Galbraith Florist

Galbraith Florist Fresh flowers, artistic designs and professional experience. Your go-to destination for exquisite flowers and thoughtful arrangements.

We specialize in enchanting wedding flowers, event florals, special life celebrations. Galbraith Florist has been offering the Saint John, New Brunswick area superior floral arrangements and assortments since 1961. Because we are a small, local shop, when you choose us, you can always expect to be treated more like a family member and less like "just another customer." Our deep-rooted passion for

flowers, along with our dedication to service, makes us the ideal choice for any occasion! Back in the 1960′s our flower shop was known as “Gordon’s Flowers”. In the 70′s the name was changed to “Galbraith Florist”, and between the 70′s and 1999 it was owned by two other people and moved several times. In September 2018, I (Oksana Posatska) purchased the shop. The shop is still learning and growing everyday, so that our customers can continue to receive the best possible service and pricing! As a reflection of our dedicated excellence, Galbraith Florist has been recognized for multiple awards and honors…

*2007 Entrepreneurial Achievement Award
*2nd Place in the 2009 Commercial Florist Competition

For Brittany 🤍✨

A bridal bouquet filled with texture, movement, and the dreamiest white blooms for a truly beautiful bride.

We can’t wait to share more of this beautiful celebration with you soon!

We’ve been a little quiet on social media lately, but the flower shop has been anything but quiet.
Behind the scenes, we’ve been preparing for a busy EPIC wedding season, filling the cooler with extraordinary blooms, and getting everything ready for prom season and so much more is happening everyday! Thank you SO MUCH for keeping us so wonderfully busy 🫶

If you’re planning on ordering prom flowers, don’t wait! ordering will be closing very soon!

This week, we’re especially excited because we’ve managed to get our hands on an absolutely breathtaking new variety of Campanula. Rare, unique, and unlike anything we’ve seen before, we’re thrilled to be among the first florists to offer it.

Trust me when I say the photos don’t do it justice.

These beauties are available this weekend, and we invite you to stop by and take a few stems home. It’s worth the trip.

The abundance of unique blooms arriving at the shop lately has our heads spinning in the very best way, and we can’t wait to share them with you.

And while we’re here, thank you. Thank you for following along, cheering us on, supporting local, and being part of our journey, whether we’re posting every day or busy creating behind the scenes. Your support means the world to our small team.

See you this weekend! 💚✨

We honestly don’t even know where to begin 🤍

This Mother’s Day was bigger, busier, and more emotional than we ever expected, and we are sitting here feeling so incredibly grateful for all of you.

To everyone who ordered flowers, trusted us with such meaningful moments, recommended us to friends and family, waited patiently during the rush, shared kind words, or simply supported our small business in any way… thank you. Truly.

This week was filled with very early mornings, very late nights, messy floors covered in stems and petals, nonstop designing, problem solving, running around, and trying our absolute best to make every bouquet feel special. It was exhausting in every possible way… but also so beautiful.

Seeing how many people wanted to celebrate the women they love through flowers reminded us why we do this in the first place 🌸 Behind every bouquet was a story, a memory, a thank you, an “I love you,” or a reminder to someone that they matter.

And being trusted with that is something we never take lightly 🤍

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making this Mother’s Day so unforgettable for us❤️
And to every mom, grandmother, mother figure, and woman who gives so much of herself every day… we hope you felt loved this weekend ✨

New design from our Mother’s Day Collection 2026 🌸

This arrangement is pure energy—hot pink and hot orange coming together in a way that feels fearless, vibrant, and unapologetically alive. It’s bold color at its best: playful yet powerful, soft petals with a loud presence.

She Ignites was designed to capture that moment when emotion turns into expression—when love, gratitude, and strength don’t whisper, they shine. It’s not meant to blend in. It’s meant to be felt.

A celebration of the women who bring colour, fire, and life into every space they enter.

Place your order today before we reach capacity.

We don’t always find the right words for her.

So we let the flowers speak instead.

A small collection of gratitude, love, and memories — for the one who has always been there.

Happy Mother’s Day.

📣Important📣 Please read ⬇️

Mother’s Day week isn’t just pretty flowers and timely deliveries that is expected from us💐

It’s a carefully orchestrated plan behind the scenes.
We go into this week fully aware of what’s ahead- long hours, hundreds of phone calls, and thousands of stems arriving, being processed, nurtured, and prepped for their best moment. Every florist on our team moves with intention so each arrangement gets the attention it deserves.
We build systems and collections to keep everything flowing smoothly. But what makes this week challenging is when things don’t go according to plan - like last-minute shortages from wholesalers and growers or orders placed outside of our Mother’s Day Collection.

That’s when things can quickly become hectic.
🙏🙏🙏
So we’re asking for your help, so we can serve you in the best way we know how 🤍
🙏🙏🙏
If you’re ordering for Mother’s Day weekend, please choose directly from our Mother’s Day Collection. We’ve created 30+ designs across a range of price points, all based on the flowers we’ve carefully sourced for this week.
When orders come from outside the collection, we can’t guarantee bloom availability or the final result, and it adds pressure during an already very full schedule.

This system is in place for a reason: to keep everything organized, efficient, and beautiful, so your loved ones receive the freshest, most thoughtful designs, right on time.
Thank you for trusting us, supporting us, and working with us during our busiest (and most meaningful) week of the year 💕

Lavender Haze.

The opening expression of our Mother’s Day 2026 Collection.

A design inspired by softness and stillness — where muted lavender tones, seasonal blooms, and airy textures come together in a composition that feels light, romantic, and quietly nostalgic.

This piece is less about structure and more about atmosphere — the way beauty changes a space without asking for attention.

Created with intention. Designed to be felt.

Mother’s Day pre-orders are now open.
