Came to Maivie for the first time today with some girlfriends and we had such an incredible time. All the women who work there were such great teachers and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. It's good to note you need to book a time online. The class is only $45 and then you pay separately for the frame -- they have different sizes and finishes. When you check in, you'll sign a form and then watch an instructional video on how to make the piece. After that, you can get your tweezers, tray and start choosing the dried flowers you'd like to use. They also have premium flowers that range from around $3 - $5 if you want something extra special. This is truly a one of a kind experience, and while some may say it's expensive, it would be even more to buy in a store. Plus, you're paying for the instruction, memories, materials and art that lasts a lifetime! read more

Went to a three hour pressed flower art workshop. It was so fun for our group! We thought the flowers and frames were really great quality. A perfect event for a team building or family event. There were a few kids in the class that looked like they were having fun. The instructions were very clear, and the timing was perfect. The instructors leading the class were helpful for guiding the design if asked. I do think they could take a bit more time to frame at the end so everything dries a bit further. It's in a big mall so plenty to do while we wait for that. Would do again! read more

SUCH a fun spot!! Stopped in for a team bonding activity and it was such a hit with our group. Nessa did such a great job as our instructor! The spot is super cute, organized, and clean. We loved how there were plenty of photo opps and spots for cute mirror selfies. While the activity may seem pricey upon booking, you definitely get your money's worth with the three hour session, frame + glass, unlimited base flowers (there are larger flowers available for an additional cost), and experience! Upon arrival, Nessa was super bubbly and excited to meet/teach the group. I liked how she played a clear and easy to understand video at the beginning of our session showing us what to expect, disclaimers, rules, and directions. Throughout the whole process she was always available to help, was checking on flowers to refill, and was walking around to check in and hype us up. We didn't think we would need three hours but we ended up staying for the majority of the allotted time. Highly recommend Maivie and hoping to come back again soon! read more

Location is very easy to get to. As someone who is not familiar with Irvine Spectrum it was a quick parking by Brio Italian restaurant & a quick walk to the shop!! We did arrive early as requested. The girls were very nice, Mia and Julia. The event was full so we either had to hang our purses on the chair or leave on the floor (which is a no no for me, that's bad luck). They did offer to have our items be placed on a couch by the door & drinks at a little table with said couch. My advice for anyone else, bring less. I always have my purse with me and a purse holder clip. The vibes were great. I may have enjoyed one of the employees vibe more than the other employee vibe. The flowers and set up were beautiful. So many choices to select from. The ladies were helpful on what we could choose from. Apparently there is a high demand for the arch frame and the lettering as well which were out of stock. I chose a smaller square frame as I wanted the arch frame but they didn't have any. So did my girlfriend who wanted the arch frame, she chose a smaller square frame like mine. My other girlfriend wanted the big letter with the black, but I guess it wasn't explained correctly and it was just the letter and nothing covering the letter, to make the flowers boldly stand out. She ended up switching her frame to the same as ours. Our birthday girl was happy with what she chose and had her options available that she wanted. After we all checked in, my group and the others, we all had to sign a form digitally. We then watched an instructional video on how to make our beautiful pieces! Was a short video and I did get a bit distracted. I wish I had started gluing before creating my image I had in my head. Once I started moving flowers and gluing, it just became a bit of a mess. I ended up just overwhelming my vision I had started with. All my girlfriends came out so beautiful!! We all loved our flower art. It was a very wonderful experience to have with my girlfriends and would recommend. I do have to say, it was pricy in my opinion. I understand the cost and supplies. I had a couple of friends ask as I had posted videos and photos. I did have to tell them it was a pricy but fun experience. I did end up using some of the premium flowers, which I think I chose some of the $3.00 flowers. Overall for the $45.00 class, the frame cost, the premium flowers at $3.00 each and the tip, my cost was $120.00. I can absolutely recommend but would do this for special events. read more

So much fun and relaxing. Perfect to do on your day off with friends! Amanda was so helpful and directed you exactly how to create a spectacular piece of art to take home. read more

Best day ever! Ava was our consultant. Made me feel comfortable, confident and happy with everything I chose in my design! A lot is happening in my life right now, and feeling heard and excited about letting go and being creative is the best! And the big reveal Ava created with everyone's art was fantastic! Literally bought me to tears! My friend Amber and I walked around for about 30 minutes showing everyone our art and telling all that complemented to head over to Maivie! read more

pay an absorbent amount of money to glue dead flowers to a canvas while sitting on hard chairs, this is your dream spot. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a wall of dried blooms screaming "Live, Laugh, expensive"... like stepping into the Pinterest board of someone named Madison who only drinks champagne at brunch. The flower-arranging experience itself? Imagine paying luxury-spa prices to play with crushed petals and be gently "oohed and awed" like nobody here is a real crafter. You'll leave with a framed bouquet of your own personal floral crisis -- perfect for hanging quietly in a closet. Bonus points for the full-length mirror that lets you reflect on your financial decisions of $120. We are not cheap. 7/10 would recommend to anyone trying to prove they have disposable income and a color palette. read more

Our experience today was wonderful! Ness was super kind and helpful and really sweet. Luke was knowledgeable and kind and both were very engaging and gave us lots of tips and tricks. The environment is beautiful, the quality of the materials is top tier (museum quality glass is offered as an option!) and the whole experience was so lovely! We had a great time and we really appreciated the quality of the materials. We didn't feel rushed like other creative classes we've done. We loved that we could use as many or as little flowers as we wanted. The environment was very inclusive and I saw a lot of diversity in different people including my daughter and I. I love that the frames we made are actually something we are going to display in our homes, not tuck away in a closet somewhere or "finish at home" like some other classes who send you home with an unfinished product. I will definitely be coming back with my girlfriends! read more

I really wanted to love this experience. The concept of decorating flowers in frames with a group of friends at Maive is beautiful, and the space itself is aesthetically pleasing. However, the customer service--especially from a staff member named Ness--left a lot to be desired. Throughout our time there, Ness was consistently dismissive. Whenever I asked a question, she would redirect me to a video rather than engaging or offering any personal guidance. At one point, she even rolled her eyes and exchanged looks with another staff member in a way that felt unkind and unprofessional. While she smiled and used polite language, her body language and energy said otherwise--it came across as disingenuous. What made things more uncomfortable was being asked for a tip--twice--despite the experience already being paid for in full. It felt pushy and awkward, especially given the lack of warmth or support. Maive is a new business, and I believe in supporting creative, local experiences. But customer service matters. A welcoming attitude and genuine engagement go a long way. I hope they take this feedback seriously--because the concept has potential, but the current delivery undermines it. read more

Highly recommend the experience at Maivie! We had seen their shop in Salt Lake City when we were visiting last year and I had wished they had something similar in California. I found out they opened up in OC and immediately booked even though I live about an hour away. So happy we went because it was so much fun!! My husband came with me and he had only planned to be there for support but ended up LOVING it himself! We walked away with two floral frames we now love hanging in our home and started pressing our own flowers just for fun. The frames are a bit pricey so be prepared to pay a good amount but it's honestly the experience. If you love flowers like I do, you'll love this workshop! read more

A great arts and craft work shop. It is a little on the pricier end, but for what it is it seems fair. It will take about 2-3 hrs to finish depending on what you choose. The area is clean and well organized. The staff here are friendly and helpful. read more

I took my mom and sister here for a late Mother's Day and we had a wonderful time! We went Tuesday at 2pm so it was just us and two other girls. The girl who helped us out was named Lauren and she was fantastic! Amazing customer service, friendly and chatty, and super helpful throughout the whole process. It is a bit pricey but you can make it out at just around 100$ and still have a great time. It's super nice that you have 3 hours and aren't limited to the flowers used. I would definitely recommend! Thank you again Lauren!! read more

Honestly feel like the establishment and the workshop/classes are too pricey. My gf thought the place looked cute but when we walked by to take a look around in person, the whole environment didn't feel very inclusive. Where's the diversity? It's a bummer because my girlfriend and I love having mini dates at the Spectrum. I also don't like how we're all made to sit at long tables. It's not very ideal for more private date nights, like they advertise. Save your money! read more
