    Ahhh I struggle posting this review but felt inclined to at least share my experience to help some bride & groom. I'll say all the pros first and end with my recommendation. If it's TLTR for you then skip? Pro: The staff has been absolutely amazing and super helpful! They're truly a gem and if you were considering flower preservation, I wouldn't look elsewhere. They are easily one of favorite wedding vendors I've worked it. They were the inspiration to my wedding bouquet and took the time to jot down all the flowers' name for my florist. The packaging was also really special! So much thoughtfulness and love went into the packaging (they arrived in prestige perfect condition)! Cons: Ok here we go, the first being, perhaps keep your expectations low..er if you were hoping for your flowers to be white like most of their SMS photos. I KNOW in the FAQ it said white flowers all dry a little different- some white, as is, cream, yellow, or brown. I just didn't think ALL of my flowers would be this yellow. I think having order the larger size, 10x10, its much more obvious than my ring holder. Honestly, I'm not as excited to have it decorated around the house because of how disappointed I got opening it. My wedding bouquet was so dreamy, it makes me sad it almost doesn't look like it anymore. Lastly, a little weird but on their FAQ it said minimum 8wks and I reached out week 16 asking for an update. The next day they sent a photo of my pieces (see attached) and shipped out my order so I'm wondering if they forgot to send it out. My recommendation is save your money by getting the smaller pieces and call it a day. I love my ring holder so for a total of $765 (including $115 shipping), I suppose that paid for my ring holder size of happiness lol. The 10x10 was a mistake for me and feel bad it'll just hang out somewhere in storage. If you were my friend, I'd recommend looking at my 10x10 and decide if you're really ok with it then go for it

    The team at MBP was amazing to work with. I was initially unsure about preserving my bridal bouquet just with the stress of wedding planning, but after my Grandma's stroke three days before my wedding, I realized how much it would mean to me. Flowers were something she loved and we bonded over, and the day after my wedding, I reached out to MBP on short notice to see if they could help. They went above and beyond to make it happen, and I was able to make a last-minute shipment from Seattle to Hawaii. When we received the preserved pieces, I had tears in my eyes. They are stunning and hold so much meaning for us--not just as a reminder of our special day, but also of our last moments with my Grandma. These keepsakes are something we'll cherish forever. The packaging was beautiful and you could tell they put a lot of care into each order. Thank you, MBP, for your care and attention to detail. We love our items so much!

    Modern Bouquet Preservation was so fantastic to work with for my wedding last year in Oahu, it was easy to book my drop-off time for the flowers and the team was so communicative through the whole process. I love looking at my pieces every day and it was such a great investment.

    Very overdue review for my beautifully preserved flowers. I had my wedding on 2/19/22 on Oahu and received my pieces on 4/19/22. My flowers were dropped off to MBP the day after my wedding and the MBP were in constant communication the entire time until my pieces were delivered. I love the assortment of pieces to choose from and I was able to get some for me and my husband to keep as well as tinier pieces to give as gifts. The MBP team was very helpful when I was deciding what flowers to ask my florist. The hexagon piece included my bouquet and the flowers preserved very well. The long piece included my haku lei and my husband's maile lei intertwining and is honestly my favorite piece because of the symbolism. I got multiple sets of macarons and ornaments as keepsakes for ourselves and thank you gifts for our parents, grandparents, and wedding party. All items were packed with care and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

    My wedding bouquet turned out great!! I really wanted to preserve it as I eloped and didn't really have anything sentimental to keep. I reached out 2 months before my wedding date and used the easy calendar to book with the initial $100 deposit for the Alexandre box version. She had great instructions of how to ship the bouquet overnight which oof was expensive as expected to Hawaii. She also sent a proof photo of how it would look preserved in case I wanted to change it which is appreciated. Btw I don't think white roses preserve well as they get damaged so easily and can't really be avoided which sucks. Needless to say it all went well and it arrived beautifully and loved the special keychain with my initial!

    Long overdue review for the Modern Bouquet preservation team. The booking process is simple, you submit a deposit and select a date within a few days of your wedding. I selected a date after my wedding, since my date wasn't available. Kristen and her team reached out immediately asking for a drop off timeframe, to make sure someone was there to accept my bouquet, also instructions on how to keep my flowers fresh until drop off and a design sheet. I ended up ordering - the abeille - Raphael - forever intwined - key chain I wanted to ensure my feathered friends could be apart of this huge life milestone(particularly sunni who had passed away), so I asked Kristine if I could also preserve some of their feathers!! :) she was more than happy to! I Dropped off my bouquet after my ceremony and photos. That was simple and straightforward! My coordinator forgot my lei, so I opted to do use flowers instead of lei. Kristen contacted about a month later when my flowers had finished drying to share mock up and get my approval!! I was blown away with how elegant the mock ups were. I received my order about two months after drop off, the keepsakes arrived safely and the package design was also so beautiful! Along with some a thoughtful surprise! The keychains used flower bites from my bouquet!! :) highly recommend!

    Would highly recommend purchasing the review option as I would've personally gone with a different set of flowers to be preserved. The flowers are droopy - wish they would've put more into care to have them sit straight.

    I don't understand how people can be so talented. Kristen and her team are amazing and should be trusted with all flower preservations. Other than pictures, these flower preservations is what will remind you of your wedding day. The MBP team is so sweet and you would not regret it making this choice. Along with my items, they also made me a keychain with my first initial. How cute and thoughtful!

    Amazing! The process was easy to navigate and we have a beautiful keepsake. Highly recommend using Kristin and her team.

    In the months leading up to my wedding I stumbled on someone preserving their wedding bouquet and I absolutely fell in love with the idea. I was even more thrilled that I was able to find Modern Bouquet Preservation and they were actually local! I contact Kristen immediately and honestly couldn't be more satisfied. Kristen is so easy to work with from the minute I reserved my date to the minute I picked up the final product. I loved that Kristen kept me updated throughout the entire process and even texted me a picture of the mock up before she set it in the resin. Having a COVID wedding there were a lot of challenges and disappointments but I will say working with Kristen and getting my bouquet preserved was not one of them. My only regret was not ordering more! Kristen, thank you sooo much! I absolutely love your work and I love that I get to keep my wedding flowers forever!

Thank you, Twinsie "Auntie" Nadine C., for showing me love and introducing me to tuberose. I am a HUGE fan of tuberose now! I was thoughtfully blessed with some leis here and wow do I feel loved! Gorgeous, fragrant, and they lasted the whole trip with a light spritz of water in a bag and popped into the refrigerator. I even got to check the place out while we were leaving Chinatown. It's a cozy shop and you can tell they are very much well loved. What else can be said? Come here and get all your leis here. Nothing like getting lei'd by Cindy. This place is a daffodil-ight!

My father brought a huge corporate account to Cindys, which they made A LOT of money from. He had a personal relationship with the owners, which kept us loyal for decades. After my father passed, the company cut tie with Cindy's. I was devastated and didn't understand why. Cindy's always gave us the best service. Recently I found out why relations were cut. Cindy's has really changed and no longer provides the great customer service they once did. I placed a very important order for an event on the mainland to be shipped out and arrive a day before the event. I placed the order over a month in advance and was promised it would be just fine and well taken care of. Well, when the week of the event came, I called every day, multiple times a day, just to confirm everything. They won't answer their phones. I sent emails and messages through their website. Those also went unanswered. I even went to the store in person before work at 6am, nut it wasn't open yet. I had no way of getting in touch with them and wondered if they had shut down. I had to go on the faith that they have always provided us stellar service in the past. I was so wrong. Cindy's completely forgot to send my order at all, and left me without anything, the day before the event. The amount of stress I went through trying to find a florist on the mainland to provide lei was insane. Cindy's finally answered my many messages the day before. They said they could try to overnight my order that they forgot, but there were no promises it would get there on time, since the event was on a Saturday. I still have not been sent a receipt from them, which I asked for multiple times, or confirmation of the mailing. The lei did go, and my credit card got a huge charge, but without the receipt, I don't even know what I paid them for. And really, after all they put us through, they should have comped the order. My dad would be rolling in his grave to know how far downhill the company that he loved to support has gone. As for me, I will be taking my business elsewhere. I do truly hope they can get it together and grow back into the great company they once were.

When he asked which was which price he was told the ones he bought would be in the $4 size. They charge by the inch for these. Flowers aren't marked as to what color they are nor sizes. When he asked if they would be alright in the car the saleswoman said they'd be okay but when they wrapped them she'd add a wet paper towel to the stems. He went to the register and asked for this to be done to be told NO they don't do that but he could buy a water tube for each flower he's buying for .25 cents each. My husband said no that's okay. Husband was buying a vase and the man said he could give him some water in the vase. So now my flowers are $5 each, unwrapped in a vase to be transported home. The one flower ended up split somehow? Edit *The man flattened the flower to measure it and suspect this is where it split. Some sales people just seem to not be interested in you unless you're making a big purchase. . I know this may feel a bit harsh for this ONE flower But I've had this experience with them before and just tired of the attitude some salespeople give off.

Located on the corner of 3rd Avenue and Waialae Avenue, across from Chaminade University/Saint Louis School, Patty's Floral Designs is a local business that has been around for decades! The quality is outstanding! I looked at Patty's Instagram posts and was blown away by the colors, varieties, and beauty of her creations! She has a good eye and is very professional! I just had to meet her after passing by the shop all of these years! We were picking up lunch from the restaurant next door. The free, small, shared parking lot is much appreciated! I went inside initially for the air-conditioning. Then, I met Patty - she is so sweet! She showed me a lei po'o (crown of flowers for the head) that she just finished... ooh! It holds its shape because she winds the flowers around a wire! Smart! I've read reviews by my friends, Kelly K., Paul M., Nicole, Holly, Ric C., and Lyn L. They were all happy with Patty's work. I'll come here next when I need a bouquet or two!
