Hear from Our Customers
Life in Midtown East doesn’t wait. Anniversaries sneak up. Apologies can’t be postponed. Client meetings need that extra touch. You’re not looking for excuses about why something can’t get there—you need confirmation that it will.
Same-day flower delivery in Manhattan isn’t just about speed. It’s about getting fresh arrangements that actually look like what you ordered, delivered to the right person at the right address, without the usual runaround that comes with most online flower shops.
When you order from a flower store that’s actually located in Midtown East, you’re working with florists who understand building protocols, doorman procedures, and the reality of getting into a Midtown office before 5 PM. We’re at 3 West 51st Street. We source fresh flowers every morning. We make every arrangement here. And we deliver it ourselves—no third-party handoffs, no wondering if it’ll show up wilted.
Columbia Midtown Florist isn’t some warehouse operation pretending to be local. We’re in the heart of Midtown East because that’s where our customers are—and where most deliveries need to go.
We’ve been serving Manhattan professionals, corporate clients, and residents who expect their flower delivery to actually happen when promised. Our shop handles everything from weekly corporate lobby arrangements to last-minute birthday bouquets to full wedding production. We’ve worked with film sets, Fortune 500 offices, and people who just need to send flowers to someone they care about.
Midtown isn’t just our delivery zone. It’s where we live and work. We know the pace, the expectations, and what it takes to get flowers delivered right the first time.
You place an order online or call our shop directly. If it’s before noon on a weekday, we’ll deliver same day throughout Manhattan below 100th Street. If it’s after that, we’ll get it there the next business day.
Once your order comes in, our florists design and arrange it fresh in our Midtown shop. No pre-made boxes. No bulk arrangements sitting in a cooler since yesterday. Every flower shop should work this way, but most online companies don’t—they outsource to whoever’s available, and quality becomes a gamble.
We deliver using our own team. They know which buildings require calls ahead, which lobbies accept deliveries at the desk, and how to navigate Midtown traffic without turning a 10-minute trip into an hour-long disaster. You’ll get a confirmation when it’s delivered. If there’s an issue—wrong address, recipient not available, building won’t accept it—we contact you immediately instead of leaving you wondering.

Every arrangement starts with fresh flowers sourced that morning from New York’s wholesale flower district. We’re not cutting corners with half-wilted stems or filler that looks cheap in person. If you’re spending money on flowers for sale, they should last more than two days.
Our florists specialize in hand-tied bouquets, vase arrangements, orchid delivery, and custom designs for corporate clients. If you’re ordering for an office, we handle weekly or monthly delivery schedules. If it’s for a wedding or event, we’ll walk through your vision and manage setup on-site.
Midtown East has some of the highest standards in the city—your clients, your colleagues, and your loved ones expect quality. That’s why corporate flower delivery here isn’t just about showing up. It’s about showing up with arrangements that photograph well, last through the week, and don’t embarrass the person who sent them. We also work with hotels, hospitals, and event venues throughout Manhattan, so if your delivery involves navigating building security or coordinating with event staff, we’ve done it before.
If you order by noon Monday through Friday, we’ll deliver same day anywhere in Manhattan below 100th Street. That includes Midtown East, Midtown West, the Financial District, Upper East Side, and most other neighborhoods where our customers need flowers delivered.
After noon, your order gets delivered the next business day. Weekends have different schedules depending on volume, so if you’re ordering Saturday or Sunday, call the shop directly at our Midtown location to confirm timing.
The reason we can guarantee same-day delivery is because we’re physically located in Midtown East at 3 West 51st Street. We’re not coordinating with a network of random florists across the city. Every arrangement is made here, and our delivery team leaves directly from our shop. That’s how we control quality and timing.
Yes. Most of our deliveries go to office buildings, hotels, and corporate locations throughout Midtown. Our drivers know the area—which buildings require advance calls, which lobbies accept deliveries at the front desk, and how to work with doormen and security teams who take their jobs seriously.
If you’re sending flowers to someone’s office, include their full name, company name, floor number, and a phone number if possible. The more detail you give us, the smoother the delivery goes. If the recipient isn’t available or the building won’t accept the delivery, we’ll contact you right away instead of just leaving.
Hotels are straightforward as long as you provide the guest’s name and room number. We deliver to most major hotels in Midtown Manhattan, and our team knows how to coordinate with concierge desks. If you’re sending flowers for a special occasion and want them waiting in the room, let us know when you order.
Every arrangement is made fresh in our Midtown flower shop by florists who’ve been doing this for years. We don’t use pre-packed boxes or bulk arrangements that get shipped from a warehouse. What you see on our website is what gets designed and delivered.
If a specific flower isn’t available that day—seasonal availability changes, especially with certain roses or specialty blooms—we’ll substitute with something comparable in color and style. We won’t downgrade quality or swap a premium flower for cheap filler. If you have strong preferences or restrictions, add a note when you order or call us directly.
The bigger issue with most online flower delivery services is that they’re not actually local. They take your order, send it to whatever florist is available in the area, and hope for the best. Quality becomes inconsistent because you’re dealing with a different shop every time. When you order from Columbia Midtown Florist, you’re ordering from the same florists who’ll make and deliver your arrangement. That’s how we keep things consistent.
Yes. Wedding flowers and corporate event arrangements are a big part of what we do. We handle everything from small intimate weddings to large corporate events, including setup, delivery, and teardown if needed.
For weddings, we start with a consultation to go over your vision, color palette, venue, and budget. We work with venues throughout Manhattan and coordinate directly with your event team to make sure everything’s handled on the day. Bridal bouquets, boutonnieres, centerpieces, ceremony arrangements—we manage all of it.
Corporate events are similar. If you need flowers for a product launch, gala, conference, or office party, we’ll design arrangements that fit the space and the tone of the event. We also offer weekly or monthly corporate flower delivery for offices, lobbies, and reception areas. A lot of companies in Midtown East use us for ongoing service because we’re local, reliable, and easy to work with. If you want to discuss a specific event, call our flower shop directly so we can walk through details.
We deliver throughout Manhattan below 100th Street. That covers Midtown East, Midtown West, Chelsea, the Financial District, Tribeca, SoHo, the Upper East Side, the Upper West Side, and most other neighborhoods where people need same-day flower delivery.
If you’re ordering for an address above 100th Street or outside Manhattan, call us. We can sometimes accommodate deliveries in other parts of the city depending on timing and availability, but our primary delivery zone is Manhattan below 100th.
The advantage of working with a florist located in Midtown is speed and reliability. We’re centrally located, so most deliveries are within a few miles of our shop. That means faster turnaround, fewer delays, and better quality control compared to flower delivery services that operate out of distant warehouses or rely on third-party couriers who don’t know the area.
