Scrim’s Florist

Had such an amazing experience with Scrims for our wedding flowers! The end result was so unique and fit perfectly with my vision. The staff went above and beyond and accommodated our needs with ease. Highly recommend.

On Halloween, my husband and I went in to Scrim’s Florist. As a last-​minute decision, we had decided to add corsages to add to our «Joker and Harley Quinn’s Prom» theme. We were greeted by a florist resplendent in purple wizard robes. While it was near closing (around 4 and they close at 5 on Saturdays), «The Wizard» was extremely helpful and quickly whisked us up into the corsage making business. He asked us what our costumes were and when we dropped the DC comic character names, he was drawing a blank (maybe he’s more of a Marvel fan ;)). We offered instead the colour themes we wanted and he helped us to find flowers that matched our theme perfectly. My husband was particularly excited as the flower chosen was a near match to that of the 1989’s Jack Nicholson’s Joker in Batman. The Wizard started to work and told us to come back and they would be ready shortly and so it was that about 45 minutes later we held in our hands two newly minted DC villain themed corsages. The service was fast, friendly, and the final product was beautiful. I will definitely be coming back for future flower needs!

If you need a florist, you need to come here. I originally stopped by for help with some plants that I inherited when I got a new office. I don’t know much about plants but I thought these plants looked sickly. I took some pictures and sought advice. I was very happy that the staff took the time to help me without trying to sell me anything.
I decided to go back a few weeks later to buy some flowers for my significant other and was happy with their service and selection. Their prices were also very reasonable.
Scrim’s also has a good selection of pots if you are looking to replant! I know that doesn’t seem like much but it’s nice to have options other than plastic or plain terra cotta. :)

By far the best place in Ottawa for the special gift or extra touch at home. Always unique and excellent customer service, can’t wait to go back!
