When I knew my son and I wouldn't be able to make it down for my auntie's 90th birthday, I…read moreabsolutely needed to send her some flowers. I was about to go with one of those large commercial florists until my cousin suggested Mountain Oak Florist &Gifts, which is her preferred florist for her mom. She sent me their website info, and I went ahead and had a look-see. As a small business their selection wasn't as vast as anything a Buzzfeed article suggests, but that's what attracted me to what they offer. Their arrangements are categorized into almost 30 themes, and my son and I enjoyed going through more than just the birthday and anniversary ones because the images were so pretty. The vases and baskets in which the flowers were arranged seemed thoughtfully selected for each colorful bouquet. We decided on Floral Freshness for my auntie. And here's one of the main reasons why I'm posting this: My online order requested for my auntie's flowers to be send on 2/26, but about an hour ago, my cousin said that my auntie's bouquet had been delivered early. Awesome!* I don't send a lot of flowers, but talking to my auntie reminded me of how good it feels to do it. I'm really glad that I went with Mountain Oak instead of a larger retailer. I look forward to using them again. *No offense to the other yelper whose flowers missed a funeral, 'cause that sucks.

I've never ordered from this business until yesterday. I gave a specific price in which I would…read morelike to spend. Getting the invoice, I realized it was $20 more dollars then what was discussed. When I called for clarification, the person on the phone was very dismissive and said "you have to specify if you want the price to include delivery"... as a first time customer, I would assume I would have been told that from the beginning. Every other florist I've ever used this has never been an issue. There was no "I'm sorry, let me make this right"... instead I got a "is that all you needed?". After I said yes, that was all I was calling about, then I was asked "is that ok". At that point, I felt as though it should have never even had to been asked and that it should have been made right without hesitation. Instead, I was made to feel patronized. I will not be using this business ever again. First time and very last!

The lady/ owner said that she would let my sister know when they would be ready for pick up. My sister tried to call several times and even went by there to check the status of the ornament's. They were either not open or she was told that they weren't ready yet. She got the answer every time for months. Well she finally got to talk to someone the other day. And they told her that they gave them away to some one else. Because my sister never came to pick them up. And just know this, they were already paid for. They also had our names on them. This is NOT how you run a business. And if you would have called to let someone know that they were ready she would have picked them up. But NO one called. My kids were really excited about what they painted, and now I've got to tell them that the lady gave them away because she was to lazy to do her job. I'm going to make sure I let friends know how you do business. Which sucks. Yours Truly, A Mad Mother.

When we got it, it wasn't cascading at all, there were gaps in it, it wasn't symmetrical, and the ribbon was stained. My mom had to spend almost an hour before the wedding to fix it. When I called them today to let them know about it, I was told that I was just trying to rip them off and that if my mom did such a good job on the bridesmaid bouquet (which looked great using flowers from Kroger), then why didn't she just make my bouquet? Excuse me??? Then I was asked to bring my bouquet in and they would give me my money back. So when I took my bouquet in, I was polite, showed them the pictures below and told them that I had never felt so disrespected by a business. I told them they should get a phone with a hold button because I heard every word they said about me. She told me that everything I heard was exactly how she feels. No apology or anything. I'm not a crook, I'm not trying to rip anybody off. I was willing to pay for what I got, which is in no way what I ordered. But after the way they treated me, I requested a full refund. I work in retail, I know what it's like. I have never been treated so poorly by a business before, I'm just in shock.
