Can you deliver anniversary flowers to a Charleston hotel?
+
Yes, and the front desk is the right destination at all of them. The Charleston Marriott Town Center on Lee Street East and the Embassy Suites at 300 Court Street handle the bulk of it; the Four Points by Sheraton, the Courtyard by Marriott Charleston Downtown and, over in 25309, the Hampton Inn and Suites at Southridge take the remainder. Leave the reservation surname and the expected check-in hour on the order. The desk holds the arrangement or places it in the room according to house policy - what does not work is a driver idling under a porte-cochere waiting for a couple who are still an hour out on I-64.
Should I send anniversary flowers to a restaurant in Charleston?
+
Usually not, and this is a practical answer rather than a policy one. Charleston's anniversary reservations concentrate on Capitol Street, including Pies and Pints, at The Chop House a short walk away, and at Bluegrass Kitchen on Elizabeth Street in the East End - all small rooms with small host stands where an arrangement arriving mid-service is a real nuisance for the staff and usually ends up behind the bar. The version that works is flowers at the house in the afternoon, so the couple leaves for dinner with them already on the table. If the evening includes the Clay Center or the Coliseum and Convention Center, the same applies.

Which Charleston neighborhoods get the most anniversary deliveries?
+
The long-settled ones. The East End in 25301 and 25311, where restored Victorian and turn-of-the-century houses on Virginia Street East and Quarrier Street hold a lot of long-married couples. Kanawha City in 25304, the flat grid off MacCorkle Avenue SE. The shelves of South Hills in 25314 above Bridge Road, with Edgewood alongside. Washington Street West and the blocks beside it, which one of the three studios works out of. Outside the city, South Charleston, Dunbar, St. Albans, Nitro, Cross Lanes, Sissonville, Hurricane, Teays Valley and Winfield all sit comfortably inside the 60-mile ring.
What works for a 50th anniversary open house or reception?
+
Milestone anniversaries are more common in the Kanawha Valley than in most markets this size, because households here stay put for decades. The usual settings are a church fellowship hall open house, a reception at one of the older private clubs at Edgewood or Berry Hills, or a family dinner at home. All three want an arrangement that arrives in the morning and still looks right eight hours later, which means a firmer build rather than a delicate one - tell us it is a milestone and the studio will design for the length of the day. Multiple table pieces are quoted directly by the studio.
How far outside Charleston does the anniversary ring reach?
+
Sixty miles. The radius was set that wide on purpose, because this is a thin florist market and a tighter one would leave most of the region with nobody to deliver at all. Inside it: downriver through South Charleston, Dunbar, Institute, Nitro and St. Albans and on to Hurricane, Teays Valley, Winfield, Poca, Eleanor and Buffalo; north through Cross Lanes, Sissonville, Elkview and Clendenin toward Ripley and Spencer; upriver through Marmet, Belle, Chesapeake and Cedar Grove; south to Madison and Danville; and east through Montgomery and Smithers to Summersville, Fayetteville and Oak Hill - where the New River Gorge lodging at the ring's outer edge is a standing Charleston anniversary-weekend destination. Outer addresses want a morning order.
