Gorgeous and Green

very honest and clear communication over the phone, easy to work with and get what we needed. clearly they really know their stuff. and of course, FANTASTIC product, holymolyWOW the arrangement was heavenly. just right. will absolutely use again

I’m kind of obsessed with flowers, so I’ve been to 15+ flower shops in NorCal and SoCal and bought 60+ bouquets in the past several years. But this place is my FAVORITE by far. I must’ve ordered 10 or 15 bouquets from this place just in the last 2 years. They’re the most beautiful arrangements and beautiful wrapped (I’ve always thought poor wrapping could ruin a beautiful bouquet of flowers). I’m very thankful I have a car because I’ll be going back here again and again in the future.

This place is amazing with true floral artwork! Pilar understood my hope for my intimate wedding ceremony. I got a Frida inspired floral head piece which made me feel beautiful and special. Her flowers were the best quality and I felt great that they were locally sourced. I highly recommend for any occasion!

Gorgeous and Green is a FIND! I had an arrangement delivered today to a friend in the Oakland hills. She was delighted and sent me a photo of it … beautiful.
Thank you so much.

We recently started using Gorgeous and Green for our front desk arrangement and they are fantastic. Each arrangement has been different from the last and are not your typical assortment of flowers. They are beautifully put together with unique plants and vases. They are a lovely addition to our front desk!

I ordered a flower arrangement from Gorgeous and Green for my sister who had just returned home from the hospital. I live out of town, so I was looking online for a local florist. I viewed their gallery of arrangements and then called and talked to a very attentive person about my specific ideas and details. My sister got her delivery promptly and said they were probably the most artistic and beautiful arrangement she had ever received! And she has high standards! She and her husband live up in the hills, and they were blown away that a woman showed up on a bike with the delivery! Thanks to Gorgeous and Green for a full effort down to every detail; they really made my sister’s day!

G&G did my wedding flowers and I was astounded at the beauty of their work. We got married in Monte Rio (up at the Russian River) and wanted arrangements that looked loose and natural. I wanted sustainable too. I went into the shop and met Ryan, who was then the store manager. He and Pilar worked to understand what I wanted, and solicited images from me that captured the feeling of it. They nailed it. We got bulk flowers and our neighbors did the table arrangements. Gorgeous and Green put together the bouquet, boutonnière, hair adornment and of course selected all the bulk flowers for us. They are A +++++.

They did my bouquet for me wedding and I have to say I was blown away on my wedding day. My bouquet not only captured my vision, but was better than I could have ever described. I got so many compliments on my bouquet. I was also quite happy with the price. I had shopped around and was pleasantly surprised when they quoted me for the bouquet, bud vase trio and hair piece. I felt it was one of the few things that was worth the money when considering paying for a wedding.

What an amazing store! I called in a frantic late request for a flower bouquet for my mothers birthday. They stayed a bit late to finish my order and provided expert arrangement based on the colors I said my mother liked. I love the natural flourishing feel of the flowers. They felt organic and refreshing, yet solid and beautiful. They smell really nice too. Prices were very decent considering the quality you get. Would definitely come here again and recommend to friends!

This is my favorite flower shop. The store is super cute. They care about environment and uses papers for wrapping flowers yet they are the prettiest both flowers and wrappers. I bought flowers from this shop many times. Every time I take to my friends they seem to really like it.
I think they used to have more flowers but now they carry many interesting items for home which I also like. Maybe they just put more flowers to the back. There are more flowers in the back. The store supports local artists and sell their products.
Owners are super nice and listen to your needs. I will definitely come here again.

To Jenny and Kalaeja, dude: It never stops. Just like these lush bouquets, my relationship with G&G has been growing into a healthy and fulfilling relationship.
I am always surprised with what they can crank out in such little time. Classic but exploratory, the recent bouquet was a jaw-​dropping colorway of orange, yellow, and green. It clashed perfectly.

Love this place! Staff was friendly, worked with my budget, and made the most BEAUTIFUL arrangement for my dinner party.

After chatting with Pilar, we realized that her assistant confirmed the appointment and Pilar was not aware of this. Totally understand that mistakes happen!
Pilar was so apologetic and even sent me a wonderful gift for my time spent. It was just one of those things!
I give Pilar 5 stars for her follow up. She is really so sweet and I can see why people who get to work with her give her 5 stars.
Keeping the review at 3 to average the previous review.
Thanks again, Pilar! You definitely went out of your way on this one :)

Oh my goodness. This little shop is heaven on earth. If these things make you happy, you’re in luck: flowers, trinkets, succulents, gardens, gnomes, artisan jewelry, hand-​made art, candles, nature, terrariums and happy people. You will find all of those things in this shop (and so much more). What a beautiful place to stumble upon. Why not pick up some flowers for yourself? You deserve it. You are beautiful!

I got my wedding bouquet made here and they did such a marvelous job! Very easy to work with and the staff was excited about the project and made it feel special.
The bouquet was lush and perfect and captured everything I wanted with lace and garden roses, hydrangeas, and dahlias. I loved holding it that day and it turned so well in pictures!

Why are terrariums and succulents so cool?! Because they just are.
I just want to live here. Or have really cool friends who will buy me presents from here on the regular.
No green thumb, no fear.

i am so impressed with G&G! i called at the last minute (yikes!) and Jenny gave me all the information i needed to order a beautiful bouquet for my daughter’s completion of college. she loved them!
i especially love that they are so committed to sustainability– that they use only local sources and that they deliver by bicycle. i would recommend them to anyone… their prices are competitive with other florists and they are doing good things for the planet. thank you G&G!!!

As a first generation Chinese American woman, I have a strange relationship with flowers. I love them. There’s happiness when I receive them. Yet I rarely every have them, they seem so wasteful and temporary. Sometimes they make my allergies roar. And then there’s always the task of taking your wilted blooms with that funky smell out of that murky water and tossing into the compost.
So wedding flowers are another hard decision. If you google «wedding finance planning» you’ll usually get a breakdown which lists the top 5 expenses as reception, photography, then either flowers, music, or THE dress.
I’m not terribly picky about flowers. It was overwhelming to even think about memorizing garden varietals for wedding bouquets. Then there’s the thought of choosing an out of season bloom, marked up due to limited availability, and imported from who knows where.
We walked by G+G when they were in our neighborhood. We visited them again. They have this green option where you tell them your colors, and let them do the work for you, using all LOCAL and SEASONAL blooms. At a much more reasonable cost. It was literally everything I was looking for.
You have to give up control, true. Have trust. I wasn’t really sure what I would see on my wedding day but it was GORGEOUS. and green. And absolutely perfect.

My husband and I used G&G for our wedding flowers. I love the flowers they chose for us (we decided to be flexible about which flowers we would like), they were beautiful, special, different and kooky. Not your typical arrangements. Which is exactly what I wanted. I appeciate that G&G is a «green» business. They worked with our budget. I love them.

Note to Hubby,
DO NOT
.. . just get me a card with dogs playing poker on it for my birthday.
DO
.. . present me with a flower arrangement from here (chocolates ok, too).
They do a great job even if you drop in for a last minute bouquet — just give them a price point, maybe select a few of the flowers, and they’ll whip you up something gorgeous and green. They also carry cute and eco-​friendly gifts as well, including cards without poker playing dogs on them.
