A New Leaf Flower Shoppe

Very disappointed. I was overcharged by the employee that waited on me. No roses, no pricey blooms. She handled the flowers poorly, pushing them down by the palm of her hand. And pinched pedals with her fingers to adjust them. She added nothing to the water to preserve the flowers and offered no packet to take with me. The flowers began wilting the next morning. $ 50 down the drain on a bouquet half the size of one I could have gotten at a grocery store for 10 bucks.

Trish and her team are great! I arranged an appointment to come in and speak with Trish regarding my wedding bouquet and boutonnière. One of her staff had a personal emergency and she asked to reschedule but made it work when I asked if there was any way to keep it (as I was coming in from out of town). Right off the bat I was so thankful for this. I brought my picture of a bouquet in and she knew all of the flowers and was able to make it nearly identically with the exception of one flower which she named off the months of the year it was available — she has an impressive amount of knowledge (I think she said she has been in the biz for 35 years). I got the impression she can make anything happen, flowers-​wise, with her breadth of knowledge and the unlimited variety of things she can get in the shop. While we were talking she was getting deliveries from a lady’s flower truck. She receives flowers from all around the area and it just felt like a magical place to be. There were all sorts of flowers I have never seen before lining the walls. It has such a neighborhood feel, which I loved, coming from Seattle, where I feel that is lacking often times. She knew my photographer (Michèle Waite), my makeup artist (Sarah Rorvig) and I felt like I was part of the neighborhood instantly. Trish was kind and a delight to talk to. She was flexible about allowing me to pick up the bouquet early before the shop opened and ended up sending me a note that she preferred to drop it off during my hair appointment as she wanted to ensure it stayed cool. What service. When I saw the flowers come in to the salon as I was getting my hair done, they were so beautiful it made my eyes just fill with tears! Check out the photos I posted. My (now) husband also surprised me with flowers he bought from her which were equally breathtaking. If you are getting married in the area, go see Trish! If you are getting flowers for any event and personal service means a lot to you, go see her. She’s wonderful.

The wonderful people at «A New Leaf» Flower Shop in Bellingham are amazing! Not only did they return an email to me ON MOTHER’S DAY when we couldn’t make it to see my mother-​in-​law because of illness (responding to a customer they had never met), but they saved the day by creating a beautiful arrangement for my mother-​in-​law, first thing Monday morning, and made sure it was delivered to her bridge party, at the Bellingham County Club, the very next morning, by 12:00! I am confident these people could handle anything! Winnie was thrilled, I was thrilled, and my husband was very happy to see it didn’t break the bank! What a pleasure to work with! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have achieved «hero status» in my book!

Just received Valentine’s Day flowers from A New Leaf Flower Shoppe sent by one of my daughters. They are spectacular and perfectly gorgeous with some of my favorite flowers and colors – pink stargazer lilies, pink hyacinths (I think), white ranunculus, pink and pale peach roses – artistically arranged and so fragrant too! A New Leaf Flower Shoppe is the first choice in our family when we want to send flowers.

I am not from the area and needed to send a smile! I called Trish and explained to her the look, feel and smell that I wanted. Trish and her team delivered not only a smile on the recipients face but in our hearts as well. Thanks again for helping us from afar!

My wife got a $ 15 arrangement of flowers for the house. It was the ugliest arrangement I have ever seen. Flowers were wilting. The leafy bits were awful. I am not a flower connoisseur by any means, but it was so bad I felt I had to do this review. We kept the arrangement for one day before it annoyed me so much that we threw them out.

We recently had the privilege of having Trish provide flowers for our wedding in September in Vancouver BC.
We gave Trish examples of arrangements we were interested in, pictures of our venue, and wedding party attire. We were completely amazed with what she put together with our vision and budget.
Trish was great at communicating with us leading up to our big day. She worked with our budget and her prices were comparable. But the final product you cannot compare. She cares about her work and it shows.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for the flower arrangement for your significant other for gestures that you care and for people looking to flowers to make their wedding day that much more special.
Thank you Trish!

I had a perfect customer experience at A New Leaf. I was surprised to find out it was a friends birthday and I was meeting her for dinner that evening after work. Luckily, A New Leaf is located downtown, and they’re open until 5:30pm so I was able to swoop in here between work and dinner.
The shopkeeper was AWESOME: extremely friendly and creative, and as she constructed an awesome bouquet, she talked about some of the more exotic flowers there in the shop. I don’t know much about flower shops, but this one is literally perfect: conveniently located, convenient hours, friendly & knowledgeable staff, traditional and exotic flowers, affordable and locally owned.
Never again will I hastily buy a starbucks gift card as a birthday gift!

What an AWESOME job she did on my wedding flowers!!!
We live in Portland, and our wedding was in Maple Falls, WA so I had to communicate everything via emails. I sent her ideas from Pinterest, colors, and the types of flowers that I wanted. We ordered bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, wrist corsage, and aisle flowers. Everything turned out WONDERFUL!!! Great job! Will definitely come back in the future!

Trish and her team are AWESOME!
I recently got married on Lummi Island and reached out to Trish about doing the flowers for my wedding after reading some great Unilocal reviews. Trish and her team did not disappoint!
I recently relocated to Seattle so and needed to manage all wedding details remotely. Trish was very responsive via email and over the phone which is always such a relief for any bride during wedding planning… let alone a bride whose entire wedding was being planned sight-​unseen.
I don’t know anything about flowers and simply sent her a couple ideas of things I liked from Pinterest and, boy, did she ever deliver! I ordered my bouquet, two mother’s corsages, and four men’s boutonnieres — every single one was stunning! I like flowers but I’m not the kind of girl to go ga-​ga over some stems… I was absolutely enamored with my bouquet!
Well done Trish and team — thank you so very much!

I found A New Leaf on Unilocal when I was looking to send a thank you bouquet to a friend who works up there (I’m in SF). The flowers were beautiful and just what I’d asked for (my friend sent a picture). The delivery reliable, the recipient very pleased. The reviews were right on!

I placed an order over the phone after doing a Unilocal search in the Bellingham area.
The florist was very helpful in description along with adding a card with a paragraph I had emailed.
The recipient was thrilled with the quality arraignment.
You can’t go wrong using «New Leaf». I’m very happy and will continue to use them for my future needs. Thank you!

Wow! I called with a vague idea of what I wanted — some yellow, simple, vase flowers for my mom’s birthday. I also asked for a small, single flower (due to cost) corsage she could wear to lunch & dinner at her senior living apartment. My budget was $ 60 including tax, delivery. They totally exceeded my expectations! The bouquet had at least 6 roses, maybe more, yellow & some orange, with a dozen purple bell shaped drooping flowers, some yellow spray type flower & greenery. Beautiful! I had asked for a pix so the great helpful woman took one with her cell phone & emailed to me. My mom said they smell great as well as beautiful. The corsage turned out to be one rose with two other flowers & a little greenery. So pretty! My mom was very excited to have it to wear to dinner. I will be calling them the next time I need flowers for my mom. I called this business based on other Unilocal reviews and so glad I did.

Trish and her staff did all my flowers for my wedding and I couldn’t have been happier on the arrangements. The price was so reasonable and I just told her my colors and favorite flowers and the flowers were stunning and better than I could’ve imagined. Would highly recommend to everyone!

These guys are GREAT! I ordered an arrangement for my mum’s 76^th birthday and they did an AMAZING bouquet! They communicated quickly and intelligently; they’re imaginative and professional.

This shop is amazing. The most friendly and sweet ladies you will ever meet. They did such a great job on an arrangement for me last year, that when I needed a bouquet for my Halloween wedding they were the only place I went. They looked at my example pic, and made my bouquet even cooler and more unique. They gave my son a free flower while I was ordering, and Trish even made my groom a boutineer for no extra charge!
Their prices are the best and will work with whatever budget you have to give you the most beauty for your buck. I will never go anywhere else, customer for life!

Don’t look any further, A New Leaf is by FAR the BEST floral shop in town. I was referred to Trish at A New Leaf by a family friend while I was searching for a florist for my wedding last August. After meeting with Trish, I knew that she had the vision and creativity to deliver the kind of arrangements I was hoping for. When the flowers arrived at the hotel on my wedding day, I was absolutely amazed. Trish and her team had created the most stunning combination of color and texture that I had ever seen. Further, her prices are so affordable and she is so willing to work with you to use any combination of your own materials and flowers. I asked her to incorporate Dahlias from my mother-in-law’s garden as well as delicate sola wood flowers that require quite a bit of delicate hand work. She really listens to your preferences and translates your vision (sometimes not communicated in the best way!) into a tangible work of art! Thank you Trish, you helped make our wedding so beautiful!

I consulted Unilocal of course when looking for a local florist, and wow was I thoroughly impressed. A simple walk-​in and 10 minutes later I had a stunning bouquet for my friend. Trish used the colors I requested, and the arrangement was gorgeous and wrapped beautifully. The service was so kind and warm, I felt more like an old friend than a customer. What a great find and great value too!
Support your local businesses and go here for all your floral needs, you will not be disappointed!

TRish is AMAZING!
My mother in law turned 70 yesterday, and I needed something spectacular. I’m a last minute kind of gal, but Trish told me not to worry, the flowers would be delivered by the afternoon.
And what an arrangement! Trish asked what colors and scents Nana liked, and then she went wild. It may be the most gorgeous arrangement I’ve ever seen (on Skype).
If you’re looking for flowers in B’Ham, look no further!

JQ’s is clearly the best in Bellingham for a «bunch» on the go.
You cannot beat the location, staff, or selection. The owner has turned the tiny and awkward space into a user friendly shop complete with by-​the-​stem buckets or a willing staff ready to take your order and deliver a giant JQ creation — usually within the same day. The PRICES are crazy cheap, the final product is super classy and clean. Need flowers that say: «Sorry I slept with your best friend.» or «I was dumb, I was drunk, let me beg forgiveness over chocolate fondue at my place?» Then… JQ’s is for you. I love it so much I canceled my in house account at the «other» B-​ham florist, and took all my business under one tiny roof.
