    Ceremony florals

    Sam is absolutely wonderful to work with. He helped us for our wedding and everything was perfect - pricing, delivery, quality, and selection. Rafael florists works best when you review their selections on the website and go from there. Sam helped me curate some of his signature flowers and make them unique by adding just a touch of blue for me. I didn't see the finished product until the wedding day and I must say I was blown away.

    Dear Rafael Florist: Great job with the bouquet yesterday; the Birthday Girl was delighted. Best, Bill

    My husband has been sending me flowers from Rafael Florist for years. Yesterday I received a bouquet and the vase must have been cracked. It leaked slowly over my Marble Top Table. I called the florist to see what they could do to help me. The woman who called me back was extremely rude from the start. She told me to bring it in. It's a huge arrangement and this wasn't possible. She told me to put it in another vase. I told her I didn't have one big enough. She then started to make it my fault saying that I set it on the counter too hard. When I requested she come and fix it she said she didn't feel the problem was on her end. I said I didn't think we would be doing business with them again and she said that was fine with her. I was so surprised that anyone would run their business like this. Amazing.

    I was delighted with the gorgeous peach roses I ordered for a 11/7/23 birthday in San Anselmo. Delivery was on time and everything was as planned. A+!

    It's hard not being able to celebrate special occasions with friends and family like we used to. Especially during this time, flower deliveries are a lifesaver. Needed to send flowers for some dear friends for their wedding anniversary. They live up in San Rafael while I'm down here in the South Bay. Trusted Rafael Florist to create a beautiful arrangement and deliver it to them safe & sound. I ordered through their website, which was organized and easy to navigate. Prices are listed along with pictures and detailed descriptions of each arrangement. Depending on what you order, prices can be steep. I had a $10 delivery fee, which isn't bad. Looking at my total, I paid a little more than I wanted, but I don't mind if it means helping out local businesses such as this one. Checkout & payment is straight forward from there. They email you an order confirmation ASAP and once flowers are delivered, a delivery confirmation. The process was a breeze. Placed my order two days before delivery date & received a text from my friends saying how much they loved the flowers. Made my day for sure! Rafael Florist didn't disappoint and helped make this anniversary special. Hope to come in and visit this place in person but will definitely order from them again.

    Beautiful. My Special Angel Katrina divided the beautiful bouquet. She placed half in her living room. The other half in her bedroom.

    Rafael florist is wonderful. My special Angel Katrina and I I have never been disappointed. I spoke to the owner in yesterday if it was too late that for delivery late Friday and he said no he would take it himself on his way home. I can't remember his name. Have been a customer longer than I can remember.

    Flowers safely 'delivered' by Rafael Florist

    Dreadful service. Since when does leaving flowers on top of a gatepost at the side of the road within easy reach of passers-by constitute "delivery"? We won't patronize or recommend your business after this.

We were already in Marin and stopped in to purchase one. What should have been a simple, sweet transaction turned uncomfortable very quickly. After requesting just one rose, my husband was met with visible irritation and dismissive behavior. No customer should be made to feel embarrassed or unwelcome for making a modest purchase. Whether someone is buying a single stem or an elaborate arrangement, professionalism and courtesy should be the baseline. This interaction completely changed how I view this business. I will not be returning, and I will not recommend it to friends or family.

I refer any and everyone to them with 1000% confidence that they will be thrilled with anything they get. Mr. Puru and Oliver are just wonderful and you give them a price point, a vision or just an event and let them work their magic. They make it easy and they WOW the recipients every single time. I've had bouquets and centerpieces that I broke down after my party was over and separated into vases, etc. I had beautiful arrangements that continued to last for weeks! I'm attaching photos of the many beautiful centerpieces and arrangements I've received and sent in the past year and they last well beyond any event if you tend to them properly! Not to mention how absolutely stunning they are every single time! Consistently. This is so silly but I always have a hard time with floral arrangements because they feel "generic", if that makes sense? If you want something unique, one of a kind, and that wows your recipient, just go to morning glory or call them. They are absolutely wonderful, they are so creative and accommodating to all our crazy visions. You cannot go wrong with this business. They have the utmost integrity and they clearly take pride in their work. Thank you Morning Glory!! You guys are the best! Helpful hint: if you call during regular business hours and don't get an answer, just wait 30 mins and then try calling back. They're a small shop that creates huge arrangements and they actually have a storefront which means they're probably helping other customers who are physically in store.

    I feel like enough time has passed since my 2024 wedding that I can reflect on this experience…read moreclearly. Angella is Wedgewood's preferred florist and she does produce nice work, but unfortunately she was very difficult to work with. Communication was the biggest issue. It often took a long time for her to respond to emails, and when I suggested a phone call or video call to make sure we were aligned on ideas, my request was ignored. She would only communicate via email, which made the planning process frustrating and stressful. I provided clear photos and descriptions of exactly what I wanted. On the day of the wedding, the draping on my ceremony arch was missing. I only found out as I was walking down the aisle. My cake was also nothing like what I had requested; instead, it had random flowers that were never discussed. I expressed how upset I was afterward, but nothing was done to resolve the situation. She actually said that had I let her know while she was on site, she could have fixed it. I didn't have time to look at the ceremony space nor did I know when she was there. I trusted her to do what was discussed. Her explanation for slow responses was that she was busy, which I understand to a point, but I also feel that vendors shouldn't take on more clients than they can reasonably handle. Looking back, had I known how disappointing this experience would be, I would not have gone with the preferred florist and would have gladly paid more for someone who could offer better communication and attention on such an important day.

The colors, textures, and overall design fit our vision perfectly and brought so much beauty to the day. You could tell every detail was carefully thought out, and the flowers were incredibly fresh.

Highly recommend them for anyone who wants truly gorgeous floral work! Thank you Sadie for being so kind and helping me find my vision
