    Dreamy! The most enchanting wedding flower sets EVER! As a wedding photographer, I've worked with countless florists, but La Jolla Florist truly left me in awe. Not only were the flowers absolutely stunning and perfectly matched to the beach scenery at La Jolla Wedding Bowl, but their communication and management skills were also top-notch. Despite a delay and the intense summer sun, they managed to keep the flowers fresh while giving me plenty of time to capture every detail. The photos are breathtaking--I couldn't be happier! Thank you so much Dorothy!

    Wow, just wow. We did a small COVID church wedding since our big plans had to change. Dorthy and her husband went above and beyond. I mean just look at the altar flowers! Gorgeous. Thank you for the smooth delivery and the pick up afterwards and ensuring I had one less thing to worry about as a stressed out bride during a global pandemic. We will be working with La Jolla Florist again for our postponed celebration and we can't wait! Glad to support a family owned business that provides exceptional customer service. They know their stuff and we felt like we were in good hands after meeting with them for our initial consultation.

    Florals of my dreams

    Dorothy was an absolute miracle worker! She's so knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. She exceeded expectations and produced the florals of my dreams! I seriously couldn't believe how attentive and supportive she was. She marked every box, and then some! Each and every floral piece was curated with love and such beautiful detail. Truly an incredible person inside and out! You won't find another florist like her! Thank you Dorothy!

    Beautiful sample table setting from La Jolla florist

    Great, creative, best customer service ever! Owner (?) she is lovely, so customer focused from the color and style of the bride's gown, color of the bridesmaids and best men wear, to the color and types of flower arrangements and price. They are not after selling you the most expensive pieces but what sensory and visual experiences you want the bride/groom and guests to walk away with. Such a great experience that ended with the owner telling us her life story from struggles to success. Such a great shop, service, talent and flower knowledge, the entire experience is 10 stars!!!!!!

    Dorothy's vision and execution of my wedding day florals was out of this world! She went out of her way more than once to make sure I was comfortable with the selections, super responsive and she honored our relationship over a third party contract complication. Not to mention what a kind person she is and her work is outstanding! Would highly recommend! So glad I chose her and couldn't have imagined working with anyone else. Trust her vision!

    I called La Jolla Florist super last minute as I needed a beautiful bouquet for my uncle who was starting chemotherapy, and I had my dates wrong. They were so sweet and helpful. They made me a stunning bouquet, exactly as I requested. I said "happy, elegant, and no Lilies" They also delivered it for me, all in the same day. Actually all within a few hours. Thank you so much! They loved them. :)

    I volunteer at the Jw.org cart in the cove. I make sure to visit La Valencia Hotel for a cappuccino. My favorite part is walking in and welcomed by this magnificent spray of colorful flowers. They are not only regal but they are so fragrant. Something that is sadly missing at most florist. Today As I was smelling the roses I met Craig. He humbly mentioned who the creative genius who is behind the creations... Dorthy. His warm kind smiled out shines the arrangement. This shop has such a thorough happy worker. Craig is genuinely good and kind. The owners sure do have an eye for quality flowers and people on their team.

    What can I say? Amazing flowers delivered timely. I was in town for my 20th wedding anniversary and they made the most beautiful bouquet. Delivered to our hotel. Service was too notch. Flowers are still fresh a WEEK later!

    Stunning flowers delivered with whimsical sea shells in the vase. Really helpful guy taking the order and giving me suggestions. Amazing delivery service, which tracked the recipient down and delivered her flowers to her home, rather than the hospital, after she was released. If only all businesses could have this level of customer service and professionalism. Thank you for a wonderful experience. And did I mention the flowers are stunning stunning stunning?

    I am so happy we went with La Jolla Florist for our wedding. I was so thrilled with the entire experience. Upon meeting Dorothy, I knew that I was in good hands and that she could help my dream come to life. She has a strong attention to detail and is very thorough, which is something that was super important to me when picking a florist. She is also warm, kindhearted and someone that I wanted to surround myself with on my special day. She made everything feel so special and really made me feel like a bride. The flowers were gorgeous and everything I could have hoped for. I was so overjoyed with how everything turned out and got so many compliments from my wedding guests. Thank you Dorothy and La Jolla Florist! I highly recommend them for weddings, events or any occasion where you need top notch flowers!

    I contacted Dorthy to do flowers for my last-minute wedding. I emailed her some photos of what I liked for my bouquet and my husband's boutonniere and we had a phonecall to go over which elements of each I wanted to incorporate. To say she nailed it would be an understatement. Everything came out absolutely beautiful, better than I had imagined! Delivery to the hotel was right on time as well. It was pricey, but worth every penny!

    My birthday flowers

    My best friend ordered flowers here for my birthday. Ardi created the most beautiful arrangement and had them delivered well after they were closed to my hotel in Mission Valley. I felt terrible cause I was unable to tip them, so I felt the least I could do was write a review for them to show my gratitude for not just creating a beautiful arrangement but for sacrificing their evening and making a late delivery. Thanks again for making this happen!!!

    I received a gorgeous Mother's Day arrangement from La Jolla Florist, one of the nicest I've ever gotten (and much prettier and longer lasting than one from another local florist which cost way more). I had walked by this shop a number of times and seen some of their arrangements, so I was delighted to get one. It's now 6 days and it still looks fabulous; the roses are huge and still opening. This will be our go-to florist from now on!

    See all

    I ordered from here for the first time for my Mom for Mother's Day, they turned out so beautiful!…read moreThe delivery went great and I was really impressed by how the flowers turned out. Will definitely use again.

    Everything until day of delivery was great. Website was easy to navigate as well. 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.
