I recently went to Columbia Florist having gone many times as a kid growing up to get flowers for my mom. My dad still goes often. The staff, as I remembered from growing up, was so friendly. I think I was interacting with the owner. She was so nice. I shared my budget and she went on to procure the most beautiful bouquet you can imagine. It made my moms day when I came home to surprise her with it. I felt that the kind lady at Columbia Florist went above and beyond to make this a special moment for my mom. I really do appreciate it. Thank you and see you again soon!

Columbia Florist is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!. Kathy and Connie are the best. When my flowers were delivered to my event I almost broke down and cried because I had no idea they would be so beautiful. It is now 4 weeks after the event and I am still speechless, I am still in awe on how beautiful my arrangements were. I will continue to use Columbia Florist as long as I live. My event was something out of a story book with all of those beautiful white roses and centerpieces. Kathy and Connie you 2 have changed my life and my guests lives forever. You are AMAZING!!!!!!!

I just can't say enough about this our go-to florist!!! I have been using them since 1988 and they have always come through. Everyone in their store is knowledgeable, professional, and personable. They take the moment to listen, ask questions, answer your questions, and make you feel comfortable. And everyone has the same reaction to them. I am pleased to know this business is here and we found you. It is also a testament to you and your work when I see the city agencies ordering your creations. Good, no, Great job. You have done your name proud.

I cannot believe it took me so long to write this review. Connie and Cathy, the two leading ladies at Columbia Florist, are absolutely wonderful. We have used them for college graduations, religious events, going-away parties, our wedding, funerals, and more. The arrangements are absolutely gorgeous, the pricing is unbeatable, and the service is outstanding. They always deliver on time and have even accommodated long distances for us. I now live over an hour from them and still make my way across the bridge when we need a florist.

Time after time they hit the mark I tell them my vision and they bring it to life. This is not just any flower shop, one of the best flower shops. They are very professional and knowledgeable about flowers. Their customer service is one of the best I’ve ever received in any store, I’ve been coming here for the last 2 to 3 years and they are friendly, caring and pretty much now family their delivery girl also very nice friendly and went above and beyond to ensure that my flowers got there on time.

I'm so glad I went with Columbia Florist for my wedding. They really captured our vision for the wedding and provided us with lovely bridal / bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres, altar flowers for the church, sweetheart table centerpiece, and the best of all - potted flower plant centerpieces for our guest tables. Columbia Florist delivered everything on time and they were very flexible and easy to work with. Would definitely use them again for my next event.

I plan to update this post once I receive wedding photos back - but I couldn't wait to share how amazing Columbia Florist Inc. is! Connie was so great to work with and she understood my vision. She helped me plan the florals for my ceremony and reception space. My guests were raving about the flowers the next day. I just want to thank Connie and the team so much for being kind and professional when it came to logistics and delivery to a Long Island venue.

My favorite flower shop for years.. If any occasion,birthday,graduation no matter how far I go,always bring the flowers from here. Sometimes I just pick up what they have already in store, florists have great taste hard to choose, or I explain what I would like and they make my dreams come true… Beautiful bouquets,vases,also blooming decorating the house for many- many days!

Connie is amazing! Connie helped make the flowers for my wedding perfect! She listened to everything I wanted and helped execute the winter wonderland wedding of my dreams! I would recommend Connie and Columbia Florist to anyone! They were such a pleasure to work with and their work was extraordinary! We will definitely be coming back! You guys are the best!!

THANK YOU MS PEGGY I ordered 2 arrangements over the phone from Washington DC to be picked up in the Bronx by my boyfriend as a gift from me to his mother. I was given the best customer service. The flowers couldn't have been more beautiful or the plants more luxurious. This was my second purchase. They DON'T disappoint

Amazingly vibrant and beautiful flower arrangement delivered, as promised, to my 90 year-old mom who was so happy with them! The arrangement looked just like the picture and the staff members addressed my call to confirm. I'll definitely be using them in the future!

Columbia Florist did the arrangements for my bridal shower and they were GORGEOUS! I didn’t know what I wanted and they were so helpful in helping create beautiful arrangements for a very fair price. The people there are also super sweet! Highly recommend!!

Columbia Florist provided the flowers for my daughters baptism in August. They were delivered despite a hurricane going on! The flowers were beautiful. They lasted over a week when we brought them home as well! I will definitely be calling them again.

I've been coming here for over ten years and not only are the plants well taken care of (I have a snake plant from there that keeps on yielding more and more plants), but staff/owners are always professional and helpful. Their flowers are great too!

In difficult time of loosing a loved ones you don’t know how to cope with the pain and sadness. I was recommend to Columbia Florist by a good friend of mine and was not disappointed. He was a Yankees fan and I wanted something that

As an event planner, I have worked with Connie and her team for over 10 years and have hired them as a vendor for every organization I worked for. That’s why it was a no-brainer to hire Columbia Florist for my wedding ceremony and

Absolutely beautiful flowers and the florists are so kind and helpful. Their selections and creations are also highly impressive and perfect for any occasion. Could not be happier with the bouquet I had made for my grandmother.

Cathy created a stunning casket blanket for my grandmother's funeral, along with two baskets of lovely re-pottable plants for us to put in our garden and by the grave. Kind, professional, and lovely work!!

The only place to buy flowers in Riverdale. The sisters who own and runs this place actually care about your order, they ask you questions. Quick with the bouquet and straightforward with the price.

Gorgeous and artful arrangements from Cathy and Connie and staff, all of whom are just lovely and invested in their work. They’ve certainly earned our 30 ( and counting) years of loyalty.

I ordered a funeral wreath and it was outstanding. The colors and flowers were spectacular. I also appreciated the personal phone call asking if I wanted anything special added.

I have been using this florist for over 20 years and they never disappoint in everything they do the love for flowers always show. They care so personable and professional.

The best flowers in the bronx for any occasion, especially weddings. They did my flowers and people are still talking about them. Every special event I get my flowers here

Thank you to Columbia Florist for making the most beautiful standing spray. The attention to detail and carefully picked flowers made the whole arrangement stand out.

Gorgeously arranged bouquet with a great assortment of open and closed buds for longevity. Very happy. The writing on the card was also beautifully lettered.

They are real nice and real smart about flowers and attending to the dead. They have some of the most beautiful & healthy orchids on hand.

Good place if you are in the area, but they overcharge if you use debit card and they did not tell me; so be ready with cash.

They're awesome!!!!! Courteous and professional and reliable. Speak clear English. Delivery punctual. GORGEOUS FLOWERS!!!!!
