What happens after you order

We route your order to a vetted florist partner near Makinen, one of 10,000+ shops in our nationwide network.
The florist designs your arrangement from our recipe with fresh, in-stock stems. If a stem is unavailable, they substitute one of equal or greater value in the same style and color palette.
A real person hand-delivers it to the door, the funeral home or the hospital desk, in water rather than a shipping box.
If no partner can take the order (this is rare), we refund you in full and tell you right away. Every order carries our 100% Smile Guarantee.
