1. Ode à la Rose

The ever-so-chic Ode á la Rose is one of those places where you can splash out if you wish, or keep the budget pretty low if you fancy it. Ode á la Rose has it all, from large and incredible flashy bouquets to small elegant bunches of carefully-selected roses. And the best bit? You can browse by category, including occasion, color, delivery and price, so you’ll waste no time getting to the good stuff. Plus, they arrive looking mighty fine, hand-tied and placed in a special box.

One of the biggest take homes from the various lockdowns we all had to endure during the peak of the pandemic was to support our communities. Flowers For Dreams are doing just that with a firm shop local initiative. They only source blooms from farms in Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin, and they hand-deliver all their orders. To top it off, FFD set up a foundation to raise vital funds for local charities. They donate a quarter of all profits and in the last decade have raised almost $1m for charity. Want to help? All you have to do is order some beautiful blooms.

UrbanStems is perfect for those flowers you’re getting for your best friend to go to her brand new swanky pad in Hyde Park. These are hand-picked by florists with serious taste, seasonally matched and seriously trendy. Whether you’re looking for tiny succulents for a bedroom, dried flowers to last forever or a proper splash-out bouquet, UrbanStems has you covered. And they do overnight shipping, too, so you’re sorted.

4. ProFlowers

We like the ethos behind ProFlowers, and the quality of what they do is exceptional, too. These guys led the way when it came to providing consumers direct access to growers (think of these as a farm-to-fork for flower delivery), and you can totally see the benefit. The quality of the bouquets and blooms on offer is exceptionally high, with a tangible freshness to the cut that makes their seven-day guarantee damn easy for them to fulfill. There’s a really solid selection, too – from fancy bunches all the way through to bonsai trees and swanky hampers. Highly recommended.

5. The Bouqs Co.

Though this is a national floral-delivery service, the company has more compelling arrangements than the humdrum bouquets of carnations and daisies you see on some competitor sites. In fact, The Bouqs Co. sources all of its flowers from eco-friendly and socially responsible farms, with the blooms cut the same day you order them. The ordering process is satisfyingly streamlined and the price you see is the price you get. Bonus: the delivery fee is included. Choose from dozens of floral designs, with same-day flower delivery in Chicago also available.

6. Roses Only

You'd be forgiven for thinking the only flower you can get from Roses Only is, well, roses, but you'd be wrong. Typically they do only sell those romantic blooms, but for special occasions, they've added pink lilies, wildflowers and glorious golden sunflowers to their selection. Get them mixed together or solo in a statement bouquet and add a box of Godiva chocolates for that extra special touch. And for the florally challenged, you can even purchase Infinity Roses, which are real flowers that have been specially treated to last for an entire year.

7. From You Flowers

If you need a bouquet in a hurry, From You Flowers is the answer to your petal prayers. They offer same-day delivery as long as you get your order in before 3 pm, so you won’t be left empty-handed on an important anniversary that may have slipped your mind. The prices are great, too. You might not score the fanciest blooms in the world, but you can get a beautiful bunch on a budget. And who doesn't love a deal, right?

Floom

8. Floom

If you like flowers, you’ve probably heard of Floom. Its huge in both the US and the UK, and for good reason, as its incredibly trendy bouquets are shipped to Chicago from all over the country. Its (not so secret) secret? Floom isn’t one company, rather it’s a delivery service for a whole load of independent florists, enabling you to choose exactly which one is right for you. You can browse by occasion, and even choose to view only florists with same-day delivery. That’s your gift sorted.

Sprout Home might be better known for its houseplant and garden selection, but the West Town shop also crafts leafy, gorgeous flower arrangements that can be delivered within the Chicago area. Choose from one of several color group themes ("Dawn" gets you pastel tones while "Storm" draws from inky violets and dramatic textures) and one of the shop's florists will create a custom bouquet from a seasonal selection. Looking for a longer-term floral decor option? You can also order bunches of preserved blooms, which are available in punchy pinks and fuschia in addition to the muted colors more typical of dried flowers.
