Ultimately, this is up to you! When purchasing your subscription, you’ll select the first delivery date, which will determine all future delivery dates as well.
A few things to keep in mind:
In most cases, delivery is available Tuesday through Friday each week, with Saturday delivery available in certain postal jurisdictions. You’ll need to enter your recipient’s address into our site’s subscription page to check for Saturday delivery availability.
Delivery dates are determined by the day of the week (Monday through Saturday), not by numerical dates, e.g. September 1st. This is because our shipping partners do not deliver perishable goods on Mondays or Sundays. If we base ship dates on the numerical day of the month, the delivery date would sometimes fall on days when delivery is not possible. In short, if you order a monthly delivery with its first delivery date falling on a Tuesday, your next delivery will arrive on Tuesday four weeks later.
Delivery method will vary depending on the recipient’s address and the bouquet that we send. Some of our bouquets are only available from specific fulfillment centers or directly from our farms. This means that even if your recipient is in our Hand Delivery Zones (in NYC, DC, or LA), they may still receive their subscription delivery via our Nationwide Delivery partners.

Re-schedule lets you choose a specific date for the next delivery.
