Hear from Our Customers
You remember at 2 PM that tonight’s your anniversary. Or your colleague just got promoted and you want to send congratulations before the day ends. Maybe someone you care about is going through a tough time and needs to know you’re thinking of them.
That’s exactly why we exist. When you need fresh flowers delivered the same day in Two Bridges, we make it happen. No stress about whether they’ll arrive wilted or late. No wondering if the arrangement will look anything like what you ordered online.
You get flowers that arrive fresh, on time, and exactly as beautiful as you hoped. Because the people you care about deserve arrangements that show you put thought into the moment, even when time wasn’t on your side.
Columbia Midtown Florist has been serving Two Bridges and the surrounding Lower Manhattan area for years. We understand the unique challenges of flower delivery in this neighborhood—from navigating narrow streets to working with building doormen and understanding apartment access protocols.
Our florists source fresh flowers daily from New York’s wholesale flower markets. We know which varieties hold up best in NYC apartments and which arrangements work for everything from cramped studio spaces to luxury penthouses.
You’re not just another order number to us. When you call, you’re talking to people who live and work in this city, who understand that timing matters and quality can’t be compromised.
Place your order online or call us directly. We’ll ask about the occasion, your budget, and any specific preferences for colors or flower types. If you’re not sure what you want, our florists will guide you toward arrangements that work best for your situation.
Once we have your details, our team creates your arrangement using the freshest flowers available that day. We don’t pre-make arrangements and let them sit—everything is crafted specifically for your order.
Our delivery team knows Two Bridges inside and out. They coordinate with building staff, navigate the neighborhood efficiently, and ensure your flowers arrive in perfect condition. You’ll get confirmation when the delivery is complete, so you know your gesture reached its destination exactly as planned.

Whether you need a simple bouquet for a dinner date or elaborate arrangements for a corporate event, we handle orders of every size. Our flower shop stocks everything from classic roses and lilies to seasonal specialties and unique varieties you won’t find at grocery stores.
Two Bridges residents often need flowers for apartment housewarming parties, date nights in nearby restaurants, or to brighten up smaller living spaces. We design arrangements that work beautifully in urban settings—compact enough for city apartments but impressive enough to make an impact.
For businesses in the Financial District, we provide corporate arrangements, lobby displays, and event flowers. We understand the professional standards expected in Manhattan’s business environment and deliver arrangements that reflect that level of sophistication.
We accept same day flower delivery orders until 2 PM Monday through Friday, and until 12 PM on Saturdays. This gives our florists enough time to create your arrangement and our delivery team enough time to navigate Two Bridges traffic and building protocols.
For urgent orders after these cutoff times, call us directly. We can sometimes accommodate last-minute requests depending on our current workload and delivery schedule. Holiday periods like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day have earlier cutoff times, so plan accordingly during peak seasons.
Absolutely. Our delivery team is experienced with Two Bridges apartment buildings, including both newer luxury developments and older tenement-style buildings. We work directly with doormen, building management, and concierge services to ensure smooth deliveries.
For buildings without doorman service, we coordinate delivery times directly with recipients when possible. We’re familiar with the access procedures for most buildings in the neighborhood and can navigate the unique challenges that come with urban flower delivery in Lower Manhattan.
We always attempt to coordinate with the recipient or building staff first. If someone isn’t home, we’ll leave flowers with a trusted doorman or concierge when available. For buildings without these services, we’ll contact the recipient to arrange a better delivery time.
We don’t leave flowers unattended in hallways or outside apartment doors where they could be damaged or stolen. If we can’t complete the delivery safely, we’ll reschedule for a time that works better. Your flowers stay fresh in our shop until we can ensure proper delivery.
We source our flowers daily from New York’s wholesale flower markets, the same suppliers used by high-end Manhattan florists. Every arrangement is created the day it’s delivered, not pre-made and stored. This ensures maximum freshness and longevity.
Our florists inspect each stem before it goes into an arrangement. We only use flowers that meet our quality standards—fully hydrated, properly conditioned, and at the right stage of bloom. You’ll receive flowers that should last 7-10 days with proper care, sometimes longer depending on the variety.
Yes, custom arrangements are one of our specialties. Whether you need wedding bouquets, corporate event centerpieces, or sympathy arrangements, we work with you to create exactly what you envision. We discuss your color preferences, budget, venue requirements, and any specific flower requests.
For larger events, we recommend scheduling a consultation at least two weeks in advance. This gives us time to source any special varieties you want and ensures we can dedicate the proper time and attention to your custom pieces. Rush orders are possible but may have limited flower selection.
We offer weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly flower subscriptions for both residential and commercial customers. This is popular with Two Bridges residents who want fresh flowers regularly in their apartments and local businesses that want consistent lobby or office arrangements.
Subscription customers get priority scheduling and can customize their preferences over time. We learn what you like and adjust arrangements accordingly. You can pause, modify, or cancel subscriptions with advance notice. Corporate accounts also get simplified billing and dedicated customer service for their ongoing flower needs.
