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.

I love the Marvelous get well bouquet, and would send to my aunt who was just in an awful car accident. It would really brighten her hospital room.
Ok, this is serendipity, I’ve been obsessing and trying to pick a Bouqs bouquet to send to my mother! I’m thinking the “Just Make it Awesome Roses” because it looks like such a wonderful explosion of color 🙂
I love the Farmers Choice. So pretty. I agree with you fresh flowers always make me happy and I love having them around the house.
I would send Wild About You or Kindred Spirit to my dad to boost his spirits and remind him how loved he is in a few weeks at Mayo Clinic, where he starts his radiation and chemotherapy treatment for a rare form of cancer this coming Monday.
I love the banana aND the virtue. They are all so beautiful. I would send to my mom as her birthday is Feb 20th. She loves flowers and deserves something beautiful!!!!
Cake n Cream is beautiful! I’d send it to one of my coworkers as she is going through a rough time right now and I want to brighten up her day a bit. 🙂
Wow, So many beautiful arrangements! I kept thinking, oh that one, no that one… etc…
Cloud 9 is gorgeous!

I love so many of the bouquets! Campfire is one of my faves. I would send it to my cousin who takes good care of my grandma & sends me updates since I am 2K miles away.
I really like Cloud 9 and Cabana! I would send a bouquet to my grandma. Her birthday is coming up soon.
The champagne bouquet is beautiful! I’d like to send one to my sister.
I’ve ordered their flowers multiple times, and they are always gorgeous and last for-ev-er! I sent sunflowers to my sister a week before Christmas and they looked good until New Years. The local flowers for same day delivery are also great in a pinch. I love The Bouqs!
I love the Champagne bouquet. I’d send them to my Mom.
I’d choose the Unforgettable bouquet for my girlfriend.
I love the twirl bouquet!! I think I’d send them to my mom!
I love the Caliente – like a field of wildflowers! I’d send them to my best friend – there are only two of us single girls left in our group!
I would send the knockout bouquet to my mama for v-day! Its her first one as a single lady and she definitely deserves a little extra lovin’ this year!
Id love to send my mom the best around! She always has fresh flowers in her house 🙂
The be mine with the succulent looking ones is gorgeous!
Tough choice! I’d go with Wild About You or Glow. I’d send the bouquet to my mother because she is always there to help out. Whether it’s watching the baby while he’s sick or helping out in some other way, I can always count on her. She deserves a beautiful bouquet and so much more!
I’d love to send the virtue to my mom 🙂
The cabana bouquet. I LOVE gerber daisies 🙂
I would get the “Sooo In” for my mom because she is going through a rough time at the moment. Tulips are her most loved flower and they remind her of spring which is her favorite season.

I would send the Farmer’s Choice to my sister as a fun surprise to celebrate her wedding being six months away!!
I would send the “BE MINE” to my best friend who is away in Nashville for school. I miss her so much!
I’m torn between the Infinity bouquet and the Fairy Tale Ending bouquet. I recently moved from Maine to North Carolina, and my mom is struggling a bit with the move, so I would likely choose the Infinity bouquet to cheer her up and show much love.
What gorgeous flowers!! Thanks for sharing this site. I love the Forget Me Not & Knockout bouquets (along with many others).
I looooove these! I was literally JUST thinking of sending one of my old mentors a bouquet. I think she’d love the Role Model (but of course) or the Glow!
I would send myself the Peace flowers. All the flowers on the website are gorgeous!!!
I would get the Virtue bouquet and send them to my mom for her birthday!
I would pick the Role Model or Pucker Up to send to my mom. My mom and I live on opposite sides of the country and I miss her. My mom is an incredible woman and the flowers would be a thank you for all that she does for not only me, but the rest of our family, her friends, and co-workers!
I love the Fairy Tale ending, Infinity, and Thoughtful. So many to choose to from, so hard to pick just a few!
Farmer’s Fresh, my sister-in-law because sisters can always use some fresh flowers, am I right?
I’d love to send the Wild about You flowers to my best friend!
I’m feeling the knock out! I’d send a bouquet to my mom. (Who, by the way, does the same clever sorts of things with single flowers!)
I would send my mom the xoxo bouq. But they are all gorgeous!
I LOVE fresh flowers, and I love the idea of putting a few blooms all around the house.
I absolutely loved Cloud 9. So beautiful.
I love all of them- especially the fairy tale!
I love the Cloud 9 display! I would love to surprise my mother-in-law as this is the first Valentine’s Day without my father-in-law. It would be a nice surprise!

I really like the Peace bouquet because its so different! I’d totally send these to myself for a fun pick me up.
Cloud 9! Stunning! Such a great giveaway!

I love the greenery in the Yours Truly Bouquet. And I love that they don’t send a vase!
Beautiful flowers, I love roses, so “twirl” would be my choice and I would send them to my Mom. It’s been a long time since I’ve sent her flowers:)
I would send the Marshmallow bouquet to my aunt and uncle who housed me this summer while I worked at an unpaid internship. I couldn’t have done it without them, and I am so in their debt for their generosity!
I would love the Marshmallow Bouquet for my boyfriend’s mom! She deserves it!
My pick would be the lovers lilies and as much as I’d like to keep them for myself, I would send them to my friend, Nicole. She is a hardworking stay-at-home and work-from-home mom/wife. She’s amazing and I’d love to gift her with something to brighten her day and show her how much I admire her as a woman.
