The Sessile Formula: A Unique Equation That Benefits Everyone
Order your flowers from a local florist
Sit-in for florists' independence
Sessile helps a collective of 500 artisan florists improve their online visibility and increase their orders, while giving them the freedom to create floral arrangements that reflect their own style, without having to rely on pre-set catalogs. This allows them to unleash their creativity by using seasonal flowers and locally sourced blooms whenever possible.
Our mission
Transforming and relocating the industry together
Since 2019, Sessile has been committed to transforming the cut-flower industry, supporting local florists, and preserving the expertise of independent artisan florists. To highlight those who are making a difference, we created “Le Plaidoyer”: a space for reflection and sharing led by Louis, one of Sessile’s founders. Articles, testimonials, events… "Le Plaidoyer" brings together all our initiatives aimed at bringing different stakeholders together and working collectively to envision an industry ready to meet the challenges it faces.
Our first project is called Floribalyse: carried out in partnership with Ademe and Astredhor, it will enable us to calculate the environmental impact of flowers produced in France and find ways to optimize production processes!

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 see which florists in the network deliver to that area. Next, choose your florist, then your bouquet, which you can customize: occasion, dominant flower color, message to include… Sessile lets you send unique, custom-made bouquets. Once your order is finalized, your florist will carefully prepare your floral arrangement and deliver it in person to the recipient on the specified date and time slot.
How soon can I have flowers delivered through your website?
On Sessile.fr, you order your flowers directly from a local florist. As a result, there’s no standard delivery time: it all depends on the florist you choose and the city where your bouquet will be delivered. Generally speaking, however, same-day delivery is possible. Florists that offer this service are marked with the label“Express delivery available!”. By entering the shipping address above, you can also easily filter florists based on the date you want your flowers 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 is essential for birthdays, Valentine’s Day, weddings, or—unfortunately, at times— funerals. As for delivery times, each Sessile.fr florist offers delivery slots based on their availability. You can view the available time slots, day by day, directly on your favorite florist’s online store. When placing your order, we’ll ask you to specify your preferred time slots for that day. You can then select a specific time, but it’s best to choose a time range, as this gives the florist more flexibility to ensure a successful in-person delivery.
Is it possible to buy flowers online and have them delivered the same day?
Sessile.fr lets you buy a bouquet of flowers from a local florist in just a few clicks. As a result, delivery times depend on the availability of the shop 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 shop can deliver your flowers today, you’ll most likely find an option for next-day delivery.
Do you offer flower delivery on Sundays and holidays?
Yes, provided that the florist from whom you order your bouquet is open and offers home delivery on that day. Many of our florists are open and deliver flowers on Sundays, and some even operate 7 days a week. On Mother’s Day and Grandmother’s Day, which fall on a Sunday every year, the chances are even better: nearly all Sessile.fr florists allow you to send flowers to your mom and grandma on those days. For holidays, it’s pretty much the same: it all depends on the florist and their schedule, with often greater availability on high-demand dates, such as May 1st or All Saints’ Day.
Can I order flowers on Sessile.fr and have them delivered as a surprise?
Of course! Just enter the recipient’s address, choose a delivery date and time slot, and you’re all set. When finalizing your order, you can add “additional information”: this is the perfect place to note that it’s a surprise, provide a door code, a delivery instruction, or any other useful details. You’ll also be asked for the recipient’s phone number so the florist can contact them. Don’t worry: they’ll only use it if necessary, such as if no one is present at the specified address at the time of delivery.
Can my bouquet be delivered somewhere other than my home, such as to my office?
Absolutely! As long as you provide a specific address, your florist can deliver your bouquet to a location other than your home or a loved one’s home. To an office, ahospital, a hotel, or even a cemetery: you choose where your flowers will be delivered. To ensure a smooth delivery, be sure to provide as many details as possible in the “additional information” field (floor, department, room number, access, etc.), and make sure to include the requested phone numbers.
I'd like to pick up my bouquet directly from the florist. Is that okay?
Yes, and to be honest, this is an option that many of you prefer. All Sessile.fr florists offer click & collect. Picking up your bouquet in-store couldn’t be easier: simply select the “pick up in-store” option when finalizing your online order. Good news: with click & collect, delivery fees are waived, allowing youto buy flowers at a lower cost. It’s also the perfect opportunity to meet your local florist.
