Allan Woods was fantastic to work with. I had a tiny wedding and called him a few weeks before to put in an order for a bouquet, a couple of corsages, and boutonnières. He helped me pick out a design, which I actually changed a day or two later and he had no problem with me doing that! The bouquet I ended up with was perfect and the flowers were of very high quality. I’m so glad I chose Allan Woods and my husband goes back to him now to buy me bouquets. More...

I worked with Allan Woods for the flowers for my small, 15-person wedding, and I'm so happy I did! I live across the country in California but used to live a block away from Allan Woods, so when I planned my Washington, DC wedding  I knew they were the right pick. They worked with me over email and phone to arrange a bouquet, boutonniere, flowers for the cake and for my hair, and everything turned out perfectly! I told them I wanted fall colors that would match with the seasonal colors of the park where we were getting married and my husband's suit - and they 100% delivered. I am so happy with how the flowers turned out for our wedding - they look absolutely fantastic in our photos, I couldn't have asked for anything better! Thank you Allan Woods! More...

They were helpful in delivering flowers for a family member.  They called to verify hospital delivery and when they could not, they made sure the delivery was made to their house even though they did not deliver in that area.  Great customer service!  Would use them again!! More...

I ordered flowers from Allan Woods for a friend, who reported that the arrangement was "exquisite" and the loveliest arrangement he'd ever received. The recipient also said he'd never order flowers from anywhere else in the future. Many thanks to Jack for great customer service and to the people who created and delivered the beautiful arrangement! More...

The team at Allan Woods helped make my wedding absolutely perfect! Jack in particular helped create a gorgeous floral suite for us that was reasonably priced and visually striking. From our rehearsal dinner flowers to an absolutely stunning bouquet to giant buckets of forsythia (which brought spring indoors on a rainy cold D.C. day), I cannot say enough positive things about this florist!Flowers are particularly important to me because I come from a family of florists and everyone adored the flowers. The orchids in my bouquet were particularly arresting, I have never seen ones so large, beautifully colored, and perfectly arranged.I know we will continue to use Allan Woods for future celebrations and are so happy we used them to mark the start of our married life. A true gem in D.C. More...

I just wanted to say thank you to Allan Woods for their help with a last minute order this weekend! My grandma has been in and out of the hospital for the past few months and in all the chaos I forgot to order her anniversary bouquet that she's come to look forward to every year. This was not the year to miss this special occasion. I had called a few other places in the area, but Allan Woods was the only one with everything I needed in stock (white calla Lillies and yellow roses). They were able to put the arrangement together and deliver it to Hyattsville and were so kind over the phone. Even better, my grandma said it was the most beautiful bouquet she had received and that the roses were the size of saucers! Thank you Allan Woods for your excellent service and for making my grandma's day! More...

A wonderful experience from start to finish.  I was attending a surprise congratulatory party for a friend nearby, so stopped here to pick up a bouquet.  I gave them a moderate price range, and got a spectacular bouquet that was a huge hit!  Everyone was lovely and professional, and they had a great selection of items to boot.  Definitely going back!

Allan's work is excellent. Twice I've called, given a brief description of the occasion, given a brief description of the recipient, given a light suggestion as to flowers and colors. ..and both times, his suggestions were totally appropriate. I handed over complete design control to him...asked him how much he would need to make it real nice..and VOILA...he delivered exquisite arrangements. I'm an interior designer and my clients expect nothing less than perfection. Allan and his team know their way around a floral arrangement. More...

This is a beautiful one of a kind florist. came in here last night to order something for a friend and my husband found the most gorgeous peonies which are so hard to find. They take their time and wrap the flowers in brown paper for you and make the presentation look wonderful. So glad I stumbled along this place. So lovely. Will definitely be back. More...

Recently used Allan Woods Flowers for a formal corporate event. Could not be happier. Allan is extremely talented, kind, responsive, and accommodating. The flowers were BEAUTIFUL. He had no problem at all with last minute changes and on the day of the event he slipped in and out like a flower ninja - right on time, put out all of the flowers in their appropriate homes in an amazingly efficient manner, and slipped out again within 30 minutes. Wherever possible I will use Allan Woods Flowers for all of my floral needs - personal or professional. More...

Working with Allan is a treat. He's so lovely and professional and clearly loves what he does. Working with him didn't feel like work.

If you hire him, give him your general preference and then let him do the rest! He knows what he's doing and isn't our to nickel and dime you. You'd be crazy not to hire him.

I can't wait to visit Allan's beautiful store soon.

If the kindness of Dan (who took my order) is any measure of the quality of the arrangement, I am certain I am in good hands.  The flowers I ordered have not yet been seen but I feel confident.  Dan listened carefully to my comments and preferences.  Sending flowers from a place of grief is terribly terribly difficult yet Dan was most understanding, attempting to read the tea leaves of my babbling.I have now heard reports of the flower arrangement.  It was very well-received, delivered in perfect time and was reported to be gorgeous.  I would definitely use Allan Woods Flowers again.

I live in California and found these guys through Yelp.  Wanted to send a bouquet to a local DC friend.  Called and spoke to Lorin on the phone.  So helpful.  She made some suggestions about bouquets, but I didn't like how the standard ones sounded for this particular friend.  So I described my friend's style and Lorin put together the perfect arrangement.  And my friend LOVED the flowers.  They delivered the flowers the same day.  Cost about $100 for the arrangement plus $15 for delivery.  I thought the price was good for this type of outstanding service and product.

I've only seen this beautiful website, but called this florist to send flowers to a funeral in DC (I'm from out of town). The funeral was out of the florist's delivery area, however, I was so impressed by the thoughtful personal service I received via phone . The florist referred me to a local florist closer to the funeral, and went to the trouble of looking up the number. If their floral arrangements are anything like their customer service, Allan Woods flowers must be  exceptional. More...

Fabulous florist--probably the best in the city (yeah, I said it).  On a rush, and I mean RUSH, to get to my mom's birthday shindig, I dropped in on Allan Woods.  It's about a half block away from my office, looked MEGA expensive from the outside, but as someone who ADORES flowers, I couldn't resist going in (especially since I had a good reason).Now, I'm gonna say this--the only "not cool" thing about this place is that it has an "air" of pretense about it.  Its sorta like the people there have to warm up to you? I couldn't tell if this was because they were really busy in the back cutting flowers and preparing arrangements for what seemed to be really BIG orders so there's no one there to greet you when you come in, or if the space is so empty and wide and open and full of gorgeous exotic flowers, and you just sorta FEEL that way.  But--I'm someone who rarely gets affected by stuff like that...I will await human interaction before I decide if a place is pretentious...Okay, so after making my way to the back, I was met with one smile and a couple inquisitive looks.  I saw this gorgeous golden retriever laid out on the floor relaxing...first to greet (such a sweet dog)...I actually think he may be the host :-).  Anyway, after I was cleared by the dog, I got a "hello. how are you? what can we do for you?"I mentioned that I worked down the street, had always walked by and wanted to come in...the flowers were gorgeous and I finally had a reason to come and buy some.  Asked if someone would help me to arrange some flowers for my mom's birthday and they were all for it.The guy who helped me was very eager to walk me around...he was knowledgeable AND funny...very disarming...and you could tell he loves what he does...I told him i wanted something small, beautiful and fragrant--and something that would last a couple hours outside of water, as we were meeting at a restaurant...i also love hydrangeas and peonies--so he grabbed those first...then some roses. I also told him my budget was 50 dollars. They DO take budgets into consideration here--and that is refreshing. And I was MOT impressed with the arrangement that he put together as it looked like it cost WELL BEYOND $50.  It was really the most well arranged flowers I have ever purchased (and trust me, I adore flowers and go through the motions to get the 'perfect arrangement').  The flowers were absolutely stunning bundled up and I happily purchased them. He even cut an extra one, hand it to me and said "for your hair." :-)My mom was absolutely blown away by the arrangement, as well. And it was so nice to have their fragrance wafting over the table at the lounge during dinner--everyone commented on how wonderful they were.  Was glad to have a few of their business cards on me, as I was asked for them.  And my mom just flat out advised that they should be the florists who do my wedding bouquet (something I've already considered--as they really are great at what they do.)Definitely a keeper florist. Great people...cute dog...gorgeous and fresh flowers...all the time. I give them 4 stars only because--again--the 'air'...I think they could be a little quicker to greet when you come in...so you could feel a little less like you're imposing. BUT, if you stay about 15 seconds longer, you'll find that they are really great people...they just tend to be very focused on producing those 'kick ass' arrangements. :-) More...
