A Village of Flowers

Don't ask for anything specifically because the shop will do whatever they want. Went into the store a week in advance and picked out specific flowers that I wanted for a mother's day bouquet. Got a call in the late afternoon the day before saying that they didn't have one of the flowers so they wanted to know if they could substitute. Beyond me how they don't have flowers after requesting for them a week in advance. But fine! Showed up today and the arrangement looked very little like the one I wanted. I requested two types of flowers and nether were used in the arrangement. Yes the arrangement was pretty and the flowers looked fresh, but not at all what I had requested or paid for. If you can't do what is asked then you say you can't and don't make up something and hope the customer is happy. That is just bad business. I will not be going there again!

Pros: unique flowers, fresh flowers

Cons: won't take requests asked

I am not from Nashville but wanted to pick up some flowers for a family event and selected "A Village of Flowers" from the CitySearch Reviews. On the phone I provided only a price range and a some general guidance "informal, colorful, should look like they were picked from a farm." The arrangement was amazing. The flowers were fresh and varied, the design was informal as I asked, not symmetric and yet had wonderful balance of size shape and color. My Nashville relatives say they are changing florists.

Pros: Great artistic design-exactly what I had hoped for!

Cons: Busy area

Words cannot express our profound gratitud towards A Village of Flowers. The floral design for our wedding simply surpassed all of our expectations. It was exquisite. The professionalism and dedication was present from the beginning, when I met with Melissa (the owner) for a wedding consult, to the day of my wedding. The atmosphere of the store is warm and beautiful -I just want to sit there and have a cup of tea!! The wedding bouquets and centerpieces were lovely. Every thing reflected hard work and dedication (they mean business!). The designers and staff were friendly, professional and extremely talented. Thank you all so much for making our day so unforgettable.

Pros: Exquisite design

Cons: none

Village of Flowers has turned into my second home! I don't think I have ever been to a flower shop with such incredible talent and taste in this city. Nothing but the best comes from these guys (girls!) and the service I am offered everytime is top notch. If you are still using the "superlative" florists, or your traditional mom and pop with babies breath--- look no further than Village of Flowers to change how you feel about those other guys. To a Village of Flowers: You ARE the best of this city, and much heartfelt appreciation for all of your hard work making Nashville beautiful one arrangement at a time!

I sent 1 dozen red roses to my girlfriend for her birthday, and she said it was the biggest arrangement she had ever had. She loved it. I highly recommend A Village of Flowers.

Pros: Great Location, Good Price, Friendly Staff

This is my choice for a florist in the Downtown / Vandy area. The staff is at its best when given creative freedom with flower choices and arrangements. I've found that several of the other local stores will try to dump their older flowers on you when given this "opportunuty." I've always been impressed with the quality and variety at the Village. Go for a paper-wrapped bouquet for better value.

Pros: Creative, Thoughtful, Flexible
