What time will my flowers be delivered?
Delivery windows
- Monday–Friday 10am–5pm
Mornings vs. afternoons
- Orders placed the day before will most likely be delivered in the afternoon, from 1pm–5pm. (For example, an order placed at 7pm Tuesday will be delivered Wednesday afternoon.)
- If you would like a morning delivery, please place your order at least 2 days in advance. (For example, for a Wednesday morning delivery, place your order by 8pm Monday)
- Monday deliveries will almost always be made in the afternoon, as we need the morning to restock with fresh flowers after the weekend!
Specific time requests
You can always leave a note during checkout requesting a specific delivery time if desired, and we'll do our best!
No matter what, someone from Ritual Floral will reach out the day before delivery to confirm a convenient delivery time. (The only exception is busy flower holidays when we may not have time!)
What is your delivery fee?
We charge $15 for Full Service Delivery which includes:
- Confirmation of a convenient delivery time the day before (except on busy flower holidays).
- Delivery by Ritual Floral staff—never a third-party delivery service.
- One complimentary redelivery attempt if the recipient isn't home and we don't feel it's safe to leave the flowers.
- A photo of the flowers sent to you after delivery.
✨ Delivery to addresses with a 53207 area code is free with code HEYNEIGHBOR53207 ✨
Please note, if you use this code and your flowers are not going to 53207, you will still be able to check out, but we will have to contact you about collecting a delivery fee ;)
What if nobody is home to receive the flowers?
We always try to work with you to arrange a convenient delivery time. Please look out for emails/texts from us to confirm the best delivery time so that we can place flowers into someone's hands!
If nobody is home to receive the flowers, we will use our judgement on what to do with them. If we think the flowers can survive outside for a couple of hours, we will leave them in a safe place and let you know.
However if we think leaving the flowers would result in pretty much instance death (freezing temperatures, etc.) we won't leave them.
In that case, we will take the flowers back to our studio, and be in touch with you to figure out next steps. Our delivery fee includes one free redelivery attempt, or pickup is always an option.
I don't know when my recipient will be home for a flower delivery. What should I do?
Consider sending dried flowers! We offer a variety of dried bouquets which won't wilt, freeze, or die in extreme weather.
If it's raining, we'll wrap them in plastic before leaving them outside ;)
Dried flowers are a great option if you're worried about catching the recipient at a convenient delivery time!
