Karin’s Florist, a cornerstone of the Vienna community, is gearing up for a bustling Valentine’s Day season, continuing a 67-year tradition of providing exquisite floral arrangements for every occasion. Maris Angolia, President of Karin’s Florist, who joined the business with her father in the mid-1990s, brings a wealth of experience and a steady hand in guiding the local shop through multiple generations.
As Valentine’s Day approaches, Karin’s Florist focuses on the importance of a talented and dedicated staff. Preparation for the holiday includes meticulous scheduling of design and delivery personnel, careful selection of flowers, and a detailed photo shoot to showcase the Valentine’s Day collection on the website six weeks in advance.
Angolia emphasizes that Karin’s Florist stands out from the competition because of its talented staff and the products it provides. She recognizes the team’s hard work and commitment to customer satisfaction, especially during busy seasons like Valentine’s Day, Christmas, and Mother’s Day.
Since its inception in 1956, Karin’s Florist has become an integral part of the community, celebrating life’s milestones with beautiful floral creations. Angolia cherishes the relationships built with customers over the years, noting that many current patrons visited the store as children and now bring their own families to select flowers.
Karin’s Florist offers a diverse array of flowers and gifts, sourced from around the globe. From Dutch tulips to Argentinian ceramics, the shop prides itself on offering unique and distinctive items. Angolia is always looking for ways to expand the shop’s offerings, and wants customers to discover that special something, from plants and home goods to flowers.
Karin’s commitment to excellence has earned national recognition, including being named one of the U.S. Chamber CO—100: America’s Top 100 Small Businesses in 2024 and earning the title of “Best Florist in America.”
