A Call Out to the Ladies who live in Hawaii

I know this may seem like an odd request...

I'm really torn about flowers. I'm getting a lack of response from florists and/or their prices are through the roof. I consider myself (and some of my family) very crafty women and so I was thinking of going the Costco route to make my bouquet and I know that they sell leis. So I was wondering for you ladies who live in Hawaii...next time you are in Costco, can you take some pics of the different assortment of tropical flowers they have there and what type of leis they have and shoot them over to me via PM or in this message?

Much appreciated!!!!

    Definitely take a look at Costco, but also take a look at Safeway.  They have a great floral department in the one on Maui, my SIL actually got her flowers from the Carrs/Safeway for her wedding up here and they were beautiful!  Great cost and great selection!

    I wonder if you could just call the store and have them tell you what they have in stock on a regular basis?

    You could contact the lady who does the flowers for Costco.  She will tell you everything they have and the prices.  You can directly order from her and she will have what you want at Costco the day you tell her you are going to pick everything up.

    I think a better way to go about it is to get gift cards for Watanabe Florals (a wholesale floral shop) at Costco - $80 for $100 gift card.  And then you can pick and choose.

    I already contacted the Kona contact for Watanabe Florals and talk about a huge disappointment! The girl only responded after I threatened to take my business elsewhere after I made 3 different attempts. Then she quoted me some outragous prices and when I told her I got a quote from a different floralist, she basically told me to go use them instead. They will not be getting my business! If I was getting married in Oahu, then that would have been a different story. That girl was super helpful.

    Oh...hum!
