Fantastic experience: My go-to florist in Pittsburgh! I've gotten bouquet's here a few times now and this time was a custom order rather than one of their beautiful prearranged options. I gave them some ideas of what my wife liked and they absolutely nailed it!

Drew Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: very satisfied with my order. I ordered online around 8am for flowers to be delivered same day to my long distance partner (I’m in Virginia) and saw this place was highly recommended. It did not disappoint. Flowers as expected as shown from website page, my partner said they’re beautiful. I gave specific delivery instructions which were followed so they weren’t left out instead at their apartment door inside. I only wish there was some type of delivery confirmation email/text to the sender, other than that I will definitely be using this business for future flowers!

Fantastic experience: They are a great florist! The customer service was excellent when I placed my order and the basket, even though I requested it on very short notice, was ready when I arrived to pick it up.

Amanda Carvelli Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Wow!! Working with David was so much fun! For the 62nd Medallion Ball, Blumengarten understood our vision and produced a gorgeous look for our event. Soft, feminine, not too grown up, preppy and perfect for a ball. Can’t wait to work with Blumengarten again! Amanda Carvelli Event Planning & Design

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Jim Ludwig's Blumengarten enough!!!! They did our wedding flowers. The delivery to the church and reception venue was seamless. All the florals for the ceremony were beautiful and my bouquet was just as I had envisioned it! I also had an odd request for my reception center pieces - I wanted little Christmas trees with flowers in them. After consulting with other florists, they wanted to charge an arm and a leg or have me purchase the trees and pots myself. Sherry at Jim Ludwig's saw my inspiration photo and handled EVERYTHING without breaking the bank. I was so happy with how they came out and having to do none of the work myself was made my wedding day so much less stressful. They really made my Christmas wedding dreams come true!!

Fantastic experience: We couldn’t believe how gorgeous all of the floral arrangements looked from Jim Ludwig’s Blumengarten for our Rehearsal Dinner & Wedding day. Even more fun to see them again at our brunch the next day! We got so many compliments! Thank you all so much!

Margot Beck Dwyer Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: So happy I went with Jim Ludwig’s for my flowers. They actually the most reasonably priced out of all the options I considered, but their customer service was by far the best. They were super communicative and put together a really nice proposal with pictures to give me an idea of what the flowers would look like. They exceeded by expectations with the final result. I would never have called myself a particular admirer of flowers, and I couldn’t take my eyes off of them. So many compliments. They were just exquisite. Thank you guys for making my day extra beautiful!

Léon Simmons Published on Google 6 months ago

Negative experience: Ordered a bouquet for an anniversary. Mentioned a rose allergy. Flower bundle had roses when picked up. They were otherwise beautiful and reasonably priced - but if you have special requests, especially including allergies, I would find a different shop. Disappointed.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Léon. I never want a disappointed customer and its disappointing to hear that your request regarding not including roses was not met. I checked our order and our staff had noted it was a designers choice arrangement and to include sunflowers and daisies. It looks like we missed noting a rose allergy and wish at pickup that was mentioned and we could have fixed it on the spot for you. We're glad you found the bouquet beautiful and reasonably priced, but understand that the inclusion of roses affected your experience. We would love to make this right for you if you give us the opportunity.

Fantastic experience: Whatever reason this came up in your Google search, go. This is the place. I walked in so nervous and embarrassed about my lack of knowledge and even specificity of what I wanted. Two women greeted me as soon as they saw me, and the one stayed and helped me figure out what I was looking for. One of the employees immediately walked to their wholesaler to see what they had, brought back a couple of options, and let me buy a stem from each. They were so friendly, so kind, and helpful. This is where you want to go.

Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your experience and kind words. It’s wonderful to hear that you felt welcomed and supported from the moment you arrived. The team is dedicated to making every visit comfortable, no matter how much floral knowledge a guest may have. Your thoughtful feedback truly means a lot.

Marielle Cafaro Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Wow, just wow! Jim Ludwig’s Blumengarten absolutely blew me away. I gave them the most confusing direction (something like “whimsy but timeless but also cool girl and fresh” ) and somehow, they completely nailed it. The flowers were beyond anything I could have imagined: beautiful, unique, and exactly the vibe I didn’t know how to describe. The team was so kind and patient with me (even with my constantly changing mind), and their service was incredible. They delivered everything to the venue, set it all up perfectly, and even hand-delivered my bouquet to me personally. I couldn’t have asked for a better florist, they made my vision come to life in the most magical way. Highly, highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Everything was perfect from the moment I called. Another florist was unable to provide what their website advertised. Ludwig's was able to do a blanket we were looking for, and the flowers that accompanied the blanket were absolutely beautiful.

Fantastic experience: I am out of town and needed to send a sympathy bouquet to a friend. I looked around and ended up calling Ludwig’s. I was not disappointed. The gal on the phone was so nice and helpful and walked me through the process. It was the end of the day when I ordered and the bouquet was delivered the next day with a nice note. They even sent me a picture so I could see it (I asked for the pic).

Debbie Childree Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great flowers, greenery, and customer service for our Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party that were both on the Strip! We live out of town so were working with Tim long distance. Tim and his staff were great listeners, with great attention to detail. Everything was done perfectly, was on time, and exceeded my expectations with the design and vision decisions. They were so trustworthy and dependable! Thank you Tim and Blumengarten!

Fantastic experience: Blumengarten was the florist for my wedding at Hotel Monaco and we were beyond impressed! I came into this process really knowing nothing about flowers and having a bare bones idea of what I was looking for and Sherry helped bring my ideas to life! She gave great suggestions and everything looked exactly as I envisioned it would. The flowers looked amazing all through the event and all of the arrangements held up really well. We got so many compliments on the flowers. Blumengarten also helped my mother in law with floral arrangements for our rehearsal dinner and I know she was very pleased with those as well. Thank you Blumengarten and Sherry!

Fantastic experience: I had such a lovely experience with Jim Ludwig’s Blumengarten Florist! I called in to purchase an orchid, and Ashley was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional on the phone. She made the entire process easy and pleasant, answering my questions with such care and making sure everything was just right as I too am a florist in Canada and was slightly picky lol The orchid was absolutely stunning — healthy, elegant, and beautifully presented. You can tell they take real pride in the quality of their flowers and their customer service. I’m so glad I chose Blumengarten, and I’ll definitely be returning for future floral needs. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: What a fantastic florist this place is! I was looking for a local Pittsburgh place to deliver flowers to my sister for her birthday. I'm in Chicago and this place was recommended by another florist in the area that wasn't able to take my order. Wow! Like wow! ☺️ They did an absolutely beautiful job with the few directions I gave. It's like they read my mind. The attached photo is what they ended up creating. It's beautiful and exactly what I had in mind...and my sister is so enjoying them! Thank you!! Your designers are amazing!!! Highly recommend! So easy to order. I just gave them a call...friendly and reliable.

Highly recommend this florist.

Fantastic experience: I cannot express how thrilled we are with the floral arrangements from Jim Ludwig’s Blumengarten for our wedding! From the first consultation, Sherry took the time to listen to our ideas and worked with us to create a vision that was absolutely perfect. They brought our dream to life with their incredible talent and creativity. The flowers were stunning – from the bouquets to the table greenery, everything was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. The colors and textures were perfectly coordinated, and every detail was thoughtfully designed. The florals added such a magical touch to our day and truly transformed the venue into a moody winter wonderland. On top of the beautiful arrangements, Sherry and all of the staff were an absolute joy to work with. They were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.

Fantastic experience: Everyone is so nice at this flower shop. I live out of state now and my godfather passed away in the Penn Hills area.

Positive experience: Review of Blumengarten's Service on Valentine's Day 2024: **Long-standing Patronage**: Customer since 2009, consistently receiving over and beyond quality service for 15 years. **Valentine's Day Experience**: Disappointing and unlike previous experiences. **Issues Faced**: Personal Design Ignored. Custom design request brushed off, contrary to past experiences. **Access to Selection**: Denied access to the freezer for personal flower selection, a privilege previously granted. **Perceived Unwelcoming Attitude**: Felt unwelcome by the female staff. **Owner Unavailability**: Owner, known personally by the customer, was reportedly unavailable to assist. **Service Quality**: The provided arrangement lacked key elements and did not meet the usual standards of personalization and design. **Lack of Collaboration**: Customer's input in the arrangement process was disregarded. Suggestions for Improvement 1. Consistency in Service: Ensure long-term customers receive the service they have come to expect, even during busy periods. 2. Customer Involvement: Maintain customer involvement in the selection and design process, especially for those with a history of personalized requests. 3. Staff Training: Improve staff training on customer recognition and racial sensitivity to avoid any perception of bias. 4. Accessibility to Selections: Review policies on allowing customers to select from exclusive areas, ensuring consistency. 5. Communication: Enhance communication among staff to be aware of special privileges granted to long-standing customers. 6. Feedback Mechanism: Implement a robust feedback mechanism for customers to voice concerns immediately and directly. 7. Time Management: Better manage time and resources during peak periods to prevent compromised service quality. 8.Personalization: Strive to maintain the level of personalization and attention to detail that loyal customers have appreciated in the past. Concluding Note: While understanding the pressures of Valentine's Day, it's crucial to uphold the standards of service and personalization that have defined Blumengarten's reputation, especially for long-term customers. Mr. E. GREEN, MPPM, PMP

Fantastic experience: I knew Dave from Hepatica. I did not know that he was working at Ludwig’s Blumengsrten. We arranged a meeting for my daughters wedding. Dave was thoughtful, friendly, had great ideas and inspiration, and listened well to our ideas and thoughts. We were so delighted with all of his creations. The ballroom looked beautiful complete with fabulous high and low centerpieces; votive candles;and plants. My daughters bouquet was stunning! It was unusual, thoughtful, elegant, Inc. or ideas as well as his thoughtful suggestions. Dave was fun to work with, and knew what would look good in the room, and with our color palette. We had a lot of fun working together as a team, and the results were gorgeous! I would highly recommend Dave for all of your floral needs.

Fantastic experience: I live out of town, so I jumped online to find a highly rated florist to send an arrangement to my best friend for her 50th birthday. The website gave the option to choose “Designers Choice”, and I gave a few notes as to my color preferences. The largest and most magnificent arrangement was delivered to my friend, and we are actually giddy about its size and beauty. She is thrilled which means I am thrilled! She was not previously familiar with this florist but said she’s going to keep their contact info for the future.

Fantastic experience: After my mother died last month, I wanted to send her best friend some flowers. I found Jim Ludwig's Blumengarten Florist on Google. Not only could they send the flowers the same day, but, they also have specials which are based on what is in season. When I sent the flowers to my mom's friend, she said the bouquet reminded her of her friendship with my mom! It was beautiful! <3 They also offer additions of local chocolate, which I also added. Thank you, Jim Ludwig's Blumengarten Florist for making this so easy & so beautiful!

Fantastic experience: We used this florist for our wedding. We ordered bridal and bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, and bulk flowers for table decor. They provided gorgeous florals that fit our budget. I picked up our flowers the day before our wedding, and I was able to keep them alive and well until the wedding day at my home thanks to their care in packaging and preparing them. The bouquets were absolutely beautiful and I am so pleased with how they turned out. I definitely recommend for brides on a budget.

Fantastic experience: Their website was easy to navigate. Delivery was quick and they went the extra mile. The receiver (84F) said she had never received a prettier bouquet in her life! And I quite agree!

Fantastic experience: Our family would like to thank the entire team at Blumengarten Florist for the exquisite floral arrangements they designed for our mother's funeral service. The freshest flowers in soft hues were combined with lush greenery to create beautifully coordinated sprays and arrangements. Family and friends remarked how our mother Bernadette would admire the artfully designed flowers on display. Many thanks to Alex for her extraordinary customer service to get our order just right and put our minds at ease while planning a sorrowful event.

Fantastic experience: It's hard enough to get someone's image of flowers correctly but your Florist went above and beyond. And Alex who handled my tearful phone call could not have been kinder or more professional.. I will always always be grateful... The flowers were just stunning

Fantastic experience: We have ordered numerous sympathy lanterns from here and each time have been told how beautiful they are. I highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: I ordered flowers from the Blumengarten Florist online and they outsourced them to Community Flower Shop on Library Road as they dont service the delivery area of my delivery. I paid for a deluxe arrangement and it was not to my expectations. This was not Blumengarten's fault but despite that they offered to partially refund me. Excellent customer service by them. It is a family owned business and cleaerly they care about building lasting relationships. I would defintely use them again.

Fantastic experience: We used Blumengarten for my wedding in May 2022 and couldn’t have been more pleased with how they brought my vision to life in a seamless, beautiful, and very reasonably priced way. Sherry did a phenomenal job making choices that aligned with my vision and my budget. Everything was stunning and we are so happy with the result. Thank you again!!

Fantastic experience: We don’t live anywhere near PA and we had a family member traveling there to celebrate a birthday. We called and asked if they could deliver to a hotel, gave them some very general info and told them to come up with something amazing and it was truly spectacular. Cannot recommend them highly enough. They did amazing work and delivered it early on the day of delivery with no issues getting it to the room, etc.

Fantastic experience: Just saw a picture of the arrangement Blumengarten Florist delivered to my sister. Delivery turned out to be tricky, but they persevered and got the flowers to her. I am from North Georgia and it would have been easy to have been ignored or overlooked; however, I was kept informed all the way until the order was fulfilled. I don’t recall ever having such wonderful customer service along with a gorgeous product from a florist.

Fantastic experience: Received a delivery from Jim’s and the flowers are gorgeous. The order had been placed from out of state, and there were no issues. A week later, and the bouquet is still looking good.

Fantastic experience: We used Jim Blumengarten for our November 2022 wedding and can't say enough things about our experience! In the initial meeting, they were so helpful in understanding our vision for the wedding and the styles, color schemes, etc. that we desired. And the floral arrangements that they were provided were exactly what we desired! They helped make our church, our tables, our wedding party and most importantly us (the bride and groom) look absolutely perfect. And on top of the beauty of the flowers was how easy the Blumengarten team was to work with. Total professionals at every step of the way. Whereas we figured we'd have to help coordinate things with the various venues and locations, instead all we had to do was give the Blumengarten team the info and they took it from there. Working with them on the wedding day was such a comfort--you knew you were in the presence of seasoned veterans at this and they were well-prepared to make our day great (they even provided a valuable lesson in the proper way to pin a boutonniere). Highly recommend Jim Blumengarten for your wedding day!

Fantastic experience: We ordered flowers to be placed atop my mother’s closed casket. They were stunning. Everyone commented on them and even the funeral director said she had never seen anything so beautiful. Thank you Blumengarten for helping to make the day so special.

Fantastic experience: Jim Ludwig's Blumengarten did the florals for my wedding on 0/24/22. The florals came out so beautiful. They matched our bridesmaid's dresses perfectly and looked as if they were picked straight from Phipp's beautiful displays. Sherry was such a pleasure to work with. She was very responsive and made any changes/answered any questions I had along the way. So happy with everything Blumengarten did!

Fantastic experience: Love this local florist. They’re so accommodating and my mom really appreciates their arrangements. I call from out of state and they always remember me. Have a standing relationship with them! I’ve had to use other florists for my MIL , and wish I could find someone in Mars as reliable as Blumengarten. Blumengarten is reliable!!

Fantastic experience: Jim Ludwig's Blumengarten was the florist for our wedding in July- everything they created was gorgeous! I met with Sherry and provided a few pictures and ideas and they brought the vision to life in a way that I couldn't have imagined. Beyond beautiful. They were also incredibly patient with me as I made additions and edits to my order and accommodated the delivery/timeline requests on the day of the wedding. I had a wonderful experience working with them!

Fantastic experience: This was the first time that I ordered flowers and I sent them to my Aunt. The girl on the phone was so nice, kind and helpful. My Aunt received the flowers and she said that they were so fresh and absolutely beautiful. If you need to send flowers, I highly recommend Blumengarten.
