Amazing wedding flowers

I couldn’t be happier with the flowers provided for our wedding! The bridal bouquet and groom’s buttonhole were absolutely stunning - carefully selected, beautifully arranged, and clearly crafted with a lot of attention to detail. The flowers were fresh, elegant, and received so many compliments throughout the day. Everything arrived perfectly on time, making the experience completely stress-free. Thank you for adding such a special touch to our big day!

Lovely flowers, great company

Whenever I've received flowers from the RFC they have always been stunning and even when I've had a slight issue, their customer service has been second to none. I always look forward to the amazing smells that fill the room when I receive these bouquets.

Good selection, not long lasting

Good size selection including muscari, lilac, lavender, hydrangea, jacobs ladder and raniculi. Sufficient to fill two vases. However, the crimson roses had some discoloured leaves and petals and most of the flowers were wilting at 4 days.

Sweet Peas

Primarily, I was disappointed with the delivery of the flowers. I actually saw the driver, from my front-room window, press the doorbell, then leave the package outside the front door. If I was not home, this would have meant that the item was left within sight of passers-by. To be honest, the driver may as well have placed the package out on the street! This was just silly. Also, some of the sweet peas were already falling off their stems, which was another disappointment, as I had ordered a small bunch, so it wasn't worth the cost, and the flowers were a gift to myself on my birthday. Note - the quality of previous sweet pea orders has been much better, but the delivery drivers were equally sloppy, e.g., leaving packages upside down etc.

A 'shout out' to Cosmo for excellent customer service

Today, I placed an order over the phone with The Real Flower Company, and I cannot praise Cosmo in customer services highly enough. The bouquet of roses I ordered is to be placed on my mother’s grave at her forthcoming funeral, making this phone call an emotional experience for me. Cosmo took the time to ensure my order was perfect, demonstrating a level of understanding and patience that is rare to find these days in our increasingly busy world. His warmth and patience turned what could have been a difficult moment into a pleasant experience. Cosmo is a real asset to The Real Flower Company—his outstanding customer service, coupled with his sincere kindness, made all the difference. Thank you, Cosmo, for going above and beyond!

Cosmo truly is a valued member of our team, and your experience is a beautiful reminder of the difference a little kindness can make.

A very disappointing experience

I ordered a Christmas wreath by redeeming reward points from my bank and asked for it to be delivered on 23rd December. As I had heard nothing from TRFC, I rang the bank on the 23rd to check the order had been processed. They said it had and seemed surprised that TRFC hadn't contacted me.

The wreath was eventually delivered later that day and was very disappointing as:
* It was in a large, deep plastic circle which made it difficult to hang on a front door - it seemed to be designed as a table decoration which wasn't what I wanted
*. Although the packaging looked robust, the roses and foliage were "tired" and didn't revive even after following the instructions on watering etc. I had to throw it away on Boxing Day so it only lasted for 3 days

I'm not impressed by TRFC's lack of communication, the wreath being unsuitable for hanging and its poor condition. What a waste of reward points.

Hello Jane, thank you for your review.

We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with our service after redeeming reward points via Coutts. Our door and table wreaths are built in the same way, however we apologise if this caused confusion.

It shouldn't, however, have arrived in a sad way. We'd like to try and make amends if you'll let us, so please do get in touch with us on info@realflowers.co.uk so we can look further into this.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,

Very disappointed with the wreath

Very disappointed with the wreath I ordered as a gift. For £172 I was expecting something luxurious and beautiful. This looks nothing like the images online. Wish I’d seen these reviews before I ordered.

Disappointed with product

Ordered a £95 bouquet from the RFC, having researched a number of companies beforehand. This was meant to be a special 'thank you' gift but the reality didn't live up to the image on the website. Wrote to express my disappointment. Rather than acknowledge this, they simply justified their position and referred me to the disclaimer on the website. Interesting that they need a disclaimer in the first place. Wouldn't use again or recommend and will go back to my tried and tested providers for equivalent bouquets at a much more competitive price.

Good afternoon John,
We're sorry you had a bad experience with your delivery. Unfortunately, we were let down by the courier we use on this occasion, and we totally understand your frustration.
We hope the replacement flowers and complimentary candle we organised on a premium next day delivery service made up for this.
Again, we can only apologise for what happened.

A potted Chandis rose

I ordered a potted Chandos rose from The Real Flower Company. The courier used gave me adequate warning of its arrival. And on arrival the condition of the rose was good. As the advice from the Company was to leave the plant in the pot for a couple of weeks to allow root development it is still in its pot but growing well with already 3 rose buds.
So far I have been most content unlike a bare root variety of the Chandos rose I ordered from another company which died in the spring!
