This florist is the biggest nightmare ever. Bobbe will say anything to get your business but it doesn’t mean that he will do it. Beware of lairs: Bobbe and his partner appeared to be a extremely friendly gay couple when they approached us to get the business. But as soon as they get paid, their attitude turned 180 degrees. Bobbe lied to us and promised many things to get us to sign a contract with him. After he received our payment, he became completely unresponsive even when I tried many times to reach him during the three stressful days before the wedding.(Oh wait he did send one short text message at 1:30am the night before the wedding!!!) On the wedding day we had many surprises from Bobbe — not in a good way. Things turned out completely different from what he agreed to. He did not gave me the promised flowers in the fountain. The amount of decorating flowers were a lot less than he promised. I asked for branches and flowers but no green leaves for the gazebo(ceremony site) but when I got there on the wedding date, it was full of green leaves. Worst of all, he replaced the candles with electric light bulbs. It looked so cheap!!! I spent $ 60K for this 80 people wedding but yet I got this electric light bulb candles?! The white flowers on my bouquet turned yellow and dry when I received it prior to the ceremony. The flowers he gave me for my head piece turned yellow too. He didn’t even have the guts to show up on person to do the event(which he said he would) but asked his partner Todd instead. He completely ruined my wedding and I cannot think of anyone who should consider their services. I spoke with the venue afterwards and they told us they had heard similar complaints about this florist. If you have any questions after reading this review, please feel free to reach out to me by sending me a message through Unilocal.I can show you the pictures of the«great work» from the florist and provide the full correspondence.

Bobbe Vagell was on the preferred vendor list for my wedding venue. I met with him once and we talked about colors and ideas. I booked him immediatlely and then later, when talking to a friend, I realized i hadn’t looked at any photos of his work besides what was on his site. Oh well. He was on the preferred list so i wasn’t too worried. Bobbe was ahhh-mahhh-zing. I told him my colors, i wanted them to pop, and i didn’t want it to be boring. I told him to take his artistic license and run without getting too abstract. Well, he sure went above and beyond and i loved every single design. We agreed the gazebo would be simple but if the gorgeous flowers that he wove into the lattice was simple, i’d love to see what intricate is in his mind. Lush petals on the aisle, hanging candles in the dance hall. Oh, and the centerpieces. WOW, each table was different and each was its own work of art — i’d asked for offbeat and not boring and he sure delivered! I also wanted a short centerpiece so guests wouldn’t have to lean to chat across the table and he kept to that request. He has flair, personality, a keen eye, a great price point, and he’s fun. Even the staff at my venue said they were happy i booked him because of his energy and design. I look at pictures of the bridal party and my eyes are drawn to the beautiful bouquets which were so beautiful, elegant, and fragrant. Thank you Bobbe!

Bobbe was a life saver. Had to fire my last florist a month before the wedding because they kept missing appointments! A friend recommended Bobbe, and after meeting with them, our nerves about finding a quality florist a month before the wedding were calmed. Bobbe was able to give us what we wanted with a price that fit perfectly with our budget. Our arrangements were beautiful, and they even drove down to Santa Ana where our wedding was being held to deliver and set everything up. I highly recommend using them for your wedding or event! Could not have been more perfect.

Bobbe … what can I say pure genius! They turn a wonderful space into a glorious space! What ever he touches turns into just magic! When you come to him with just a glimmer of an idea he turns it into more than a reality but a fantasy beyond what you could have imagined. When I walked into my wedding ceremony setting he showed me the most beautiful display of flowers my eyes have ever seen. Every flower was placed in perfect position, no spot was missed in color and detail. I wanted a rainbow of color including purple, blue, red, green, yellow and orange! He made all of this happen and more. Not only did he create every different centerpiece as its own masterpiece, but in these he included eggplant, kiwi, wheatgrass and numerous colors and texture use, was beyond words. Cant tell you how lucky I am to have had Floral Concept be a part of my wedding day! I look forward to using them again in the future! They truly were able to capture the feeling that my husband and I were looking for to both represent us in starting our new life together! Thank You Bobbe and Todd!
