Real Florist Shop Local

At We Are Florists everything begins with a real local flower expert, a trained florist. Every bouquet is designed by hand, arranged with skill and delivered personally by a working florist who cares deeply about your order.

Local is not a trend. It is how we keep craft, community and small business alive on the High Street, at a time when supermarkets and national websites are taking more and more orders away from real florists.

Consumers need to know that ordering from other national UK websites is simply not as direct as using We Are Florists. Our platform connects only with Florist Window website clients, creating a nationwide community of real florists who work together with one shared purpose.

Florist Window did not happen by chance — florists made it happen. They talked, they joined in their hundreds, and they committed to one goal: to sell direct and keep the full profit for the work they create.

In 2025, no florist should be paying a percentage on orders. For just £79 per month, a Florist Window website gives florists their own online shop, their own payment gateway, and the ability to take direct orders with no commission at all. This is how florists finally compete fairly with national companies that charge fees, service charges or take a cut of every order.

Protecting True Handcrafted Floristry

National order gatherers, supermarkets and boxed flower brands are removing real florists from the buying process. Many websites look like florists but are not. We built We Are Florists so there is at least one national website that exists purely to champion real shops and keep floristry where it belongs — in the hands of florists.

We Deliver Bouquets, Not Boxes

Many national flower sites send flat-packed stems in a cardboard box. Clever and cost-cutting, but it is not floristry. The moment of delight on the doorstep is replaced by a do-it-yourself kit.

We Are Florists does things differently. Every order is made up as a hand-tied bouquet or arrangement by a real local florist and delivered with care — never through a letterbox.

Simple, Honest, Direct

You enter the delivery postcode, town or village. We match your order to the closest florist in our community who can deliver there.

You place your order on We Are Florists and pay securely online. Payment is processed through that florist’s own Florist Window payment gateway, so the florist receives 100% of the value (minus card fee).

No relay network, no middlemen, no warehouse. Just real florists fulfilling real orders.

What #ShopLocal Means To Us

#ShopLocal means supporting people, not platforms. You support a florist who lives and works in the community you are sending flowers to. You support skilled artisans, local jobs and greener delivery routes.

Most of our florists are small independent businesses, many turning over under the VAT threshold. Your order genuinely makes a difference to them.

A National Shop, Not A Listing Site

We Are Florists is not a directory. There are no paid listings, no adverts, no multiple florist options competing on one page. It is a national online flower shop that routes each order to one florist — the closest real florist in our community.

You shop in one place, but every bouquet is made by an independent florist, not a warehouse.

Where Your Money Really Goes

Other national sites take a percentage, add service fees, or send orders to relay networks or couriers. Florists often receive far less than the customer’s spend.

On We Are Florists you pay the florist directly. One hundred percent of the order value (minus the normal card fee) goes straight to the florist. We take no commission at all.

Powered By Florist Window

Every florist on We Are Florists has their own Florist Window website and pays a fixed monthly software rental fee for that site. That is how the platform is funded, not by taking a share of customer orders.

For florists it is an extra stream of genuine local orders on top of their own site, phone and walk in trade. For customers it is a safety net that helps you find and support a real florist instead of an order gathering platform or supermarket brand.

UK Wide, Still Truly Local

We Are Florists offers nationwide coverage through real High Street florists where we have partners in place. Delivery is just £5 to covered areas, with every bouquet handmade using fresh stems chosen on the day.

If we do not yet have a florist for a specific postcode, we say so clearly. We do not send orders to relays, warehouses or boxed courier services. Instead, we continue to add new florists and expand coverage one community at a time.
