Mayflowers

If you want spectacular quality flowers and designers just waiting to assist you in selecting the perfect arrangement to fit your budget, go to Mayflowers in Reston. They make sure you are thrilled when you see your arrangement and give expert advice, even volunteering to keep the arrangement fresh in their temperature controlled cases for last minute pickups. Bring your table cloth sample color, your sofa pillows andthey will amaze you with gorgeous color combinations that are perfect! Weddings are 2^nd nature to them and so many of their arrangements are on Pintrest. They have done 3 weddings and a rehearsal dinner for our family and people rave to this day about the flowers. Bring a sample picture of your wedding cake and wedding colors, and they will design awesome suggestions for you to chose from! I can’t give them a higher recommendation, and call on them for every celebration and family party!

Expensive and poor quality. In less than 12 hrs (over night), the flowers I was given as a gift, are mostly dead. Photos to prove it too!

I love working with Sara at Mayflowers via phone and email. They are very responsive and make sure to create the perfect arrangement, even if it’s not identical to the image you provide. The flower arrangements they create are absolutely stunning and cannot be compared to any online arrangements. Not only do they last for a long time but they make the room have such a amazing aroma. I would highly recommend them for any occasion.

Not only is it expensive, the quality of the flowers are terrible. I gave this place a try three times bc it was conveniently located next to my office.
First time: ordered hydrangeas, garden roses, and peonies. It all died the next day. They were flowers for my mother and I paid a premium for those stems.
Second time: gave them the benefit of the doubt and tried again. Same thing happened but the flowers died after three days instead of immediately afterwards.
Third time: ordered lilies and had decent service this time but it was my last resort bc I was running late to the hospital. The lady who helped me did a poor job but one of their volunteers took over and completely redid her work so that it was presentable.
Given that I paid a premium for their flowers I would have expected much higher quality. I even warned the BF not to purchase from here. It’s disappointing for a floral shop that looks so appealing and presentable.

Absolutely rude on the phone. I called to inquire if they had a particular flower variety available, and I received a snotty response because I didn’t immediately provide the scientific name of the flower. Apparently «African Lily» isn’t a common name for Agapanthus, according to them. Google says otherwise.
They literally waited as I Googled the scientific name while on the phone. They couldn’t comment on the availability until I provided more information.
Clearly customer service isn’t a priority for them.

I was lucky enough to rent out Mayflowers for my husbands birthday. Obviously this was a surprise for him! As the General Manager of Morton’s, Maura, walked us across the street and the door opened, my husband was very confused. All he could see were beautiful flowers everywhere, candles, and a few people that wished him a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! They made sure everything was to our liking.
Victoria, our private server, was there for our every need.
Originally, when I had asked May if she could do 100 roses in a vase for me, she thought for a moment and looked through her store for a vase and then said Not a problem. As I started to describe what I wanted to do that night, she said, not a problem. She sounded as excited as myself.
The night was perfect, there is not a fine detail that anyone missed. It was the most Beautiful Romantic evening. They even delivered the 100 ROSES and HYDRANGEAS, which weighed about 50lbs.
I truly want to thank Maura, May, Victoria, and May’s Assistants.
Thank Everyone So Much.

I loved the flowers from this place. They put a beautiful bouquet for my husband to give me. He told them a flower I like and they built around it. Gorgeous! I only wish they lasted a little longer than a week.

I wish I read the reviews here before buying flowers from this place.
Purchased flowers and picked them up yesterday (5−9−15) as of this AM (5−10−15) they are dead!!!
Don’t go here. You’re basically throwing money down the drain. The customer service is ridiculous too.
Stick with wegmans or whole foods for flowers.

Horrible customer service! Their garden roses may be high quality but the attitude of the florist is terrible. I accompanied my friend yesterday who is inquiring about made to order graduation leis and when she is asked if they make the leis, this Asian florist coldly told her «yes we do and it is expensive».
I was horrified with the attitude and the statement from this florist who is implying ’ you can’t afford our flowers’.
For a flower shop that is projecting an ‘upscale’ image, that certain florist is projecting the image of ’ low class’ behavior
and does not belong to the industry of serving customers.

The owner May and her staff are very knowledgeable people. May knows what she has and it is quality. She does remember clients based in preferences and will work with your budget. I have gone in four times in the past and felt they really helped me. My mother-​in-​law is Japanese and May knew just the kind of arrangement she would like and stayed within the budget. Happy and satisfied. I only wish there was a delivery service for holidays only, as I recently moved from Ashburn, VA to Orlando, FL. My moms are back in Virginia and would love to send them Mayflowers for mom’s day.

We went to Mayflowers for flowers for our wedding. As the other reviewers have said, their flowers are on the higher end, price-​wise. However, their arrangements are absolutely stunning, and they have some flowers that I’ve never seen anywhere before. We made an appointment (necessary for discussing wedding flowers), and they were lovely. They really listened to what we wanted and made suggestions that were spot on. The flowers were already at the venue when we arrived and were absolutely stunning. I could not have imagined anything more lovely.

The quality of the peonies here are not that great unfortunately. They gave me an unhealthy bulb. Even when I asked them why it did not look right, they kept reassuring me it was perfectly fine. The peony never survived and wilted before it bloomed.
Other than that, their garden roses are nice.

Poor customer service. I wouldn’t bother given their frosty greeting.
I’ve always admired the flower arrangements at this store. I stopped in to see what kind of arrangements they could do for my wedding. The girl was too obsessed with fixing her fridge to acknowledge my presence. I did stop her to ask for a catalog but was swiftly ignored. I walked straight out. I’ll take my money elsewhere. They don’t need the business apparently.

So I love the location of this shop-​and my husband and I always seem to peer in after it closes, as we’re usually on the way to Morton’s or Jackson’s. My husband was away on business the week of our anniversary and sent me an arrangement from here-​it was… small. 4 – 5 roses and some greenery, in a small (5″ tall) vase. I thought maybe he was being frugal, so I simply said «thanks babe» and left it at that. When he arrived home and saw it on the counter he was embarrassed and annoyed, and proceeded to share with me the cost-​$ 100. Yes…$ 100. I thought that was beyond outrageous-​this looked like a $ 30 – 40 arrangement at best. In fact, I’m willing to bet you can find something similar at the Safeway flower shop. So he decided to pay them a visit and request a refund or replacement (and I assure you, it must’ve been pretty bad for him to do that, he never returns ANYTHING). Unfortunately, the woman he talked to said «well they are high quality roses» and didn’t offer him a refund or a replacement and shrugged her shoulders! I’ve never heard of such a thing. He then apparently demanded they come to our home, pick up the arrangement and replace it, which they did do. Replacing it with a slightly bigger sunflower arrangement. Now-​we are a particularly affable couple who don’t complain about much. But the attitude and customer service here is simply nonexistent. We will not be using this «florist» again, because they are simply far too expensive for what you receive, coupled with nonexistent customer service. My husband definitely spent additional blood pressure on them too-​poor guy.

The owners apparently don’t care about online reviews. No response from my review. I’d steer clear of this place if I was you!

Is this a real florist? I’ve been here on two separate occasions (one of which was the week before Valentine’s Day). In both cases I was looking for red roses. In neither case did this «florist» have red roses. I kind of think these folks are a little lacking in the fundamentals of their industry. I’d recommend finding another option if you’re in need of flowers.

Honestly this place is lovely. The arrangements are beautiful and the owner is great. My dad only buys his flowers here for my mom and they always look stunning.

I have worked in Reston on and off for years. Now, I am lucky enough to work right across the street from my favorite florist. They are not inexpensive by any means but, the arrangements are both elegant and high quality.
May and her team have never disappointed me. From large to small arrangements, they always cater to the style I request and my budget. As a customer, I am probably as picky as it comes but I have nothing except compliments for their services.

I have been shopping at Mayflowers for over 10 years. I used to work at a company called Noblestar back in 2000 and every week the reception desk would have the most beautiful arrangements that I have ever seen. I asked the owner where they came from and he told me a florist called Mayflowers. they used to be by Champs in the Plaza America but have recently moved to the Reston Town Center. When I first visited their floral shop it was nothing like any other flower shop I had ever been too. The Flowers were simply beautiful and the arrangements were pieces of art. I had never seen anything like it before.
I am an executive for a high tech firm in the Northern Virginia area and I always recommend Mayflowers to all my clients and friends. I tell them if you want to impress your wife or girlfriend send them a bouquet of flowers from Mayflowers. Not one has ever been disappointed and they now only use May. The owner May is the nicest and sweetest woman. Her floral arrangements are just awesome. Just stop by the store and see so for yourself. Mayflowers at the Reston Town Center is the best flower shop in the DC area hands down. Their flowers are just simply beautiful

Honestly, this place does some amazing work but there are several pitfalls.
First, back in 2010, my Mom and I hired this shop to do our arrangements for my wedding reception at Trump National Golf Club. Most of the arrangements were quite pretty and I loved them, but they did not bring a bouquet or hair flower as requested and the owners attitude was, «oh we forgot and can’t do anything about it now»… it is an extremely rude way of responding when they screwed up… and honestly should have figured something out. The arrangements done were beautiful, but when you hire a company, you should get what you order.
Next, my Dad went to get an orchid plant for my Mom yesterday and the arrangement was not pretty. Normally, most of their arrangements are very pretty but this one seemed to be a dud… and was still quite expensive. The flowers were shorter than the vase, there were 4 stems, which looked quite odd (I note that most arrangements are odd numbers), their was no different heights for esthetic look… sticks were just thrown in and didn’t seem artistic at all. Not impressed with the arrangement… think it was just one they wanted to get rid of and saw someone who wasn’t detail oriented about the floral arrangement.
The place is expensive and even though they do some great work, I feel like they have a lot of flaws too and don’t seem to care that much about customer service.
