A flower request shaped around the recipient within the creative range you set
Flowers available in Sunnyvale, shaped around the person receiving them
Set the creative direction while leaving room for a florist to work with available flowers. Share the occasion, budget, and any details you care about. A florist will review the request and confirm the design and total before you pay.
You can add or clarify preferences while the florist reviews your request. Keep the creative range clear.
What should the flowers feel like?
A mood is often more useful than a list of flower names. Choose the closest fit, then add a personal note. Include the receiving setting.

The details worth sharing
Focus on the recipient, style, budget, and how much creative freedom to allow. Leave room for substitutions only where you are comfortable with them.
- Favorite colors
- Flowers to include or avoid
- Preferred size
- Budget
- Delivery date
If one preference matters more than the others, call it out in your note. Include the destination before sending.
Mark what must stay and what the florist may adapt. Say whether the size is flexible.
Choose the florist's creative range
Choose how closely the florist should follow your idea. Name any flower you want to avoid.
Keep my priorities
Ask before changing a color, flower, or feature you marked as important. Use a reference image if it helps.
Use your judgment
Keep the intended feeling and budget while choosing suitable available flowers. Keep the note short and personal.
Note which changes you would want to approve first. Wait for the florist to confirm availability.
What happens after you send the request with the receiving setting in mind
The florist reviews the request before asking you to pay. Review the proposed total before paying.
- The florist checks your preferences, budget, and requested date with acceptable changes identified
- You discuss questions or possible substitutions before the florist responds
- You review the proposed design and total using the requested date
Nothing is ordered until the details are confirmed and you decide to continue. Ask about any substitution you dislike.
