How can you guarantee the flowers arrive fresh?

It certainly makes sense to have doubts about shipping wholesale fresh cut flowers. Blooms By The Box has established a formula, packing each box with extreme care. We carefully place our flowers on top of a foam liner, which sits inside an insulated bubble-wrapped aluminum sleeve. Once sealed, the aluminum sleeve will enclose and secure the flowers from shifting within the box. This lining allows the flowers to travel overnight safely; during the hot season, an ice pack will be inserted in the box. Flowers with a difficult time traveling without water have water bags attached to the bottom of their stems. We stand by our product and have a very generous refund or reship policy because we are so confident in our shipping process.

When should I request to have the flowers arrive to me?

Some people are nervous about ordering wholesale flowers online because they think it’s too complicated to get flowers. First, we recommend placing your order 2-3 weeks before the event, but you can place an order two days before your event. The “requested delivery date” is the day your flowers will arrive.  All flower orders ship FedEx, next day, meaning they will ship the day before your requested delivery date. On the day of shipping, late afternoon, you will receive an email with a tracking number and approximate time of delivery. We do recommend having the flowers delivered two days before your event. For example, for a Saturday wedding, we recommend having the flowers delivered Thursday. Once the flowers arrive, prep the flowers and place them in water, let them hydrate overnight, and then you can put your arrangements together on Friday!

Do I have to buy a lot more flowers than I need because wholesale usually means large quantities?

People hear “wholesale” and immediately think “large quantities.” Most online wholesale flower companies offer their product in full box quantities, which often forces you to purchase at least 100 stems of the same flower. At Blooms by the Box, we offer small bunches of flowers, fillers, and greenery by the stem. Bunches typically include 5-10 stems, depending on the variety, and most products include price breaks for multiple bunches. We do offer bulk items if needed and premade wedding packs! You can get more flower variety with small quantities for your specific needs while still getting the right prices.
