Hi all,
Can anyone help me, I am wondering what flowers4florsits are like to deal with. Are they reliable on deliveries and quality. I am a freelance wedding florist and I was thinking of trying them, but I am worried in case the delivery is late. "When I need flowers I need flowers".

Hi Carly

We have used them occasionally and they are very reliable. They deliver through DHL and the flowers are well packed for transportation. Their prices are quite good too!!!

Have to agree, they are rather dear, although they do give a good service otherwise. We find our regular DMs are far cheaper..

Hi Carley

Yes I did think that the foliage was a little more expensive but on the whole if you want good flowers for a wedding then you have to pay for the best.

Hi Lilylady,

I must say I have to agree with you on that, If I could guarantee good flowers i would be one less thing to worry about.

thanks for your help.
Carley
