Through the Looking Glass

I stopped here to pick up some flowers for a family member’s birthday. To start there were barely any flowers to choose from which was extremely disappointing being that a lot of the reviews were pretty good. I was told each rose was $3.50 and two other flowers I chose would be $3.00 each. I picked 6 roses and two each of the other kind. Totaling $33.00 right? Well I was charged $53.00. I’m no math wiz but that just did not make sense. I could have went to Walmart and made my own arrangement for $20 and believe me I stopped there but they had nothing. When I confronted the lady at the counter she went to the lady (let’s call her Petty Betty) arranging the flowers and whispered to her. Petty Betty started stripping the Bouquet of any extra greenery she added to make it look decent. This place is over priced and over rated.

Highly recommend. Ordered flowers for a birthday and the arrangement was beautiful. The flowers were full, vibrant and healthy. Will definitely use them again. Good customer service as well.

Ordered and delivered same day! I appreciated the call from the florist to clarify my order. My daughter said the flowers are so beautiful and fragrant. Highly recommend!

I called Through the Looking Glass to send flowers to my mother for her birthday because they are local to her and her friend and neighbor recommended them. They definitely did NOT live up to the recommendation! I checked their website to pick an arrangement and selected "Fit for a Queen", which came in 3 sizes for $90, $100, and $110. I chose the $110 arrangement. I wanted her to have something lush and beautiful for her December birthday. The flowers were thin and pathetic, and not even to the $90 level! They lasted one day before turning black and dying. I gave this business a week's notice to prepare the arrangement. They were not in a rush, and they could have ordered fresh flowers. It is clear that they used old, overly chilled, flowers (and very few of them) to make her bouquet. My mother looked up the arrangement on Through the Looking Glass's website before she called me about the dying flowers. She was upset when she saw the starting price for them, and how the basic arrangement SHOULD have looked, never mind her reaction when she learned what I actually paid for. This business is running a racket! They are crooks, and my mother is making sure that all of her friends in Swansboro know about it.
