Everyone loves to have a flower delivery to mark their special occasion but how do you do it when you do not live in the same state as the person that is going to receive the flowers? You can have flowers delivered anywhere in the country for any occasion that you can think of and it is actually pretty simple to do. There are two ways that you can accomplish an out of state delivery of flowers.
The first way to do this is by visiting your local flower shop. Then explain to the florist your situation about needing a way to send flowers out of state. They will then walk you through the process. First you will need to decide on how much you would like to spend on the arrangement you are sending. This will help narrow down what you can actually send. The next thing the florist will help you with is what types of flowers you want to incorporate.
Some florist will have flower books that show you pictures of pre-made arrangements that you can choose from but you can also choose the arrangement based on the flowers you want. For example you can tell your florist that you want the flowers to be 100% red roses with baby breaths and that is what the recipient will receive. You can mix it up a bit and request that you have 50% of multi-colored carnations with the rest to be filler flowers to be decided by the florist.
Once you have that figured out then you will need to determine what type of holder you would like for the flowers. You can choose from a traditional vase or perhaps a more unique container that can be used again like a decorative bowl. Then you will need to address whether you want to add any decorations to the arrangement. They usually offer balloons, ribbons, or bows for an added celebratory touch. Once you have all these items your local florist will send the order to a florist in the area where the recipients lives.
This florist will then tell you there delivery fees and request the date that you want the flower delivery to occur. You will then pay your local florist for the arrangement and they will then send the payment to the other florist. Many of these florist work together through networking or a common franchise company.
You may want to ask whether you can include the tip for the driver who will actually do the delivery. This way your recipient will not need to or be unprepared to tip the driver. One other thing you should also include with the delivery instructions is whether the driver can leave them if the person is not at home at the time they try to deliver them. Many times people allow the driver to leave them on the front porch or perhaps in a patio. The other way to have your flower delivery done out of state is by ordering them online, it works exactly the same way.
