My partner had some flowers sent on Tuesday. Ive got to say they were beautiful when they arrived and each day they have brought me new pleasure. Every day they have changed, opened, grown and are the most beautiful flowers he has ever sent. And he sends flowers often. Thank you for making them so beautiful.

Went above and beyond when I gave the wrong house number. Delivered to right house by Bob who didn't give up. Whole experience from first phone call has been really easy. And to end it all the flowers were excellent. Thank you all.

Sometimes you need to send flowers without planning. I found First for Flowers absolutely excellent service. They were so helpful and accommodating. The flowers were sent the same day and were absolutely beautiful by the photograph I received. I would like to thank them for being so efficient and will be using them in the future.
