Not sure if they use the same Santa each year but he was so wonderful and patient with our boys and held our baby with ease! The store itself was beautiful and well organized.

They have a private bathroom and easy for kids. Parking is easy out front. We'll go back for gifts for sure!

From handmade birdhouses to gourmet foods to throwback candy to inspirational books, this place has something for everyone! Be sure to check out their Facebook page and be informed of upcoming sales and events! They have a special Wednesday night girls night that includes a discount on all purchases. My anti-shopping husband and I went on a Sunday afternoon and I had to drag HIM out of the store! He found so many things that he wanted that he had to start a pile at the register so he didn't have to carry everything while he continued to shop! Our treasures included a pizza oven cook book, a shepherd's hook, a birdhouse, some peach bbq sauce, a handmade pen, a large picture/wall hanging, and a few caramels. We love it all and can't wait to go back! Pro tip....be sure to use the restroom so you can read about the history of this beautiful space. Sounds weird, I know, but what a lovely story abut a well-loved place! This is the PERFECT place to go if you are wanting to buy a unique and thoughtful gift for someone but have no idea what to get. Your gift will be the best one your receiver had gotten! The prices are fair. Not too high but not a discount store either. It is still a boutique. Oh...and the salespeople are just awesome! So sweet and make you feel like you are their closest friends. They wrap your goodies under with care and even offered to help carry things to our car. The whole experience was a 10/10!!!

The arrangements from this family have been unique and literally outstanding from the others! The flowers are fresh and beautiful. Every time (more than 5 deliveries) the arrangement looks custom and professionally thought through. The flowers from each - long outlasted the other arrangements that we received. I recently reached out to find out where these had come from and am excited to order my first delivery from the Wild Orchid. This will be my first option going forward. Highly recommend!

Told me all sales were final per store policy. My husband was never told that when purchasing said item and there were NO signs posted with that policy, so I am stuck with an expensive, unwanted gift. I will never shop there again...I used to stop in quite a bit. I will also make sure that everyone I know that lives around here knows about this business' ridiculous return policy and my experience. Especially considering it is a "GIFT SHOP"!

The to pick it up your finished project a week later like it's a surprise is super fun. I just wish it was so expensive!!! It cost my son and I almost $100 just to do two medium sized items. I would have given them 5 stars but the daytime staff were not helpful and acted annoyed when I'd get up and ask them for more paint which is what they told me to do. Half the time they sat at a table gossiping. The evening crew that came in was great. They immediately checked in with us and were super helpful and kind. Good customer service goes a long ways. Especially when you're dropping that much $$$.
