What Their Customers Say
Excellent service and beautiful flowers. I live overseas and was looking for flowers to be delivered to my mother in law in Bedford. I found Harpur Florist online and placed an order for delivery the next day. I instantly got an email confirming the order, followed by another one with all the details. The following day I was notified that the flowers were on the way and then finally an email with a photo of the flowers at the delivery site. I will never use another florist again. My mother in law loved the flowers. They were beautiful. Job well done!
Great selection of products of flowers on the website, easy to order on line, excellent communication regarding delivery and a really impressive bouquet when it arrived. Fantastic service from start to finish and would definitely recommend.
Absolutely fabulous service from this florists in Bedford. I ordered this morning and they were delivered so quickly, took a picture to show me and kept me updated. What an amazing service. I ve bought from them before and flowers are always beautiful but first time used as delivery will defo use again. Thank you so much for such a quick service
I've used Harpur Centre Florist many times in the last few years and they've always brought a smile to my elderly mother's face when they deliver her flowers on special occasions. Always lovely blooms, always delivered on time. The new confirmation photos are a fantastic as well. Will use again. Many thanks.
