She was very nice and helped me with what my problem was instead of throwing her arms up in the air and walking away from me.

The flowers appeared as though they were flowers that were on their last leg and would soon end up in the trash. Not only that but the arrangement was not done well.

We have owned 3 flower shops over the past 30+ years and this is not acceptable. The small vase delivered is not comparable to the $85 arrangement I paid for. I expected better for a local florist.

This was a smaller order for them but they were happy to help. I sent a couple of emails with pictures to give them an idea of what I was looking for and they nailed it. The wedding was held two hours away from them but luckily they coordinated with my photographer (who lived in their area) for her to deliver the flowers. I was originally going to put together my own bouquets but so glad I spent the money. They were very reasonable and the quality was amazing. My bridal bouquet was so beautiful, I didn't want to put it down! I would highly recommend The Proper Petal for your future floral needs!

I heard from guest after guest after guest that our flowers were the most beautiful flowers they had ever seen at a wedding. My mother was so pleased with Kristen & Sarah's work she wanted to take every flower back home to Massachusetts with her after the wedding. Kristen and Sarah covered the spectrum. My bouquet was remarkable, they put together gorgeous arrangements for our rehearsal dinner & wedding, and they even decorated barn doors we made that were supposed to be on the lawn for our reception. Unfortunately by mid afternoon the forecast was looking terrible, and they rearranged the flowers and greenery inside the tent and created another masterpiece. I have never seen anything more spectacular! They were so easy to work with and super responsive. I highly recommend them for all your floral needs!

The flowers from River City Flower Exchange are locally and ethically grown in Virginia! I highly recommend stopping by this beautiful flower and gift shop.

They have a decent but not overwhelming selection of annuals, perennials, trees, shrubs, herbs and vegetables. I have found their prices to be slightly higher than the big box stores, but to support a local, family business, I'm okay with that. For example, four pack annuals at Strange's are $1.79. At Azalea, they're like $2.49. Friendly service. Located in the old Azalea Shopping Center parking lot.

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.
