We hired Riverside to supply flowers for our wedding. We went in with a minimalist vision, Sofia made some recommendations, and although at first we were unsure, we are so glad we followed her lead. I've attached a few photos of their work, but pay attention to the head table and to the guest tables. We originally wanted a single rose for guests, and greenery and a rose on the head table. Sofia suggested 3 roses per guest table, which, as seen, really completes the look. She also cautioned us not to make the head table busy with too many things. We rented vases from them, which made everything easy for us. They delivered flowers to our hall, and we had our best man pick up the bouquets, boutonnieres & and corsages, which were in comprehensive and organized packaging. They even accommodated us and had a boutonniere ready the day before so we could visit a family member at the cemetery and place one on their grave. All of the flowers were in fantastic condition and looked amazing. We couldn't be happier with their service. I've personally been here a few times and am looking forward to continuing to provide riverside with our business.

Riverside Flower Shop absolutely blew my expectations! I've been passing by this flower shop over the past couple of years whenever I'm in the neighborhood and have always thought it was pretty and quaint. Recently, however, I had ordered a bouquet online for my partner who was celebrating a career milestone, and needed prompt service and delivery. I placed my request on their website which is very easy to navigate and quite detailed. After filling out the required fields and sending my request over - again, needing a 24-hour turnaround - an associate called me and sent me a text message within half an hour to hash out details of the occasion, delivery location, and payment information. The associate was very helpful in setting up the final details. My order arrived right on time and my partner was blown away by the arrangement the florist had set up. And for the price, I was blown away myself! My partner mentioned that it was the most beautiful bouquet she has received ever. I will be a repeat customer moving forward for any occasion! Thank you, Riverside!

We were so thrilled with the design and service from Riverside Flower Shop for our September wedding. Sophia was very communicative and organized throughout the process, and helped shape my requests into a beautifully presented vision. We wanted yellow and white florals with green accents and some specific flowers, and Sophia guided us to the right choices given our budget and the season. We trusted Sophia's expertise and we couldn't be happier. My bridal bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets, centerpieces, and two altar pieces were all gorgeous. The setup was perfect, and Sophia helped us to change the floral displays from the ceremony to the reception. Everything flowed really well thanks to her communication and recommendations, such as using single stemmed white roses for the head table to complement our tall candles. I couldn't ask for a better experience!

I did an order a day before my mom's birthday. I was doing a favour for my aunt, who lives in Sydney, AUS, who wanted to surprise my mom with flowers but due to timezone differences, she couldn't submit the order on time. Sophia was really helpful and patient with my last-minute order. It was my first time ordering with the shop, but she was very communicative, even checking in with me after dropping off the flowers at my mom's. Sophia's help really made the process easier for me, especially since I was the middle man between my aunt and the flower shop! Thanks Sophia! The flowers were beautifully arranged and fresh and I might want to gift myself with a bouquet in the future... Definitely on my recommendations list. :)

Riverside Flower Shop did an incredible job on the florals for our July wedding! Leading up to the wedding, Sophia was super fun and easy to work with - she was very responsive, helped us choose options to stick within our budget, and was totally flexible even as we changed our mind on some decisions. Day-of, they absolutely nailed it with the florals - I particularly loved my bridal bouquet and the ceremony arch was straight out of my Pinterest-dreams! I appreciated that their team was able to deliver / set everything up for us at the venue, so I didn’t need to worry about anything day-of - we just got to walk into an elegantly decorated venue! I highly recommend Riverside Flowers for your wedding/event florals!

  • Nina Moradi

Discovered this gem of a store when I was looking for flowers for my moms bday. I walked in, the owner was so polite and I asked him to create a bouquet for me. He asked me my budget and colour palette when J I let him decide because he’s the artist. He whipped together a stunning bouquet in 5 minutes. My mother loved them. They were unique and beautiful. I had a birthday the next day so I decided to go back and get another bouquet, same experience. They have an eye for colour and their creations are one of a kind. I’ve decided I will be a forever customer, and this will be my go to flower shop from now on. The flowers were fresh, and not fully bloomed yet so I know the bouquets will last. Thank you Riverside!!

  • Sam Darling

Last Sunday was our wedding day and we had fall colors in the summer as our pallete. Riverside did an amazing job with the floral arrangements. So many people commented how gorgeous each flower compliment one another. I wish I could rate more than 5 stars because it was beyond our expectations. Communication and customer service excellent. Did not feel in anyway second guessing the job being done. We told Sophia the colour pallete and let her do the magic. She worked with our budget and I'm happy to have worked with her to include her floral vision into our big day. Highly recommend for weddings or just stopping by for a lovely arrangement to treat yourself.

  • Erin Houle

We have been customers at Riverside since 2020, so we were very excited to have them as our florists for our wedding! Sophia and Colin made our floral dreams come to life. We wanted a colourful palette and wild form, they did such an amazing job of balancing both to achieve a beautiful table scape of large centre pieces and bud vases. They helped us pick the appropriate flowers for our October wedding and were very knowledgeable as to what would be available. They gave suggestions and alternatives to suit our wants and needs. Everything was perfect from the consultation to the execution including table scape layout and setup. Thank you Sophia and Colin!

  • Anthea Lee

This is the best florist in all of Toronto. Sophia and Colin go above and beyond to make every occasion so special. I live in the UK now but reach out to Riverside anytime I need to send flowers to friends because they make it so easy to order flowers. They even helped pick up champagne to go along with a friend’s engagement bouquet! The flower arrangements are always the most beautiful and all of my friends on the receiving end always say that they are the most beautiful flowers they’ve ever received. And they last long too! Can not recommend Riverside enough. You and your recipients won’t be disappointed!!

  • martina mitchell

Used to come here only for in-house plants, and recently trusted them to do wedding florals... and they nailed it! Sophia was extremely responsive, helpful and showed a genuine interest in making us comfortable, aware of options and ultimately happy with our flowers. She gave quotes in a timely manner, shared examples of past work and was able to turn inspiration pictures into reality... all within our budget! They also delivered as well as set up the entire hall. Highly recommend using them for any upcoming event or general bouquet arrangements! Thanks so much for adding the final touches to our wedding <3

  • Kate Babak

Found this gem during the pandemic! Thank you so much for the care you put into your work. I have learned so much about the different flowers through your Instagram stories, stayed updated on things happening in the community and of course - got the cutest flowers. Special mention on how you hooked my bf on buying me flowers with you specifically by remembering him! You are a wonderful part of the Toronto community and your flowers and arrangements are gorgeous! Did I mention how much I love the Instagram stories and being able to order in DMs? Doesn't hurt to repeat myself. Flower power forever!!

  • Amina B. Shabani

I wanted to send flowers at the last minute to my sister to celebrate an important milestone in her life. I was ordering from New Jersey and it was so easy to place an order using the assigned google form. I also used the chat box on the website and received answers to my questions right away. I was so impressed with Riverside's exceptional customer service and how they deeply care about their patrons. The bouquet was simply STUNNING! Thank you thank you! I highly recommend Riverside Flower Shop and will always reach out for any future flower needs :)

  • Christina Cirillo

Sophia, Colin, and the Riverside team were a pleasure to work with! We hired Riverside Floral Shop for our wedding and couldn’t have been happier! From our bouquets and boutonnières, to our home flowers for the morning of, and especially our venue, we were blown away! Our vision was met and exceeded and we were happy to see it all come to life. The flowers lasted all day, and even longer, and they came out beautiful in photos. I highly recommend the Riverside Floral Shop team and I cannot wait to use them again! Thank you, Riverside Floral Shop!

  • Margaret MacKinnon

Riverside Flower Shop provided the florals for my wedding and did an absolutely AMAZING job - they completely blew us away and the centrepeices, ceremony arrangements, bridal party bouquets, and head table arrangements were just stunning. Sophia and Colin were also amazing to work with - so lovely, and have an amazing eye and talent for their craft. They brought our vision to life and exceeded our expectations. We are so so happy we went with them for our wedding florals, and will be lifelong customers.

  • Casey Rand

Living in the neighbourhood, we have passed the shop many times and decided to check it out. The customer service was terrible. The person in-store was cold and unhelpful. We had to rearrange the bouquet ourselves because they provided no assistance. It almost felt like our presence in the shop was a burden. It's a shame because the store looks cute and the flowers are lovely. However, I would rather support another business that makes their clients feel appreciated and not like a bother.

  • mahdokht mojiri

Last few weeks ago I ordered this beautiful flowers. I was calling them from Netherlands. I ordered it online. Even though I was in contact with them from the Netherlands, they coordinated very well. They delivered the flower exactly at the time I wanted. Their idea for design is unique. I really liked this flower shop. Classy with the speed of action. Good manners With high time management. Professional And it was exactly what I wanted. Wishing them the best

  • Naomi&Steven Peltz&Falk

Riverside Flower Shop is the best flower shop in Toronto, hands down! They created Art Deco-Rainbow-Magic for our wedding day. The flowers were so beautiful, and made the day so special. You could tell they were made with love, and they were so responsive to all our inquiries and wishes along the way. I can't wait to have more events where I need flowers just so I can order from them again!

  • Philip C

Riverside Flowers has never failed to deliver an outstanding product each time I've used them. Always willing to work with me to customize my arrangement to my specific requests and pricing is more than reasonable for what they do compared to other shops in town. Don't hesitate to have them make something amazing on your special day. Just some examples of creations I've done with them.

  • Tania I

This place is the best! I always get the most beautiful and full flower arrangements here and at the best price. A go-to shop for those days where you just need a little treat: some eucalyptus to hang above your shower, a beautifully potted succulent or bonsai, or whatever catches your eye, really. They also provide helpful support and creative alternatives for event decor. A+

  • Shamim Shabani

My sister ordered flowers for me from this shop remotely to celebrate a big milestone. They abided by their same day delivery promise (though I missed their arrival and had to arrange a pick up). The flowers were gorgeous and the floral arrangements so thoughtful. Highly recommend their shop for anyone looking for a flowers to celebrate their special moments.

  • Meena Bhardwaj

Definitely one of my favourite flower shops in the City!! The quality, selection and service of Riverside Flower Shop is unmatched! Their custom arrangements are absolutely gorgeous! Sophia is really kind and responsive (even during the busiest of occasions like Mother's Day) and works with you to make sure you get exactly what you're hoping for.

  • Melissa

I bought my wedding bridal bouquet at Riverside Flower Shop and was blown away by how beautiful it was. I had so many compliments from guests. Sophia was amazing and very communicative throughout the process. She responded quickly via email and was helpful with sending pictures so that she could get an idea of my vision. Five stars all around!

  • Diane L

I walked in here and got a custom bouquet. The gentleman makes the most beautiful bouquets. There are other florist on this street and I’ve gone to them as well, but nothing like his. He’s very helpful and extremely talented. He’s quick too - he made my bouquet in 10mins like he knew what I wanted. Will only order from him moving forward.

  • Erika Geremia

I love this flower shop. I moved further away and will still come back to get my bouquets here. The dad is INCREDIBLE at putting together arrangements. They are always polite and knowledgeable, plus they'll put together non-traditional bouquets if you ask for it. Using more unique flowers that you don't often see.

  • Eddymar Medina

Susie is the best!! She helped me pick 2 beautiful vases for my living room plus some lavender and pampas which turned out so pretty!! I love it!! She’s the best. I highly recommend this place. There’s a lot of cute things to pick from the store plus amazing flowers 5 stars for this store ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ …

  • Palak Verma

I live in Montréal, I ordered flowers for my boyfriend this valentines. They were customized and they were exactly like I wanted. They delivered it on promised time. They do have plethora of variety for fresh flowers, to mention roses were quite big and they were fresh. The price was worth it .

  • Alana L

The bouquet I ordered turned out beautifully! Friendly and easy to work with through email. When the person who was supposed to pick the order up didn't show, the shop was super accommodating and delivered them to my friend last minute. Saved the day and my friend loved them, thanks so much!

  • Serena S

pre-ordered a bouquet for my graduation, was beyond happy with how it looked :) I selected a bouquet for reference from their website that was well above my budget, but they still managed to give me something similar that fit within mine. it is well worth every penny imo:)

  • Diana K

Absolutely great vendor! Not only do they provide beautiful arrangements but they also work with you to create a bouquet within your budget. Great customer service and are willing to go above and beyond to make sure the recipient receives their flowers within the day!

  • Annie Basterfield

My husband and I are so thrilled with our wedding flowers from Riverside! We worked with Sophia over the past few months and she is the BEST! She is so incredibly talented and provided the best service to us. We will be Riverside customers for life :)

  • Michelle Lee

Great place, and way more affordable than the other flower shops in the neighbourbood. I was searching for orchids and went to 3 different places in the area before finding really beautiful orchids here. The owner is very helpful and friendly.

  • Diana Cina

I am so impressed with Riverside Flower Shop. I ordered sympathy flowers from them over the phone and gave my colour requests and they created a beautiful basket. I'll definitely be ordering from them again. Highly recommend!

  • Meg Geurts

This place is fantastic! Such great people and they always make the most gorgeous bouquets! They're happy to make custom ones on the spot (don't be last minute around holidays though!) As this place is deservingly busy.

  • Cherr X.

Absolutely love and abide by Riverside Flower Shop. We've been a 3x recurring customer now and will be for life! Their creations are absolutely beautiful and unique, and the price is on point! Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Sophia from Riverside was SO helpful in sending a bouquet to my cousins family in Toronto. We are in Calgary and she was amazing and the flowers she sent were stunning!!! HIGHLY recommend this business.
