This service has been a life saver for me in the past. The number of time I have forgotten someone’s birthday or anniversary etc. is embarrassing and its only getting worse as I get older. Thankfully a lot of online flower shops have a same day flowers service and I can have flowers delivered within hours of placing an order on their websites. I can think of no other gift that can be delivered as quickly as a bouquet of flowers.
Same Day Flowers Order Deadline
So which florist do I recommend for this very important task? Well it can depend on a number of factors. Probably the first thing you need to do is look at you watch. If it is after 3pm I’m afraid it’s too late – you will need to order flowers for tomorrow and apologise to the recipient for you forgetfulness at some point. I know not of any florists that have a order deadline later than 3pm – if you do pleased let me know in the comments section. Here is a list of the florists I use for same day flowers online and their latest ordering time:
- 3.00pm – Interflora, Flowers Direct & Flying Flowers
- 2.30pm – Serenata Flowers
- 1.00pm – Iflorist
I have found all these florists very reliable and the bouquets the produce to be top notch which is pretty good as they were arranged and delivered in a matter of hours.
Same Day Flowers Delivery Charges
Another factor to consider when choosing the same day flowers florists is delivery cost. You are obviously going to pay more for same day flowers delivery than you are to have them delivered later in the week. Same day flowers delivery costs (correct at the time of writing):
- Interflora – £7.99
- Flowers Direct – £5.99
- Flying Flowers – £6.95 (next day flowers have free delivery)
- Iflorist – £4.90
- Serenata Flowers – £6.99 (next day flowers have free delivery)
All the florists offer similar priced bouquets so if you are not constrained be the same day flowers deadline, which florists you use is down to personal preference though note that Interflora has a bigger choice of bouquets than the others. I have been very happy with the service provided by all the online florists.
