Flowers By Richard

I decided to order from here based on the reviews on Unilocal.Flowers by Richard did not disappoint. I looked on their website to decide what I wanted to order. All of the arrangements are beautiful. I ordered online at about 10:30 a.m. and the flowers were delivered to a midtown address by 3 p.m. I called around 2 p.m. to inquire about the delivery time and they stated before 4 p.m. My friend (and all of the women in her office) loved the flowers. I will definitely use this florist again.

Flowers by Richard did an AMAZING job on the flowers for my wedding, especially my bouquet. I had a very small ceremony in Manhattan and I called about a week in advance to place the order. I spoke with Richard and told him my ideas. He turned them into amazing flowers that really set the tone for the day. I would recommend this shop a million times over.

Here to add to the positive reviews. It’s reassuring to find a proprietor that takes a long term view on a potential customer relationship. Richard stayed open and waited for me to arrive after I called past hours. Then, for a small sum he put together such a large and insanely cool bouquet that we had to go out and purchase a bigger vase, which we were happy to do. It’s the down to earth and normal type of personal service that is all too rare nowadays in big cities. Suffice to say, the flowers are fresh and I’ve found my local florist.

My girlfriend LOVED the flowers I sent for her birthday. I changed the delivery date because I was afraid she wasn’t going to be in her office and they had no problem delivering them a day earlier. Really nice, I will definitely be ordering from you again! :)

Flowers by Richard did a fantastic job on my wedding. My bouquet and table arrangements were exactly as i pictured them, they were absolutely beautiful! The prices are fair and the customer service is excellent. One of the best vendors I’ve ever worked with, stress free and worry free. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an exceptional florist. Thank you Richard!

They redelivered flowers when the original ones were taken by a neighbor. It was much appreciated. They are kind, courteous and professional. Not to mention the arrangement is beautiful. Thank you.

I am astonished, not just by their gorgeous flowers but by their absolute commitment to their customers. I had originally ordered flowers for a friend who’s husband had been operated. When they discovered that the flowers were undeliverable because he was still in ICU they continued to call the hospital every day, twice a day, to see if he had been switched rooms so they could deliver the flowers. This is downright amazing, and I am just blown away by the kindness, and their level of professionalism and service. You can tell that the team at Flowers by Richard, particularly Zeida, take their work and their customers’ satisfaction very seriously. I am so impressed. My new go to place!

A member of my family received a vase filled with flowers from Flowers by Richard while recovering from surgery. The flowers were delivered to the hospital and were so fresh, they lasted for over a week and a half (even in that hospital air!). The bouquet was so bright and vibrant, with exotic plants and big blooms. It is always nice to receive flowers to know that someone is thinking of you, but it is an extra-​special bonus when the flowers are so beautiful, anyone who walked into the room couldn’t help but comment. A big thank you to Flowers By Richard– I will be sure to use your business when I need to send flowers to someone in Manhattan!

I couldn’t be happier with the flowers provided by Flowers by Richard for my wedding ceremony and reception. Their quote was substantially less, and included more flowers, than other florists. I emailed Richard pictures of bouquets and centerpieces, met with him twice and that was all he needed to get the style of flowers I wanted. My bouquet was exactly what I wanted. All of the centerpieces were gorgeous. Richard even threw in a few extra centerpieces (at a bargain rate) when I had to add a table for the reception. My guests repeatedly commented on how lovely the flowers were. Richard was extremely nice and fun to work with. He was more concerned with providing beautiful flowers than anything else! Highly recommend!

I found the best florist ever!!! Flowers by Richard is an exceptional florist! I ordered my arrangement today at 10:30am and they were delivered THE SAME DAY 2 hours later! The flowers were absolutely gorgeous! The arrangement was beyond what I ever hoped and expected! The price was extremely reasonable and the best through out the entire neighborhood. I also had the opportunity to even talk to Richard himself and he was professional and super nice. Customer service was impeccable! I will never ever go any where else! Thank you so much Flowers by Richard! You get 10 stars from me!

These guys are great! Very professional, put together a good looking flower bucket and were right on time to deliver it to my girl at work! ⁵⁄₅ Stars!

My wife started a new job so I had to find a new local florist. I chose Flowers by Richard for same day delivery and THE FLOWERS ARRIVED TWO HOURS AFTER I ORDERED THEM! The photo my wife posted on Facebook looked just like the photo on the website. The price was a little higher than I’m used to in the suburbs, but Manhattan delivery is free so it came out about the same.

Came here the day after valentines to buy flowers for a friend hosting brunch. The flowers were on average 5.50 per stem and a dozen white roses priced at 125. Asked for a bouquet in the 30 – 40 range and offered six sad looking tulips, then to a corner where flowers were dead and dying (we could pick something there) because «flower prices are higher this week.» I’d understand if the flowers were nice but this was ridiculous.
Walked right out and went to Whole Foods where choice and service were much more satisfying.

Had a small issue, however this has to be the best customer service I have every had with a florist. I can tell they really are passionate about what they do and the product they produce. I am fully satisfied with the service, the flowers, and the customer service. Very impressed and will definitely be using them in the future. Well done and Thank you! I absolutely love this florist!!! Huge huge Kudos to Richard! I will never use another florist in Manhattan!

As I was looking for a florist for my wedding, I found Richard and his shop through great reviews on Wedding Wire and Unilocal.I was still pleasantly surprised by how easygoing and how accommodating he was. We met twice to discuss the kinds of flowers I wanted after I sent him pictures (of arrangements using both real and fake flowers). With his suggestions, we decided on bouquets and centerpieces that looked better than I had imagined.
We also asked for a special remembrance piece where I only specified the kind of flower I wanted. Richard came up with the rest — we ended up getting a beautiful table arrangement of Asiatic lilies.
We also asked for centerpieces that doubled as aisle decorations. As expected, a few of those centerpieces were knocked over and broken during the ceremony but Richard and his guys prepared for this. They had brought extras so our reception had centerpieces on every table.
It was no fuss, no muss. The delivery of the flowers to the venue was on time and the flowers all looked fresh.

I have used a lot of florist in Manhattan for delivery to the GFs office, but once I used Flowers by Richard, the GFs review of the flowers made me keep coming back here. Great service. Fair prices. Great flowers.

I’m so happy to have found an exceptional florist in NYC! I ordered flowers for my sister’s bday on line from Flowers by Richard after reading great reviews on Unilocal so I had high expectations — they were exceeded.
Firstly the flowers were gorgeous — nice variety, super fresh, so full/​dense and fragrant — as described by my sister (photo attached).
Secondly, the service was excellent. I called in to change delivery date and they called back right away. When they went to deliver the flowers, they called me to alert me to the fact that the building concierge said she had left for the weekend, so had asked if I was aware and okay with delivery! :)
After so many disappointing experiences with other florists (poor quality and service), I’m so happy to have found a great one in NYC!
Well deserving of 5 stars!

Wow. Ordered an arrangement to be delivered to my girlfriends office around noon today, she had them by 3p. They blow the doors off anything you’d get from a generic florist (i.e. 1−800-nonsense), they’re a local shop so you’re doing good there and she’s the envy of her entire company.
Can’t beat this place with a stick, will be back for future orders.

I have found my new florist!
So professional and so nice! I placed a last minute order for my sister’s birthday and it was so pretty! I’m currently not in the states so they suggested I order online and for a customized look just write what I want under special instructions. I asked for something pretty and feminine with a sunflower (which I knew would be a challenge because sunflower is such a bold color) but it came out beautifully!
I emailed them from their website and they responded within minutes both times, but I don’t think my replies to their emails go through, so I’d recommend calling our contacting them from their website.
Thank you for the gorgeous flowers

I happened to be in The City and wanted some flowers for our suite. My fiancé and I were meeting my daughter here for her birthday celebration so I wanted something nice for the living area in our hotel suite.
Found Richard here on Unilocal and walked in. They were actually crazy busy making the day’s deliveries.
Asked if they took walk-​in orders and Richard replied «you want to wait for it?»
Within five minutes (no joke), I was out the door with the most amazing arrangement custom made per my feedback.
I’ll DEFINITELY send my NYC friends to this amazing business!!!
