I live north of Dallas, TX. Went to the website (through the funeral home webpage) and was impressed by the selection available. I chose a blue and white basket with an angel and a sympathy card. The order was placed easily and the price was very reasonable. I was given an order confirmation and receipt within hours. The afternoon of the visitation, I texted my friend to offer support and he sent me a picture of what I had ordered. The flowers were gorgeous and I was so glad they could bring beauty to a sad occasion. He told me that they were beautiful. The picture shows it. Thank you Flowers and Fancies.

I placed the order online, scheduled pick up, and moved on with my life. Unfortunately, I received an email about 5 days before I was due to pick up the arrangement essentially advising that my selection was no longer available because the flowers wouldn't be in season the month of December. Huh? They explained that they would do their best but I asked for a refund instead. Apparently there was a website issue that allowed the purchase to go through but shouldn't have. Disappointed and frustrated, I placed a last minute birthday order with a large corporation and tried to put the matter behind me. Well color me surprised when the Flowers & Fancies team sent me an arrangement to apologize for the error. I was shocked, surprised, and necessarily reminded that mistakes happen and it's best to have patience and understanding, especially for local, well meaning businesses. The arrangement provided is gorgeous and makes the one I ordered from a large corporation just doesn't compare. Thank you to Heather and the Flowers & Fancies team for making it right. I look forward to supporting in the future.

The dad of a close family member passed away unexpectedly. We sent the "Designer's Choice" floral…read morearrangement to the McComas Funeral Home at 50 West Broadway Bel Air, Maryland, 21014. We chose this tall elegant designer's arrangement and I asked Lisa Fiore to choose red, white, and blue flowers, because the deceased had been in the army and had also been a police officer after serving in the army, and we wanted to commemorate his commitment to service, and when I called I shared that I was fine with spending over the $150.00 price to include red roses, and no carnations or baby's breath, and to charge separately for the tax and delivery charge, along with adding gratuity. In this arrangement, the serenity of the color blue and the purity of intention symbolized by white let our family know that we were sending our calm strength to them during these difficult times. Beautiful blooms included blue delphinium, white lilies, and alstroemeria, along with red roses, eucalyptus, limonium, and more, beautifully arranged in a dazzling cobalt blue vase. I asked to include a second arrangement Two Dozen Long Stemmed Red Roses by BloomNation™ Custom Sympathy Arrangement - Premium for the deceased wife to take home after the services, with the red roses matching the red roses that were in the custom red, wite, and blue arrangement. We read the reviews for the various local florists, and after reading the reviews, we selected "Flowers by Fiore". I called the florist, Lisa Fiore, by phone, and I wanted to be sure that the arrangements could be sent for the wake service, followed by the funeral the next day, and the reception post the cemetery. I was asked what I was looking for, and I went onto the web site and selected a tall elegant arrangement, so I could share specific flowers and colors that I was considering, along with purchased sympathy card for both arrangements, because there did not appear to be enough room on the card section on the web site. Lisa provided her email address so I could email the longer cards, mentioning all the family members by name. Lisa Fiore and her team created two beautiful, thoughtful arrangements that accurately reflected the occasion's solemnity. Flowers by Fiore gets top praise for attentive customer service, timely delivery, and understanding my personal preferences during a difficult time. The florist was willing to incorporate meaningful flowers and colors to personalize the arrangement, making it a fitting tribute to the deceased. I very much appreciated the florist's empathy and care in creating two arrangements that were at the wake, the church service, reception after the burial, and the family's home after the services. The florist created the floral arrangements with attention to detail, beautiful colors, and fresh flowers in early April 2025. The sympathy arrangements were stunning and arrived on time at the funeral home. It was exactly what we needed to express our condolences during a difficult time. My family stated, "Your floral arrangements are magnificent, and the funeral home staff even commented on how beautiful they are." Thank you so much for your efforts in creating two floral arrangements in an array of colors that represented the impact that the deceased had on so many family members and friends! Our sincere thanks!

I used their website which I found easy and user-friendly. I even got a delivery confirmation email, which was great. However, I chose a dozen pink roses and added a pink ribbon for an extra charge to send my mother-in-law who just broke her hip and then had to put her 16 year old kitty down after a long bout with illness. I wanted to send something to cheer her up. When she thanked me and sent me a picture it was a beautiful arrangement of red roses with a pink ribbon. I'm happy the flowers made her happy, but I wish they had contacted me by phone or by email so that I could have chosen a different color, because then I would've chosen white or yellow with a matching ribbon. Even with the red arrangement I would've preferred a matching red ribbon. Red is a little too romantic for my MIL in my opinion. Overall, I thought they looked good in the picture and they made her happy, so I will likely order from here in the future, but I will call or specify alternate preferences in the comments on my online order next time.

I had a very vague concept of what I was looking for when we initially met for a consultation and asked her to take creative freedom with my only requests being "sunflowers and a general fall vibe". Her work has a very organic feel to it, and it absolutely blew me away. My guests are still talking about how incredible my bouquet was!! She had all kinds of ideas that hadn't even crossed my mind like building an arch from branches, and putting fall garland on tables to enhance the scenery of our wedding venue. She was even able to locally source organic flowers for our wedding which made us so happy! Everything was perfect in every way. It is also worth mentioning that Christie is AMAZING with communication. I am very "Type A" with organization and planning, and she kept me in the loop every step of the way and consulted me throughout the process which gave me constant reassurance and kept my mind at ease. I cannot recommend this business enough!

I was very upset when I saw the plant that was delivered had a Fall Bow (leaves and owls), instead of a funeral appropriate colored bow (white, yellow, pink). I called Jonathan's and expressed my embarrassment that they would put a bow like that on a funeral/sympathy arrangement. The lady I spoke to apologized and admitted the bow was inappropriate and said, "they need to start reading those cards". The plant was beautiful and I've been satisfied with arrangements that I've ordered in the past (over the phone), so I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again. The problem came from ordering online, I would recommend phoning in your order to avoid mistakes like this.

She mentioned that they wouldn't have the ivy, which I was ok with. The delivered product was beautiful, looked like the model shown on their website and really captured the essence and color pallete I was going for. Price was reasonable since they used lots of flowers in the arrangement. Very happy with the delivered product.
