Last Valentine's Day I received 2 Designer Blooms bouquets. Unfortunately, the bouquet I received did not seem to be at par with your usual standards, as the flowers appeared old and wilted upon arrival. Sadly it did not even last on Valentine's Day. The flowers were delivered on the 13th. We were given old, wilted flowers. Such a shame because they pride themselves as luxury and quality. Packaging might be good but that quality of the flowers is very poor. It is very expensive considering you are only paying for the brand name and packaging. Regardless of the amount of the order, each order should be given importance. I have emailed them. airing my sentiments (with photos) but they have not replied to this date. I truly value this brand and would be saddened to see the quality of your products decline.

I trust this brand because their family who runs this company has been in business since 1993 and they have various branches. They started out focusing on artificial and dried flowers, which they still do very well, but now they are more into fresh imported flowers. The roses they have on display are of very high quality, aligned to the price you pay. The succulents don't last as well in the basement I guess they didn't look that great. Designer Blooms is worth the price you pay.

Thank heavens for gift and flower shops conveniently found near or within hospital grounds. In a…read moresense, they are also a life saver. These shops can avert a potentially embarrassing situation which is you forgetting to bring something for the patient you're visiting. Case in point is Liza's Flowers at Manila Doctors Hospital. This small shop offers different types of flowers, balloons, and stuffed toys that can surely touch the heart of the person you're visiting. I bought a colorful bouquet of fresh flowers for my wife's relative who had just given birth at MaDocs. Initially, I wanted to bring food because, by tradition, that's what most Filipinos would expect. But since I didn't have the time to shop for the perfect food takeaway, I settled for flowers. My gesture was much appreciated by the recipient. But alas, I paid a lot for convenience! The shop also offers personalized t-shirt printing, if you can believe it! Although this service isn't necessarily intended for hospital patients, maybe someday it will become a popular souvenir for loved ones confined in the hospital.

Consequently, I opted to search the internet, as I know Filipinos frequently contribute to Google reviews. In short, my relatives highly recommended Floriade. I am highly satisfied with the delivery of Cocoy Laurel's funeral flowers to Sanantuario de San Antonio Parish. The arrangement received numerous positive comments, and even his cousin contacted me to express their admiration for its beauty at Cocoy's musical celebration farewell. I have attached photographs of the arrangement. Floriade will be my preferred florist for future flower delivery needs.

We gave her a modest budget and a loose vibe--soft pastels, lots of greenery, nothing too fussy--and she turned our simple venue into something straight out of a magazine. The floral arches were breathtaking, mixing fresh blooms with these delicate hanging vines and little fairy lights that lit up perfectly at golden hour. She even surprised us with these gorgeous escort card displays using vintage books and tiny succulents that tied everything together. Super patient with all our last-minute tweaks, always smiling, and her team was so professional on the day. Every guest kept raving about how elegant and personal it looked.

Don't worry, the bouquets come at a good price, unless you're buying them on the eve of Valentine's Day, where the vendors jack up their prices to control the demand. Regardless, it would still be cheaper to get your flowers here than anywhere else in the Metro. Granted, the flower arrangements here are very simple, but they definitely know their stuff. They can take a three stems of a sunflower and arrange it in such a way that will be presentable on Instagram. Some people even buy their wedding flowers here, and they give them to their event stylist to do as they please. The only problem here is parking. They never have ample parking for their patrons, but maybe parking a bit farther will allow one to enjoy the view, while the scent of the flowers fill the air you breathe in.

But if…read moreever I would buy flowers for my wife, I will surely buy from Rustan's Flower Shop located beside the Marketplace by Rustan's and Eric Kayser Patisserie and Boulangerie in Power Plant Mall. Every time I pass by their kiosk, I can't help but gaze at the beautifully arranged orchids, the fresh sunflower, and the colorful mums and daisies. I once asked if they do other flower arrangements and they said they do. In fact, they have beautiful vases on display, too. Aside from flowers, this shop also sells indoor plants and potted orchids. They have different types of cacti that can be used as attractive table centerpieces or decoration. Honestly, the reason why I frequent Rustan's Flower Shop is not at all related to plants and flowers. Rather, my motivations are more related to my conscious effort to do my part -- no matter how small -- in taking care of the environment. This flower shop is where I usually buy Messy Bessy products, locally made home cleaning and personal hygiene stuff that are environment friendly.

However, I had to follow up a few days later after not receiving any order confirmation email. I was then told that my payment had to be 'verified' even though it was confirmed by their payment provider. After it was 'approved' by their finance team, I had to provide my personalisation details for my order, which seems like a pretty inefficient process. I should've been able to provide this at the time of ordering to avoid constant email comms. After not hearing anything for several days again after Christmas, I was told there was it would be delivered 2-10 days only to find out 10 days later that they didn't dispatch my order cos they were out of stock. It has now been a month since I placed my order and I still have not received any delivery or tracking details. If you don't follow up with this company, you won't get any updates on your order. It is truly a disappointing experience and has taken up too much of my time. Gifting should be an easy experience, not a chore. At this point with no update or dispatch, it's looking like it will be another 2-3 weeks at least. Do I really have to wait 2 months for my order?

King Louis in Megamall is a personal favorite of mine. They have a great selection and their prices won't cost you that much. Their prices are higher than those found in Dangwa but at least you don't have to go to Sampaloc. The flowers are beautifully arranged and the staff are helpful. They tell you which ones are the best for you depending on your needs. Like I was surprised when they told me that the frail looking carnations with its soft delicate petals last longer than roses. Apparently, carnations just shrink unlike other flowers whose petals fall off after a few days. Their delivery charges are the cheapest I've seen so far. One hundred fifty pesos for within Mandaluyong City and up to Php350 for areas in Quezon City.

Sure you might have just come in to get a pair of nice pliers or leatherette cord to make accessories with, but you will be bewildered with the wealth of other DIY craft items and supplies and gift items in general. Where else would you be able say "Look at these beads!" and "Check out this dog hair trimmer!" in the same breath? They have mini water fountains, and toy brick sets, and thighmasters and who knows what else. They're like a mini-mall oasis in the middle of Quiapo. The place is somewhat labyrinthine in structure, and while it is fun to look around and see what the next room holds, it does get confusing if you're really looking for something specific. Their payment system is also a bit of a pain--though professional looking, it's a little cumbersome to line up to get your items priced, *and then* have to pay for them in a separate line. Also, there are these curious pulley baskets that have ropes leading to dark holes in the ceiling... You know if you're going to browse through stores in Quiapo and DV and its nearby areas that you're just getting into a trap, because if you think you're window shopping without buying anything, you're kidding yourself. Wellmanson knows this for a fact and has set out to have you do exactly that.

Wellmanson's my favourite store so far and the biggest I've been into among the ones on the street. I've never seen so many craft supplies in one store. Beads of all kind and sizes are found there, prices ranging from very cheap to expensive ones like the swarovski. I went here one Saturday afternoon and it was packed with manangs like me :p They have ready made accessories like necklaces, watches and bracelets... but the best part of the store for me is where they sell the raw materials. Twines, nylons, charms, beads.. the whole nine yards of it. They even have those hooks for earrings and locks for bracelets, of different sizes, color and shapes. They also have those organizer where you can keep your beads inside, pattern boards, tools like pliers. I enjoyed myself too much shopping in there :)
