The day I had called in they had a last minute, really big project.
——-
I spoke with a lady briefly about a bouquet I had in mind (I didn't tell her why I wanted it, but I shouldn't have to): something bright, sunny, & maybe something with fall elements. To be honest I don't know exactly what I wanted, but I wanted someone to talk it out with me and help me choose. Whatever it was it needs to be special. I gave her my budget: $80-$100. To bad for me-- she didn't seem to want to make something custom. In fact it also seemed to frustrate her that I also asked it be done today too (It was 1pm).
Her response: "Come check out what we have in the cooler."
Found out yesterday that my grandma is sick, not a good kind either. All I wanted to do is show a gesture of kindness by getting something meaningful. I find seasonal flowers might not be the most creative idea, but they will go a long way for her.
I went to Flowers by Leroy instead. They both answered right away and made something that was done within the hour. They even added a special message on the card because me doing that would be too hard to do right now. I felt really taken care of, and not like I was going to Safeway.
Ordered from out of town. My daughter sent me a picture. SO very disappointed. I could have bought a nicer arrangement for half the price @Safeway, or the side of the road.
I mean come on... is this a grocery store? I don't think my request was unreasonable. I feel like it's reasonable that I didn't get a call back (people eat lunch I get it), but if I want something special. Make something special for me. I mean if it's that hard for you, just lie to me-- take something from your silly cooler, add some flowers, and TELL ME it was custom.
Update: Vicky & Co. really went out of their way to make something special for my grandma. I could barely fit the bouquet into my car. It was such a great gesture. They are without question the best in Rapid City. Don’t think, just use them.
I'm really frustrated with Victoria's Garden. I tried calling this business to place an order for those flowers-- they didn't answer. I left a message and waited to hear back. After around an hour I tried calling again; this time someone picked up.
Melanie knows what she is doing so call her now and trust her. Thank you Melanie your amazing.
I brought in a few pictures as an idea for an arrangement, and the designers helped me put together a bouquet that looked even better than the photos. They were able to get it done in a couple hours while I ran some errands. I love their retail area as well!
Vicki was amazing at helping me determine the best flowers for my wedding....as I felt I had no idea what I was doing but had a look I was going for. They were amazing! They lasted forever and am so grateful and happy I chose to go with Victoria's Garden in Rapid City for my wedding flowers! I don't have pictures yet...I'll post on the Facebook page once I have them.
