I cannot say enough about how positive all parts of my interactions with this wonderful little flower shop has been. I'm in Canada and was looking for a florist that was local to where my parents and Aunt and Uncle were staying in Gold Canyon, AZ over Christmas. this year. They were staying in one of the big mobile home Snow Bird parks in their little homes away from home.
I always try to support the local businesses, whether here in Victoria or elsewhere, so I started my search and looked on the map. DID I PICK A GREAT ONE!
My order was not particularly straight-forward. First, I was ordering two Christmas arrangements to be delivered to one address. I emailed them and they called me back right away and gave me the instructions on how to do this on their web site. That was straight forward and I placed the orders.
Then I decided I needed to have them delivered a bit earlier than planned. No problem, they could accommodate. Next I had to change the wording on the card a bit (my cousins and I were going in together and it had to be worded just right, these arrangements were "us there in spirit"). Once again, no problemo.
The Christmas arrangements were delivered on time, everything was perfect. My parents and Aunt and Uncle LOVED them and sent pictures, they were beautiful just like in the pictures on line and even better. My Aunt texted me "You have no idea how I feel close to all of you by these flowers. It feels like Christmas now".
Mission accomplished.
So everyone out there, shopping local paid off hugely for my family. Luck was on my side when I chose them and I would highly recommend them. They truly cared about getting it right and I felt like a valued long-time customer even though it was my first time...
Read moreI’m writing this review to express not only how wonderful it has been over the years working with Marni at Flower Arrangements and Gifts by Apache Junction Arizona, but to also share something of a personal nature about Marni.
Since, as the saying goes “business before pleasure”, it has been nothing but a positive experience over the years working with Marni and her team when ordering floral arrangements and other things - particularly since in my case I live clear across country. The people that I’ve ordered the floral arrangements for have commented more than once that the arrangements are beautiful and last quite a long time.
Just as importantly, if not more importantly for me personally, has been my experience talking with Marni. Regardless of how busy Marni may be, even during the Easter and Mother’s Day seasons, Marni and I end up talking about family and other things including our shared love of dogs. We’ve talked over the phone about the loss of family members, both 2 and 4 legged, and how much we care for our furry friends. Talking with Marni is like talking with a friend who you’ve had for a long, long time. Her caring nature is obvious to me and I’m certain just as obvious to anyone else whom she comes in contact with.
Thank you Marni, and the entire Flower Arrangements and Gifts by Apache Junction Arizona staff, for always making it a positive experience when ordering floral arrangements. Also thank you Marni,...
Read moreI have used Apache Junction Flowers a number of times to order flowers for my mother. I live in a different state but she will immediately call me after she receives them to tell me how gorgeous the arrangement is. She will also text me photos so I can see for myself. Many times I have just ordered the designer choice and have never been disappointed. The arrangements are beautiful, smell good (according to my mother) and last so she could enjoy them for awhile. The cost is always appropriate as they will ask you your budget and then let you know what they can do within that budget. The staff has always been so kind to work with when I call and delivery has always been on time. I have tried other flower shops but was not happy with the condition of the flowers when they were delivered. I have also tried 1-800-Flowers but the flowers never arrived. They later claimed it was due to not having a florist nearby that could fulfill the order. But, they never contacted me so I did not know the flowers were not delivered until days after. On top of that, they charged my Visa for the order and it took me disputing it with my credit card company to get it resolved. After that, I started using Apache Junction Flowers and will only use them from now on. I recommend them 100%....
