Need good florist in or near Arlington, VA.

I'd like to send flowers to a party being held in Arlington, VA. Can anyone recommend a good florist there or in DC?

Thanks, my babies.

In DC, but I am sure will deliver to Arlington is Amaryllis Designs. I have received several absolutely beautiful flowers from them. In once case some of the flowers started to die alter a couple days and they replaced the original bouquet with an even more gorgeous one.

The Falls Church Florist may deliver, depending on where the flowers are being sent. They are my go-to for flowers.

Yes, there's another on my posting in the lounge.

I've looked at all the websites suggested so far and what it's shown me is how very important a company's website can be. All of the suggestions, except for Amaryllis, show standard 'can be ordered' arrangements. I know I can call each of these places and they'll do an arrangement to order but the Amaryllis website shows their beautiful arrangements made for specific events they've done. Their website is so appealing and leads me to believe that their work is more personal and artistic than the others, even though that may not be true.

When you're ordering flowers from a distance, as I am, the website can be a deal maker or a deal maker. Take a peek at the Amaryllis website and you'll see what I mean.

You know I meant a deal maker or a deal breaker, right?

Absolutely true about Amaryllis -- they send very unusual, yet strikingly beautiful arrangements. They tend to be much different than the average arrangement I usually c - as u said more artistic. I always get rave reviews on the flowers I send from there. As I said the few that have been sent to me have been stunning.
