Belle Fleur

Simply one of the BEST florists in all of Manhattan. When you get a box from Belle Fleur wrapped with flowers inside you’re in for a real treat. I’ve never been disappointed. Yes they’re pricey but for a few more dollars you’re sending someone a gem of a bouquet.
Bravo Belle Fleur! And thank you for being so damn good at what you do!!!

If you are closed, because of Labor Day, just say that on your recording! I needed a rush order and kept calling like an idiot. It’s now the following day, you should be open. So where is my call back that I asked for? Don’t want my business? No problem guys!

Just ordered a $ 100 arrangement from them that was delivered to recipient for bday and although she was happy with the gesture I was embarrassed with what was sent… Considering I ordered over phone I did not know or obviously see examples of what is put together but trusted it should be fine considering the florist is on 5^th ave… I should have ordered off of 1 – 800 flowers for for the $ thats how embarrassing this place is… My fault for not going in myself. They also charge a $ 25 delivery fee. So $ 135 arrangement was extremely small you can go somewhere else or just give the arrangement yourself to avoid $ 25 delivery fee… Not worth the $ at all

I came to Belle Fleur on a friend’s recommendation after I was disappointed by boring, unimaginative quotes from a few other florists for my wedding. We had a small event with a City Hall ceremony and an evening dinner, and I needed flowers for myself and my maid of honor, and the groom and his best man, and then arrangements for the restaurant. I didn’t want the flowers to overshadow us or our meal, but I wanted them to be more interesting than just some roses or orchids.
At our first meeting with Ashley, I felt like she immediately understood us. she came up with a dozen creative, exciting ideas on the spot just from hearing a description of our event; she was very open to hearing what we had to say and easily adapted if I said I didn’t like something she’d suggested.
We ended up with arrangements that included interesting, seasonal garden-​style flowers like ranunculus and dahlias, as well as fresh plums and grapes — they were absolutely stunning. Our personal flowers were presented in such a thoughtful way — the men each got 2 boutonnieres, a fresh one for ceremony and for dinner since there was a long time between the two, and my maid of honor ended up with a beautiful pin for her hair rather than a sad little bouquet or corsage.
The price was absolutely fair — not cheap, but even so, less expensive than some of the cookie-​cutter florists I talked to. Worth every single penny.

I met with Belle Fleur for my wedding floral arrangements. I was very clear about my budget when we met and they made me feel confident they could work within my range. I was impressed by their creativity and «getting» my style and was excited to receive their proposal, however when I did, it was for more than double the budget I provided. I am not the type of bride that is willing to double my budget for anything, much less flowers. I am having a small, intimate wedding and my budget was sufficient for several other florists that I met with. Since I did like their ideas, I requested they revise the proposal and see what they could come up with closer to my budget. They were polite about it and assured me they would get back to me and then never did. I thought this was extremely unprofessional and could have been handled in a better way. It would have been better to tell me if the budget was not high enough to take the job but to say you will get back to me and never follow up is just rude. In a city with many talented florist, I would recommend taking your business elsewhere.

I came to Belle Fleur just before Valentine’s Day — an event where I hear it’s traditional to buy flowers.
As guy, it’s not every day I receive floral arrangements, and while I like to think I have decent taste I was a bit out of my depth on this one. I really appreciate the time Belle Fleur took to walk me through my options, even though I was working on very short notice. The final product was beautiful, heads and shoulders above the canned arrangements other places stock before Vday. I’ll be back for the next special occasion.

I worked with Ashley for my wedding. I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted and she was extremely helpful, creative, professional, fun to work with, patient and enthusiastic in developing a concept, working within a budget and throughout the whole process. She personally took care of everything on the big day. The flowers for my wedding were beyond perfect. I loved every single detail. She’s the best. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I received an arrangement from Belle Fleur and OH … MY … GOD!!! I am not a girly girl. I am not the kind of person who typically flips for flowers. And I am certainly not a flower connoisseur. But even I could appreciate that this was not your typical arrangement. It was absolutely beautiful — it contained flowers that I never would have thought to put together. The result was a completely breathtaking assortmentt of flowers with the most fabulous texture. I have no clue who at Belle Fluer put that thing together, but all I can say is KUDOS! If you truly want to impress someone with flowers, this is the place to go.
The only negative? I didn’t pay for this arrangement, but I was told that Belle Fleur is UBER expensive. On the bright side, you certainly get your money’s worth!

Working with Ashley from Belle Fleur meant that I could describe my big picture vision of my personal bridal flowers, and confidently trust her to run with the creative details. I was married in the fall, and wanted a color palette very *non* autumnal fire. So I described what I did want for my personal bridal party flowers: deep wines, lush vibrant raspberries and a touch of soft whispery blushes, in an organic arrangement with garden roses, peonies, ranunculus, among others. Ashley totally ran with the concept and then some, all within the agreed upon budget, suggesting additional flowers and foliage and putting together a mini bouquet to show me where it was heading. Seeing her taste level and experience at that point, I gladly gave her creative license, and am completely satisfied that I did, from a creative as well as non-​stress, super organized standpoint. Upon delivery, I was very happy with the bouquets and boutonnieres, and also received so many compliments about them. They were gorgeous! The one minus point is that my husband’s (the groom’s) bouttonniere didn’t quite make it through the night, as the bud completely fell off its wrapped stem at some point during dinner. (But maybe he hugged so many people as the day progressed that it didn’t stand a chance.)

I give a VERY low rating to this flower shop. I spent over $ 100 on an arrangement that was no taller than 6 inches and was full of basic flowers. Their product was so boring! Their website is very deceiving. I was so embarrassed when I saw the flowers I had delivered to someone. It is 100% not worth the money. Additionally, my flowers did not get delivered to the recipient until 5pm when they were ordered with at least 24 hours notice. Go somewhere else… there was nothing top notch about Belle Fleur. There are so many better spots in the city.

beautiful flowers that didn’t last as long as i expected. however, the owner meredith, personally called me and wanted me to be satisfied, so she is replacing the arrangement with an orchid.
only caveat is that fresh flowers are only expected to last 4 days, especially in this weather and heated apartments.

Belle Fleur is my favorite florist in the city and I have tried many of the top florists (ZeZe, Plaza, Takashimaya, etc.) and I have to say that they do an outstanding job. Most of my clients are super chic, fashionable, and obsessed with design. The last thing I want to send to these people is either a gaudy arrangement that would look awful in their perfectly decorated apartments or to spend a ton of money and have some teeny tiny arrangement sent that makes me look like I cheaped out. Belle Fleur sends the right amount of flowers — always in a super attractive arrangement… and often with a few exotic flowers thrown in that most people have never seen before. I have literally called them with random requests like — please make sure the flowers will match a Robin’s Egg Blue couch or make the flowers look like something in an Armani store (which is what that clients office looked like) and it was done perfectly every time. I really always feel confident that Belle Fleur will send the right message on my behalf to a very discerning group of people. They rock!

I agree very much the Nadia F.‘s assessment. We ended up using them for our wedding because I liked their style the best of all the florists we saw. But many of my ideas we met with strange looks and a pretentious attitude. They are very rigid with their style and ideas. Also, creativity was somewhat lacking. Yes, my flowers were beautiful, but I ended up with mostly roses in my bridesmaid bouquets (are there really no other lilac hued flowers available in the spring?). We also felt they were slightly overpriced.
I was happy with how my flowers turned out, but I later went to other weddings with a similar color scheme to mine and their arrangements were gorgeous and unique with unexpected flower choices (not just roses and lilies — and I know they paid the same, or even less, than we did!). I regret not shopping around a bit more. Another friend of mine met with them when she was planning her wedding and felt the same pretentious vibe. She went with a different florist and her arrangements were stunning. Smart girl!

I am sure they do flowers well, but I didn’t much care for the attitude.
Look, one of the florists was featured in a recent spread in some big bridal magazine — so they obviously do their job well. However, after having visited them and comparing them to other florists in a similar price-​range. well, they were not so creative. Also, they were not exactly listening to what I said, and they seemed a tad pretentious.
Honestly, they were probably one of the more reasonably priced florists for the quality of décor you would be getting, but I just did not pick them because I felt no bond with the florist on a personal level.
My advice: Go check out the place, meet the florist and see if he or she ”gets you”. They are a good company, so there is tremendous potential there. If they do not see eye to eye with what you want at your wedding … well, there are many more creative options for florists in the city.

Their flowers are very beautiful but be prepared they only do «monochromatic arrangements.» I didnt’ use them for that reason. I like variety.

Fair on pricing and absolutely gorgeous arrangements. They do incredible work and I personally would recommend them highly whether you’re looking for flowers for business or personal purposes.
