A Date With Iris

Oklahoma City’s best florists! 🌸 Kris and Amy make the most beautiful arrangements in town. They always have a gorgeous selection of exotic blooms and the shop itself is so fun! They have a wild array of gifts, anything but basic. It’s definitely not one of those 1-800-FLOWERS places that have the same dusty, tired menu. 😅 These ladies are artists 🤌✨just tell them the vibes and they will blow your mind with something better than you could have even imagined 😍💐💐💐

Always the most breathtaking flowers! They can make a single rose look like the most special gift, and their bouquets always look like their straight out of a magazine. They have a great selection of fun gifts, and the best card selection in the city!!

Absolutely wonderful shop! I called for a same day delivery for my best friend's birthday, and they were able to not only fit me in but create a stunning bouquet that was exactly what I was looking for. The person I spoke with on the phone was also incredibly kind.

The lady was very kind and helped us making a perfect last minute bouquet. I showed her an inspiration photo and told her she can be creative with it and she made it so much better.

As an organic cannabis farmer that also grows flowers on our farm in Oregon—and someone who grew up in OKC—I was excited to support a local floral shop for Mother’s Day. I even share mutual friends with Amy in the art and music scene, so I thought this would be a heartfelt connection. Unfortunately, what I received was far from that. I paid over $100 (including delivery) and specifically requested no orange or dusty pink, no warm tones—the bouquet was entirely those colors. It was also significantly smaller than the arrangement I ordered last year from this same shop at a lower price. As someone who grows peonies myself, I understand their cost and value—and I know they’re perennials, relatively low-effort to maintain, and not rare at all. Just seasonal like tulips, ranunculus, anemones etc. I asked for peonies and showed pictures online of the arrangement from last year filled with peonies. When I asked why it was so much smaller (even when I paid more this year) and only had two peonies, Amy sassily remarked that flowers prices have gone up “astronomically” and peonies are $8-10 a stem. Okay well for $80 then include at least 6 peonies and the rest with filler foliage. Super basic math. I told her she should have communicated that beforehand and asked if I wanted all peonies or some with other filler flowers. Tbh when I ordered the flowers she was short with me and didn’t seem bothered to care what I had to say. Should have taken that as a red flag from the egotistical monster she’s become. Florists may justify the inflated pricing with excuses like “higher demand,” “labor,” or “limited availability,” especially around holidays. But what this really is, is emotional price gouging—manipulating sentiment for profit rather than celebrating it with integrity. That kind of business model turns meaningful gestures into overpriced transactions, and it shows. When I calmly called to explain my concerns, I disclosed that I’m autistic and was trying to advocate for myself because she wouldn’t let me finish a single sentence. I said I was getting overwhelmed and that this was hard for me as she continued to over talk my every word with extreme hostility. It had me very startled. Instead of compassion, I was met with yelling, dismissal, and cruelty. Amy steamrolled me the entire time, wouldn’t let me get a word out, and left me in tears. I had to have my husband take over the call because I couldn’t emotionally handle the way she was treating me. The experience left me deeply shook. I was not expecting that at all from someone in a customer service job. All she had to do was take accountability for her mistake and say sorry and deliver a new bouquet in exchange for the wrong one or refund me. It’s that simple. We even offered to pay an additional delivery fee! This unprofessional experience didn’t need to happen. She refused any resolution other than a 20% refund or have my mother (the recipient of this gift) go out of her way to awkwardly bring the bouquet in to change out a couple flowers, which is unacceptable. I reasonably requested a new bouquet delivered to her I was met with laughter and ego. What hurt also is that this shop brands itself around artistry and community—but it became painfully clear that if you’re not “someone” on Amy’s radar or someone wealthy, you’re not treated with respect. She said “you only spent $100 so that’s what you get”. Two peonies and cheap filler flowers. That kind of judgmental, elitist energy has no place in customer service business. This was one of the most degrading experiences I’ve had as a customer—let alone a neurodivergent one. In the end, I was refunded minus delivery fee after they realized how embarrassing their behavior was. I believe in supporting local, in giving grace, and in honest dialogue. But I also believe in calling out abusive behavior—especially toward disabled people trying to advocate for themselves. This was a painful and unnecessary experience, and I will never support this shop again. Amy, get some help you are toxic.
