Q: Can I order more/less than what is listed on the website?
Sadly, we do not provide smaller flower bundles than those that are shown on our website. To ensure that the flowers arrive correctly and are not jostled during travel, each of our flower boxes is specifically made to hold a certain number of flowers. The flowers would shift during transit and/or sustain bruises or damage if we packed them loosely or tightly.
Q: Can I cancel my order?
Why the cost? Due to the fact that we are charged a 4 percent credit card fee each time a card is charged, we are required to impose a 25 percent cancellation fee. As a result, we pay 4 percent of the entire transaction when processing the order and an extra 4 percent when processing the refund. Then there is a fee per transaction. Additionally, it takes around 2 hours to process a cancellation request between the time of our accounting department and a customer service person, which is translated into labor costs.
Q: I have been charged twice. Can I get a refund?
Most likely, you weren’t charged twice. When someone is experiencing trouble placing an order, they frequently re-enter their information. These “problem” orders raise a red signal for us, and we refuse to process them until we’ve called you to resolve the issue. However, the payment process is automatically started for all fresh orders. This indicates that all orders will show up as “Pending Transactions” on your credit card.
These costs are “held” on your credit card, but they won’t be taken off until we confirm the order as confirmed. Charges for confirmed orders are applied at the end of every business day. Any outstanding transactions have now been released from all banks. Depending on your bank’s standards, this sum should reappear on your card within 24 hours.
Q: How do I make changes to my order?
Within 7 days of the delivery date, you must submit any requests to modify an existing order. Several days before the delivery date, many of our products are frequently processed for their voyage from Ecuador, South America, or Europe. Changes cannot be made once the product has shipped.
Q: How do I place my order?
Our website is the finest spot to place your order. In this manner, we get your data exactly as you enter it.
We do accept phone, chat, and email orders, though, if you need assistance placing your order.
Q: Do you offer samples?
There are several ways to order samples even though we don’t offer samples because sending lesser quantities in a box could result in damage. We advise placing a small flower order for an earlier occasion, like a wedding shower or birthday party. This also enables you to practice using the flowers. A lot of the popular flowers we offer, including roses, garden roses, hydrangeas, and carnations, are sold in packs of 20 to 50 stems. You can also purchase a sample centerpiece because we provide several centerpieces and gift arrangements in limited quantities, sometimes even just one.
Q: Do you make arrangements?
We currently provide various lovely bouquets that can be delivered in a box to the recipient with the choice of a vase. Our bouquets are wrapped so that the recipient only needs to take them out of the box, recut the stems, and put them in a vase with fresh water because they are prepared fresh at the farm.
Please pick the Arrangements link in the left-hand column of our webpage to view our variety of arrangements. Additionally, we provide already-made wedding table centerpieces! Please click on Wedding Flowers and then Centerpieces to view our assortment.
Q: How do I pay for my flowers?
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover are just a few of the widely used credit cards that we accept. All credit cards and check cards with the logos of these companies will be accepted by our system. PayPal is another payment option we accept. We do not accept COD or POs because we ship overseas.
Q: How do I order Flowers?
In the Main menu on the left side of the website, locate the flowers you desire. A smart place to start is with the best sellers. You can shop for flowers based on flower color, flower kind, and already-made arrangements. When you’ve located the flowers you want, choose the quantity and shipping date by clicking on a free date on the calendar. Add then to cart.
Q: How long will items stay in my cart?
15 days will pass while your cart is saved. We advise adding items to “my favorites,” which will be preserved indefinitely as long as you are logged into your account, if you want to keep them for a longer period of time. By going to Review Cart and selecting Save This Cart, all goods will be put automatically to “My Favorites,” making the process simple. By clicking on the heart icon next to each item, you may also add items directly to “My Favorites.”
Q: Do I need to keep my flowers in a refrigerator?
Since the flowers could be harmed if the refrigerator’s temperature fluctuated, we advise against refrigerating the flowers. Special care has been taken to prepare our flowers for room temperature. We advise keeping your flowers’ watering area cold, dry, and out of direct sunshine, like a basement or an air-conditioned room with the blinds drawn. However, if you decide to put the flowers in the fridge, make sure to take out all the fruits and vegetables first. Fruits and vegetables release fumes that could harm your flowers.
For a bouquet, how many hydrangea stems are needed?
How many flowers do I need to order? is one of the most commonly requested and crucial questions we get at Blooms By The Box from DIYers. Why is it so crucial? For your project, you don’t want to run out of flowers, but who wants to order too much and spend money foolishly? In order to assist you attain flower perfection, Blooms By The Box has developed these guidelines and a flower amount table. So much of flower arrangement is an approximation.
Let’s start with the blooms that are most noticeable. Remember that larger blooms require more room, reducing the amount you can purchase. This is frequently a fantastic technique to make arrangements look complete while also saving money.
Recently, hydrangea was highlighted in a Weddingbells article. Blooms By The Box is very smitten with this fashion! The article also includes images of rose and peony bouquets, which we shall talk about next. These “Monobotanical bouquets” are not only stunning, but they also ideally suit our DIY brides! Just take a look at this affordable yet stylish blue hydrangea arrangement from Sugar and Art that photographer Katie Stoops photographed so well.
So how much hydrangea should you use for a bouquet or arrangement? Use two or three stems for a compact arrangement. Increase the dosage to 4-5 stems if the medium is as shown in the image. You should use 6–8 stems for a sizable bouquet.
This size of bridal bouquet would require 10 to 12 peonies. Medium bouquets of 6–8 stems could be carried by bridesmaids, and you might choose to give your flower girl a smaller bouquet of 3–4 stems. You can always change these amounts to suit your personal preferences. Remember to eat your greens!
Will peonies be out of season or too pricey for your wedding’s budget during that time? Fear not—we have the ideal replacement—garden roses! Their petals are round and slightly puffy, and they have the same bloom. Even during the peony season (November through July), garden roses have a romantic, elegant air. They are available in a lot more hues as well.
These garden roses are a cheerful and summery option for any bridal bouquet. They were featured on Style Me Pretty and captured by Carla Ten Eyck Photography. Use 10–12 garden roses to create a huge bouquet similar to this one. A medium arrangement would contain 8 to 9 blooms, while a small bouquet would contain 3 to 4 garden roses.
How many bouquets of flowers are there?
What constitutes a bunch? If you work in the floral industry, you are aware that wholesalers sell flowers in bunches rather than stems. For those who are just starting their careers, this may be unclear. Why am I unable to purchase a few stems, you may inquire? I don’t need a lot of them! We at Main Wholesale Florist wish to address all of your inquiries, even those that experts frequently take for granted.
A bunch is a bundled-together assortment of stems. Flowers are typically wrapped together in cellophane or tied together with rubber bands when they are sent to wholesale florists from their growers. For this reason, you can purchase flowers from wholesalers in bunches. The majority of flowers are sold in bunches of 10 stems. The most typical standard quantity is this one. There are, of course, always exceptions to every rule. For instance, bunches of 25 stems of roses and carnations are what are sold and packaged. Also contained in grower’s bunches is baby’s breath. According to the grower they come from, they are tied together by weight and packaged in bunches of 8–13 stems. Chrysanthemum bunches typically contain 7 stems. Knowing these details will help you be ready to refill your stores’ stock when the time comes.
