French Peas Flower Shop

I am in town on business and my husband ordered flowers for me from your shop. The bouquet that was waiting for me when I opened the door to my hotel was exquisite. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for the time and effort that went into this special surprise.

I ordered flowers for my mother-​n-​laws birthday from this flower shop, and requested that they be delivered to her house. They called to tell her they were going to deliver flowers to her!!! This is a florist! They should know half of the fun of sending and receiving flowers is opening the door to a beautiful bouquet of flowers! I am so disappointed! If you want to surprise someone with flowers, don’t use French Peas! My MNL is picking up her flowers… nice. So much for a wonderful surprise.

I am from Palestine, but currently live in Socal. I am getting married near Tyler next May, so I scheduled a consult with French Pea regarding my wedding and flew all the way from California to attend it. My fiancé is Hawaiian, so I wanted to try to achieve a somewhat tropical look, within reason as I understand that certain flowers would be hard to get. The consult went ok, although I didn’t feel very much «warmth» from them. It was almost as if I was interrupting or a burden somehow. The consult was September 7 and I was told that I would receive a quote the next week. After I finally emailed them, I got the quote on September 23. Nothing at all was said in either the consult or the quote about not being able to meet my expectations. Understand that I stressed multiple times that I was flexible. When I received the quote, I immediately responded with my credit card # to pay the deposit and was told that I would receive the contract in the mail. I finally emailed again on October 10 as I had not received the contract and the deposit had not been charged and was told that they had been very busy and would mail the contract out in a couple of days. Then on October 21, I received a card in the mail that said «We don’t do tropical. We do more of a garden look. So we can’t meet your needs.» I was SHOCKED that it took SEVEN weeks to tell me that they couldn’t «meet my needs», when I had always said I gave them creative license. I honestly feel like another wedding came along that they couldn’t do both, and the other wedding would be more profitable. Otherwise, it shouldn’t have taken 7 weeks to decline my business. Had I known sooner, I could have met with another florist when I flew into Tyler last week to meet with the bakery. Now I’m back to square one, with no opportunity to meet with a florist in Texas until February.

Love this shop! I stopped in to get a thank-​you for someone, and they had a great selection of arrangements of different sizes.

These ladies have never let me down. Their arrangements always make my wife happy! They need to be classified as florist and not antiques.
