I had one of those amazing "only in Hawai'i" experiences with Sharon of Country Heart Flowers…read more Relatively new to the area, I was looking for a reputable and creative florist to make an arrangement to take to a neighbor who had invited me to dinner. I called on the morning of, and got an immediate message to text instead. That's where the magic started, and we had a short back and forth text convo, agreed on a price, and Sharon got to work. I didn't fully realize that I was working with a florist without a store front - or even a website - but the yelp reviews provided the confidence I was seeking. While I was accustomed to browsing pictures of floral arrangements before ordering, I trusted Sharon to create something special for me to bring to dinner. In turn, Sharon trusted me to show up and pay for the arrangement - she just had my first name and didn't ask for a deposit or credit card. Note: Only cash is accepted. Sharon sent a text within an hour our two, with a picture, saying that the flowers were ready for pickup. She met me at the end of her home's driveway, and was very warm and gracious. A supplier was waiting just behind my vehicle to deliver more flowers...I could tell that Sharon was busy for good reason. The arrangement was stunning, complete with a braided palm (apparently a signature of Sharon's creations). The hosts loved it and were so impressed (as was I). Not only was this an experience that seems unique to the islands versus the mainland, but I have found a local florist that I will turn to with any future floral needs - all within a 5 minute drive from my home!

I chose to get a floral arrangement from Pali Florist and Gift Shop sent to a friend's house…read morebecause of the excellent reviews on Yelp and because the shop was located close to my friend's house. I paid $125 for an arrangement with white flowers and was told by Bob on two occasions that he would let me know when the arrangement was sent and would enclose a picture of the arrangement. I did not receive any such notice. And when I saw a picture of the arrangement that my friend's relative sent to me, I noticed that the arrangement was so small with only six flowers, 3 white and 3 with other colors. I am so disappointed and I will never be a customer of this florist again.

We were very excited to work with this nursery as we were committed to using local businesses for…read moreour North Shore wedding. We specifically went to the nursery one year in advance to look at florals meet with the designer and solidify our selections. I sent photos of my bouquet and the arrangements that I would like to have. We visited the nursery to get ideas about the size of centerpieces for the table and cocktail arrangements and ground arrangements. The nursery had a wedding that they were doing at that time and I took photos of what they had for another wedding. I expected our pieces to look very similar especially in terms of the quantity of flowers in the arrangements. The wedding photo inspirations that I gave to the nursery were directly from a previous wedding that they had done. It was very clear what I wanted my bouquet to look like and our flower arrangements. In addition we added a few other flowers after visiting the nursery, including pink gingers. This was something especially important that my Fiance wanted added to the arrangements. My bouquet arrived and looked like a bridesmaid bouquet. It was about half the size of the bouquet that I had wanted that this nursery had previously done for another bride. The florist did rework it on the spot to make it more align with my vision however it was missing purple orchids, which was something I wanted in the arrangement. I had no communication from the nursery that this flower would be missing off of my order. In addition, I did not see my table arrangements until 10 minutes prior to the wedding as I had a coordinator setting up. I was very disappointed in the arrangements as they had minimal flowers in the arrangements. Many of the flowers, including the ginger were missing from the arrangements despite the fact that I told them that was important to us. Again, there was no conversation about missing flowers. When I called to try to reconcile this, Karen was apologetic and said that their order had fallen short that week on delivery from their wholesaler. And that they had three other weddings and that the delivery of flowers was not up to standard. The owner of the nursery Kathy at first was kind, but then was extraordinarily rude condescending and gaslighted me as the problem. This is despite the fact I had very specific photos of my vision and very specific photos of what I was given, which were too very different things. The owner made me feel like I was the problem person in this equation, despite having very clear expectations for my wedding. I would not recommend working with this nursery not only did they fall short, but the owner could not be more rude.
