Even when you can't be there, life still goes on. Though our showroom will continue to be closed through May 15th per requirements of the Mayor of Indianapolis and Governor of Indiana; we are still available online at gillespieflorists.com and on the phone (317.273.1100) for all your floral needs.

To keep our staff and customers safe, we will be continuing to offer No-Contact delivery as well as Curbside Pickup at our store so that we may continue to be there for you and your loved ones when you need us. For No-Contact Delivery, with your permission, Gillespie Florists can connect with the recipient ahead of delivery to establish their preferences for receiving your gift.  This connection can be through text, email and/or phone. Deliveries can be left at a predetermined location (like the front or back porch), if the recipient prefers not to have face to face contact with our drivers. For customers who prefer to pick up at our store, we’re offering curb-side service. Upon arrival, you can call us at our main number and someone will bring the order directly to you. No need to leave your vehicle!

Here is a short video of FAQ's with Sarah and Della. Have questions? You can call our store, message us on Facebook and Google and even send us a text!

 

From everyday occasions, special occasions like Mother's Day and to the most significant life events, we have been and will continue to be here for you.  #FlowersForLife

 Be safe, be well and as always...wash your hands!

Flowers Keep Us Connected

sarah_newbadgeDuring a time of recommended Social Distancing, your Gillespie Florists family wants you to know that we’re still here for you, when you need us. Our commitment to our community remains unwavering. We proudly serve our neighbors, friends and family with the same values we’ve had for decades: the highest quality product and service in the Indianapolis area. With a permanent staff of 27 people and 3 furry friends (Evie, Pearl and Sawyer), we thank you for your business now and always.

We know that social interaction is a precious commodity. Sometimes, it takes a major catastrophe to remind us how important human connection can be. Although we still welcome our customers in person at our store, we understand that not everyone is comfortable with physical interaction at this time. You can keep connected with us digitally through our social media accounts. Gillespie Florists is committed to keeping in touch and will produce additional opportunities to share Evie TV and FB Live posts so you can see what we’re up to from anywhere!

Gillespie Florists is committed to helping our friends and neighbors feel safe and comfortable. For any customers who wish to have delivery service, we are offering “No Personal Contact” delivery options. With your permission, Gillespie Florists can connect with the recipient ahead of delivery to establish their preferences for receiving your gift. This connection can be through text, email and/or phone. Deliveries can be left at a predetermined location (like the front or back porch), if the recipient prefers not to have face to face contact with our drivers. For customers who prefer to pick up at our store, we’re offering curb-side service. Upon arrival, you can call us and someone will bring your order to your vehicle.

We are open 7 days a week, 362 days a year (363 this year!) to take care of all your floral needs. Gillespie Florists has been serving the Indianapolis community since 1960 - for those of you counting, that’s 60 years and 4 generations of the Gillespie Family being a part of your life. From everyday occasions to the most significant life events, we have been and will continue to be here for you. #FlowersForLife

Be safe and well,

Patrick and Susan Gillespie (3rd Generation Owners)
Sarah Gillespie and Della (Gillespie) Mendenhall (4th Generation Operators)
And the entire Gillespie Florists Family
