Please do not order from this company. I made an online order for 170 leis and chose from the website the delivery date from THEIR choice of dates they could deliver. They took my $2394 and then later that evening , some very fast talking, hardly understandable person called me to tell me that they could not deliver on the date I needed them. He gave me a choice of one day earlier or one day later which neither worked for our event. I asked to cancel the order and instead of refunding my full order they charged me $239 penalty for CANCELLING AN ORDER THEY COULD NOT FULFILL. PLEASE stay away from them --- as far as you can get. I will be working with my credit card company to get a refund. read more

Would mark zero if I could. This company is apparently same company as Shaka Lei. When you order from Shaka Lei it comes in this company's box - feels scammy. The lei they sent was terrible, wilting, petals falling off, and molding in the middles and was tied with an ugly plastic ribbon, I've never seen that on a lei. Zero customer service or responsibility. Only excuses. read more

I would never buy from this place again. I ordered two graduation leis, and when they came in, some parts were in pieces, torn apart! Whoever I spoke to told me that I would need to deal it with FedEx, cause it is a FedEx issue. So apparently it is my responsibility to file a claim against FedEx. The flowers were brittle and dried!! Not even like the ones they advertised! I even did a two day expedite shipping. And it wasn't cheap for the flowers or cost of delivery. I'm very highly disappointed as my son is graduating the next day! read more

Service was excellent and could not have been better. There is a wide selection to choose from and the value was well worth it. I had a graduation haku and two orchid leis shipped to the Midwest and it was packed well. I'll definitely order from this company again. read more

While searching the internet for an extra special Lei, other than the beautiful purple flowers for my son's graduation, who completed his Master's in Engineering, I came across this beautiful Maile Style Ti Leaf Lei + Orchid Lei Wrap and Kukui Nut Lei. They shipped overnight from Hawaii to California. It maintained its freshness for 4 days while in the fridge. I was so impressed with the quality and shipping service that I've now placed another order for my Godson's High School Graduation coming up in a couple of days. Posted is a picture of my son with his leis. Granted, my son received so many hugs while wearing his leis before we took this picture. Mahalo nui loa Buy Hawaiian Lei for your beautiful leis and professional services. read more

My package was delayed by 5 days and arrived completely destroyed and they're refusing to refund me and hiding behind their Terms of Service. They said they would take up the issue with FedEx and it was up to FedEx to determine if I would get a refund within 4-6 weeks. I requested again a refund as my relationship was with the shop and not with FedEx to which they declined. I ended up having to file a chargeback to receive a refund, which my Credit Card company ruled very quickly in my favor. Following that, the company emailed me telling me I should reconsider this review. Ultimately I am going to leave this up as people should be aware that if you pay for overnight shipping and receive a damaged product upon arrival the Buy Hawaiian Lei will not stand behind their product/service/selected vendors. read more

This is the second time I've ordered leis from this florist to ship to Cali. The owner called me to let me know that their order of flowers from whichever country was destroyed. He was very apologetic. I ordered the double blue orchid lei, but the Govt in whatever country destroyed their flowers. He was able to send me a white double orchid instead, along with a single blue orchid lei, and my purple butterfly lei. It was shipped overnight. It arrived just fine. read more

We purchased a bulk order of purple orchid lei's late Wednesday afternoon and they arrived the following Friday (less than 48 hours later). I was super impressed with the customer service, packaging and most of all by the freshness and beauty of the lei's. My daughter and her friends loved their traditional Hawaiian lei's for graduation. Mahalo Buy Hawaiian Lei, we will definitely be back. read more

I recently got married on the Mainland and wanted to add something special on our day. These Lei's were it. Beautiful, fresh and perfect for the occasion. Customer Service was wonderful from beginning of purchase through the end. Highly recommend and will be giving my business to them again. Mahalo! read more

When I realized (or maybe accepted) that my plans for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary had to change, I knew that the thing that would bring them the most joy would be memories and reminders of many, many trips to Hawai'i. I reached out to Buy Hawaiian Lei to request some aloha for my parents, and was blown away by their service. They are super communicative, and truly hospitable. They went above and beyond to get my parents' leis to them, including expediting the shipping, and sending a handwritten card. Mahalo, from the bottom of my heart. It's been a tough year for all of us, and this is the rainbow at the end of the storm. I'll send a follow up pic once my parents get their leis! read more

I ordered a lei and they called me at 10 pm the next day saying they did not have what I ordered. I asked for a substitution and they didn't have anything similar. I asked to cancel my order and they said they would be charging me a 10% cancellation fee to cover their credit card processing fee, which is much lower than 10%. I can understand if I canceled because I changed my mind but I don't agree with paying a fee when they are the ones who cannot fill my order. Bad business! read more

Would give 10 stars if we could. This is a long overdue review for 3 orders placed in the last 8 months, shipped to Los Angeles. The first time was for my father-in-law's birthday. The second (sadly) for his funeral and the third for two graduations. We ordered their standard leis, their specialty leis and bulk packs of their orchid leis for the funeral. Each order shipped (and arrived) extremely fast (the first and second orders within 24-48hrs). There's no florist in California, that we've found, who can turn out leis like these at the right quality. Shipping is worth it and the leis arrived overnight, FRESH and packed perfectly, not a single bruise on the tuberose. We chilled everything and they lasted 2 more days until the funeral. Call them if you need a fast turnaround or have questions. If they don't pick up, they may be in the warehouse. Dan called us personally and talked us through alternatives if a type of lei wasn't available. He couldn't have been nicer, quicker, more kind or professional. The funeral situation was very tough and we wanted the leis to be just right for our relatives coming in from Hawaii. My in-law's owned one of the original lei stands in Hawaii, so the review comes from a place of admiration and knowledge of how much work it takes to get these right. We really appreciate how gorgeous they turned out and the care along the way. read more

It's rare that I submit reviews, but Buy Hawaiian Lei was outstanding. I wanted to send a Lei to my friend in Brooklyn, NY...they called me from the flower farm to suggest a different flower - that's how fresh their leis are! It was super fresh and on time to Brooklyn- even when I ordered it on a weekend. read more

I ordered 30 bulk lei for a birthday party in Michigan. When I had a question about my order through email, I received a call from the company within a few hours with the answer. The leis arrived right on time and were easy to store in the fridge. They were in perfect condition for the party two days later. We actually had two left over in the fridge, we went on vacation for a week and even lost power for two days. When we came back, the leis were still in good condition (last picture). Amazing! I would definitely order from this company in the future without hesitation! read more

It's graduation time and I'm ready to order some leis. Unfortunately I didn't save the number for Buy Hawaiian Lei in my congrats. I was searching for the phone number on Yelp and noticed my review was removed. Good thing I have it stored in my notes! Thanks again guys! I'll be calling in to make my order for graduation. I just recently found out my cousin just got engaged & I wanted to send her something special to say "congratulations" since I can't just drive & pick her up to take her out to celebrate. So I started searching online for ideas & I came across www.buyhawaiianlei.com & I knew right away what I wanted to send her. Being that my cousin is originally from Hawaii I thought why not send her a hake lei. I liked the ones they had online but I wanted to add a few more personal touches to make it really special for my cousin. So I sent an email & shortly after Kai contacted me. I told him what I wanted & he was very helpful & accommodating. We exchanged a few more emails & phone calls after that & in the end came up with the perfect haku for my cousin. I couldn't have been happier with the whole process. Not only was it such an easy process but Kai was so nice to work with I didn't feel like just a "customer" to him. I truly felt he cared about me & wanted to make this gift special for my cousin as much as I did. Thank you Kai for all your help & great customer service! My cousin loved her haku. She wore it to work & got so many compliments! Also thanks to your beautiful haku, her & her fiancé are now considering having their wedding here :) They were so beautifully done I'm thinking about ordering from them again during graduation time & for friends birthdays! read more

I had ordered leis for my spouse's memorial and was contacted by Dan (owner) about the process (shipping to LA) and when to expect the delivery through FedEx. Unfortunately FedEx was unable to complete the delivery as stated and the leis were not delivered until 2 days after the memorial. Throughout this period Dan was in contact with me expressing his disappointment that the leis were not delivered on time and I told him that the leis had perished by the time they were delivered. He (Dan) went above and beyond in helping to file a claim for me and negotiating with FedEx after the initial claim was denied. His actions would lead to a full refund with his company paying out the difference. I cannot thank Dan and his company enough for all the Aloha and effort in resolving this matter. I would wholeheartedly order leis from them again as the customer care and service is world class. Mahalo so much again for your help during a difficult situation and I look forward to being able to do business with such a great company in the future. Aloha. read more

A childhood friend past away, and I was asked to do her lei and haku lei for her to wear in her casket during the funeral service. It was an honor for me to do her farewell lei and haku. I'm from California and I called these good folks and spoke with Dan. He was very helpful in assisting me to pick out a nice full haku with a lei to match. I decided on the purple haku with the babies breath and fern. I was happy that they took my order because it was the week of the funeral; literally less than 72 hours before the service was to start. I paid for the overnight delivery. When the shipment arrived; it was only the lei with no haku. I emailed and Dan immediately called me back. He apologized and explained to me that the haku maker misunderstood the directions. You see, I ordered a total of 3 haiku's; two I was going to tie together and lei her with it and the 3rd one I would place around her head. The Haku maker accidentally linked all 3 of the haku's together to make one long lei. Dan immediately took care of the problem by calling in the haku maker to make another haku for me and he overnighted the haku to me all at the company's expense. He could've easily just apologized and refunded my money; but instead he choose to do his best to make it right by picking up the expense of their error. I was able to pick the haku up at the Fedex hub first thing in the morning in order to make it to the funeral onetime. It all worked out perfectly. This is "Excellent", "Superb" and "Mindful" costumer service. I highly recommend this company for all your Lei and floral needs. They are ethical, kind and considerate. Dan was right; the Haku that I picked was very full and lovely. The service was this morning. Thank you "Buy Hawaiian Lei" for taking care of me like family and doing your very best to own, fix your error. Much Aloha and Alofas to you all. ~Myra of California read more

The Ohana at Buy Hawaiian Lei does a stellar job with professionally shipping leis to the mainland. They included a cooling bag, foil insulated box and a kind note for well wishes on my graduation. The box came early and the shipping costs was about $15 less than their competitors. Besides the savings, they have some of the more exotic leis I've grown accustom to when I lived on the island like the Christina lei which is amazingly beautiful. If you have a question, a friendly local will answer the phone with no runaround. read more

While planning a high school graduation party for our Seniors in Vancouver, WA we reached out to Buy Hawaiian Lei to place a bulk order for parents to pre-order then pick up as they entered graduation ceremonies. Supply chain issues led to an unusual delay which Daniel quickly overcame. Meanwhile we ordered a second overnight box just in case. Both boxes arrived in time and we easily sold out of the extras on site. Our parents and kids were thrilled with to carry forward this tradition for our graduates #ClassOf2021! read more
