maps, and life regrets. Lesson learned. Excellent advice! I found parking around 1pm and headed to Georgie Lou's to check in and grab my materials. The staff were incredibly friendly, checked my name off the list, and sent me on my way with a Map of Hearts, a button identifying me as an official 2026 Sweetheart Stroller, and a small sweet treat to kick things off. I also took some time to explore the shop itself--my first visit--and wow! They have managed to pack an impressive amount of nostalgic goodness into a small space. Total blasts from the past, plus candies I'd never seen before. Super fun shop! From there, the stroll itself was a delight. Georgie Lou's clearly put a lot of care into coordinating participating businesses, and it showed. Most spots offered sweet treats, discounts, or special offerings, but every single business was warm, welcoming, and happy to have folks stopping in. Even though I've done a few downtown Carlisle walk-style events before, I still discovered shops I'd never been in--and every purchase I made that day was from a place I was visiting for the first time. That alone feels like a win. Overall, this was a fantastic way to spend a few hours on a very chilly January Saturday. It got me out of the house, walking downtown, supporting local businesses, and discovering gems I usually zoom past while driving from Point A to Point B. I had such a great time that I jokingly asked if I could pre-register for next year... apparently that's "not a thing yet." Fine. I'll wait. :) This has officially been added to my annual tradition list. Great event, great execution, great vibes. Well done, Georgie Lou's!

    Great nostalgic candy shop...lots of unique inventory! Definitely a great gift spot for people of…read moreall ages.

    If I could give zero stars I would. First, the flowers weren't even delivered on the day I…read morerequested, which was my step mom's birthday - kind of important. When I called the next day, I was told by Georges' that they don't deliver to Shermans Dale so they had contacted a local florist and relayed information about what the arrangement was to look like. They also told me that they had called the alternate number I provided (my father's number) and received some sort of message about the phone number not taking calls. This was a total lie. I spoke with my father and he had NO calls from anyone about flowers. No one bothered to call me to let me know they didn't deliver the flowers on the correct day. Why didn't they just deliver the flowers? It wasn't until I had called the following day after the flowers were supposed to be delivered that I found any of this out, and then suddenly they were able to make immediate contact with my father (no mysterious phone "not taking calls" message anymore) and the flowers were delivered. What was delivered looked NOTHING like what I ordered. I am extremely disappointed and will never use Georges' Flowers again. I've posted two pictures - one of what I ordered, and the other is what was delivered (not even close). If I wanted a plain arrangement, that's what I would have ordered.

    My brother proposed to his girlfriend last night, so today I ordered a bouquet for my new…read moresoon-to-be sister-in-law, who lives in Carlisle. I live in Phoenix, and was ordering by phone. I asked for a "celebratory" bouquet, but otherwise left it up to them to design it. The bouquet was delivered within 2 hours of ordering. It was beautiful, it got to the right office, and the message was accurate. The happy fiancee was very touched and I was very pleased with the service.
