If you are a bride looking for a florist who is incredibly talented and genuinely a DREAM to work with - look no further than Bernie!! He was hands down my absolute favorite vendor throughout our entire wedding planning process, and I truly believe he played a huge part in making our wedding as beautiful as it was :) When I first started reaching out to florists, every other quote came in at the top of my budget before I had even made any adjustments. Bernie was different. He came in at a price that was not only fair, but gave me room to add more décor and even when my guest count increased and we added several more tables, the final cost was still incredibly reasonable. I booked Bernie almost a year out, and from day one he was responsive, thorough, and genuinely invested in understanding my vision. I asked him a million questions throughout the entire process and he never once made me feel like I was too much. He took my inspo photos and color palette and executed them perfectly! The week of the wedding, he even went out of his way to visit our reception venue to measure the sweetheart table so he could add drapery - that level of care and attention to detail says everything about who he is. On the wedding day, he arrived at our hotel early to deliver the florals to the bridal suite, and the reaction from my entire bridal party, my mom, and my mother-in-law said it all - everyone was in awe of how beautiful his florals were, and my bridal bouquet was absolute perfection and so were the personal florals! He also seamlessly repurposed the ceremony florals for the reception, decorated our wedding cake beautifully, and created centerpieces so stunning that guests were taking them home at the end of the night :) Bernie made the whole process seamless, joyful, and stress-free. He was truly one of the best investments we made for our entire wedding and I cannot recommend him highly enough - 1000% worth it! Thank you again for everything, Bernie!! :D read more

Bernie (the owner) is one of the kindest and most professional people you will meet. We first met Bernie at a wedding showcase and we were immediately blown away by his stunning floral arrangements and warm personality. He was always prepared, responded promptly, and had numerous examples of previous floral designs and options to choose from. He even designs a sample centerpiece so you will know exactly what you will get. He encouraged us to take home the centerpiece and think about any changes that we might want to make and was very flexible when we asked for floral changes. Rest assured that if you want any changes or need any suggestions, he will go out of his way to find the florals or a design that is perfect for your occasion and will definitely create a design that you will love. The best thing about booking Creative Floral Designs is that Bernie made the entire process so easy for us. We cannot express enough how wonderful it was to work with him. He was hands down our favorite vendor. We received so many compliments from family and friends regarding our florals and they were so excited when they could take the centerpieces home. Another highlight is that you also really cannot beat his pricing for his level of detail and quality of work. His prices also include the cost of the vase (and he has lots of options to choose from) so compared to other florists who would add additional costs, he was giving us a great deal. On the day of the wedding he arrived early with his assistant to set up and needless to say, they set up everything exactly as we had discussed. He even went the extra mile by offering to pin the boutonnieres and corsages on the wedding party so that everyone would be ready for the photoshoot. Bernie was very instrumental in making our wedding more beautiful than we could have imagined. We highly recommend Creative Floral Designs and promise that you will not be disappointed! read more

We booked Bernie to help us with our wedding florals. The process was so easy and we just had to tell him the colors of our wedding and how many of each bouquet/boutonnières we wanted. We also asked to have the aisle and gazebo decorated by him. On the day of, Bernie helped deliver the bouquets and boutonnières. He was friendly and had everything marked down so we knew which boutonnière was for whom. He timed it out perfectly so he would decorate the ceremony before guest arrival. It was a bit windy that day so the florals lining the aisle were blown out of place. Not a big deal since I barely even noticed. The gazebo was dreamy and perfect based off a photo I imagined the florals to be. I couldn't be happier to have gotten to work with Bernie for our wedding day. Note - bride bouquet is heavy. Make sure to do some arm workouts! No one ever told me how heavy that thing was haha! read more

I have nothing but praises for Bernie and his team. Bernie was very prompt in responding to emails. I made a couple of changes 2 weeks before my wedding and he was accommodating throughout the whole process. The flowers were beyond my expectation. They were very beautiful and well designed. And they remained fresh throughout the night. All the guests including myself really love the colors schemes and arrangements. I had compliments from everyone. I highly recommend Bernie and his team. Would definitely utilize this business again. Thank you so much Bernie and team for making my wedding so beautiful! read more

Our ceremony site was Grapevine Arbor, located in San Gabriel. I looked into local florists. As soon as I contacted Bernie over the phone, he was very knowledgeable about the venue which made me comfortable. I never met Bernie in person throughout the whole process: before our wedding or on a wedding day. Yet he recreated my vision plus more. I absolutely loved how he decorated the gate and my bridal bouquet. When I need a florist for future life events, I will definitely contact Bernie. read more

Bernie was amazing and totally executed our vision just by providing my preferred colors and florals. I was blown away on the day of our wedding after seeing all of the florals that he provided. He was so easy to work with with, and was flexible with our last minute changes, was quick to respond with any questions and truly so kind. read more

BERNIE IS AMAZING! Flowers provide so much sentimental value, especially for a joyous occasion. My reception venue recommended Bernie, so I reached out to him. Once I sent my inquiry, he responded immediately after. I sent him my vision on my Pinterest board, and he knew exactly what to do from there. He always provided great feedback, suggestions, very prompt and responsive to any changes I requested. His prices are also very reasonable. I met him a few months prior my wedding to receive a floral mock-up and WOW, I was so impressed! It was one of the most beautiful arrangements I've seen. It got me even more excited for the big day. On my wedding day, his work became even more exquisite. My guests could not stop raving about how beautiful the arrangements were. Many family and friends took home centerpieces, while we donated larger arrangements to our church. Additionally, I was able to preserve my bouquet, so that is something special to have. I wish I lived closer, but when I am in the SGV area, I will definitely be sure to keep coming back. Thank you so much Bernie for being part of my wedding day! The pictures and flowers are something I will always cherish. read more

My wedding was in May this year and I chose Creative Floral Designs for our ceremony gazebo decorations per all the good reviews. Believe in what others have to say, Bernie had made our Gazebo beautiful and exactly what I had described to him for the color I wanted. He helped put the floral up and take them down, and replied to all my emails promptly. I was pleasantly surprised that he had put some thought for our parents rose ceremony. The rose was wrapped with the red (for mom) and blue color (for dad) and with lots of green leaves and baby breath that our parents were so happy to receive. read more

Bernie was soo amazing to work with!! I sent over some examples of what we wanted for our wedding ceremony and reception (at two different locations), and he made sure that the looks and colors were right what we wanted; they were fresh, beautiful, classy, and set up perfectly on time. Truly made our day easy and happy. Many thanks again Bernie and team! read more

Bernie is just amazing in his work and his customer service. Planning a wedding amidst work and life is so stressful, but Bernie is so very understanding through the 2 times I missed my appointment with him when he prepared a sample bouquet. When he sent me the photos of the bouquet which did not match what I wanted I was worried that based on his yelp reviews, he did not have much work with the type of florals I wanted. However the photos of my wedding day is proof that Bernie is very versatile in his work and can really make your dream and vision come true. I would not hesitate to recommend him to everyone I know and I know you won't regret using him as your florist. read more

I can't say enough good things about Bernie and Creative Floral Design. From the first meeting until our wedding day, we were so impressed with this florist. Our first meeting with Bernie was about 9 months before our wedding at the Vibiana, and he was already familiar with our venue. He was very open to suggestions and helped us with designing our ceremony and reception. He was very honest in what would work and what wouldn't, which I really appreciated. He tried his best to help us with our budget and our large guest count. For him to be able to carry out a gorgeous 43 table/430 guest wedding with ease was very impressive. He also suggested repurposing a lot of our ceremony components for our reception. We were so pleased when we walked into our reception and he had decorated it beautifully, even with extra flowers from the ceremony to fill in the gaps that I didn't think about. I had multiple friends that used him as their wedding florist, and he did not disappoint. He will carry out your vision exactly how you want it. I was very specific with what I wanted and that's what I got. Thank you Bernie! read more

Bernie had done 4 weddings in our family and he is phenomenal! His customer service is always above and beyond! His work is perfection!

I promise you will not be disappointed with Bernie's work! read more

Bernie did a beautiful job with the flowers and accessories for our wedding. The centerpieces and bouquets were absolutely stunning.

We worked with Bernie for our wedding at the Vibiana, and he was amazing to work with. From the first email, he was able to provide an immediate quote. After meeting with him in his little shop, he was able to design and visualize beautiful arrangements after seeing our Pinterest inspirations. At the tabletop design meeting with the venue, he was able to come with a centerpiece sample as well, and let us take it home! On the day of, he came promptly on time to set up all the florals. He stayed until the reception started to make sure that all the table arrangements were set up properly. Overall, all the flowers were so beautiful and he did an excellent job with our very large order. All the guests were amazed at the flowers.... they all took the centerpieces home too =) read more

Creative Floral Designs - So perfect - Floral Designers Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Bernie and his team were absolutely amazing! We really didn't have a style or anything specific we were going for and they figured out exactly what we wanted and more. We've gotten so many compliments from our guests saying the have never seen roses like this. He was accommodating of two different cultural references (both men and women's leis and a beautiful Chuppah), as well as children flowers and last minute guests requesting flowers for themselves. I had no idea until my coordinator told me, but we were asking for changes just days before the wedding..which apparently most florists do not allow and Bernie had no issue at all. Flowers were gorgeous and very competitively priced. His team was so kind on our wedding day. Do not hesitate to get your flowers from Creative Floral Designs for any occasion! read more

Bernie did an AMAZING job with my wedding flowers, I could not be happier! I had specific examples of what I wanted, and he executed my vision perfectly, and the end result was above and beyond what even I had imagined. Some of the inspo pictures I gave him were of faux flowers or flowers that weren't in season, and with his expertise he was able to recommend flowers that resembled what I was looking for. His prices are very reasonable and he is so responsive, the most responsive vendor that I had. I changed my mind a couple times and he was always so patient and timely with updating my quote. On my wedding day he was one of the first vendors there and by the time I was there for the first look everything was set up for the ceremony already, including the beautiful floral arch that he made. And they moved everything seamlessly into the reception area into all the places that I had wanted. I'm so happy to have worked with Bernie, he made my wedding absolutely so beautiful! read more

October 2018 - November 2019 : Flowers for Engagement photoshoot, Ceremony, and Reception We worked very closely with Bernie throughout the year as my wife had very specific ideas regarding the flowers and various questions. We communicated mainly through email and met a couple times for viewing mock-ups and payments. Bernie was very patient despite our lack of knowledge about flowers and worked with us to provide options to match our budget. My wife was slightly concerned after receiving the flowers for the engagement photoshoot as it wasn't what she imagined; however, with more communication, the flowers for the day of the wedding turned out as expected, if not better. If you provide Bernie with directions and what you want, he is very nice to discuss the options and provide mock-ups, if needed. Bernie helped repurpose the flowers at the ceremony for the reception to help decrease cost. We also purchased our own centerpiece stand so we could gift it to our guests, and Bernie created the floral arrangement on top. We were very happy with the floral arrangements and designs on our wedding day - from the boutonnieres to the bouquets to the ceremony arch to the flowers on the aisle to the centerpieces! We were fortunate to have chosen Bernie and his team to be our wedding day florist. read more

I hired Bernie to do my wedding and the results were nothing short of spectacular. Bernie provided a floral archway for the ceremony, bridal bouquets, boutonnieres, floral centerpieces for the tables and floral decorations for the cake. Pictures do not do the work justice. Every flower was fresh and moist. Ever petal, vibrant with color, created an amazing color palette for the atmosphere. My guests and other vendors were astounded with the artistic arrangements. In fact, my guests are still complementing the beautiful flowers days after wedding. I love that Bernie was always reachable by phone, no matter what crazy hour it was. To Bernie, no task was too small and no challenge was insurmountable. He only ever said yes to us. I am so glad I hired Bernie to do my wedding. read more

Everything GREAT you heard about Bernie and Creative Floral Designs are ALL TRUE. We've used Bernie twice now....for our wedding and for Convalidation (a church ceremony blessing our marriage) and we couldn't be happier with the results. He is now our go to florist if we ever need flowers for an event or a special occasion. Creative Floral Designs is a one stop shop - bouquets, boutonnieres, center pieces, cake decorations, arrangements for the altar, etc.....he CAN DO IT ALL and DO IT WELL! He's very talented, easy to work with and very punctual. You're guaranteed quality arrangements for a good price (NOT cheap BUT good). I can go on and on but the pictures posted by HAPPY CUSTOMERS on his Yelp page speak for his fabulous work. read more

My relationship with Creative Floral Designs started when I was delivered a floral arrangement for my Birthday. Breathtaking, special, dramatic, and thoughtful are the words to best describe amazing the arrangement was, more important, these words also describe how they made me feel. It's important to mention that my boyfriend talked about how Creative Floral Designs was so hands on and easy to work with...a big deal because he knows how practical and particular I can be. I have since sourced Creative Floral Designs for my party favors, cousins' high school corsages, friends birthdays; and they never fail...recipients and patrons alike seem to be very overwhelmed with how special their arrangements make them feel. ~I will never forget how I felt and know the quality of their work. I have always envisioned finding a florist to call mine, one who just understands what I want; and Creative Floral Designs is it! They are simply a pleasure to work with; and they over deliver. read more

Bernie went above and beyond for our wedding. He was so helpful and responsive. His arrangements are beautiful, I received so many compliments on my wedding bouquet and flower arrangements. At my request, Bernie provided several invoices, after I kept changing my mind about what I wanted and was extremely patient with me. The day of the wedding, Bernie used the mason jars with flowers for the table to decorate the ceremony aisle (since we did not decorate the chairs) and moved it to the table after the ceremony (without our request) just because he knew it would look nice. He was very helpful and thoughtful throughout the whole process. I would recommend Bernie to any bride looking for wonderful arrangements and amazing service!! read more

Creative Floral Designs - Thanks for the lei Bernie! - Floral Designers Near Me - San Gabriel, California

Mr. Bernie Hsiao assisted me the whole way through. He is so patient and kind and so helpful. If you're on a budget, he will work with you on that. In the beginning of my wedding planning, I've visisted many florists. Flowers are expensive. That's the fact. But to me having a good relationship with vendors is important too. What kept me to stay with Creative Floral Designs is Bernie's personality. Gosh, i don't even know where to begin. Even my mom likes him -- yes he is that great of a person! He explained all the different choices of flowers I can get and suggested different options for my budget. Communication wise, he is great. He always made time for me to meet up. I remember the first time I met Bernie was one a day his store is closed but he still made the time to come out to San Gabriel area to meet up with me to talk to me about my ideas. At that moment, I already knew I wanted to work with him for my wedding because of his effort. He was even hand delivered all the bouquets, pinned corsages and bouttonnieres on the wedding day. When I first saw the bouquets for the first time I was speechless! They were BEAUTIFUL! And is exactly what I wanted. The boutonnieres and pinned corsages were nice, however I wished it would be a little bigger to make it more stand out. Some of the orchids were a bit tiny. But that's okay it wasn't an issue for me. The only issue I had was the pins. It was so hard to pin those flowers on the mother's dresses. The mothers and grandmothers wished a different kind of pins were used. Something that would be much easier to keep the flower on the dress; a safety pin would have worked better. But the pins that were provided was really hard to pin up. I definitely would recommend this vendor to all the brides out there. In terms of pricing, it really depends on your budget, what kind of flowers you want, how many flowers you want, etc. But all I can say is that Bernie will work with your budget and make it the best for you. read more

I was in need of a florist for our wedding that was quite a bit of a short notice. The florists my coordinator strongly recommended was extremely overpriced for what we were looking for and what was in our budget. So I started to look for one here on yelp. It was truly a blessing to find Bernie. From our first conversation to our very last, he was extremely helpful, professional, and knowledgable. He read what was on my mind when I was trying to explain to him what I was envisioning and what I wanted. He really went above and beyond expectations, and was easily our favorite vendor for our wedding. If anyone reading this is the least bit hesitant at all, please take my word for it...Bernie is amazing. He even makes a detailed estimate so you know exactly what to expect as far as price. And I was very surprised at how much more reasonable his prices were compared to others. However, my wife and I felt that he was worth every penny and more! Bernie if you are reading this, thank you so much. You really performed magic and made our day unforgettable. My only regret was that I was not able to personally thank you and say goodbye that day. We wish you the best!! -Sherry & Sammy 9/11/21- read more

Don't hesitate to get Bernie to do your wedding flowers! Our wedding planner recommended him and I could not have been happier with his work and ability to work with you within budget. The centerpieces were ample and full - and reflected accurately what I had communicated to him - some tropical flowers, greens, and some burgundy notes with whites and peaches/pinks. The color scheme was elegant and perfect for the day. Though we didn't want to splurge on decor and focused on simplicity so many people complimented how tasteful it looked. The cocktail hour bottles with a rose in them were also larger and more beautiful than I had imagined. The sweetheart table garland was also breathtaking- I had initially just asked for a garland expecting it to be a simple green garland but instead Bernie interwove beautiful desert flowers (the pink bulbous fuzzy one- can't remember what it's called!), roses, and other flowers in them and even threw in extra twinkle lights for free because he had extras! The extra touch and going above and beyond really left an impression on me and my guests. 5 days later, one of the centerpieces still sits on our dining table and looks beautiful. HIGHLY recommend Bernie!! :) read more

Bernie truly provides creative floral designs! I was referred to Bernie from Creative Floral Design from a friend who used him for her wedding last year. She couldn't speak enough of the great work he did for her. He goes by appointments only and makes it very flexible on where and when he meets with you. When I met with him, he mentioned that he usually does weddings and celebrations but was very open to help and make the passing of my dear friend very easier to cope with. Needless to say, I walked away feeling that the flowers were in good hands with Bernie. The next day, he made the delivery and set up himself and he did an amazing job on the flowers. I will definitely be using him for all my flower arrangement needs from now on! read more
