Rickey Heroman's acquired Marino's Florist on Oct 1, 2011. Marino's Florist has been in business since 1977, we are now offering that customer base better and more expanded coverage in the Baton Rouge area! Shop the freshest flowers in Baton Rouge that arrive direct from flowers growers around the world three times a week.
Our store in the Bocage Village Shopping Center Courtyard gave us the opportunity to expand in several related industry lines that I had long been interested in doing, such as a complete Bridal Registry department, home furnishings and accessories. Since the beginning we have sought to bring unique decorative lines to the Baton Rouge area. Our Bridal Registry includes Waterford, Lenox, Gorham, Reed and Barton, Towle Silver, Spode, Royal Worchester, Royal Daulton, Lynne Chase, Mottahedah, Vicki Carroll, Vietri, Onieda, International Silver, Fitz and Floyd, Arthur Court, Wilton Armetale, Beverly Clark, Oliver Weber jewelry, and much more. The Bocage courtyard also gave us the opportunity to expand our fountains, outdoor and indoor pottery, lighting and accessory displays to give our customers that "one stop shopping for all you indoor and outdoor garden and needs."
It didn't take long for our concept to catch on! We outgrew our space at Bocage Villiage and relocated to our present store right across the street in Towne Centre in September 2005. Our massive showroom gave me the opportunity to offer a larger variety of furniture, decorative accessories and gifts from around the world to satisfy our customer's every wish. We are located facing Jefferson Highway at the Lobdell intersection behind Whole Foods Market.
Of course, nothing surpasses the joy of being able to continue working with the beauty and elegance of God's creation of flowers and plants and using them to accent the beauty of individuals home furnishings and outdoor landscaping. I was fortunate to be able to add a florist business with a 44 years of family tradition to my Baton Rouge store by purchasing Edrie's Florist in Denham Springs, La. Along with the talented team of designers I have worked with for many years, we added several more years of design staff experience to give us over 150 total years of professional design experience.
Our staff is proud of their work in making our clients Dreams become a Reality everyday in from the smallest flower arrangement to the largest parties and weddings. Our plan is to continue the growth and expansion of all aspects of Rickey Heroman's in all areas of operation.
Our motto continues to be, No job is too small or too large, and 100% Guarantee. Our team of Experts is ready to meet any challenge and express your feelings through our work.
