REVISED: The florists took corrective action and sent out 3 yellow Gerbera's for my cousin today. They also informed me that they will revise their website to correct their advertising. I have changed my stars from 3 to 4. Thank you for the effort. Cheryl ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I ordered an arrangement for my cousin's 50th birthday yesterday. I live in Calgary, so I wanted to surprise her with flowers. It consisted of 3 yellow Gerbera's, which was arranged in a pineapple water bottle, as a flower holder. The reason I chose this specific arrangement was for the color. Her favorite color is yellow. So it was an easy choice! My cousin sent me picture of the arrangement when she got home from work. I was very disappointed to see that the flowers were pink. Still nice, but not what I ordered. So I sent an email to the florists, as the business was closed already, about the color mishap and that I was dissapointed with my order. I also attached a photo of their online advertisement, which states the arrangement contains yellow Gerbera's (pls see attached photos for reference). The response I received was: "Thank you for the email. We where all out of yellow gerbera so we substituted the colour. I am so sorry to upset." There was no signature signed to the email, to make it business professional. So this was my response back: "For the future, it would be best to inform your customers of changes to their order. There are reasons why customers select specific flowers, colors, etc. Perhaps, in your online advertising, make a note that color substitutions may occur, if color is depleted. Then we can make different selections". I did receive another email, with an attached signature: "You are a 100 percent correct. Thank you and I fix this up. Will talk to our web developer about this." Costa ---------------------- It would've been nice if they offered to send my cousin yellow Gerbera's (no vase, just flowers) as a replacement. But I guess that would be wishful thinking on my part. NOTE: If you are purchasing an arrangement for someone, that has a meaning behind it, it might be best to contact the shop via phone and speak to someone. Unfortunately, I did not have time to do this, as I was at work when I made my purchase. I trusted the website for accuracy in my selection, which failed.

I had just “received” flowers bought by my significant other who is away this Christmas in England with his family. I had received a brief call notifying me there would be a delivery in approximately 30 minutes, to my delighted surprise. 18 minutes *after the fact* I received another call from an evidently agitated woman saying she had knocked on “5 other doors” because I had missed her at my door. I had felt awful and it was a very rushed phone call being told my bouquet was left a couple houses down. No longer quite as elated about my flowers, I was quite disappointed with this experience that my significant other put time, money and hope into. My main point being; I personally feel that being in an industry such as this, that more patience should be due. I know that it is a business and that everything should always be done efficiently, but with a service like this, you never know whether it is for a celebration, a thank you, or a death of a loved one. I am very excited for the flowers to bloom, as I am sure it will look even more lovely. But as an overall experience I am unfortunately rather saddened.

  • Andrea Murphy

I recently had my wedding and we got our flowers from Broadway Florists. We were extremely happy with the consultation and with the follow up we got. My only complaint is from our actual wedding day. When I got to the venue and got to see my flowers for the first time, they were extremely dark purple. We had ordered blue flowers (husband couldn't tell the color when he picked then up as he is color blind so he didn't say anything). We were advised they might have a slight purple tint if we didn't want them dyed (which we didn't) which would have been ok. These did not have a slight tint. They were DARK. When I called the store, all I basically got was a "well this is what you ordered. Clearly the colors on the computer when you did your order aren't true. Too bad." So while it was a small hiccup in what was a amazing day, all my pictures have everything in my colors of navy blue and sliver with the glaringly odd addition of dark purple flowers.

Dear Costa I just wanted to personally tell you what a beautiful job you did with my daughters flowers for the wedding. Everything was exceptional!!! The bride and bridesmaid arrangements were exactly what we wanted and they were so beautiful!!!! The pillars we rented and the large arrangements of flowers you put together for us were perfect for the ceremony in the hall at Rembrandts and were used to decorate in key places in the hall for dinner. The groom, groomsmen and parents flowers fit in perfect with Kira’s vision of how she wanted us all to look and we loved it. I have been highly recommending you and your store to everyone I talk to and have come in on a few occasions since to buy flowers from you. Your store is the number 1 place to call now when we need flowers because of your ability to bring to life my daughters vision, your creativeness, quality, price and great customer service you do there. I just can’t say enough.....

This place has great service, easy online ordering and prompt delivery. The reason for my 3 stars is that the sunflower bouquet I ordered was quite a disappointment. There were 4 flowers in the bouquet and 2 of them were closed and quite sad looking upon arrival. Its been 4 days since the delivery and despite following all the care instructions I can find online daily, my sunflowers are all sad, dying and drooped. The bouquet was on discount so I guess I would recommend anyone who comes across this to be wary of the discounted flowers as they dont seem to be very nice quality. Edit: The owners response is a bold face lie as they called me shortly after I left this review. If my name is not in your records, how did you have my phone number? Leaving this review up as it is 100% the truth and I am unimpressed with the owners attempt to discredit it.

Broadway Florist created our wedding florals and they were truly the most beautiful florals we could have ever imagined! They created decor for the tent that was exactly as we had asked for and more- I cannot imagine how long it took to create all the greenery strung across the tent poles and all the florals hanging off of each piece but it was truly outstanding. Broadway florists did the most amazing job and it was even honestly the most wonderful aspect of the whole wedding. We had SO many people asking about the florals especially the hanging aspects from the tent. The customer service was also amazing- Costa and his team were so easy to work with and made all our creative dreams a reality x 100. They went above and beyond and we were blown away.

  • Alana Maister

We used Broadway Florist for my Mom’s funeral and everyone was very impressed with the floral arrangements. The arrangements were created to include the specific flowers I wanted for my Mom and they were beautifully done up! Some of the arrangements I chose from ones already created and displayed in the showcase. I’m just sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet the talented person who created all that beautiful work and made so many people very happy. Costa went above and beyond as he accommodated last hour additions to the original order and brought the flowers to us himself. I can’t say enough good things about this experience and am happy to recommend them to anyone who wants their flowers to be beautiful and special!

  • Barb Rutherford

As a mature bride I hadn't thought of anything wedding related in a very long time. From the moment I entered Broadway Florists' and started talking about our wedding it was obvious that this was where we were going to buy our flowers. As with most events our plans changed during the planning process and those changes were met with patience and the professionalism that gave us the confidence that we were going to have the flowers that were perfect for our wedding. We weren't disappointed, the flowers arrived exactly when we expected them, they had been carefully wrapped and looked beautiful. We had many compliments from our guests. Thank you Costa and the team at Broadway Florists Barb Rutherford

I was out of town and I realized in a panic that I had forgotten to order flowers for my dear friend's birthday. It was Friday afternoon at 4:30 pm and I needed them delivered that evening. I called 3 florists (2 on Corydon and 1 on Academy), all very close to where I needed the flowers delivered. They all said they could not help me. When I called Broadway - the staff did not hesitate to accommodate, even though it was clear they had finished their deliveries for the day. The staff understood my predicament and they made me a lovely bouquet for my friend. The owner delivered the bouquet himself. I am a very satisfied customer indeed. Thanks Broadway!! Stephanie

Everybody makes mistakes, but totally forgetting about our 20th anniversary is unacceptable. I went into the store a week before and spoke to someone who assured me it would be no problem. Then I received a response just before lunch the day of our anniversary telling me that she forgot to pass this order on because she was going out on the long weekend. They did offer a replacement bouquet, but it wasn't what I ordered and wasn't desirable. I found a very nice shop that was able to deliver what I wanted with less than 90 minutes before the dinner. I am not willing to give these people more than a 1 star rating and I will not be giving them any of my money.

  • T A

My husband and I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Broadway Florists (specifically we dealt with Costa). From the moment we walked in the door to the delivery of the flowers our experience was amazing. We were working on a budget and they are extremely well priced, but the flower quality was amazing. Our flowers were delivered to the venue and they arrived in perfect condition. All the flowers were even better than I had imagined they would be.

  • Sara Cosentino

Broadway Florists did an outstanding job on the flowers for our wedding. My bridal bouquet lasted for over 2 weeks. The centre pieces even longer. Not only did they do an awesome job of the arrangements, but they also accommodated events over 2 days - complete with a fabulous archway. From the time we first started discussing options, to the events themselves, to weeks after - our experiences have been amazing. Great value and so pleased. Thank you!! Sara and Rob Penner

  • Kate B

Purchased a bromeliad for a friend's birthday... all the way from the states! The site's chat feature answered my questions quickly and kindly, and I even got a call to make sure the recipient's name was correct, and was ensured that my order placed yesterday would be delivered this morning, 3/11. My friend started her birthday in love with her new plant, and we are both happier today for it. Will definitely remember this florist for future gifts! Thank you ♡❀♡

  • Annette Chabidon

When I decide to send my Mom flowers I always use Broadway Florists in Winnipeg. She was very happy with her new potted mini rose bush for Mother’s Day and is now trying to decide where to plant it outside! Mom says the flowers that I get delivered to her by Broadway Florists are alway top quality. Since I don’t live in Winnipeg anymore, ordering them online and knowing she will get a beautiful floral gift as intended, is excellent. I highly recommend them.

  • lorna stevens

My husband order an impressive bouquet delivered for our Staycation at Inn at the Forks & a wonderful Valentine's Day treat. We are still enjoying many of the flowers as they were all fresh and beautifully arranged! Since this posting, MORE retirement flowers you have arranged arrived from past clients, wishing me well on my RECENT retirement (42 Years real estate) Again, they are absolutely lovely and MUCH appreciated! THANK YOU!

  • Dianna Goveas

I live in Toronto and I wanted to send my sister flowers for International Nurses Day. I wasnt sure what to select and at the stores advice I agreed to let them put an arrangement together for me of their freshest flowers. The result was amazing. An arrangement with lilies, roses, and even an orchid. My sister LOVED the colors and the flowers. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs to send flowers in Winnipeg.

  • Ben Schnitzer

Broadway florist in Winnipeg prepared the flowers for our wedding. They did an exceptional job! Not only did the flowers look amazing in the venue, but the service was perfect - top notch! They are so friendly and incredibly knowledgable at Broadway and will take great care to ensure your event goes off without a hitch. We would recommend Broadway Florist to anyone looking for a wedding florist. Go with them!!!

  • Monique Levesque-Pharoah

Costa and the team at Broadway Florists Ltd are second to none. I've been fortunate to see their work on a larger scale and then I recently received a bouquet of flowers that were simply stunning. They are also great supporters of the Health Sciences Centre Foundation, so if you want to support a local business that cares about the healthcare of Manitobans! Try them out, you will not be disappointed!

  • Jerry Booth

I have used Broadway Florist for the last 10 years for all my wife's flowers for Birthdays, Anniversaries & Special Occasions. The service has always been first class, fresh flowers, delivered to my home when ordered. Costa & Ernie make you feel like family when you shop with them, I cannot say enough good things about Broadway apart from they are the only Winnipeg Florists I would highly recommend.

  • Rob McGhie

A big shout out to Ernie, Costa and the staff at Broadway Florist. I called the day before and just said make it "colourful and summery". You blew me away and better yet WOWED my wife. She claims that it is by far, the prettiest bouquet of flowers I have ever given her. That's saying a lot after 47 years. You will continue to have my business with knockout arrangements like this. Thanks guys.

  • Mike & Kim Giesbrecht

I live in BC and order for my parents in Winnipeg. Flowers of all kinds make people feel special. Ordering from afar is expensive and challenging because you want something beautiful and unique. Broadway goes out of their way to create something unique for your loved ones. The flower delivery service is prompt and ultra accommodating for those last minute orders. Thank you for this service.

  • Julia Riddell

I ordered a bouquet of pink roses for my friend's birthday and I picked them up from Broadway Florists in Winnipeg. They were so beautiful and the staff were very friendly. My mom ordered a basket for me and had it delivered right to my door. This place is WAY more affordable than other flower shops that deliver and is just as good if not better! Love this place!

  • Hilary Bews

I cannot thank Broadway Florists enough the flower arrangements they did for my wedding. They absolutely exceeded my expectations!!! We all could not get over how beautiful the arrangements were. I cannot thank them enough!! We will be using Broadway Florists anytime we need flowers in the future and will be recommending to anyone and everyone who will listen!!

  • Tarin

Needed an arrangement for a funeral. Called Broadway Florists literally 2 1/2 hours before the services were scheduled to begin. They were not only able to accommodate me, by getting a beautiful arrangement to the funeral home before the services started. Amazing quality for the price. I am truly grateful. Thank you, Broadway Florists & Flower Delivery.

  • Leah Dilworth

Lorelei at Broadway Florists created the flower arrangements for my husband's funeral. The arrangements were stunning and perfect for the occasion and the venue. The flowers lasted for a very long time, which really pointed out the quality of flowers that Broadway uses. I highly recommend them and will use them for all future needs.

  • Regan Greenwood

Costa went above and beyond for our wedding last weekend. The room looked Magical, and the bouquets, and everything were just perfect! The candles and the head tables were exactly how we imagined, and it was just amazing. I didn't have to worry about a thing and it made the planning process so easy!

  • Eric Barker

I’ve never been but I was in a Tim Hortons drive thru when someone driving one of their vans paid for my order! It was $21 order as well! I can say that I can tell the people that work here are great and I will definitely be going here next time I buy flowers! Thank you for paying it forward!!

  • David G

I bought flowers for my Mom the other day. I gave them a budget, including delivery, and the arrangement was amazing! I went to visit her a week later and the flowers were still in full bloom. It definitely was mission accomplished in picking up her spirits battling a flu. Thanks so much.

  • Ian L

When we got married, my wife had Anna roses as her bouquet, which are no longer available. As we just recently celebrated our 20th this pas week, Ernie and crew were able to source out 20 Nena roses (similar to the Anna rose) with ease. My wife smiles at them every day! Thanks Ernie!!

  • Nic T

I have been using Broadway for a number of years. The arrangements are always fresh and beautiful. The online tools for choosing flowers and setting up flower delivery is quick and easy. Delivery fees are reasonable for Winnipeg and surrounding areas. Highly recommend.

  • Kevin Gordon

Yet another beautiful dozen roses for my mother for Valentines Day. I have been buying from Broadway Florists for years and every time never disappointed. Their overall service and care are top notch with overall high quality standards. Thank you so much! Cindy Gordon

Broadway Florist delivered the most beautiful bouquet to my mother in law. To quote her...”this is the most gorgeous arrangement I have ever seen”. Very impressive to hear that from an 84 year old lady. Absolutely beaming with joy. Thank you!!

  • Jeremy Rempel Smith

Very friendly and helpful staff. They went above and beyond to help us out -- patient with our many questions, and friendly toward our little dog. The flowers were perfect too. We will definitely be back here next time we need flowers.

We asked Broadway Florist to prepare some arrangements for a 50th anniversary and they did an amazing job. Their arrangements were exquisite and were still in mint condition a week later. I would not hesitate to recommend them!

  • Cheryl Kimpinski

For Winnipeg flower delivery, I wouldn’t use anyone but Broadway Florists. I recently sent an arrangement to a cousin recovering from a car accident. She was thrilled with the lovely flowers and said they lasted 2 weeks!

  • Willow Rector

The beautiful flower delivery to my friend in Winnipeg cheered her immensely. She sent me a photo of the arrangement and, as always, it was gorgeous. I can always rely on you to send just the perfect gift. Thank you!

Last week, I ordered the succulents for delivery to my sister's place of work. They were beautiful! She was so happy with them, as well as I. They were healthy, and presented in a nice container. It was perfect.

A great centrepiece for a large dinner party helped pull it all together. Thanks Costa for providing a spectacular arrangement of spring colours that is still fresh days later. Thanks again Broadway!

  • Cory Derksen

The only thing that didn’t work out was the delivery date. I specified a date and it was delivered 1 day before. It kind of ruined the birthday surprise. Otherwise everything else was perfect!

  • Jane MacDonald

The online process is very easy to use. The flowers that were delivered looked exactly like the ones I choose from the picture. Delivery arrived on schedule. Overall, I was very satisfied.
