they had the most beautiful flowers. And the spirit of aloha was so clear in their shop. I'm so sorry they closed.

This shop has the best selection with their beautiful flowers- vibrant, colorful, fresh, and long lasting. The customer service has always been accommodating and fast. Prices are reasonable and well worth with the quality. The island bouquet is my absolute go to when I need to get some flowers on the go. Their leis are great for graduations- well put together and beautiful as well. Will take the drive here whenever I need flowers for any occasion. read more

Stunning Hawaiian floral arrangements! My mother was blown away at how beautiful of a job they did. I wanted to get my mom something that reminded her of home, and this place rocked it! The flower shop I used to go to for tropical arrangements closed during the pandemic. I couldn't find another floral business that did beautiful island style arrangements until now. This business specializes in Hawaiian floral arrangements. They have everything from bouquets, fresh leis, and fancy arrangements. The ordering process was fast and easy. They have several floral arrangement styles to choose from online. I chose the day and the time I needed them by, and they were ready on time. I ordered the Poipu arrangement because it had a little bit of everything I was looking for: red ginger, heliconias, protea, anthuriums, orchids, and monstera. They are priced anywhere from $35 for a floral bouquet to $200 for a fancy arrangement. The service here was top-notch. The person I spoke to was responsive and incredibly helpful. They called me when my order was ready to be picked up. I'm so glad I found a place that specializes in island style arrangements! I highly recommend this place. read more

I wanted a head lei for my graduation so I called up island florals and they exceeded my expectations! First off, on the phone, they made a good impression and were really friendly. They were able to do it quickly (I called them a week before I needed it and they said they even could do it quicker. Other places needed at least 2 weeks notice). Next, it was easy to find their location and there was plenty of parking. Lastly, the finished product was beautiful!! I wore it all day long for a grad party and it stayed in tact the whole day. A couple days later, I wore it again for a grad photo shoot. I have even kept it in a ziploc bag in the fridge because I'm not ready to part with it and it has stayed fresh/still looks good 2 weeks later!! I'm definitely coming back for future floral needs! The head lei cost ~$50 with tax. I thought it was worth it! read more

Last minute decision to get our 2 moms something different other than the typical flowers we usually get. I'm so glad I came to Island Florals. I just LOVED what I've got for them and I couldn't help but buy 2 more bouquets for myself. I'm not usually a flowers person, but I do love, love, love tropical flowers!!! read more

I want to add an update to this review, since it was years ago and the fact remains that Florence and Island Florals are still amazing. She provided lei for a non-profit event I was planning and delivered all of them on quick notice. I get my ti leaf from her when I need to make lei. Y'all, I don't even live in Costa Mesa anymore, but when I want or need lei, I drive down from LA to get them from Island Florals. read more

Called into this store on a Thursday very last minute in hopes of finding some sort of haku alternative (I know they may take a while to order/make). The hound lady on the phone was very sweet and helpful and offered to mark an orchid headpiece and have it ready within a couple hours. I stopped by and picked it up within 2 hours and it came out so beautiful! My photography client is Polynesian so this was the perfect surprise for her! Thank you to island florals for the last minute request!! Can't wait to come back (with more time) to order a haku ahead of time. Also: they had MANY flower options available! Definitely check them out! read more

They dont return messages..and finally when I spoke to someone they were rude n unfriendly..so not recommending them to anyone.

Absolutely beautiful ti leaf lei for my wonderful partner for his 60th birthday party! We were all so impressed and filled our hearts with so much Hana and love!! The actual lei were no comparison to the sample pics and the staff was so helpful and friendly! Many mahalos! read more

Aloha! My niece was graduating from UC Irvine and was looking for orchid leis to honor her special day. I found Island Florals on Yelp (yay!) and they seriously didn't disappoint. There's a reason for the many 5 star reviews, and adding mine to that growing group. Their website was up to date and helpful. Even though they list their hours and suggest when to place orders, I still wanted to contact them to make sure. I emailed them and got a response within 24 hours. They could make the leis and just needed two weeks notice. They had a wide variety of leis and could even custom color them- well I asked if they could do a yellow and blue orchid lei as they are the UC Irvine school colors! Could do as a single or double. Awesome! I called and placed the order two weeks prior to pick up, and all was set! They have Saturday limited hours so I had to pick up on before 1pm. Their business is nestled in an industrial area with a mix of different business. Not to worry as there's signage so you won't get lost , and you'll know where to park and location of entrance. The orchid lei was ready to go and in perfect condition. I regret not taking any pics of it before giving it to my niece. She loved it (especially because of the color combo) and thought it was so beautiful. Her opinion is all that really mattered, right? I'm one proud auntie! Thankfully, her ceremony was indoors so the orchids held up nicely. Make sure to refrigerate them as long as you can to keep them as fresh prior to placing on the graduate!! Mahalo Island Florals. I'll be back whenever I'm in need of leis or other flowers in the Irvine area. And special thanks to the friendly staff who helped me find the beads of my bracelet that broke off while I was picking up. read more

This flower shop is incredible! I only found them because of Yelp - as I live in LA. I called (during quarantine) to place an order for my sister who lives in OC. She had a major surgery and needed to be cheered up. The flowers at this shop are legit! My sister lived in Hawaii for 10 years so really knows her island flowers. She was soooo happy & blown away by the beauty, quality and authenticity of the flowers. The shop owner explained she has stuff flown in from Hawaii for her arrangements. That said, the prices that originally seemed a bit high are truly reasonable and in fact even a bargain! The owner of the shop personally delivered the flowers to my sister - contactless and used extra caution to disinfect the vase as my sister was coming home from a major surgery. The owner was as sweet as can be. I highly, highly recommend this flower shop and their work. I was truly blown away! read more

I have tried at least 3 times over the years to go to Island Florals during their business hours....today Jan25 will be my last time trying to support this business. Arrived at their doors 10:50 am but like the last couple of time they were closed. Hours say open 8am-12pm. read more

I have patronized this place back in 2017 for a beautiful double plumeria lei. I referred this place to my dear friend who ordered what we both thought was a similar lei. She picked it up the morning of the graduation and there were many noticeable blemishes and bruises . The graduate was gracious about wearing it still. The owner was apologetic about the oversight in quality control, but this was already after the fact and too late to make it right. We will give her another chance but will make sure we inspect the leis before leaving her store. However, one is usually on the way to the event by pick-up time and already pressed for time as it is. read more

Jackpot! Just moved into the area and found this gem only 2 miles away from me!

What a keeper! Perfect spot to pick up a gift for your loved ones for those special occasions. If you're looking for fresh flowers, come by to pick up the leis or just order. Definitely worth bookmarking especially being open on Saturdays until 2pm. This review was overdue and I came here before to order a Haku Lei for a business social event called "Happy Hula" during the Christmas season. Everyone loved the haku lei and the gals then, when I ordered accommodated it promptly. Shout out to Yesenia as I've noted to review over 5 months ago. Oops :), better late than never. Fast forward: Graduation & 60th birthday celebrations are scheduled today and they had the best gift for each party. Thanks Sandy for taking care of us! You all rock!!! Aloha and mahalo nui from this islander! read more

This is my first time ordering from Island Florals and I was extremely satisfied with their service! I thought I was being early enough when I tried to order one single-strand, child-sized lei for a kid's graduation 2 weeks in advance, but the first florist I tried to order from informed me a week later that they were already booked up (in hindsight, not hearing from the business for 5 days should've been a red flag). Frantic to find a child-sized lei in time, I reached out to Island Florals and they were easily able to accommodate me for not only 1, but 2 single-strand leis in under a week's notice. I'll admit my order was standard and nothing custom or complex, but the leis were beautiful, ready on time, and the perfect size for a Kindergartener. I'll definitely be returning for future events (and will order in advance)! Please note that if you want anything customized, they'll need more than a week's notice. Thank you, Island Florals, for coming through for me! read more

If you are looking for tropical flowers or leis (for men and women) in Orange County, stop by here FIRST. Tell them what you are looking for, when you want it, and when it will be used (this is very important for leis), and they can advise you on their offerings, and their durability. Ask questions, they will have an answer for you in their broad selection. As always, ORDER AHEAD for tropical flowers. The experts here will be available to help. read more

I can't believe this place is so close to my house! I had heard of it before, but never knew their location until my family sent me this arrangement after my surgery. It was such a pleasant surprise! Just look at all the colors and careful placement of each flower and plant. It also lasted a long time (almost 3 weeks). They have a beautiful variety leis year round!!! From pikakes and tuberose, to plumerias and palm leaves- they've got it all!! Their prices are also very reasonable AND they DELIVER!!! read more

I have been a regular customer of Island Florals for 3 events now - wedding, maternity photo shoot, and baby shower. I almost don't want to post this review because I want to keep them a secret! I love love love them so much. They were able to fulfill a last minute order for my baby shower when my other vendor pulled out at the last minute for a haku flower crown. They made a similar flower crown for my maternity photo shoot as well. For my wedding, they were able to put together a beautiful white orchid and greens haku in addition to a Ti leaf maile for my husband-to-be. We were so happy with the results and will order from them again in the future. Thank you, aunties! read more

I was helping a friend buy flowers for a Hawaiian-themed celebration of life, and visited Island Florals for the first time (my friend had known of them for years). It was an AWESOME experience. They had a fantastic selection of gorgeous tropical flowers and greenery that could be purchased individually (as well as assembled "tropical bouquets," one of which was so gorgeous I bought it for myself). They were so kind and informative and patient as we happily selected flowers & greenery for the multiple arrangements we were going to make that afternoon for the celebration of life. I was so impressed and pleased, and delighted with the very reasonable prices, too. (They also had gorgeous leis and make them to order.) I will be back, for sure! read more

Walking into Island Florals is like walking onto a Hawaiian island garden. I recently had the pleasure of accompanying a former employee, (who formerly lived on Oahu as did my husband) to pick up flowers for her to arrange bouquets for our church Altar. The kinds of flowers available here are many and the choices of ready made bouquets are beautiful. I have watched floral arrangements being assembled and they are so amazing. I purchased a ready made beautiful arrangement last week for a presentation and it was well priced for the variety and number of flowers. The owners and their staff are so kind and helpful and I am delighted to know this business and I highly recommend them! Sharon Boles read more

I've been getting flower lei and tropical arrangements here for years. My mom used to buy from them when I was growing up. While they don't have as many lei options as they used to they're still my go to local shop (I think it's just harder and costly to get the ginger, tuberose kind). The staff have always been pleasant and helpful when placing an advanced order for orchid, plumeria or carnation lei and their prices are similar to if you would order from Hawaii and have it over nighted. They make some beautiful bouquets as well or sell individual flowers so you can make your own arrangement. I recommend supporting this local, small business that's been a staple for many families over the years. read more

For my 100th review this year for the Yelp 100 Challenge, and the same day I received my 4th ROTD, I wanted to share a hidden gem located in an industrial park on Logan, off Baker in Costa Mesa. What brought me here recently is, I had to buy a lei on short notice for a special occasion. Ralphs and Conroys did not have anything available, so I remembered Island Florals. I also took the opportunity to order a lei in advance for a graduation that was taking place in one month. Island Florals has leis available every day, and they are open from, 7 am - 2 pm M, 7 am - 3 pm T- F, and 7:30 am - 2 pm on Sat. Hawaiians give leis vs flowers to loves ones on special occasions: Weddings: Anniversaries; Graduations; Birthdays; Promotions; Lei Day (May 1st). I bought an orchid lei on the same day as the event. The event was not that special, so a basic orchid lei did the trick. The ladies were super nice, and the orchid lei was beautiful and fresh just like I bought it back home in Hawai'i. For the graduation in June, I ordered a moderately detailed maile lei (like the one in my profile pic). Graduation is a special rite of passage, when a keiki (boy) becomes a kane (man), and so a special lei is required. Furthermore, a more complex maile lei w/ more design would be appropriate for a college graduation. Lastly, an even more appointed maile lei w/ orchids would be appropriate for a kane on his wedding day. Forget your neighborhood florist or Conroys if you need a lei, or want to do something besides flowers. Island Florals is the only local mainland place I would go to for a lei. They have a lot of offerings at fair prices for last minute needs. In addition, they also offer fancier leis (ordered in advance), for more special occasions, and they assemble Hawaiian-Style floral arrangements as well. read more
