A last-minute gift, a funeral on short notice, a wedding that needs flowers to survive a delivery van and still look perfect walking down the aisle: flower delivery in New York gets tested in very different ways. The five services on this page have logged 2,158 reviews between them, led by a Lower East Side shop alone holding 1,777 of them at 4.8 stars, and ratings across the group only range from 4.6 to 4.9.
Short answer: Flordel leads with a 4.8-star average across 1,777 reviews, the deepest review base of any florist on this list, known for reliable same-day delivery when ordered before 6PM. Élan Flowers (4.8 stars, 145 reviews) is the pick for weddings and events, and Wow Flower (4.9 stars) posts the highest rating in the group, though on a smaller sample.

Our take: Flordel ranks first mostly on scale: a 4.8 average holding up across 1,777 reviews is a much harder thing to pull off than the same score on a hundred. That volume, more than the rating itself, is why it's the safe default pick.

Our take: Élan earns second place on strong sentiment across a respectable review base, and the wedding and event reviews here are more detailed and specific than most florists get. If you're planning an event rather than sending a single bouquet, this is the one to call.

ManhattanFlorist.com
4.7★★★★★106 Google reviews
ManhattanFlorist.com is a Chinatown florist and plant nursery run by owner Henry, selling everything from funeral arrangements to houseplants and potting soil out of a small Bayard Street storefront. It's a hands-on, in-person operation as much as a delivery service, and reviewers describe walking in with a photo or an idea and leaving with something built around it.
What people praise
- Henry is named across multiple reviews as patient, knowledgeable and hands-on with each order
- Reviewers praise the shop's plant selection and care advice alongside cut flowers
- Funeral arrangement clients highlight the team calling ahead to confirm details like name spelling
- 89 of the shop's 106 reviews are five-star
Worth knowing
- It's a small Chinatown storefront rather than a citywide delivery operation, so it may suit local or walk-in orders better than a rush delivery across boroughs

4.6★★★★★84 Google reviews
City Blossoms is a women-owned floral design studio in the Financial District that's been operating for more than 30 years, offering same-day delivery in Manhattan and Brooklyn alongside weddings, events, corporate accounts and weekly flower subscriptions.

- A same-day birthday delivery to a restaurant is described as flexible and well-communicated, with confirmation calls both ways
- Wedding and event clients highlight detailed style-sheet planning before the big day
Worth knowing

Our take: City Blossoms ranks fourth on a slightly lower average than the florists above it, weighed down in part by that one detailed style-mismatch review. Worth noting: the owner's response, taking responsibility and following through on a refund, is itself a reasonable signal about how the business handles a miss.

Our take: Wow Flower posts the best raw rating in this group, 4.9, but on the smallest review base of the five. It ranks last here on volume alone; on quality per review, it could be the strongest performer on the page.

Claim this spot › How we rank these florists
Rating is each shop’s live Google average out of five stars. Review volume measures how many customers actually left a rating, ranked against the rest of the pool. Confidence combines the two, so a high rating on 1,777 reviews counts for more than the same score on 46. Recency tracks how recently people are still leaving reviews, a sign the shop’s quality holds up. No florist paid for a better position; only the Featured badge, where used, is ever for sale.
How much does flower delivery cost in New York (2026)?
Pricing depends heavily on arrangement size, season and delivery zone, and most of these florists quote per order rather than off a published price list. One Wow Flower customer reported an $85 total for a delivered bouquet, which lines up with the mid-range end of what a full, hand-arranged piece typically runs in Manhattan, though your own quote will vary by occasion and add-ons like balloons or same-day rush fees.
Flower delivery across New York
These five florists cover a real spread of the city: the Lower East Side, Tribeca, Chinatown, the Financial District and Chelsea, with delivery reaching into Brooklyn and Queens from several of them. If you’re searching for flower delivery near me in New York, check each shop’s delivery zone and same-day cutoff time before you order, since those cutoffs range from early afternoon to 6PM.
What to ask before you order flower delivery
- What’s your cutoff time for same-day delivery today?
- Do you deliver to the specific borough or zip code I need?
- Can I see a photo of the actual arrangement style before you deliver it?
- What happens if the recipient isn’t home when you arrive?
- Is there an extra charge for rush delivery or a specific delivery window?
- For weddings or events, how far in advance do you need a style brief?
Frequently asked questions
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from public Google data: rating, review volume, recency and consistency. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another florist’s score or position.
How did you choose these five florists?
We pulled New York flower-delivery businesses with a meaningful Google review presence, then ranked the shortlist by a blend of rating, review volume and how recently people are still reviewing them.
How often is this page updated?
We refreshed the data in July 2026. Ratings and review counts change over time, so check each florist’s live Google listing for the most current numbers.
Can any of these florists handle a same-day order?
Flordel, City Blossoms and Wow Flower all advertise same-day delivery with a same-day cutoff, so check each site’s exact time before you place a late order.
Which of these is best for a wedding?
Élan Flowers and City Blossoms both have detailed wedding and event review histories, including style-guide planning and full floral design rather than single bouquets.
The bottom line
For a reliable, no-fuss delivery today, Flordel’s review volume makes it the safest bet. If you’re planning a wedding or event, start the conversation with Élan Flowers or City Blossoms well before the date, since both work from style guides that take time to get right.
