Wow, Una completely exceeded my expectations! My now husband and I met with Una when we were engaged. We knew she was the florist for us after our first meeting as she was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I had a good feeling about her. Although she admitted that my style was a bit out of the norm from what she normally does (as I love color and strayed away from the common blush/white color scheme), she completely understood the vision and knew how to execute it.
I loved our flowers more than the inspiration I found on Pinterest! I'm so grateful I put my full trust in her as she nailed it and had great advice along the way from her years of experience. Thank you, Una! You made my floral wedding dreams come true! :)

Una was so great to work with. We found her from a friend's recommendation and really appreciated this find. We didn't have any concrete ideas for flowers except that it should be pretty and make the space look nice. We had some vague color scheme and that was enough for Una to do her thing and do an amazing job. Everything was beautiful, and really made our garden wedding pop. Thanks Una!

Una was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding! She was always so kind and supportive in every conversation we had with her (and there were many thanks to three COVID delays). Once we finally made it to the big day, she delivered with an absolutely beautiful chuppah and centerpieces! We came in with a pretty high level vision and she was able to bring that to life beyond what we could have hoped for. Really can't recommend her enough!

The wedding coordinator had referred his here. We signed the contract during pandemic so a year ago. Her taste of flowers seem decent. Only thing is a month before the wedding we had paid for a mock for how the centerpiece would look like. We initially chose white pink lavender etc. Her mock was all white flowers. Looks like our $250 centerpiece has roughly 8-9 flowers in it.
We looked at her with dead seriousness. It looked like a very sad centerpiece for a funeral. She said you know Covid, so there is flower shortage. Lady. The floral contract was signed during Covid. 9 months later she uses the Covid excuse and say prices will be $150 more per centerpiece or else you will have this floral centerpiece since prices have gone up. Covid is not a surprise.
We were essentially held hostage since wedding was only few weeks away. Impossible for us to find another florist. So she end up charging us $3500 additional more than original centerpieces we originally agreed upon, essentially that is not holding promise to original agreement. We end up paying about $10,800 for Flowers. She said most of her clients spend $25,000 on wedding flowers as if she is doing us a favor. Don't think her upcharge of $3500 to keep same centerpiece we signed for was an honest gesture.
We couldn't believe the wedding coordinator did not speak up for us. She just sat there and did say flower shortage is true. Isn't flowers domestic and within the United states? This was a florist referred to us by the wedding planner. I swear there is referral commission between them. Just be mindful when you choose this florist that despite contract, they will not honor and can subject to change to whatever florist owner makes up on the whim. Good luck!

Una is absolutely amazing! She is a genius! She was so easy to work with and was always very mindful of my budget as well as constant changes happening due to Covid restriction shrinking the numbers in my wedding. She made an amazing floral wreat for our pup in the wedding and the flowers she added on my cake were absolute perfection. She made my day so perfect and I am forever grateful.

Una did a fabulous job with our wedding flowers! I had a clear vision of what I wanted and Una completely brought it to life and completely exceeded my expectations! The one thing I was really adamant about was having our head table and the fire place behind us be a focal point. When I walked into the ballroom, I truly couldn't believe my eyes at what a spectacular job she did.
It truly looked like a romantic, secret garden. Not to mention the candles! The candles brought out such a romantic vibe. I'm still swooning over everything! Another great thing about Una, her prices are very reasonable! Some quotes I got from other florists were just straight up outrageous. Una really works though to make your vision come to life within the budget that most comfortable for you. Una also did my flowers for my bridal shower and each centerpiece was just gorgeous! I will definitely be using Una again for any future events I have and highly recommend her to anyone!

Una from the Flower Lab did a spectacular job for my wedding weekend. The centerpieces she prepared for our rehearsal dinner blew me away, so you can imagine how I felt seeing the florals on our big day, which were more grand and more beautiful than I could've imagined. Una was an absolute wonder to work with -- she is responsive, thoughtful, organized, kind, and supremely talented.
She understood my vision even when I had trouble articulating what I wanted. I had a strict budget for florals and Una made magic happen with the budget we allotted. Everything from the bridal bouquet to the cocktail table arrangements, to the sweetheart table arrangement were elegant and truly breathtaking. If you are looking for a florist for your wedding, look no further.

Where to begin! When we first met Una at The Flower Lab, she was so enthusiastic and followed the vision we wanted for the wedding. Throughout the pandemic and our wedding postponement, she was so supportive and helpful with the date change and information on the changes in available flowers. She was honest and flexible with us about what would look good and what may not fit so well with the outdoor venue.
We were blown away by the gorgeous bouquets, boutonnieres, and the beautiful arrangements. Our guests were obsessed with the sophisticated and elegant style Una curated. We all took some arrangements home to enjoy for the remainder of the month. Highly recommend Una and her amazing team! Una, we will definitely be working with you again! Thank you so much for a beautiful day!

Una is the best! And everything in the tons of 5-star reviews here is TRUE. I spent days and days researching and interviewing to find the best florist for our wedding. Una was a clear winner and I'm so happy that we went with her. I had a budget and a very hazy idea of what I wanted for my wedding. She patiently took that and a Pinterest board to plan beautiful arrangements that were just my style.
I felt so safe in her hands because she really cared about making everything look perfect. We ended up having a change in wedding plans (covid, being in a different part of the country.) and we were ready to forfeit our deposit. Even though Una was 100% entitled to keep that deposit, she went above and beyond to work with us and a volunteer coordinator to donate flowers to an LA hospital instead. If you are looking for a florist, no need to look any further - she is the one!

Una is incredible. I was all over the place when we first met. She took my very disjointed ideas and, through a serious of video calls, patiently turned them into beautiful arrangements perfect for our intimate backyard wedding. Her suggestions and recommendations were very helpful and totally in line with what I wanted (even when I couldn't articulate it myself!). Una's eye for detail is so impressive and she's just fun to be around.

We wanted a romantic wedding that was understated, refined, elegant and timeless. Una helped make that a reality. She understood the vision, always gave sensible advice and tried to be flexible with our budget. On the day of the wedding, she was there, making sure everything was beautiful. In the end, the flowers were exactly what we would have hoped for.

I simply cannot day enough wonderful things about my experience working with Una and The Flower Lab. From start to finish Una was a dream to work with. She helped me with my vision for my wedding and also helped bring things to an entirely new level - in a way that only made my ideas flourish (literally). The flowers at our wedding were exquisite.
She also created a green living wall and hung a custom neon sign that I had made for our event. She worked tirelessly and helped me with late night messages to secure decorations + outside vendors like the calligrapher. Thank you Una and Thank you Flower Lab! To all the brides out there you will be so so sooo pleased if you book her for your wedding! (Or for any event!)

Una is truly one of the most talented florist I have ever seen! She was able to make my wildest wedding dreams and "enchanted (but yet elegant) forest" vision come true. When we first saw how her arrangement fit with the whole Birchwood venue, we gasped at the beauty of it all. It was ten times better than what I had ever envisioned. My bridal bouquet (as well as my bridesmaids' bouquet) almost made me cry out with joy.
The wedding arch was so beautiful and everything I wanted. The escort table, guestbook table and desserts table was a dream! And all this while keeping to our budget too. Many of our guests said that this was one of the most beautiful weddings they've ever attended. All this could not have happened without Una's help and accommodation with our last-minute changes / requests. We can't even begin to express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for everything she's done for us -- thank you so much Una!

Finding a florist was one of the most challenging aspects of wedding planning! My mom and I both love flowers and gardens, but as most people will find out during wedding planning, weddings and flowers are expensive! Una immediately understood the overall feel and color palette of my wedding without many details. I knew I could trust her to make the flowers look beautiful for that day, as when I looked at pictures on her website and instagram, her flowers had a certain elegance and beauty!
She was also very flexible about adding or subtracting items, as other florists I had met with often had a minimum order. She was also very open and quick with communication by email or with dropping by, as I live/work nearby. On the wedding day, she brought our personal flowers to the hotel room where we were getting ready, so that we could have them for photos before the ceremony.
When I saw my bouquet, I was soooo happy! She went above and beyond to get me Festiva Maxima peonies and David Austin Juliet garden roses, two of my favorite varieties : Our ceremony space was used for public use up to an hour prior to the ceremony, so she had a very short time to set up, but did a beautiful job!. For the reception, many of our guests commented on how they loved the flowers and took the centerpieces home! I highly recommend Una and The Flower Lab! While I think she does primarily events, I am trying to think of an opportunity to see her flowers again!

I had a great experience with Una at The Flower Lab. Una made my dream come true and transformed a modern classic wedding venue into a bohemian wonderland. I sent her photos and wish list items on Pinterest and she brought my entire vision to life. She is respectful and listens when you speak, she understands the process of weddings and anxiety behind them as well and made my life easier.
I met with Una multiple times, as florals and decor are large factors to the reception. She met me at the venue as well to do a run through and came up with ideas on placing items I wanted to incorporate into the space. Her location is very convenient on the west side in Santa Monica, there's plenty of parking and it's not in an overly crowded or tourist area. I would work with Una again and felt good about my decision to hire The Flower Lab.

AMAZING florist. I hired Una for my wedding and I will not hesitate to say that she exceeded my expectations. Her arrangements were absolutely stunning, she always responded to my e-mails quickly, and she was completely honest and real when it came down to everything. Everyone was impressed with the final result! Trust this professional for all your event floral needs!

Una is PHENOMENAL! I was a nervous wreck planning my son's wedding last weekend and Una was an angel who guided me through the whole process. She is so sweet with that beautiful smile and just made me feel so relaxed and comfortable. She transformed the venue in record time with the help of her assistants, who were so professional and the result was magical!
My son, his bride and the guests were mesmerized by Una's beautiful and exquisite creation! It was everything my daughter-in-law and I had envisioned and more! I can't thank her enough for everything she has done. She is simply the BEST!

The Flower Lab, is such a talented florist! I wanted to get a dear friend a bouquet in appreciation of her friendship and wanted it delivered. I don't live in the area, so I didn't know what I was getting myself into. The Flower Lab, is very straightforward and personable and the bouquet turned out spectacular - I did not see it until it was done - just specified the amount I could spend and described the person it was for. The Flower Lab, took care of the creation, and what a beauty! Thank you again for delivering such Joy to those who deserve it.
