Okay, so I put my foot in my mouth while simultaneously neglecting to remember my dear friend had just had major surgery. I knew I had to act quickly, and 'over-apologize' if there is such a thing. That's when I remembered having visited the good people at Bloomtastic florist to pick up an arrangement at the last minute for my Grandmother's funeral. That was over a year ago, and our family still gets compliments on the amazing arrangement Bloomtastic did for us. So there I was, stumped about what to do for my friend who needed a pick-me-up apology all the way out in Westerville. It was already 2pm and I sure as heck didn't want to fight traffic all afternoon, pick up some flowers, pick up a card, drive all the way to Westerville...Thank Goodness I still had Bloomtastic's number in my phone. And, you can imagine my relief to find out that not only did they deliver to Westerville, they would deliver Same Day!!! But how can I get a card? What about the personal touch? Amanda made it soooo easy. I sent her an email with my apologetic message filled with excuses and good wishes. Amanda asked about my friends tastes (modern, dramatic-if you asked me) And then she went to work creating something just absolutely perfect. The flowers included fushia gerbera daisies, red and yellow tulips and tropical greenery. The vase water was even colored to add a modern touch (perfectly matching my friends' described tastes). Talk about convenient, easy, quick and wonderful. Bloomtastic was all of that and more and I will certainly use them next time I put my foot in my mouth, or need to brighten someones' day (which probably needs brightened thanks to my putting my foot in my mouth!) Thanks, Bloomtastic! You guys are the best!
Pros: Wonderful display, same day delivery (affordable delivery rates!) Fresh Flowers for my tight budget!
