However, after dealing with them and their horrific employees, there is no question that this is the worst flower shop in Southern California, possibly even the world. If you would like to deal with a crying bride on the day of your wedding, by all means, Flower Allie will accomplish that task. But if remembering the beauty of your wedding and the flowers is important to you then stay away from this appalling service provider. Now of course the above stated is my opinion, and you may have heard other stories, but here is ours. My wife was very adamant on the only thing that she wanted in her bridal bouquet was Peonies, and, of course, in their fabulous sales pitch Flower Allie said that no question they would be able to get these flowers on all of the tables and, under no circumstances, would the bridal bouquet be without them. Come the day of the wedding, we were provided with not a single flower we requested, and no Peonies at all. Now I wouldn't be making a big deal about this if this was there only problem. Possibly I would not be on this site had Flower Allie provided decent replacement flowers, however, they failed to do even that. In my wife's bridal bouquet there were DEAD roses. The flowers used were brown and breaking apart and barely lasted through the ceremony. The weddings colors were light pink and cream, and someone Flower Allie decided that providing us with colors that were not even remotely close to what we requested. We additionally requested that Flower Allie provided bar table flower arrangements. The arrangement was very simple a single rose floating in a container. However, the roses used for this were BROWN. This led us to actually talking on our wedding day about removing the bar table roses because they looked like a dog chewed the flowers up before using them. As if the above stated could not get any worse, we were informed the DAY BEFORE OUR WEDDING, that the candles that were requested to be purchased by Flower Allie and that we paid for were never purchased. I was forced to pay extra money to have a different florist give us candles. We also had Flower Allie tell us that they were going to decorate our cake with hundreds of flowers. They were going to place flowers on the cake and around the cake. They did next to nothing on the cake and decorated the table with approximately 15 flowers. Then they decided to spread a bunch of crystals on the table, despite the fact that we told them no crystals. It continues..... There was a fountain that was supposed to be decorated, we specifically told the florist that we did not want flowers in the largest portion of the fountain because all of the flowers pool to one side of the fountain and it would look as if someone just discarded leftover flowers in the fountain. WEll Flower Allie chose to disregard this request and threw the leftovers into the fountain. It looked horrible Lastly, we asked them to place the candles we purchased out. We purchased about 300 candles, and they placed out 50. SO.....if you want horrible service, horrible flowers, a lack of attention to your requests, and for a florist to place the bride in tears on the day of her wedding, I would fully recommend Flower Allie. If none of these things are what you want then RUN AWAY FROM THIS HORRIBLE COMPANY!!!!
