FAQ Washington D.C.

When you order with Ode à la Rose, rest assured that your flowers are in the best hands. We offer swift and reliable same-day delivery across key cities: D.C., Miami, Austin, L.A., Chicago, and NYC. For our valued customers outside these locations, our next-day delivery service, catered through FedEx, ensures your blooms reach the rest of the States with equal care.

Safety and satisfaction are paramount to us. However, in the rare instance where you might question the quality of the received arrangement, our refund policy has you covered.

If your order is on time but doesn't meet your expectations, we stand ready to replace the bouquet. We require that you contact us within 24 hours of the delivery. It's essential to note, though, that flowers, by nature, are perishable items, and their longevity can be maximized with the proper care.
Choosing Ode à la Rose in Washington D.C. guarantees beautiful blooms and a seamless transaction process. We proudly cater to various payment preferences, accepting all major credit cards—MasterCard, Visa, American Express, or Discover.

And for those who lean towards digital transaction platforms, we're pleased to offer the option of PayPal payments. At Ode à la Rose, every step, from picking the perfect bouquet to finalizing the payment, is designed with your convenience in mind.
In the bustling streets of D.C., we understand that sometimes recipients might not be home. Our process has been refined for such scenarios. Our couriers are not bound to obtain a signature for delivery. Instead, they're trained to identify safe spots to leave the bouquet, ensuring its safety until the recipient returns.

The courier will attempt another delivery later if a secure location isn't evident. So, with Ode à la Rose, your heartfelt gesture is always in safe hands, even if the intended recipient isn't immediately available.
In D.C., when choosing Ode à la Rose for your floral delivery needs, the delivery fee is primarily determined by the size of your selected bouquet.

For most arrangements, you can anticipate a delivery charge of $18. However, if you opt for one of our petite bouquets available for same-day delivery in the city, the fee is a mere $8. On the other hand, for those grand gestures using our huge bouquets or our exquisite preserved rose collections, the delivery cost is set at $25. Whatever your choice, know that each delivery encapsulates the elegance and care that defines Ode à la Rose.

Nope! When we started out, we focused on rose bouquets and offered only premium rose arrangements. As we grew and developed a loyal client base, we wanted to expand our offerings and switch things up. Now we offer amazing seasonal flowers like peonies, tulips and ranunculus, as well as bouquets with an assorted arrangement of blooms. We'll always keep our dear collection of classic rose bouquets, but we're always looking for new ways to please our flower-lovers

All of our bouquets are prepared in our local workshops in NYC, Chicago, LA, Austin, Miami, or Washington DC by our specially trained florists. Each of our florists have mastered the French method of rounded, hand-tied bouquets. You'll find your design finished with a natural raffia tie - we recommend leaving this in tact so your bouquet holds its shape!

No, but vases are available to add on with your order at checkout! Some of our arrangements do come with a vase included like our petite rose bouquets in the small jar, and our grand rose bouquets. In these cases, we clearly state that the vase is included in the product description. If you see a vase available to add, that means the vase is not included. All of our arrangements do come in water - we use a water-filled recyclable container nestled in your gift box so stems stay hydrated

Absolutely - the note is one of the most important parts! After you have selected your favorite bouquet, you will be given the opportunity to write a few words on our specially designed Ode à la Rose cards. You can also choose to upload a favorite photograph, which we will print out on glossy paper and include with your note.

All our bouquets automatically have a "signature release," which means that our bouquets can be dropped off without requiring a signature. In most cases, the delivery driver will knock or ring the bell, and if there is no answer we will leave the product somewhere safe at the delivery location. Please be sure to include your recipient's phone number in your order so that we may contact them with any questions during delivery (but don't worry, we won't call in advance and ruin the surprise!).

Please contact our customer service team ([email protected]) as quickly as possible so that your changes can be taken into account before delivery. Please include your order number to help our staff process your request as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, we technically need 24 hours to update order details - however, we'll do everything we can to make changes before delivery!

This depends on what you'd like to customize! Give us a call or send us an email at [email protected] to learn more.

Our bouquets are hand-designed with raffia and wrapped in kraft paper for a true Parisian experience. Most of our bouquets are then placed in an anti-spill recyclable container filled with water to ensure that they are hydrated during delivery. Your arrangement will arrive in our signature pink gift box - safe and sound for your recipient to enjoy!

You'll receive an email with a photo of your bouquet as it leaves our studio. This is a quick snapshot to give you peace of mind as your order heads out for delivery. You'll receive a second email from our team notifying you that your bouquet has been delivered!

Our lead designers create seasonal arrangements each month using the most beautiful flowers currently in bloom. We follow the same recipe as shown in our online photographs, and local designers will make thoughtful substitutions if any varieties are out of stock.
