I live out-of-state and didn't go with 1-800-Flowers because you never know what florist they will choose. Debbie's has great Yelp reviews so I picked an arrangement right off their website site. I placed the order on Monday (Memorial Day) and since it was a holiday, so even though they offer next day delivery, I requested Wednesday delivery so I wouldn't get stuck with the leftovers. They made a delivery. That's the only positive thing I have to say. I asked my sister to send me a picture of what she received. Frankly, I'm embarrassed. And livid. Before the $17 delivery fee to go to Lowell or the $5 web fees and taxes, I paid $60 for the flowers and vase. What she got was greenery with a couple carnations, a white rose that had seen better days, and some sad-looking droopy lavender flowers in a dollar store vase. What if I had not done the $10 upgrade? Would she have gotten just some greens? Keep in mind, people take pictures of the "good" side of arrangements. So how bad is the back side? I should have asked one of her neighbor kids to get a $10 bouquet from Stracks and paid him the $17 to deliver it. I tried to call Debbie's directly at 4pm eastern time and got the vacation message that they would be back on the 27th, which was today so they can't even make sure their voicemail messages are accurate. What a joke! Maybe they do a better job when you are picking up an order and they have to see your face. I'd give no star if Yelp allowed it.

I ordered flowers today from Debbie's Designs Florist & Gifts for a friend, and I couldn't be…read morehappier with the experience. I was a bit nervous ordering online as someone not local since I've been burned before, but this was truly FANTASTIC from start to finish. They had a great selection to choose from, and the bouquet I ordered--the Botanical Beauty Bouquet (Premium), looked exactly like the photo when it was delivered. That alone was impressive. What really set them apart, though, was their thoughtfulness. They asked for the recipient's phone number so they could confirm she would be home to receive the flowers, especially with the storms today. This is such a smart and customer‑focused policy. Far too many times, flowers are left on a porch in extreme heat or cold, which completely defeats the purpose. Debbie's Designs clearly cares about ensuring the recipient gets a beautiful, fresh arrangement in perfect condition. Bravo to the team! I don't live in the Crown Point area, but I will absolutely order from them again anytime I need to send flowers there.

The roses were fragrant, beautiful and huge. They lasted until January 19th, and I enjoyed them every minute! Frankly, I was impressed with the size and overall arrangement of the flowers. Family and friends who contacted me via FaceTime to express birthday wishes also loved the beautiful roses. I hope to receive more flowers from Merrillville Florist and Tea Room in the future.

Flowers were scheduled to deliver Monday, now it's Wednesday and the flowers still haven't arrived. When I called, the incompetent man on the phone said that "the recipients didn't answer the phone and they won't deliver the flowers unless if they answer the phone because sometimes people go out of town" My friend just lost a family member, I'm sure she isn't answering random phone calls from number she doesn't know, also I PAID FOR THE FLOWERS TO BE DELIVR D ON MONDAY???? I don't care if they didn't answer the phone?? They weren't the ones who ordered the flowers. I am extremely upset and distraught and very very pissed off. HIGHLY HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HORRIBLE FLOWER SHOP THAT DOESNT OPERATE LIKE ANY OTHER FLOWER SHOP OM THR PLANET APPARENTLY. VERY RUDE EMPLOYEES AND SEEMINGLY INCOMPETENT.
