Ordering flowers is not a fast-food situation and that is a good thing. When you order from a real, local florist, there is a carefully coordinated process happening behind the scenes to make sure your flowers arrive fresh, beautiful, and on time.
Here is exactly how our flower delivery in and around Valparaiso works, step by step.
Step 1: Place Your Order
You may place your order with us in three ways:
- Online through our website
- In person at our shop
- By phone with our team
- We do not accept wire-service orders.
- We do not fulfill orders from national order gatherers.
- We are not a middleman for third-party flower orders.
When you order from us, your flowers are designed here by our team for your recipient.
Step 2: We Select the Best Blooms
Once your order is received, our team reviews it and selects the freshest, highest-quality blooms available in our cooler. This allows us to design with what is seasonally at its best and ensures every arrangement meets our quality standards.
Step 3: Our Designers Create Your Arrangement
Our professional floral designers craft each arrangement by hand. Every piece is created to reflect the style, occasion, and size you selected.
No mass production. No shortcuts. Just thoughtful floral design.
Step 4: We Prepare for Pickup or Delivery
When your arrangement is complete, it is carefully prepared for either in-store pickup or local delivery.
If you provide an email address, you will automatically receive the following notifications:
- Order confirmation
- Out for delivery notice
- Delivery confirmation
This system keeps you informed every step of the way.
Step 5: Our Delivery Team Brings It to the Door
Our delivery drivers work directly for us. We do not use third-party delivery services.
Because of the Northwest Indiana climate, we do not leave fresh floral deliveries unattended if weather conditions are unsafe. Extreme cold or heat can quickly damage flowers.
If the recipient is not available to receive the flowers, we contact them directly to coordinate the safest and most appropriate delivery time.
Step 6: Delivery Confirmation
Once the flowers have been successfully delivered - whether to a residence, business, hospital, church, or funeral home, a final confirmation email is sent to you if an email address was provided.
The Result: A Better Customer Experience
Our process is designed to be efficient, reliable, and focused on quality. Automation allows our team to spend more time where it matters most: creating beautiful floral designs and delivering them with care to you and your loved ones.
