Though many of our texts are silly and hilarious, the text stream is also filled with a lot of “real life” moments when one of us is facing something challenging. The group always rallies and sends lots of support their way and one of the things we like to do is send care packages, flowers or other small gifts to someone who needs a little extra love.
Flowers are obviously a go-to because they’re beautiful and tend to make everyone smile. My friend Cherayne turned our group onto flowers from The Bouqs Company a while ago and they’ve been our go-to flower delivery service ever since, thanks to their affordability and absolutely gorgeous assortment of flowers.
(Tip: We love the Venmo app for reimbursing each other for stuff like this! It makes paying friends back SUPER easy!)
When I received and email from Bouqs.com, I knew immediately I wanted to share a little bit about them with you guys, especially with Valentine’s Day right around the corner. (FYI, Bouqs.com offers a dozen roses for Valentine’s Day for $40. A total steal if you’re looking for roses on February 14.)
What attracted me to The Bouqs Company and what has kept me and my friends returning to the site time and time again is the price (everything is very affordable, there’s no up-selling and shipping is always free) and the bouquets offered vary from beautiful traditional bouquets to more original, whimsical bouquets with more of a farmer’s market bouquet feel.
The Bouqs Company’s flowers are grown on the side of an active volcano in Ecuador, so the additional sunshine and mineral-rich soil makes for more vibrant and beautiful flowers. They’re grown at sustainable, eco-friendly farms that follow strict responsible farming practices and are third-party certified by Veriflora and The Rainforest Alliance.
The bouquets you see on Bouqs.com are hand-crafted, custom designs by local artisan florists. Flowers are cut the day you order them and shipped directly to your door the next day so you receive them quickly and they last longer than most other flowers.
The flowers come in a box and do not include a vase which I personally prefer since we have a million vases already and I don’t need any more!
I ordered a bouquet of their “Farmer’s Choice” flowers the day before my father-in-law came in town to brighten up our house and we loved them. The roses came slightly closed and opened up beautifully the following day.
Such gorgeous colors!
In addition to displaying the flowers in our kitchen, I snipped off two of the vibrant yellow roses to put in a small vase to brighten up our downstairs bathroom as well.
My mom always does this with her flowers and I love the look of fresh flowers throughout the house!
I sent another bouquet, “The Best Around” bouquet, to my friend Michaela in Denver as thank you for hosting me and Chase last weekend and scheduled it to arrive the day of my visit.
The deluxe bouquet delivered enough flowers for two full vases and looked stunning! They were beautiful and Michaela seemed happy and surprised to receive the gorgeous flowers during my stay.

Riddy says
I’m in love with the “Be Mine” bouquet!

It’s so hard to pick just one bouquet! I seriously want them all:) I love the Twirl or Just Right. Aside from sending some to myself haha, I’d send some to my mom, grandparents, or friends!
Mo says
Love the ACE bouqe! What a cool company
Janet C says
I would love to send the cloud 9 bouquet to a good friend who has been going through a really tough few weeks. It would be such a nice surprise.
Bethany Imondi says
I love the brightness of the colors in the “Best Around” bouquet. If I received them, I would send them to my boyfriend, because flowers shouldn’t just be for the women on Valentine’s Day. Plus, he’s probably not had something so colorful or alive in his apartment in awhile.
Marie says
I would love to send the “love dove” bouquet to my mom. It is her 70th Birthday in 2 weeks and she deserves the best!
Sarah says
I love the Cloud 9 bouquet! I would love to send those to my mom as a “just because” gift because she does so much for me and my family and we probably don’t thank her enough!
Morgan Labelle says
My mom’s birthday is the day before Valentine’s day and I was planning on sending her flowers anyways, so I would love to send her the Love Dove bouquet from this site! All of these flowers are gorgeous.
Tera says
I would send some to my mama! Her bday is this month! I’m loving this site!
Jenny G says
I am obsessed with the Cloud 9 bouquet! We are having dreary weather here and it would brighten up my mom’s house so much!
Elissa says
The Forget Me Not bouquet is so pretty – I love the mix of colors! I would send the flowers to my best friend in NC.
Mandi Little says
How crazy I actually visited this website earlier and thought the flowers were beautiful but have never heard of them before so i kept searching other places! Im trying to send my boyfriends parents flowers for valentines day! I loved their red roses! They are so beautiful and i always think valentines day equals red roses so i would love to send her those!!
great giveaway! i hope i win! 🙂
nicole says
Of the valentines day flowers I really like the yours truly. I would love to send the ‘just right’ flowers to my friend and marathon training partner. She struggles with MS and yet still gets out of bed to meet me at 4 am every day to run! Her boss recently retired and she is nervous about the new one.
Meg says
I love “Be Mine” – cool how they incorporated succulents into the flowers!
Allison Keskimaki says
I would send “Abracadabra” to my mom. We don’t leave nearby and it’s hard to get home to see her. I miss her and I know a big bouquet of flowers would totally make her day!
Stacey T. says
I’d love to send my mom the “Wild About you” bouquet. They are so pretty and I think they would cheer her up. She just had surgery on her knee and is stuck at home recovering.
Britt says
I love the idea of sending bouquets (without a vase) and these flowers look beautiful! The Sangria arrangement really stands out as something different. I have a close friend who could denitely use a delivery of beautiful flowers!
Amber says
I LOVE FLOWERS! I’m a firm believer that you can’t every be (or stay) in a bad mood when there are flowers around. I am going to share this company with my friends! We just love flowers!
I LOVE “Thoughtful” bouquet, the “Super Cute” bouquet, and the “Darling” bouquet!
I would absolutely send them to my aunt. She deserves a little pick me up every now and then for all her hard work with my little cousins!
Abby says
My husband and I were just discussing randomly surprised his mother with a bouquet. She would love to receive Unforgettable!
Lisa says
My favorite is Love Dove, so pretty and reminds me of my wedding! I would send some to my best friend and his beautiful family over in Denver. They spread so much joy and kindness to others I love making them smile and they deserve it!
Thanks for another wonderful post 🙂 Love PBF!
Lisa
Jessie says
My favorite is the “Fairy Tale Ending”. It’s a bit whimsical and fun. I’d send it to my momma for Valentine’s day because it reminds me of the flowers in her garden come spring time.
Cindy Smith says
I would choose the Farmer’s Choice and since I never get flowers myself, I would send them to me! Oh happy day!
Kristine H. says
The “Just Peachy” and “Virtue” are so lovely. They would be the perfect arrangement to surprise my mom for her February birthday.
Lauren says
The “be mine” is perfect for my sister for valentines day. She loves succulents and her fiance leaves this week for his deployment so I’m sure these could brighten her day!
Lenna says
So many beautiful options! I’d love to send “Thoughtful” to my mom in Raleigh 🙂
Heather @Fit n Cookies says
I love cabana! I’d probably send to my mom.
Rachel says
The yours truly would be perfect for my mom, who is a social worker and spent the last 3 months caring for my dad after a particularly nasty bout of surgeries!
Morgan says
I would send my mom “The Farmer’s Choice” bouquet. We really didn’t have the best relationship growing up but now that I’m going to be a mom I want to be able to connect more with my own. I want my child to have such a strong relationship with me, that I know I need to mend the one I have with my mom. AND I know how much any lady loves a bouquet of flowers as a surprise so I’m sure she would enjoy this sweet gesture!
Morgan says
And who knows flowers better than the ones who grow them! They would do such a great job hand selecting the best ones available!
Jenna says
I love Good Karma. Lilies are my favorite! I would send to my mom.
Emily says
Farmers choice all the way! They look spring is already here, so beautiful. I would send these to my Stepmom, its been quite a crazy couple weeks and she is deserving of something to make her smile. Thanks for introducing us to this site!
Erin says
The “Be Mine” immediately caught my eye, mixing flowers and succulents looks gorgeous!
Bianca says
love the Unforgettable! i’d send it to my parents 🙂
Courtney says
I would choose either the “Cake N Cream” or “Icing” bouquet to send to my mom for her birthday this month since I won’t be there in person to celebrate!
tricia says
I think I’d go Everlasting Love or Wild About U – both are gorgeous! Thanks Julie!
Kathy Engel says
Be True, Cabana, Cloud 9, and Peace are my favorites, but they’re all great!!! I would send them to my best friend back home in NC (I now live in MI). Her birthday is 2/10 and she just found out this week that she’s finally pregnant (she’s been trying for five months) and I’m pregnant too and we’re only three days apart! Would love to send this as a congrats/happy birthday/I miss you/can’t wait for this journey together gift!
Rebecca says
I’d send my mom the Bohemian bouquet – it’s bright and whimsical and will make it feel like spring despite the cold weather!
Kaella On The Run says
My mom loves spreading flowers around her house too. I would love to send her the “Champagne” arrangements because she does so much for me and my son.
claire says
I’d love to send my sister the sweet valentine bouquet! She just had to make a really tough decision in her life. She LOVES sunflowers and I know this bouquet would brighten her day and let her know how proud I am of her!
karla says
I would send hot lava or be mine to my sister
Paige says
these are STUNNING! I absolutely love the “Dragonfly” one with all the different color calla lilies. I would send them to my Mom for Valentine’s Day because I haven’t seen her in awhile and she just recently lost a friend, I know they’re her favorite flowers, too. It’d be great surprise 🙂
Christie says
I absolutely love the Yours Truly bunch! I would send them to my sister. She’s one of the most wonderful people I know, and she so deserves them. She’s had quite a rough few months; she was planning her wedding and then found out her fiancé was running around on her all over the place and the most despicable liar. She needs some sunshine!
Sky says
This is such an awesome giveaway. Even though Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, I have been wanting to send my mom some flowers for other reasons. She is having some health problems right now and she is being so brave and strong. I would love to send her the “Good Karma” flowers just to let her know I am thinking of her and that I care about her.
Kristin L. says
I love the Pure Passion bouquet because it reminds me of my wedding bouquet! Is it terrible that I would send them to myself? I love flowers but never treat myself to them!
Rachel says
The Twirl bouquet is gorgeous! I’d love to send it to my mom 🙂
Kaitlyn says
I’d send some red roses to my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day. We’re in a long distance relationship, and he always would surprise me with a bouquet of flowers for a special occasion or just because when we were still living in the same city. This would be nice to do for him! 🙂
Katherine Kelly says
Wow, what beautiful arrangements! I would say Glow, You Rock or the Perfect Ending. WOW. I will definitely be checking them out more.
