Sofia’s Flowers

I had an excellent experience with Sofia’s. I went to the flower district on a Friday morning to get flowers for the temple for my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah. After waling around various areas in the flower mart, I ended up at Sofia’s. I showed them a picture of what I wanted. They told me they could do it. I was a little skeptical since they did not have any of the the flowers in the picture in their store. They told me they would get them from the mart. They asked me to come back in 30 minutes. My flowers were ready and absolutely gorgeous. It was tropical arrangement. They still looked perfect the following day for the ceremony. I donated them to the temple and they were extremely appreciative.
I would use them again in a heartbeat. I recommend bringing a picture of what you want.

If I could give just half a star, I would. Half for being able to at least do some flowers.
I coordinated a wedding over the weekend. The bride had asked me to pick up the bouquets and boutineers and corsages (personal flowers) to bring back to her house the day of the wedding. I had called 2 hours in advanced reminding them of the arranged 12pm pick up time. I called again 30 minutes before arriving and they assured me the personal flowers were all ready. When I got there, I counted all for the bridesmaids and groomsmen, bride’s bouquet, toss bouquet and bouquet to Mary. I noticed the boutineers were all the same color. When I asked where’s the groom’s, they looked confused and realized they made his the same color as the groomsmen. I asked about the parent’s corsages and boutineers, they looked confused again. I called the groom to talk to them. He reminded them they were given pictures to show them (florists) exactly what they wanted. They had me wait 30 minutes while they made the parents/​grandparents flowers.
When I arrived at the bride’s house, it turns out the florist gave less flowers than agreed when the bride and groom had first placed their order. The bride’s bouquet was too small and the bridesmaids’ flowers only had 7 gerbera daisies instead of the agreed 12 stems. All of the bouquet’s were sloppily done too. And the rhinestones for the bride’s bouquet were missing. The maid of honor left with the bride’s bouquet to go back and try to add more flowers to the bouquet and get the rhinestone’s back. The florist insisted they can’t put more flowers because «it would be too big for the bride to carry». Uh, there were only 2 dozen flowers on the bouquet, I’ve seen bigger being carried. The maid of honor decided not to argue too much because the church and reception flowers still had to be delivered.
They were also very late delivering the church flowers. They were supposed to be there at 2pm but got delivered at 2:45pm when the ceremony started at 3pm! The priest was raising his voice at me for them being late too. They are only located about 2 miles from the church. The reception flowers were supposed to arrive at 3 but they got there after 4pm.
I tried to check the receipts but they wrote it all in spanish, which I can not read. There’s no name or business sign on their store so they might change their name. Be careful, I will NOT recommend these people to any bride and groom for their wedding. They have awful customer service. If you do decide to work with them, leave paper trails and pay by check, NOT cash. So you can prove how much you paid if you decide to take them to court.
