Sunshine Florist

There is no way to get a hold of these people. The number listed goes straight to voicemail — which hasn’t even been set up! I called all day yesterday and started again at their supposed 9AM opening this morning — NOTHING. This place has the WORST customer service EVER. Dees this place even exist? I have an order confirmation but nothing has been delivered.

******Buyer beware!!!****** I ordered a bouquet for my mother’s birthday, and spent $ 80. The bouquet that was sent is AWFUL! It looks like a toddler picked a couple flowers out of a garden and threw them into a vase. They are AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL. I am shocked and saddened that this business takes people’s money and delivers such a despicable product. SHAME ON YOU Sunshine Florist. CROOKS! There is NOTHING about your business that is remotely redeeming.

I ordered flowers online to be delivered to my mom’s workplace for her bday. I paid $ 70 (which included delivery) but the flowers were very mediocre for the price. for $ 70 it’s a small bouquet full of cheap flowers and only 4 white roses. I specifically picked this one from the website because it had hydrangeas in it (moms favorite), they put one TINY bunch of hydrangea in there that is only visible from one angle, and it died and withered within one day. The other flowers are dying pretty quicker than flowers usually do. They did not bring flower food with the delivery.
The arrangement looks fine but it’s not worth more than $ 20-​$ 25.
I would not buy from them again because they overcharge for mediocre arrangements that are full of cheap flowers and only have a few expensive flowers in them. $ 70!!! I posted a pic, it’s the one in the purple vase.

My fiancé sent me valentine’s day flowers two days early so I could enjoy them at work before the weekend and to cheer me up after a very rough week of work and wedding planning. The flowers are small and cute, and although they are nicely arranged, they aren’t the usual spectacular flowers he sends — so much so that a couple of coworkers actually commented on the size of the arrangement. I texted him a picture of the flowers and thanked him and he was surprised at how small the arrangement was when he ordered and paid for a large arrangement. I understand mix ups happen during Valentine’s day but this is two days before! They did offer him $ 20 back (hence the 2 stars), but he clearly should have gotten much more money back, or even better, they should have offered to send the flowers he actually ordered and paid for. Based on the other reviews on here, looks like they don’t really care about customer service or repeat customers.

I used Sunshine Florist for my wedding in November, 2011. I had a great experience working with Tenny and Sunshine Florist. Tenny worked hard to meet my needs and my budget and I was very pleased with the arrangements, bouquets and boutonnieres that showed up at my wedding. She drove to Northridge to meet with my coordinator at my venue to get ideas and a visual for how things would look on the wedding day. She called me various times throughout the planning process to insure we were both on the same page. In addition, Tenny offered us suggestions and ideas to enhance our wedding and experience, but was very understanding and not pushy at all. We had a wonderful experience working with Sunshine Florist and would recommend their business to everyone and anyone.

When they didn’t deliver my mother’s bromeliad on the assigned day, I thought the worst. But then they delivered on Mother’s Day, with a hand-​transcribed note, for no extra fee. Nice!

Horrible! Horrible! Horrible! I was searching for a florist on Unilocal to make & deliver a special arrangement for a funeral. After reading the reviews & speaking with Henry, I decided to use Sunshine Florist. He even complained about some of the negative reviews… I really should’ve known better. I explained that I wanted a white flower arrangement for a FUNERAL SERVICE. He assured me that my arrangement would be «spectacular» not only because I found them on Unilocal but also because they were receiving a fresh shipment that afternoon.
We arrived at the funeral the following day & I was absolutely appalled & furious at the so-​called «spectacular» arrangement that Henry at Sunshine Florist had sent (see attached picture). The flowers he used were totally sub-​par & cheap, the vase was something you’d find at the 99 cent store (2 for 1) & to top it all off the arrangement was colorful! I told him I wanted white flowers for a funeral, he even wrote the condolence card! He charged me $ 150 for an arrangement that was worth maybe $ 50. I wouldn’t have even looked twice at this ridiculous arrangement if I saw it outside. The grocery store’s flower section is FAR superior.
If you’re looking for an uncreative arrangement with cheap flowers & want to get ripped off & pissed off then this is your place. No wonder they have so many negative reviews. They don’t even deserve 1 star!
PS-​Henry, I know you read these reviews & you need to refund me.

Unbelievably RUDE! My husband spent over $ 100 to send me roses and chocolate for our 10^th Anniversary and when they were delivered to my place of work (in the back of a Toyota Prius) they were not in great shape. The greenery around the roses was wilted and the roses were already all open with some tears on the outer petals. The box of chocolate looked like it had been around for a while and I did not even open it. I called to let the florist know about the condition of the gift I received and was yelled at by the owner. She accused me of trying to cheat/​«swindle» her and that there was no issue. Finally she said that she was going to have them picked up, not replace them and not rescind the charge because they had already been delivered. SO… now I don’t have roses or chocolate and I still have over a $ 100.00 charge on my credit card. Needless to say, I will be filing a dispute with my credit card company.

An excellent Florist is rare and very hard to find. Sunshine Florist and their staff are AMAZING! Their talent in creating gorgeous artistic arrangements is astounding! Tenny the owner is very passionate about her customers and her work, which is obvious in each and every arrangement she creates. I have been the lucky recipient of the work of this Florist for almost 4 years now and every arrangement has been SPECTACULAR to say the least! If you are looking for amazing work, this is the Florist that will make that happen!!! Thank You

I am grateful I found Sunshine Florist for my wedding, they not only did the perfect job with what I consider the most beautiful arrangements, they had them right on schedule even when I came into the shop with very little previous time. Also they were extremely friendly to work on a sunday early morning to give us all the flowers fresh for the event. Thank you for your lovely work.

We actually stumbled across Sunshine Florist as we were planning our wedding back in 2009. At the time, they had another location in San Gabriel right across from the Hilton, so we worked with them out of that location.
I’m glad we found them, because all the florists we had met with either couldn’t speak English (Chinese only), or charged us an arm and a leg for what we wanted. They were conveniently located right across the street from where our wedding reception would be taking place, so they did not charge us for delivery.
We ordered just the top arrangements for our centerpieces and the head table arrangement, because we had already bought the vases, lights, and accessories for the centerpieces. I gave her a picture of what we were looking for and how big of an arrangement we had wanted, and also described to her how to arrange the entire centerpiece for us, which she gladly did for us even though she didn’t have to (since we only ordered the top arrangement).
I have to admit, I was ecstatic when I walked into my reception hall. Everything was already arranged and on the tables, arranged in the way I had expected. She even gave me an extra bouquet in a smaller version of my vase for the registration table as a gift, with a super sweet note in it! It absolutely made me happy and relieved as a bride — not having to worry about all the little things since I was my own wedding planner. Most places would keep the extra materials that weren’t used for the event, but she had everything packed and ready for me to pick up after my wedding, which definitely showed her honesty and great service.
Definitely recommend this place to any of my friends out there. Super professional, friendly, and delivers superb service!

Let me just start out by saying, that I rarely ever take the time to review businesses. However, the woman I talked to had the worst attitude ever and it was hard for me to believe that anyone could talk to a client like that. I was looking to get an arrangement for next week and I spoke with Penny (I think that’s what she said her name was), about what she could do with my budget. I told her that I had previously gotten a beautiful arrangement from Cosentino’s and I asked her around how much a similar arrangement would run for or what she would be able to do with my budget (since Cosentino’s does not deliver to my area). I then asked her if I could send her the picture, to give her an idea of what I was looking for.
After I sent it, this is how the conversation went. I have no idea why she got so offended.
Her: «I do not appreciate your sending me pictures from other florists.»
Me: «I wasn’t asking you to do exactly the same arrangement, I just wanted to give you an idea of what I was looking for.»
Her: «You are trying to test me saying that you got it for $ 75.»
Me: «They had a special offer when I got them, that’s why I got a really good price. I am not expecting you to offer me the same price. I am just looking for a florist in my area since they do not deliver here.»
Her: «If you like their arrangement, you can buy it from them. You can take your business elsewhere. I have the right to refuse anyone service.»
Me: «I am not sure what I said to insult you. I was just trying to give you an idea of what I was looking for.»
Her: «I do not have time to argue with you. I am very busy.» [Hangs up the phone]

THE WORST ATTITUDE EVER! SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE HECK?!!
I bought a bouquet of roses and a vase from Downtown LA but wasn’t quite satisfied with it so, on my way home, I stopped at Sunshine Florist to see if they can spruce it up a bit. After explaining the situation, I was immediately berated by the owner:
Her: «You go to Downtown to get cheap flowers, then you come here to get free service?!»
Me: «No, not free. I will pay – «
Her: «Would YOU buy a steak from a market, then take it to a restaurant and tell them to cook it?! WOULD YOU?!!»
Me: «Of course not, but – «
Her: «YOU GO TO DOWNTOWN AND PAY CHEAP, SO YOU GET CHEAP!!»
Me: «Okay, but all I need – «
Her: «WE ARE A FULL SERVICE FLORIST! WE DO – «
I tried making eye contact with other employees, but they were clearly embarrassed– so I didn’t even bother listening at that point. I mean, sure, I wasn’t going to buy any roses from them, but all I wanted was some stupid leaves to cover the vase or whatever, something I would have easily paid $ 20 for. But not only did they lose out on a quick $ 20, they also lost me as a customer. I will NEVER use them in the future– and I suggest you don’t either. Seriously, what the heck.
