this place was nirvana for me. absolutely gorgeous, fresh, and usual flowers! and the owner took the time out of his schedule to make me a extraordinary custom arrangement! and i mean EXTRAORDINARY arrangement with a king protea (!!!) and roses and flowering branches! i hesitate leaving this review. because now EVERYONE is going to discover this hidden gem of a joint and there will be a line down the block! but that's a good thing so i must share this place with everyone. and, the truth is, i'd stand in a long line if necessary because it would be worth it. IF YOU SEEK THE UNUSUAL, THE UNIQUE, OR THE SPECTACULAR, YOU HAVE FOUND IT! plus, the people who work there are very kind and welcoming. i hope you enjoy this place as much as i did. read more

Super nice florist! Beautiful space! Made me an arrangement on the spot and it was exactly what I was looking for -- what a gem hidden in Venice! read more

Came in looking for a house warming gift for a friend nearby. It's a cool space with beautiful vases. The florist was out when I arrive, but they had some fantastic orchids and some pre-made bouquets with a really unique rustic vibe. Bought a vase and an arrangement. Super lovely experience. Lily said they also do community events in their space. Just awesome vibes and a great business read more

Update: Spencer has reached out to make amends and says that business has been growing and this company is better able to manage things! We'll see how my next order goes with them. Will update y'all after the delivery! read more

The Unlikely Florist - Custom necklace for graduation. Pretty, but see review as well - Florists Near Me - Venice, California

NAILED IT!! We had The Unlikely Florist do all of the flowers for our magical wedding and it was a HIT! Everyone talked about the flowers and how unique they were. We got married in the middle of nowhere so this was no small task. A.) getting there and getting the flowers there and B.) Having the flowers stand out among acres and acres of mother nature. We also had unexpected 50mph winds and somehow the flowers all survived. We still don't know how. It was amazing! 5 stars isn't really enough. We would use The Unlikely Florist again in a heartbeat! read more

So pleased! A quick yelp search in my grandmas neighborhood led me to The Unlikely Florist. Not being able to be with her on her birthday, we still wanted to do what we could from San Diego. They were able to accommodate us with a beautiful arrangement and same day delivery. Highly recommended..Thank you so much! read more

The Unlikely Florist - Nanas Birthday arrangement - Florists Near Me - Venice, California

Wanting something special for my wife's birthday, I thought this florist looked great. Filled out order and included a message from my kids and me and I guess the message did not go through. Rather than call me to ask if there was a card, they put a Post it with my wife's name on a $200 arrangement of flowers. Common sense dictates that every floral arrangement has information who the sender is, this time, common sense did not prevail. Rather than try to make it right, Kelly said "This ones on me. You can come to the store to write out a card". This was her solution. Pass on The Unlikely Florist unless you want your flowers sent by a secret admirer. read more

Love the flowers and the people. Got mine bouquet today which brighten my day in times like today read more

Going out on a limb with my 5 star review after the 2 reviews below. All in all flowers arrived on the day they should and the flowers were beautiful and my friend received lots of compliments and she was happy. I had put 11am on the delivery and they arrived 2:30 after I had reached out explaining the constraints. It wasn't the end of the world but I would say utilize the number on this Yelp page and get in touch sooner than later if you're sending a time sensitive delivery. He was responsive, easy to text and helpful. I think if I had reached out earlier in the day they would have been on time, but this number isn't on the website. All in all beautiful flowers, obviously a small home grown business so just use the phone number. Thanks! read more

The best birthday present and most beautiful arrangement! Love everything about it and all the unique flowers. Reused the eucalyptus for a flower crown! Great service and delivery as well :) read more

Stopped by The Unlikely Florist today looking for dried and fresh flowers to arrange on my table for Thanksgiving. They were super helpful! I told Spencer how much I wanted to spend, my vision/idea & he helped me put it all together! I will post photos tomorrow and will definitely be back for future unique floral arrangements! read more

Spencer made my day today creating a custom Valentine's Day gift for my wife. What a cool spot and superb service. Completely chill spot and will be back again soon. Thank you! read more

Through the subscription service, I get fresh flowers in a beautifully designed arrangement once a month delivered to my door. My family always enjoys receiving the surprise. Like a new piece of art every month, often reflective of the changing seasons. It's a joy to see Spencer and his team of florists rolling in the classic VW van mobile pop-up shop. Stylish bouquets, smell of fresh cut flowers, west coast jazz in stereo, warm smiles... They have a work space in Venice and host parties celebrating art, film, fashion, design... Awesome vibe. There, the team also recycles your flowers and turns them into dried arrangements. Spencer is a solid guy and personally stands behind his growing flower business. I have nothing but praise for the flowers, service, and community. read more

I received the most beautiful arrangement for my birthday from my mother who ordered from out of town. It was hand delivered to my front door promptly and with care. I'll definitely be using Unlikely Florist for all my future needs! read more

I was calling from New York City to get a birthday bouquet for my step daughter who lives in Venice Beach. I had nothing but positive things to say about my experience. They were prompt and helpful and got the flowers delivered right away. And my stepdaughter could not be happier with the arrangement she said the flowers were beautiful. read more

Spencer was so thoughtful and helpful! I showed up to the studio to get a small arrangement and he was able to quickly do one for me even though he was incredibly busy and in-person, drop-in arrangements isn't something they really do. The studio is amazing and oozes Venice vibes. Will definitely come back for an floral needs I have in the future. read more

I don't live in LA, but am loving the shipping option they have now and have used it several times. Each time, the recipient has loved the arrangement and said the flowers are fresh and beautiful and have lasted 2 or 3 weeks. Very pleased each time and will continue to use in the future! read more

This place is awesome!! Their flowers are super unique and the arrangement they threw together was perfect. Off the beaten path - this shop is a gem and everyone there was super friendly to me and my friend. read more

I was on a business trip in NYC and needed to get some flowers delivered in Venice CA. Called the office, but they sent me to their online store to pick the arrangement and check out. They shot me an email confirmation right away, and called to confirm spelling of my wife's name before sending out for delivery. It is great to see a local business using online ordering, and actually delivering great customer service. (I get worried that online orders get loaded into a queue and get less attention than call in business). Will use again! read more

Just happened upon this adorable florist shop while searching for our daughter's birthday gift. We live on the East coast so were unfamiliar with LA options... Claire asked about our daughter and her interests and designed the Perfect bouquet for her! She even included exactly what we wanted to say in a sweet card. Weeks later the flowers were Still fresh and lovely! Claire went above and beyond, and we are very appreciative of her skills as well as her effort to match the gift to our daughter's personality. You simply won't be anything but Pleased if you choose to let The Unlikely Florist send your love... and a bouquet... to someone about whom you care. Thanks Claire. read more

The Unlikely Florist has been delivering flowers to us every month for seven months now. The visual impact is fantastic, often with aromatic scents that add to the whole experience. We couldn't be happier with our regular gorgeous bouquet. Not only have the flowers been superbly put together but they always have really interesting foliage. It lasts for ages. They deliver when they say they will and leave the flowers somewhere sensible if we're not in to receive them. Highly recommend for flowers that excite and delight. read more

Absolutely positively stunning arrangements. Unlike anything I've seen previously. They last two weeks with good care. Unique interesting choices well-arranged. The arrangement develops evolves and changes each day. A truly remarkable florist and service. Sign up for regular Delivery. You deserve it. We all should try and treat ourselves to this kind of beauty of we're lucky enough to be able. Words elude me in trying to share my joy with them. Grateful customer. read more

the arrangement was unique and beautiful and they bent over backwards to accommodate our needs. thank you
