2. You can’t beat the flower selection. You can ensure that your gift is stunning because your local florist will have the freshest flowers available. Unlike buying a premade bouquet in a store, you can select flowers that are sure to make a great impression.
3. Same-day delivery saves the day. When an event sneaks up on you or you just want to brighten someone’s day, local florists have a wide variety of bouquets that can be delivered the same day.

4. Every arrangement is beautifully designed by a pro. Floral design is an art, and the florists that FTD partners with lovingly create each arrangement. You can be confident that your bouquet will be crafted with love.
5. Your purchase supports a local business. When you purchase flowers from an FTD partner, you’re helping to support the lifeblood of every community: a small business. When you build a relationship with your local florist, you are ensuring your dollars stay right in your town.
We’ve rounded up some charming bouquets — all available for same-day delivery — that anyone would be thrilled to receive. And when you place your order, you can feel good about the fact that your purchase is helping support a florist in your community.
The Classic Ivory Bouquet is a great example of a Florist Original Bouquet. It features the freshest blooms, all in ivory tones. While the flowers may vary from what is pictured above, you can rest assured that the bouquet will be stunning and will delight any friend or family member.
The Light of My Life Bouquet is a wonderful gift to send a dear friend or loved one. Among its bold blooms are pink lilies, blushing pastel orange roses, lavender cushion poms and hot pink carnations. The arrangement arrives with a clear vase and will add beauty to any space.
