I can not express how grateful my family and I for having Bruce and the additional staff assist with the floral arrangements for our loss.
I found a few Pinterest ideas and they did beyond why we expected. The selection of flowers were beautiful and well worth the value.
I will definitely continue to go there for any flower arrangements I may have in the future and will for sure recommend them to anyone.

We received a sympathy arrangement via 800flowers but it was made by Central Florist. Back in November we also received a sympathy bouquet (we lost 2 parents).
Both arrangements were bountiful with fresh flowers. The colors subtle and appropriate.
Job well done - twice.
Delivery drivers also very friendly. An added plus.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Nov 19, 2023Previous reviewReceived a very beautiful bereavement bouquet of a mix of fresh white flowers. The flowers arrived looking great and lasted a long time.
Dec 7, 2020Previous reviewI recently received a bouquet of flowers with a 'get well balloon' attached from this florist. My friend ordered it through 1800Flowers.
The arrangement is so darn cute. With white carnations the florist created a small dog which looks like it is sitting in a basket surrounded by other flowers and greenery.
This arrangement arrived fresh and is lasting a long time.
I had just come home from a second hospital stay and was feeling pretty low and in some pain. Receiving this arrangement put a big smile on my face and made my day.
I have another friend who is sick and just home from the hospital. I plan on calling Central Florist directly to order an arrangement to be delivered. - Cat R.Alameda, CA11171Apr 27, 2024

Bruce, Hamid, and the support crew here are so great!! I have gotten several bouquets in the last 6 months and they have been so gorgeous - they are so talented! I've also been able to share my budget and they have put together beautiful bouquets on the spot that fit my price point (I love going in the shop personally). Check out these flowers to celebrate a loved one's citizenship! He even added the bow - so thoughtful!

Today I received a gorgeous bouquet from Central Florist/1800 flowers, sent by Alex, Larry's older son, and his fiancée, Alina. Alex was very fond of Alan. We had known Alex and his brother Nick since our trip to France w/ Nina and Larry in 2004. I had met Alina two Thanksgivings ago and liked her a lot, so the connections here go deep. I was very touched by their thoughtfulness in sending the flowers. I was very impressed w/ the freshness, beauty and grace of the arrangement by Central Florist.

This place is awesome! I came in one afternoon requesting an anniversary arrangement. I spoke with Bruce, who was very professional and accommodating. I told him I wanted roses (of course!) and any other additions he would recommend within my price range. Bruce confirmed a time I could come back and pick up the finished product. He was on time and within budget. The arrangement was absolutely stunning! I will be back for sure.

I received a floral bouquet for my birthday from my in-laws who live out of state. Half of the arrangement were some sad looking daisies while the other half were carnations. There were 3 roses on one side but one of them was broken at the bud. Much of the filler greenery was already dying. Besides the sad state of the whole bouquet, it had to have been one of the most unimaginative, outdated arrangements I've ever seen. So bummed my in-laws spent their money on this.

I received the most beautiful set of flowers arranged by Central Florist that was ordered by an out-of-state friend! I love flowers, so I send and receive lots of them. The flowers by Central Florist are the most beautiful and freshest flowers I have ever received/sent/seen! The variety, color, quality, and freshness of the flowers are absolutely the best and spectacular. I am glad that now I've discovered Central Florist for my flower needs and to send flowers to friends and family. Also, Hamid and his staff from the flower shop have been extremely helpful and communicative as for the time of delivery and any questions regarding the flowers. The best flowers and flower shop ever - thank you! See the gorgeous photos from days 1-5, the flowers still look amazing and super fresh and every day a new one opens!
