This post is a sponsored product review for The Bouqs. While I was compensated, all views and opinions remain my own.
I regularly buy fresh flowers as gifts and for special occasions for friends and family, especially ones that live far away. There is just something special, heartfelt, and unique about receiving fresh flowers. They brighten your day. They stand out. They make a statement.
What I have always dreaded each time I order flowers are those surprise costs. I can usually find what I deem a reasonable price for a fresh flower bouquet on the web. But as I click through my shopping cart, I get more and more nervous as I get closer and closer to the final payment screen. You know what I am talking about! What will the delivery fee be? What is the handling fee? Is there a surcharge because I chose a Saturday or holiday delivery? What started out as a pleasing experience turns ever so slightly sour. I still am excited to send flowers, but not thrilled with all the added fees.
Solution: The Bouqs (as seen on Shark Tank, O! Oprah Magazine, Forbes, E!, The Today Show, & Popsugar). The Bouqs are changing the flower industry one bouquet at a time.
Traditional flower delivery services act as a middle man causing prices to increase and flower freshness to decrease. While I have never had a bad experience with wilted flowers being delivered, I have never surveyed my recipients to see just how fresh they really were and how long the bouquets lasted. I absolutely LOVE the idea of fresh cut flowers being sent to my loved ones.
The Bouqs own their own flower farm, growing flowers in the rich soil of an active volcano. The bouquet you purchase is cut to order and are sent to your door (or your gift recipient's door)! There is no waste, and there is no middle man, leaving you with great savings.
The Bouqs also take the pain out of choosing flowers. Their pricing is simple: its a $40 flat fee for all Original size bouquets with FREE SHIPPING. This allows you to choose the bouquet you love best without thinking about price!
In celebration of the upcoming Fourth of July holiday, The Bouqs are bringing back their Red, White and "Bouq" (which is red, white, and blue roses)! Check them out here! This bouquet is THE perfect gift to bring to the Fourth of July BBQ you are attending or hosting.
