Lucky Bamboo

I’ve been coming to Lucky Bamboo for YEARS and I love them! They provide me with the best prices and the best quality, ALWAYS!!! Sung and her husband know me and always work with my budget (I call her mom)!! I work in DTLA and know what other shops offer and no one compares to Lucky Bamboo! :)

Lucky Bamboo is amazing. from here on I will only use them for all my events. they kept their promises on what I wanted and expected. everyone loved the flowers, the detailed work and their workers above all. I am so blessed to have found a florist who I now can trust and refer with pride. I have posted a couple of pictures of my sisters wedding in tiffany blue. please give them the opportunity. you will not regret it!

We were searching the flower district in downtown LA for a florist to do our wedding but couldn’t find one we felt comfortable with until we stumbled upon Lucky Bamboo. My fiancé was struck by a pink rose centerpiece and after a short time speaking with Sung we knew we had found our florist.
Sung helped us to figure out what we needed and offered us fair prices. She loaned us pedestals for the altar arrangements which she suggested we move to the sweetheart table after the ceremony. We had to change our wedding date and she was very responsible in calling us to check-​in to make sure everything was on track. On our wedding day the flowers were beautiful and abundant. We would recommend Lucky Bamboo.

My friend helped me find this gem of a florist. My friend and I did extensive research in finding a florist to make reception flowers and church flowers for my daughter’s arrangements.
We were very pleased with Sung and her floral artists. This florist delivers too. Their prices are very reasonable. You will not be disappointed if you choose Bamboo Florist.

I had Lucky Bamboo do my wedding flowers: 13 center pieces, a sweetheart table arrangement, bridesmaids bouquets, and some boutonnieres. We had been here before to buy orchids and noticed people in the back doing wedding flowers, so we inquired. Although I was skeptical because of the few Unilocal reviews, I am SO glad we went with Lucky Bamboo for a portion of our wedding flowers! HIGHLY recommended!
We scheduled an appointment and I emailed photos of what I wanted to Mrs. Kim. At the first appointment, they put together a sample arrangement based on my photos and price range (they’re very fair about price and work with your budget, btw. I was thankful for this because I couldn’t afford to pay ~100 per centerpiece!). After some discussion about modifications, we put down a deposit and moved forward.
What I really appreciated about Lucky Bamboo was the patience in working with us to get what we wanted. We ended up having a change of heart about the colors and flowers, and so we scheduled a second appointment and discussed modifications. They didn’t/couldn’t do a second sample for us, and I was nervous that they’d get it wrong. However, they are very knowledgeable about the seasonal, color/​aesthetic, and financial aspects of flowers. I was a bit worried after the second meeting (because I had not seen a sample; I was just told to trust them!).
On the day of the wedding, I was absolutely blown away by how beautiful, fresh, and perfect ALL the flowers were. Mrs. Kim was right in telling us to trust her. The team at Lucky Bamboo are true professionals and are so good at what they do. I have been recommending them to all my friends who want beautiful wedding flowers on a budget!

I was very impressed when I picked up a set of flower arrangements for my wife’s birthday party from here. It exceeded my expectations! They were beautiful and my guests commented on how they looked better than many wedding arrangements!
We have used them for the past 8 years for various birthdays and for our wedding. Our wedding coordinator and the catering company all commented on how beautiful and professionally well done our flowers were, and wanted to get the contact information.
I’m not surprised that they don’t want pictures to be taken. Their arrangements and designs are special and part of the added amazing value that they give with their already low prices.
The owners are really nice people, and are able to help you get some amazing arrangements. But as with anything else, if you go in there you should also be kind and respectful– do unto others as you would want them to do unto you.

The owner gave me yellow orchids for $ 10. Original price is $ 13. Blue orchids were sold out… I would come back and buy from them.

Amazing amazing amazing, you walk into the place and you see the difference of the work done on the flowers from the surrounding stores. I only bought my bouquet (peonies) and my boutineers for my fiancée, ring bearer, and dad and three small bouquets for my nieces (bridesmaids) ages 5,5 and 6. I spent around $ 300-​$ 400. If you’re on a budget this may not me the best place, but the customer service was awesome and the although they were close to closing time sat and dedicated the time i needed to make my decision. I also bought my head table centerpiece :) Gorgeous arrangements, flowers are very fresh. Would definetely recommend this place :)!! Can’t wait to see the final work, will update if anything less than 5 Stars :).

Despite myself having only 30 minutes to consult with Sung on my floral vision for our wedding day, she was able to bring this vision to life with her amazing talents. Don’t let her slight accent or what you think might be a language barrier keep you from enlisting her help. Trust that she will understand your wishes. You will not regret your decision to use her. Btw, not sure why some of the reviewers thought she was rude when in reality she was far from it. She’s kind, sweet, and very polite.

Wow. what NERVES!!!
so I walked into the store to get inquiries about wedding flowers. Something about koreans that rubs me the wrong way about their behaviors… (i’m korean so i know how koreans are). My fiancé and I walked into the store, the owner gentleman (who doesn’t speak english that well) referred me to his wife (who speaks somewhat of english). We spoke to both of them in english at first, I told her my budget’s about $ 2000, she cringed so then i said maybe we could go more depending on the selections. if you’ve done wedding flowers, $ 2000 is on the smaller budget side. The husband told the wife in korean that she (wife) should take us around the store for cheaper arrangements. and the WOMAN tells her husband in KOREAN that «no, they have some money, you stop talking». WOW!!! I don’t know what her plan was, but after I heard that, i wanted to just GET OUT OF THE STORE!!! later on, I spoke to her in korean, and OH MY GOODNESS she turned into Angel and gave me the princess service. I can’t deal with these types of two faced people on my wedding day.
i only gave two stars because the arrangements were actually beautiful. But they do charge arm and a leg. I wouldn’t recommend this store if you’re on a tight budget.

I’m a firm believer of good service and the minute I walked in Sung was very nice. I’m not sure what the others are talking about. I ended up with two florists because unfortunately my first florist couldn’t compete with the price for what I wanted. My dream wedding came true because of Sung and her team!.. the arrangements were gorgeous. i’m even preserving one because they are soooo pretty! Thank you Sung!!!

I have used this place for my wedding, and many more events. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS!!! Sung is great! If you give her a budget, she will stay within the budget and create something unimaginable. It is definetly worth going to see her.

Amazing little shop. For girls who are having a wedding… cut out the middle man bulls*$# flower shops who charge double since they buy from shops like lucky bamboo and orchid and just bump the price up. Go direct!!!
The little korean lady here did some of my flowers for my wedding and she went above and beyond my expectations! She made the most adorable flower covered wagon for my flower girl & floating monogram letter’s covered in flowers! (check photos)
Luckily I work right around the corner and am able to buy fresh orchids every month from her.

Clean store with many beautiful flower displays. At the beginning stages of wedding planning. I got a lot of ideas & inspiration browsing the flower district. Wanted to take pics but the nice man working said no pictures allowed. Read some reviews about service. This ain’t no Barney’s or Nordies. It’s like a floral flea market, of course you’re not going to get the high level of service. I guess it’s the price you gotta pay if you want flowers 30%+ cheaper.

I was slightly apprehensive when I first read the reviews for this shop in downtown. But it was so hard not to be amazed by the gorgeous work they do when walking past this little shop in downtown flower district. The owner Song is a very very talented artist. I ended up hiring them for my recent February wedding for all the reception and ceremony arrangements, as well as for the personal flowers and my bridal bouquet.
Here are my reasons for 5 stars:
— exceptional work, I still get compliments for all the arrangements
— very affordable, other shops would not want to work with my tight budget
— they delivered everything from downtown to both: Pasadena and West Covina, CA and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg.
— great customer service, they are honest and will give you alternative ideas to work with a really tight budget
They are very very easy to work with and I was one of those brides that really was hunting for something different yet romantic and had collected tons of pictures from magazines that I used as a reference. I made sure to ask the questions such as: Will these flowers still be in season by the time my wedding comes by? To avoid any headaches. I was in the clear.
I got the wedding of my dreams because of the amazing work this shop did. My bouquet was extraordinary, the reception was dazzling with deep anthuriums, my favorite cymbidium orchids, roses, tulips, and more.
I can’t wait to have another event in which I can hire this shop again!

This place is fabulous! We had the best experience when my husband and I got married last year June 27^th 2009. We booked them a year prior and Sung (the owner) and also the other workers there were very helpful and gave us what we had wanted. I read some of the reviews about them being rude and we totally disagree from our experience atleast. They worked with us really well as far as negotiating prices etc. On top of that… their work is awesome! as well as the $$. Im from Orange County so if we were to get the same thing here… it would have definitely cost us alot more. There are not too many reviews on here regarding this place so dont just base it on that. I would go there and check it out atleast.

This is by far the worst customer service experience I have ever had. We put down a $ 300 deposit on flower centerpieces for our wedding ($ 2,000 total) and when we decided to do non-​flower centerpieces instead the shop owner and her rude assistant informed us that they would not give us anything for our deposit. They would not let us buy something else from their store for $ 300. They repeatedly said, «Your money is gone.» We weren’t trying to get our money back; we just wanted to buy something else with the $ 300 deposit. They said we lost our $ 300 because they had already spent time talking with us. That was the most idiotic thing I have ever heard. Can you imagine going into Nordstrom, spending 20 minutes trying on shoes, not buying anything, then having the salesperson charge you $ 10 for his time?!
The owner of this store tried to get rid of us by telling us we had to make an appointment to resolve our complaint. Meanwhile, her assistant was smiling and saying «your money is gone.»
It was by sheer persistence for over 30 minutes that we were finally able to get the owner to agree to let us buy 3 centerpieces for our $ 300. Gosh, thanks! What a tremendous deal!
I have placed deposits dozens of times before and I had never before encountered a business that will not let me spend the deposit on other merchandise at their store. Mind you, this was 1 month before our wedding! There was no way they had ordered the flowers at that time. They would not have lost any money. They simply saw it as a way to make easy money. Completely unethical. There are so many options for flower shops downtown. I recommend choosing anyone but this store.

We went into this store this past weekend to buy a bamboo arrangement. I have never been treated so rudely in a place of business. One of the people who worked there YELLED at me for wanting to go down the aisle and look at an arrangement. Clearly they do not value their customers. I promptly left and purchased a similar arrangement elsewhere.

I used to live downtown so of course I wanted to take advantage of the rock bottom prices of the flower shops. I decided on using Lucky for my wedding which took place on 11÷3÷07. I had met with them starting back in March and everything was going good. They have some great creations in their entrance and are always preparing for a wedding or big occasion. The owner doesn’t speak very good English so I had to discuss things with her assistants, mainly in Spanish (my Spanish isn’t to good). Their prices were better than any you’d find at a «regular» flower shop but we still managed to spend about $ 2K.
I chose orchids and other red flowers. Once the wedding was less than 1mth away all hell broke loose. No one seemed to realize or bother to tell me that the flowers I chose were not in season in November and that they’d have to be imported for an extra $ 300. On top of that, the price for certain arrangements changed due to the original price given being an error by one of her assistants. I argued with the owner and left so upset. In the end I had 2 choices, completely change all my floral arrangements and choose new flowers for the entire wedding (orchids were the main flower I was using throughout the wedding) or pay the extra money. Well, I paid the extra money since I had always wanted orchids and couldn’t think of another flower as beautiful. On the day of, only about 70% of the flower arrangements came out as we had discussed. Of course this didn’t upset me since it was such a happy day but I did notice. In the end, after so much planning with them they only partially lived up to what we agreed. I would caution using them for big events like that but not for your year around floral needs.
