Arlene & her team are awesome! They do beautiful work, are friendly, reliable & made the process to order/pick up a breeze. I ordered a Haku/ Lei Po'o for my friend 2 weeks in advance. When I called I didn't know which flowers/ colors to choose, but Arlene is a pro & was able to work with my basic idea of multi colors, while using local plants to keep the haku traditional. Arlene nailed it! She used these beautiful unique golden colored orchids from her farm with a few other flowers to add a pop of color & braided in the traditional Ti leaves. Just have to say we loved it! The quality is superb & survived the winds on our sailing trip up the Napali coast. This photo of the haku is from the day after sailing & it still looks amazing!

Arlene went above and beyond for us. From taking our inspo photos to adjusting our hakus when there was some miscommunication. She made these two hakus same day and they were absolutely perfect. She was responsive, patient, and we were so happy with the results. Thank you, Blue Orchid!

Brick and mortar store in Koloa. (Had fraud previously with a different company that was just an internet delivery operation and wanted to upcharge me after accepting my order). Blue Orchid was a breath of fresh air. Very professional and reasonable. Delivered my order in a timely fashion and my friend said it was the nicest arrangement she has ever received. Will definitely use them again!

[Wedding Reception Arrangement Experience] We ordered just a couple of low table arrangements to be delivered for the tables at our Reception Dinner - the arrangements turned out beautifully, exactly as I was hoping for and I was glad to gift them to our moms afterwards. We got many comments on how beautiful & bright the arrangements were, and I made sure to tell everyone it had nothing to do with me and everything to do with the florist as I gave no direction or particulars besides something like "low table arrangements, colorful & tropical preferred". We all wish we could have enjoyed looking at the arrangement longer!A few things to note and the reason for 4/5 Stars vs 5/5 would be communication being a little rough; if you're extremely particular or sensitive, I can see how working with this company might not be right for you. I placed our order for 2 arrangements 2.5 months in advance and I almost felt like I was inconveniencing them from the moment the order was placed. I could tell in my brief conversations just how busy they were. I resolved myself to let it be - not check in, not obsess, just let them do their thing. I got a call the day before regarding what time to deliver to the restaurant, and again felt that same feeling of inconveniencing them by having the arrangements be delivered (for a fee).In the end the flowers were there on time, they were gorgeous, I was charged appropriately, and it all worked out! I would order from Blue Orchid again, I was not disappointed and feel that I got the most "bang for my buck".TLDR: The flowers were gorgeous, the communication could have been nicer, price was beyond fair, it all worked out, be chill & give it a try! Oh and follow them on IG!XO a California Bride

Arlene and her team absolutely saved the day for my beach wedding! When our other florist fell through last minute, I came to Blue Orchid in a panic and they dropped everything to help create the most perfect bouquet! Their team is incredibly talented, fun and genuine. They were an absolute treat to work with and I would 100/10 recommend them to anyone looking for floral arrangements, big or small. They have a vast arrangement of flowers and can produce any look you are going for. Very grateful that I found this florist and thank you to the team for creating special moments on our wedding day

Arlene and the Blue Orchid team did the florals for our wedding in Poipu. SO GORGEOUS. I couldn't have asked for more beautiful arrangements and am so glad I chose them to work with. My two notes was that communication was not the greatest during the planning process- I had to do a lot of follow up to nail down the plan. Also the flowers were delivered about an hour late. Kind of a bummer to not have all our photos with the flowers from the start, but I was overjoyed when I saw the delivery. Thank you again, Arlene!

Brides Beware!! (July wedding) We highly DO NOT recommended this florist for weddings. Arlene was almost impossible to communicate with. We sent pictures of what we wanted flowers to look like for my daughter's wedding. (months ahead) We were very detailed. We left message after message trying to get them to confirm all was going well. Never heard back. Needless to say, wedding day flowers were a mess! Wrong colors. Mother of bride and other women's wrist corsages completely wrong flowers and COLOR! Wrong colored flowers for the cake, arch. And the biggest disappointment was the bridal bouquet! It was just ugly. Our wedding planner at the resort landed sending it back hours before the wedding to get it redone. Our stylist was around when this was happening and she commented how many brides are upset with this florist. This is hearsay, but given our experience, it is very understandable. If you want flowers your way for YOUR wedding, do not use this florist. And if you want to talk to this florist before your wedding, DO Not use this florist. I think the excuse "I am just busy" was used over and over.... too busy for your clients??? So, so disappointed. I usually do not write reviews, but hoping I can help a future bride.

I absolutely love this business! I ordered a haku lei for my maternity photos, and she made it perfectly. Not only that, but my flight was late coming into Kauai, and she was so sweet about waiting for me to pick it up. Perfect quality product, but even nicer people! It was also fairly priced.

Arlene was awesome as were the flowers for the party. She saved the day as we needed a large volume and she had them and they were fresh and have lasted 6 days so far. Thanks.
