"Thank you so much for the divine flowers you arranged and delivered for us today.  I'm passionate about flowers and frightfully particular, this combined with living in regional NSW can sometimes make sending flowers a little difficult.   Details sometimes get lost in  the translation! Alan has just sent a photo of the flowers, I'm over the moon.  I could not have chosen flowers more beautiful  and their presentation was just perfect. Thank you, again" - Gail

"Hey - I wanted to thank you for your service between Christmas and New Year.  I needed to send flowers to a friend in Geelong.  Many of the florists were closed (I get it - it has been a big year).  I found you!  My friend was so excited.  The arrangement was beautiful and more importantly it lasted for weeks - amazing given the heat we were having.   You are now my go-to florist in Geelong!   I wish I lived in your delivery area - I would take advantage of your Friday bunch every week.  Keep doing what you are doing - you make the world a better place.  Thank you!" - Mary

"I rang yesterday keen to get some flowers to my mum who just lost her fur baby. The lady on the phone (sorry her name escapes me) was wonderful! She helped write the right words on the card and really listened as I described what Mum liked and didn’t like.  Well Mum called me today absolutely overwhelmed by the beauty of her flowers. She said it was (genuinely) the most beautiful bunch of flowers she has ever received. And she is 70 so that’s a big statement! Why? Because *every* single flower and berry in the bouquet she could name and loves.  You guys nailed it and I’m so grateful! Thank you for turning an awful time for my mum into a little bit of simple pleasure!  Warm wishes" - Sam

“Thank you all for the wonderful effort that you made at such very short notice for us to provide a beautiful arrangement for Maggie Beer.  We are most appreciative.  Apparently, according to the owner of the apartments, Maggie was overwhelmed with them and thought the arrangement was absolutely beautiful (apparently almost teary with appreciation at their beauty).   Maggie made a special effort to thank me for organising the flowers for her  and said they were superb.  I don’t doubt you did a fabulous job tailored beautifully to her personality etc.” – Sue

Thank you” – Tammy

“We could not have been happier with how everything came together for our wedding, you truly are so talented and your ideas were everything I had imagined and more. Walking into the reception, the table arrangements took my breath away and I was so pleased with how understated and beautiful the cake and wishing well were dressed.  The large arrangement was perfect for the space and our guests were thrilled to be able to take the table arrangements with them to brighten up their hotel rooms and to remember the wonderful event that it was.

The bouquet complimented my dress perfectly and the ribbons were just as I hoped for, long and flowy, we all agreed to leave them exactly how they were.

We honestly cannot thank you and your team enough, we have so many wonderful memories from our magical day and there was honestly nothing I would have changed, please know that your contribution to our wedding day will long be remembered.” – Amelia
