It was fabulous! The most exciting service she provided was corsages and bouts for 5 couples for Prom. I gave her color schemes and she did the rest. She delivered them the morning of and everyone was so excited. Thank you so much! I highly recommend Kathy at A Cut Above services!

The flowers were lovely when they arrived around 2:00 on a Friday afternoon…read more It felt light, like it didn't have any water. I put water in it, expecting it had one of those wet foam bricks that held the water for the flowers, and I placed it on the mantle. By Saturday night, I noticed the flowers were wilting, and the arrangement still felt very light. I found that there wasn't nearly enough of a brick to hold enough water for the amount of flowers in the arrangement. In fact it appeared to be only broken pieces of wet foam. The container was stuffed mostly with paper. The website indicates 24 hour notice if you are not satisfied. Shouldn't my flowers last more than 24 hours?

To say I was disappointed with the $800 worth of flowers that were delivered for a Celebration of Life for a client's close friend, is an understatement. I am a professional interior designer of over 35 years. My client choose this shop in Alpine because it was convenient. We stopped in together to place the order two weeks in advance. We brought beautiful crystal vases and bowls from the friend that had passed to use for the arrangements, 3 small, 2 medium and one large. I provided photos of examples of the florals we were looking for. Along with those were also photos and measurements of exactly where the arrangements would be in the host home. They were to be purple, yellow, lavender and white flowers. The largest one that was to be placed at the entry/front door in a tall nook was supposed to be full and to top out above 2 feet tall. I gave very specific instructions for no daisies, carnations or lilies to be used. When I say that I could have gotten mixed bouquets at Trader Joe's (for well under $10 each) and they would have been far superior to what showed up, I am not exaggerating. The largest arrangement had 3-4 yellow roses, mini mum stems, more a filler than anything else, daisies, which were in all of the others as well, status and some other miscellaneous filler. Absolutely no contrast, no other premium flowers, essentially a vase full of fillers with a couple of roses thrown in. In addition, they were delivered the day before and the next morning when we arrived to set up for the event, we had to cull what was already wilted. The flowers in general were poor quality and looked like they had been out for days. Every single one, including the larger ones needed water. We had been told that because of the size of the order, and because it was local, delivery was free. When my client paid in cash, a discount had been applied. But then she was told that a $70 delivery fee now applied. Virtually nothing we were told, or promised, was delivered. Other than the food, served buffet style, and some photographs, the flowers were to be the centerpiece of the days decorations. Lush arrangements with a variety of happy colors. All I could think is that I was glad this wasn't someone's wedding. It would ruin the day. There are several other florists in Alpine, I'm just sorry we didn't happen on one of those instead. Because we only had a couple of weeks to plan, with immediate family being out of state, I just took my client's recommendation that we use this one. In hindsight, there are only 6 total reviews and two of those were negative. Lesson learned, do your homework!

The selection is limited, the space in South Park is cramped. It feels like the price needs to go down by about 40-50%. My husband spent $350 on an arrangement at NP. I went somewhere else for my mom's flowers, saw an arrangement I LOVED and it was bigger and cost $180. So yeah, I think Naive Poppy and I are parting ways.

I booked a couple months out because I wanted to have the reservation and date set. a couple weeks before my event we went to check out the space and we were able to plan out a bit where things would go and what and where we could move things. this space is wonderful for bigger parties of 100-150 people. there are bathrooms. there is lots of street parking and it's close to the freeway. I guess one thing I didn't agree with was how much time we have to set up and break down. we had to add 2 extra hours to set up. other than that Brooke and her husband were wonderful hosts and were pretty accommodating. I definitely recommend this venue for parties such as graduation, engagements, baby showers etc. A solid 8/10

She absolutely nailed the look we were going for: simple, elegant wildflower vibes. The table arrangements were breathtaking--so many of our guests were taking pictures of them! And the bridal bouquet... it blew my expectations out of the water. It was hands down the most beautiful arrangement I've ever seen. It brought all the magic of San Diego spring into one bouquet, matched our palette perfectly, and was so special I'm having it preserved and framed.
