I remembered I needed to pick up some flowers for a birthday gift when I was out in Markham. I quickly looked up a few shops and Blooms was one of the few in the area that was open before 2pm. It looks like they have a backroom where they prepare most of the flowers. When I walked in, a doorbell chime went off and a staff member was quickly out to help me. I told her about my situation and she asked a lot of good questions like who the bouquet was for, what was their relation, if they had favourite colours or flowers, to help narrow down what the ideal arrangement would be. Next, she asked for my budget. Once I decided on an amount, I was rung up ahead of time. It is a little spooky to pay ahead of time without an idea of what you're getting but I was sort of in a pinch without any other options. She let me know that they'd need about 30-45 minutes to pick something up and that she'd give me a call when they were ready. They were done in about 40 minutes sand I received the call to come by. The bouquet was absolutely gorgeous! The front room has a refrigerated case with some flowers but I don't think that is there entire inventory because there was a huge variety of stems in my bouquet than I saw displayed. I can't describe how pretty it was with the assortment of lilies, roses, and greens that were in there. I was there for the unpacking of the flowers and the wrapping was expertly done. There were several layers of paper and they were matching with the flowers and very high quality with a nice texture. The flowers were really packed in water so they didn't wilt on their 3 hour journey around the GTA. They were also trimmed so there was nothing to do except put them in a vase and sit back to admire them! read more

My mom and I came to preorder and pick up a bouquet of flowers for my cousin for her birthday. Shop was small but open, and gave a nice sense of welcoming. We weren't too sure what kind of bouquet we wanted, so we just told the owner that we wanted something for a young lady for a birthday, with a fresher and summery feel. She knew exactly what to do and gave us an example of what she thought. Came to pick it up the next day and the bouquet was beautifully done and very full! It was about $60 and she gave us nice, straight-forward directions on what to do to keep the flowers until we gave them. Excellent service, quick and effective. Gave me a strong sense that they knew exactly what they were doing, and that they were good at what they do. Will be back in the future for any of my floral needs. read more

Marie was amazing helping me from the start to finish for my complete wedding floral. She gave me a bit of discount but her prices were definitely more reasonable than other places I received quotes from. Centerpieces were mostly roses in peach, pink, cream, peonies, some hydrangeas, and phalaenopsis orchids. I'm very detailed oriented and knew what I wanted before meeting Marie so I was very particular borderline nitpicky but Marie was very patient, met all my requests putting together my centerpiece. I paid $90 to have her create a sample of what my centerpiece would look like to ensure she understood my vision. It was 90% beautiful and we just tweaked it to the shape I wanted, more of a wider dome rather than circle ball like. The day of my wedding reception was beautiful, the flowers transformed the whole room very romanticly. It was a good investment of the florals and lots of beautiful memories were captured. I am so thankful and couldn't have found a better florist than Marie. Her whole team and herself arrived at the venue early to ensure the flowers were ready and setup was finished before way before the reception. We had endless compliments on the all the floral and I look forward to visiting her shop for all my future floral needs. read more

Reached out to blooms flower one week prior to my wedding for a floral arrangement for my seating chart. I quickly sent a few pictures for inspiration and my budget..I wasn't expecting much but the flowers turned out AMAZING! Specially for the discussed price. Blooms flowers reassured me that the arrangement could be attached to the seating chart no problem. Turns out they even included a clip behind the arrangement for easy attachment. I wish blooms flower did my wedding florals now. read more

I picked up a lovely bouquet for my mom here. I called ahead and asked for a bouquet for about $50, with a lot of yellow in it. I picked it up on my lunch hour and soon had a zillion coworkers swarming around my desk asking about them and remarking on how beautiful they were. My mom also loved them. Great service, beautiful flowers! read more

Got a bouquet here for my sister's graduation and asked it to be within a budget of $50 and they made the prettiest arrangement ever! I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing selection of flowers as I have gotten way worse arrangements for the same price at other florists. Will be my go to for all my future flower needs! read more

I called around 3pm to order a mixed bouquet to pick up around 5pm. Not knowing they close at 5pm they agreed anyways. I was late getting off work and they were very accommodating in letting us pick up at 6pm. He even told us no need to rush! I was very impressed with the gorgeous bouquet as well. I asked for something with purple and they did just that. Service and product I highly recommend. read more

Marie is awesome! She took care of my flowers for my wedding and she did an amazing job. I got quotes from so many places and she was the only one willing to work with my budget on the centerpiece and delivered what I wanted and more while other florists told me what I wanted cannot be done and changed my colour scheme completely! Three of my friends has since hired her as their florist for their weddings and were completely satisfied. She is very patients and knows what works at the venue. Her flowers are amazingly fresh that they look fake! You can't go wrong with ordering flowers from Blooms for any occasion. read more

I purchased a bouquet for my daughter's convocation and am so pleased with the bouquet I got. The owners here were super communicative and open to our requests (we wanted a pink and peachy selection of flowers, smaller and more compact). Upon picking up the bouquet, they also were super informative in how we should keep the flowers overnight before the convocation. I would highly recommend Blooms to anyone looking to purchase a bouquet for a special event! read more

Flowers and arrangements are very subjetive - each florist will have a slightly different style and preference in the materials they use. Blooms has been around forever - I recall their original location from within First Markham Place as the mall itself was first opened. It was a much smaller store, and now they have moved across First Markham with a bigger store front and what seems to be a much better work area in the back. I've been a part of a few weddings with flowers from Blooms and have always been satisfied. The owner does change up some stuff once in a while and implement new elements - I think one year for Valentine's Day they had gold dipped roses, etc, so it's definitely a good surprise. However, the new elements may not be for everyone - I had a friend comment that the gold-dipped rose was tacky. With any artist, the important part is that they have to be willing to work with you, and on that level Blooms is good at it. With their experience and huge portfolio it's easier to pick and choose which elements you like. I'm not sure regarding the prices for weddings (I imagine the price will vary greatly depending on how much you're getting done through them) but for bouquets i found them to be a tad bit more expensive than another florist I've purchased at. It's not an outrageous amount (I think it was about $10 more) but I think the materials they use (the wrapping paper etc) seemed a bit nicer. They do get very busy (ie. On Valentine's day, but then so do all florists) and I find I only enjoy coming here if I've pre-ordered already. Otherwise they get so busy and a bit flustered if you just walk in. read more

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! We ordered mothers day flowers and when arrived they were for an address 10 mins drive away. the other mother had been waiting 3 days for those flowers!!! When we emailed Blooms.ca they refused to acknowledge our email and no attempt to remedy the situation. Too many florists to waste your time and money being scammed here. Have emails to show how cold and rude they were. read more

Spoke with Marie on the phone and she was very nice She was patient and walked me through a number of questions I had regarding doing my own dyi flower arrangements. I did not feel rushed and she was able to make to understand a number of things about seasonal flowers and logistics for specific flowers. I will be communicating with Marie via email for more details on my order for next month. I'm excited! read more

AMAZING!! I literally just received flowers for my birthday and could not be more thrilled with the design and wrapping. So delicate and gorgeous. read more

.I called Blooms Flower and Design after finding an arrangement I liked on their website. The lady was extremely helpful. I gave her all the information and she said she would call the church to make sure the arrangement was delivered before the service started.The arrangement was beautiful, bigger than I expected.The purple and mauve flowers were stunning. Excellent customer service.Thank you. read more

Marie was great to work with. I had my wedding bouquets (Brides, Bridesmaids, moms and flower girls total of 11) completed by Blooms Flower & Design. The flowers turned out to be exactly like the pictures I had given to Marie. The price was reasonable and the delivery was on time. The best part, the flowers were super fresh. I had white/gold bouquets. There were NO yellow/dying pedals in any of the bouquet. I'll definitely refer family and friends to her. read more

Came here to order flower for an early Mother's Day present for my mom and they did not disappoint at all. The staff is super friendly and helpful. They have a huge selection of different flowers and colours. Price wise it might feel like they are on the expensive side, but for what you get, it is amazing. They are also willing to customize "packages". Definitely recommend. read more

Was looking around for a florist to order flowers for Mother's Day since I have had bad experiences with a couple of other places decided to call to order two bouquet for Mother's Day. I had went on their website but couldn't find anything that was appropriate so decided to follow one of the reviews and to let them know what I want. All I said was I wanted a pink and red theme with roses and lily. When I went to pick it up a few days later, I was thoroughly impressed by the quality of the arrangement, the flowers included aside from what I wanted and the wrapping. The price was very reasonable as well considering what the final product was. Will be going back there again for any floral services. Highly reccomend this place. read more

This was by far the worst experience I've ever had of buying flowers. I paid $50 for fresh cut flowers and usually when you go to a flower shop, they include baby's breath and leather leaf fillers as well as a proper presentation of the flowers. Instead I was told that if I wanted baby's breath I'd need to pay extra and when the employee was wrapping up the flowers he wrapped it up like a 5 year old wrapping a gift with lots of tape and newspaper quality wrapping paper. I informed him that they were a gift and I'd like it to be presentable, he responded and said that they would be taken apart anyways, plus I would have to pay for proper wrapping which should have been requested ahead of time. I asked if he could just put a ribbon around the bouquet and he said that he would have to charge extra. I would not have been so furious if it weren't for the fact that he was extremely rude and trying to charge me over a piece of ribbon. A real flower shop would be able to arrange a bouquet without having to call ahead of time. Utterly disappointed and would never recommend anyone. Loblaws has better standards than this place. read more
