    This floral arrangement came out beautifully! The service was excellent. I spoke on the phone with Doug and told him I was looking for an arrangement with blue flowers to send to a friend. He stated he could have it delivered the next day as he was out of blue flowers. But I needed them delivered the same day so said it was okay to switch to coral colored flowers. Doug said he would make it happen. Wow! He certainly did. Not only did he get them delivered the same day, but was also able to get my original request completed. Great customer service and they came out stunning. Definitely was a great value for something so gorgeous. Thanks so much, Doug!

    They did an incredible job! The arrangement was absolutely perfect, and was just as pictured on their site. The recipient loved, loved, loved them and said they were the most beautiful flowers they've ever received.

    The only flowers that survived

    Arrangements are pretty but this flowers don't last me more than 3 days... my husband got me a $60 dollar flower bouquet, only for it to be full of plants and not actual flowers, for them to die 2 days after!! Like what the heck!? I was not going to post this but this is not my first bouquet from there and it always happens

    I had to take the time to write a review on these gorgeous flowers. I was blessed and lucky enough to receive a floral arrangement from a beautiful friend and was amazed at the length of time the floral arrangement lasted and how gorgeous it was. As a flower admirer and a person who loves to show my appreciation, affection, welcoming, sympathy, support, and congratulations to people I love and care about with flowers, I truly know how to enjoy the beauty of such exquisite work. Let the pictures speak for themselves. The picture I've attached was also taken 3 days after I was given the arrangement and the multitude of flowers made me happy to see everyday.

    This is THEEEEEE BEST florist in San Diego ! We haves used their dry flowers in our RV bathroom and it's still looking good after a lot of moving around. (8 states) They make the most beautiful centerpieces and just love going in there and bringing something in and saying This is my limit, go wild ! They always surprise me. I'm truly sad I don't get to get my flowers from here anymore. We sold our house in SD and travel now.

    One of the most beautiful arrangements I've ever seen!! Doug was so incredibly kind to pull this together for us with just 15 minutes notice.

    My bridal bouquet came out stunning in all my photographs, along with the boutonnière! It really was the perfect touch for our outfit ensemble. Thank you Genesee Florist for your service! Even though I requested these last minute for my civil ceremony, they were quick to have them ready on time for the big day. So glad with how they turned out.

    I was in the hospital for a couple weeks, and my out of state college friend sent me beautiful flowers and a balloon through GF.

    I just received flowers and a "Get Well Balloon" delivered right to my hospital room right after my surgery from my best friend from out of state. The flowers were beautiful. The balloon was beautiful. The person who delivered them was very nice. She walked into the room saying, Someone sent you flowers, "Thanks for uplifting my spirits Genesee Florists."

    Wow. Wow. Wow. Genesee Florist over-exceeded my expectations on their flower delivery. In the past, florists always deliver arrangements that look nothing as beautiful as the photo but Genesee Florist's delivery was more beautiful than the photo. I highly recommend them.

    Love this florist! A good friend of mine discovered them when she was looking to cheer me up on a bad day and I've since sent several bouquets to loved ones. The arrangements are beautiful and I think you get a fair deal for the price.

    I spoke with Doug in order to send some flowers to a friend who had surgery over at Sharp Memorial. I gave him a price point and asked him to create something beautiful... he nailed it! The flowers are just beautiful! Also delivery was faster than I expected. Would highly recommend this flower shop. Thank you Doug!!

    Unfortunately looks nothing like what was pictured on the site. Added a star for quick same day delivery.

    Such a beautiful arrangement! I was nervous about ordering flowers from out of town since I didn't know any florist in San Diego. But fortunately I found Doug! He let me send him a picture of what I had in mind, and then sent me a picture of the finished arrangement! I love it! And he kept it within my price range too! Thank you Doug, will definitely return in the future

When i found out at 3pm the flowers were not delievered i called to ask why. The calendar on their website at end of month is a rolling calendar vs month youre in so I made a mistake and ordered for March vs February. Fair enough, so since the flowers werent delivered that day before 1, I asked for a refund of the $10 rush fee. The manager, got sassy and was extremely rude with me and told me no. They were sticking with original order. I told her either refund me the $10 rush fee or refund me the entire order of $200 (ish). She said she would rather lose the order than refund me the rush fee. I got my refund and cancelled the entire order. Whomever this mgr is who took my call....she needs a lesson in customer appreciation and not to be sassy when people are calling. 0 stars if possible! in response to the post...i did not ask for a refund of the purchase AND free flowers. I wanted the flowers...why would i want a refund and to deliever the flowers. no one works for free! I wanted a $10 refund but the gal who called me wouldnt listen, was snappy, and short.

Liz's Flowers was fantastic to work with. I called the shop a couple of times; each time they were also quick to respond and friendly.

She even gave me the personalized ribbon free of charge. When the arrangement was complete, she texted me a picture of the final product.

I found out via…read moreemail the morning of delivery, that apparently Chula Vista is not within the scope of delivery for the flower shop, as it's too far. This was not indicated at all during the order process so was very off putting to hear day of for a Mother's Day arrangement. I am currently out of state for work and an unknown number was calling my cellphone, it was the delivery driver from a trusted florist that was sublet to take care of my order. The driver was going to deliver to the wrong address even though she read the proper address back to me over the phone. I spent about 10-15 minutes on the phone walking her through finding the location of our home and verified delivery via camera and doorbell. When you're paying a premium price to have something done properly and this is the outcome, it was extremely disappointing. I will not be using four seasons flowers for any special occasion again, big let down on many levels. 5-10-2026: To the owner of the shop that just replied back to my review. I am not sure how much more clear I can make this to you, the CORRECT address was provided and everything was filled out appropriately on my end, I am not understanding why you are harping on the fact that this was an online order, if your operation doesn't have the capacity to accommodate this then don't offer it as a service. There is absolutely NO difference in placing an order in person, over the phone and or online. The "trusted" florist you decided to pawn this order off on still attempted to deliver to the WRONG address. Nothing about this was as a success and I cannot believe you have the audacity in a public platform to try and deflect the way that you are. I spent 10-15 minutes on the phone with an elderly delivery driver explaining to her very kindly, that wherever she was going was not the correct address, I am struggling to understand what about this are you not understanding? I am absolutely flabbergasted that instead of reaching back out in attempt to correct the issues, especially in a review, this is your stance. Your address is irrelevant when you're listed as one of the top rated florists in San Diego, if you didn't know, Chula Vista is 100% part of the city. Adding photos for context, maybe you want to rethink your "trusted" partnership approach. Pretty ridiculous again your take on things. Will NEVER be using your shop again and will be sure to spread the word to friends and family to steer clear of your establishment! Very funny that the florist is claiming this is the first email they received, my first communication to them was not the one they decided to include in their review, don't believe everything you read. The owner is incredibly defensive and does all that she can to deflect and spin any negative review to benefit her operation. Go and check yelp and google and get a kick out of it if you have time. The only thing good that came of this after airing things out publicly was a refund.
