Order your flowers from a local florist
Sessile for the independence of florists
Sessile enables a collective of 500 artisan florists to improve their online visibility and increase their orders, while giving them the freedom to offer floral arrangements that reflect their style, without imposing catalogs. They can then give free rein to their creativity by using seasonal flowers and locally sourced produce whenever possible.
Our mission
Transforming and relocating the industry together
Since 2019, Sessile has been committed to transforming the cut flower industry, safeguarding local businesses, and preserving the expertise of independent artisan florists. To promote those who are taking action, we have created the Advocacy section: a space for reflection and sharing led by Louis, one of the founders of Sessile. Articles, testimonials, events... Advocacy brings together all our initiatives to bring together the various players and work together to imagine an industry that is ready to take on the challenges it faces.
Our first project is called Floribalyse: conducted with Ademe and Astredhor, it will enable us to calculate the environmental impact of flowers produced in France and find solutions to optimize production routes!

Flower delivery with Sessile
How does flower delivery work on Sessile?
Ordering flowers on Sessile.fr couldn't be easier! Enter a delivery address to discover the florists in the collective who deliver to that location. Then choose your florist and your bouquet, which you can customize: occasion, predominant flower color, message to include, etc. Sessile allows you to offer unique, tailor-made bouquets. Once the order is finalized, your florist will carefully prepare your floral creation and then hand-deliver it to the recipient on the date and at the time slot indicated.
How soon can I have flowers delivered using your website?
On Sessile.fr, you order your flowers directly from a local florist. This means there is no single delivery time: it all depends on the florist you choose and the city where your bouquet will be delivered. However, delivery within 24 hours is generally possible. Florists who offer this service are marked with the words "Express delivery available!". By entering the shipping address above, you can also easily filter florists according to the date you want your flowers to be delivered.
Can I choose a specific date and time for the flowers to be delivered?
Of course! Being able to choose the delivery date for your bouquet of flowers is essential for birthdays, Valentine's Day, weddings, or, sadly, sometimes funerals. As for delivery times, each Sessile.fr florist offers delivery slots based on their availability. You can check the available slots, day by day, directly on your favorite florist's online store. When placing your order, we will ask you to indicate your availability for the slots available that day. You can specify a precise time, but ideally, it is best to give a time range, as this allows the florist more flexibility to ensure successful hand delivery.
Is it possible to buy flowers online and receive them the same day?
Sessile.fr allows you to purchase a bouquet of flowers from a local artisan florist in just a few clicks. As a result, delivery times depend on the availability of the store where you place your order. Most of our florists offer same-day delivery, sometimes even within a few hours. To check, simply enter a shipping address above, then filter the florists by delivery date. And if no store can deliver your flowers today, you will most likely find an option for next-day delivery.
Do you offer home delivery of bouquets on Sundays and public holidays?
Yes, provided that the florist you order your bouquet from is open and delivers to homes on that day. Many of our artisans are open and deliver your flowers on Sundays, some even seven days a week. On Mother's Day and Grandparents' Day, which fall on a Sunday each year, the chances are even greater: almost all Sessile.fr florists allow you to send flowers to your mom and grandma. For public holidays, it's more or less the same: it all depends on the florist and their opening hours, with more availability on high-demand dates such as May 1 or All Saints' Day.
Can you order flowers on Sessile.fr and have them delivered as a surprise?
Of course! Enter the address of the lucky recipient, choose a delivery date and time slot, and you're done. When finalizing your order, you can enter "additional information": this is the perfect place to specify that it's a surprise, provide a door code, instructions, or any other useful details. You will also be asked for the recipient's phone number so that the florist can contact them. Don't worry: they will only use it if necessary, for example if no one is present at the address provided at the time of delivery.
Can my bouquet of flowers be delivered somewhere other than my home, for example to my office?
Yes, again! As long as you provide us with a specific address, your florist can deliver your bouquet to a location other than your home or that of a loved one. At the office,hospital, hotel, or even the cemetery: you choose where your flowers will be delivered. To ensure that the delivery goes smoothly, be sure to provide as many details as possible in the "additional information" field (floor, department, room number, access, etc.) and to fill in the requested phone numbers.
I would like to pick up my bouquet directly from the florist. Is that possible?
Yes, and in fact, this is an option that many of you prefer. All Sessile.fr florists offer click & collect. To pick up your bouquet in store, nothing could be simpler: select the in-store pickup option when finalizing your online order. Good news: with click & collect, delivery is free, allowing youto buy flowers at a lower cost. It's also the perfect opportunity to meet your local artisan.
What if I prefer to buy my flowers from a florist near where I live?
Our website is designed to make it easy for you to buy flowers from a local florist directly online. But you can also use it to find a florist near you. Thanks to the Sessile.fr online store, you can check opening hours, read reviews, discover the florist's floral creations, admire their most beautiful designs... and of course find their address. This is particularly useful if you are looking for a florist that is open right now, during the day, or on a specific date (a Sunday or Monday, for example). And if you still prefer to buy in person, all you have to do is visit the shop.
