I received an arrangement of the most beautiful orange gerbera daisies & hydrangea this afternoon from someone very special..... They took my breath away, actually....on several different levels. They were unusual. They were healthy and fresh. The quality of the vase was out of the ordinary. The woman who delivered my flowers was so sweet ...and I will never forget her saying, "You're one lucky lady!" She's right there! Then I called the florist to tell them how breathtaking the flowers were.....spoke to Janelle....lovely again! And, based on what she told me, she followed very specific 'instructions' for the flowers..... I'm 57, as I told her, and I have sung all of my life on stages all over the world. I've received a couple of flower arrangements in my life. But these flowers surpassed most every arrangement (if not ALL) I have ever received! THEY ARE STUNNING! Not to mention the fact that I live in southeast Austin....and they are located on Burnet Road.....sorta takes 'going the extra mile' to a new level, wouldn't You say? King Florist of Austin is a keeper....and then some!

I found King of Yelp and they had great reviews and a coupon so I gave them a call. My sister's birthday was the following day and the designer was able to recommend an arrangement that my sister absolutely loved. She sent me a picture (since I live in Washington) and they certainly looked beautiful.

"I always shop local, so I called King Florist to order some flowers for my daughter's birthday.  I had no idea what I wanted to send, but the King Florist team reccomended a design called "Love Spray" that was perfect for my daughter!  Simple, beautiful, and sophisticated!  She absolutely LOVED it.

"My name is Brenda Mallory and I orders flowers last week to be delivered to my fathers service, Ron Clark, on Saturday.  I just want to take a moment to thank you for the beautiful arrangements you put together for our family.  The vase idea for the sign - in book was fabulous and seemed to be a one-of-a-kind.  I can not thank you enough for the way you assisted me in making the decisions then the creation of these amazing arrangements.  Thank you for taking care of our family during a weak time and thank you for understanding our needs then exceeding them.

I appreciate everyone at King Florist and wish you all the best! God Bless!"

“My daughter sent me some flowers two weeks ago when I was feeling under the weather. They were the most beautiful flowers that I have ever received! This week I needed to send a gift to my friend to cheer her up. The first thing that I thought of was King Florist. I knew that they would take special care of my order. They delivered once again on beauty, quality, and that extra special touch.“

“I received some flowers from my co-workers while in the hospital this week. Your flowers really brightened up my room and my spirits! My hospital stay was extended for a few days and the flowers still look just as beautiful as they did when they arrived. Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful arrangement!”

“We needed to send flowers to a memorial service this November. My first thought was to send a traditional standing spray. When I called up King Florist, they made a suggestion to create a European Basket that would be more unique. When I arrived at the service I knew immediately which arrangement was ours! It was so so beautiful and really stood out next to all the other flowers. Thank you King Florist Team for your great suggestions and your consistent wonderful customer service!”

“I wanted to send a beautiful arrangement for a “Just Because.” I called up King Florist and really had no idea what I wanted to send. The team there is amazing! They were able to tell me what was the most beautiful and fresh in the store and created a one of a kind arrangement just for me. The best part was that they didn't over complicate things and made it very easy for me to visualize what I would be sending. Thank You King Florist, always awesome!”

(From a client currently serving in Iraq.  He’s been sending his girlfriend flowers while serving our country.  What a guy!)

"I just wanted to send you a thank you email. I've been in Iraq and sending my girl friend soon to be fiancé flower's this past year from your store/website and everything I've looked at on your website was "Amazing". 

I won't lie, I looked at other florists in the Austin area and none of them caught my attention as your flower's have. My girlfriend loves them every time I send them to her, the girl's at her job get jealous which can be good but bad at the same time...lol.

Well thank you for your service's, as my Deployment comes to an end I will try and buy flower's from your store still but I don't get on the Computer all that much when I'm at home. Once again Thank you for serving me!"

"OMG...What a great place!!! The staff is amazing, and the floral designs are just fantastic! My husband would always bring home roses and I was so burnt out, that I haven't had a rose in My house for over 8 months..... that is until King florist! I never received the same design twice. They were so amazing that, now every time We want to surprise someone, We call King Florist. We recommend everyone to call King Florist and just be amazed by Benoit and His genius staff. The Best Floral Designers in Town!!"

"I just placed an order with them because we have received 3 orders (various family members) in last 4 months and every single arrangement that came had people just raving over them. Their design is SO chic, so NOT old school look and gorgeous and elegant. They are so fresh because they've lasted up to 2 wks. I was actually excited to spend money there today!"

"Not often do I find a place of business that makes me want to give a positive review. That being said, King Florist has changed that completely! Last week my wife had a special event in which she was honored and received an Excellence Award from the University. I wanted to get her something a little special and some flowers she could share with her office. As I clicked around online I found lots of florist in Austin doing the exact same thing as the next shop. Through recommendation, I viewed the King Florist website and I knew this was the place I had to order her flowers from. The designs were like nothing else online and with the prices comparable to any other site I had been to. Not only did they work with me to complete the order online, they also followed up by phone for final details. Later on that day, I received a call from my wife telling me how beautiful the arrangement was and how exceptional it made her feel. She also pointed out that "Fresh Design" and "Rich Materials" where complements she heard people in the office use to describe the arrangement throughout the week. Thanks again to King Florist for making an already special day a touch more memorable."

"My experience with King Florist was great from start to finish. My mother ordered flowers for me for my birthday and she said that the employee went above and beyond over the phone to help her order the *perfect* arrangement. She made some great suggestions and took the time to describe the various arrangements available. My flowers were delivered on time by a very nice and professional delivery person. The flowers were exactly what my mother had ordered and I have gotten so many compliments from coworkers. This is the most beautiful arrangement I have ever received and I would recommend friends and family to King Florist...you will get exactly what you order and their customer service is above and beyond many other florists in town...I only wish I had known about them for my wedding!"

"I have used several florists in the Austin areas but none were ever as consistent as King Florist.

Whenever I call (I'm sorry, V-Day, Anniversary, etc.) they are ready to help. Not only do they help me pick an arrangement but they keep track of previous orders so I don't accidentally duplicate one (big plus for forgetful folks like myself).

The greatest thing about King is the enjoyment my wife gets from the arrangements. From the envy of her coworkers to the longevity of the flowers, she is one happy camper."

"To my delight, I have been the recipient of many beautiful floral deliveries from my perfect husband. Sent by his big heart, but created by King Florist, the flowers have wowed and swooned me. Every bouquet has taken my breath away. The creative deigns are unique and the flowers perfect in every detail. I appreciate the special touches that are added to the arrangements, like peacock feathers tucked into a stunning array of tulips, or a delicious box of chocolates with enough to share with my co-workers. My husband and I married only a year ago after a very quick courtship. It makes me wonder to what extent King Florist had to play with the two if us falling in love. Thank you for helping my birthday, first-date anniversary, Valentines and so many other special times a happy and memorable event."

"King Florist Rocks! I called several other Austin florists and none of them wanted to deliver flowers to my sick friend who needed cheering up. All I asked for is a large bunch of Dutch tulips in a vase anchored with stones delivered the next day. What was delivered was so beautiful that my friend said she had to touch them to be sure they were real because they were so perfect. King Florist designed a beautiful arrangement around my request, delivered it on time and called me to confirm the delivery had been made. They definitely cheered up my friend and gained a loyal customer."

"Until my experience with King Florist, I resent going to a florist because most of the florist in town offers you nothing more than a fresh cut flowers in a vase and cost you $70-100. For a similar cost as others, King Florist fixed me up with designer's floral arrangement that's stunting to those appreciates the real artistic side of the flower arrangements. I'm telling you, their floral arrangements are something you would only find in a floral books and magazines covers. If you want to impress your companion with wow's, this is the place."

"This morning I woke up, and knew I had to do something.  To express myself to someone near and so dear to my soul.  Texting, IMing, myspacing, craigslisting and even yelping secret messages back and forth was not going to do it this time.  This was my final attempt to clearly get things off my chest and show this sparkle of my heart what she meant to me.  I looked up some reviews of florists and King's was consistently in the 5 star category (if a little on the pricey side).  But understand this, frugal is fine for day to day, especially in this economy, but when you have a once in a lifetime, last effort, need-to-show someone how perfect they are, you don't skimp.  I chose the flowers.  I stayed clear of roses, since I wanted this person to know how complete my love for her was, and not just romantic.  They had exactly what I wanted.  Deep vivid red tulips, purple irises (the first kind I ever got her) and some great white snap dragons.  The florist also suggested another white flower, but the name eludes me.  They asked when I needed it, and I told them 9 days ago would have been good, but I'd settle for ASAP.  I went to the gym, home to shower, and back in and the arrangement was a perfect reflection of the object of my desire.  The colors went together perfectly, the vase, the river rocks.  They even had a handy box stand so I could take it over in my car without tipping them over.  So, even though I choked on my words, I believe the flowers spoke perfectly.  It didn't go so well for me, but King's gave it all they had and at least one of us was very successful."

"I am an Austinite living abroad and have had occasion to order flowers for friends several times in the last year. King Florist has the most unusual designs and an easy to use website. My friends to whom I have sent the flowers have been thrilled with their gifts, which is all I could ask for and more."

"My office staff all chipped in an AMAZINGLY beautiful arrangement for our manager for Boss's Day. Our delivery arrived 1st thing this morning (9:30ish) and we were all amazed at the creativity and artistry that obviously went into our "masterpiece"! A uniquely shaped vase, with beautiful bluish-grey stones at the bottom, and an assortment of flowers. And I don't mean your typical--daisies, roses & carnations. I mean beautiful flowers in lovely fall/earthy colors--far more stunning that the every day variety. I was very pleased with my experience from start to finish and recommend them HIGHLY!"

"Cats, the difference between wowing her with flowers and getting only the sentimental "at least he made the effort" is the florist.  Unique arrangements and attention to detail...King is the place in Austin."

"I have been getting my flowers at King florist since I moved to Austin in 2004. I really like the friendly folks in the store and the fact that if you have the time, you can watch your bouquet being made. Mostly I used to call in most of my orders until I got on their website and now, I go online for my orders. My favorite is the "Moulin Rouge," and the "Rose Cube." It's as simple as look, add to cart and pay. The best part is that the bouquet looks just as good when it gets to my door as on the picture and my wife has not been disapointed so far. I would not dream of getting my flowers anywhere else."

"Holy mother load of floral arrangements. I have been brought to my knees (almost) by the flowers these guys deliver. I cannot tell you the beauty, intrinsic artfulness, and style that come with a beautiful arrangement by them. In fact, these guys are so good, people actually walk up to you and ask "are those from King?" MMM-hmm, sugar! They sure are!"

"I ordered by phone from San Francisco, to a friend in Austin. They were very helpful, friendly, patient and professional. My friend loved the arrangement so much she called me instantly and sent me a picture via cell phone. I highly recommend and will use again in the future!"

"If you are looking for a no hassle, last minute florist with an extremely professional experience, then King Florist is the shop you should use. I called with less than 24 hour notice and requested 34 dozen roses. I also told the shop that "I may need them, but I would call with a 1.5 hour notice." Not only did they agree to these terms, but King Florist was extremely professional, pleasant, and on time. I give them the highest recommendation possible."

"Thanks to King Florist's "can do" attitude, I was able to get a bouquet delivered to cheer up my daughter at her workplace"
