Flowers By Appointment Only

I just had my wedding on May 30 and Mr. Bill made it so beautiful! The flowers were just what I wanted and he really worked with me to stay inside my budget. He was so sweet and thoughtful. I“m so glad he was recommended to me by a friend. He made our wedding so beautiful!

Mr. Bill was my absolute favorite vendor from my wedding back in September 2011. He was funny, genial, and really listened to what I wanted. Most of all, his arrangements were amazing. I looooved the table centerpieces and my dreamy bouquet. I was blown away by the two floral arrangements he created for the altar, they were just gorgeous! I was also so pleasantly surprised by how beautifully he decorated my cake, I couldn’t believe it was mine. The fabric drapes he added to the boat also gave a nice dramatic and colorful pop to our reception. His prices were very reasonable, and he accommodated last minute changes and additions. He threw in flowers for Mary’s Altar for our wedding free of charge, and tried to save us money wherever he could. His floral arrangements truly added to the joy I experienced on my wedding day!

Mr. Bill is awesome. He loves flowers and he loves people. He did a fabulous job for our wedding in DTLA. Very reasonable prices, I recommend him to all of my friends.
He’s a true expert, I put talk my trust in him.

Mr. Bill designed all of the centerpieces for our wedding. At first, there was some confusion.
My husband and I dedicated each table (8 total) to special people in our lives, six deceased and two living. We wanted the centerpieces to match the personality of the person who represented the table. Once I explained the concept and provided Mr. Bill with photographs and descriptions of each person, he got it. I gave him some ideas, but for the most part, I told him to use his imagination. I trusted his judgment. Once he realized how much creative freedom he had, he loved the idea and totally went for it. My only regret is our photographer didn’t get good pictures of each individual centerpiece. Mr. Bill’s centerpieces were so popular that our wedding guests fought over them. In addition, the flowers for me (the bride), my husband, and our wedding party were beautiful too.

I love Mr Bill — he is a hidden gem of a florist! His prices are amazing and his taste is perfect. His office is just above the flower mart so it’s extra convenient. He’s just the most genuine and creative guy I’ve met — and as a former wedding planner I’ve worked with him dozens of times and he never disappoints.

First off Bill is a great guy. He is so sweet and so passionate about what he does. Bill came as a package with our venue. He is based downtown which is where we went for our meetings. I had a general idea of what I wanted for the wedding but didnt know how to put it into a reality. Bill did a great job of taking my vision and putting it into beautiful centerpieces, bouquets, a chuppah, and isle decorations. It looked great. The downfall was, that we were told to pick up the flowers at 1:00 but they were not ready, at 2:00, they were still not ready. We got to the point where we are taking bridal party pictures and did not have bouquets and boutineers in them because they still had not arrived. Halfway through our photos they finally came. The other issue was I saw at least two tables that Bill missed putting centerpieces on which was a bit embarassing. However our head table looked incredlbe and his prices can’t be beat. He is great at working with people on a budget and you will definetely get a lot of bang for your buck.

my husband and I loveddddd Mr. Bill. His tastes is impeccable… I let him know what type of flowers I wanted and I told him to run with it since I knew he would do an amazing job.
Wedding day came and he completely OVER DELIVERED! he gave us extra flowers for the tables (which we didnt ask, nor pay for) he gave us extra flowers for the groomsmen and dads just in case (which we totally didnt even think about) and he went out of his way and met us in our hotel to drop off the bouquets for the girls when he definitely didn’t have to.
I absolutely fell in love with his sarcastic humor and I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING 10.27.12 THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!

My comment is long overdue, I got married in April and Mr. Bill was the best. He did my bouquet and was very honest with the price. He was very flexible considering my wedding was a month away. Thank you, Mr. Bill for finding the peonies and making a beautiful bouquet.

Honestly, I haven’t the foggiest idea how this guy has such high Unilocal reviews. Let me list off the ways he almost ruined our wedding.
My wife’s first appointment with Mr Bill began with him making fun of her in front of my mother. He literally told my wife that she was «high maintenance». Awesome way to impress a bride. My wife, like so many women, has been dreaming of her wedding day for many years, and had very specific wishes for her flowers. By the end of the appointment Bill had promised her all kinds of great flowers and she was happy again.
When they went back for a second appointment to see some sample arrangements, Bill had completely forgotten to make them! So he laughed and said «come back in a half an hour, I’ll whip something up for you.» Seriously dude? What he «whipped up» did not contain the flowers they had agreed on. Not to mention that my bride had informed Bill that she was coming from out of state and her time was precious.
On to the wedding day. My wife and I had agreed that things inevitably go wrong at weddings and to just let things go and have a great time. So the only thing my bride really cared about was her bouquet. Let me tell you, and I’m not kidding, her bouquet looked like it fell out of a moving truck and was run over by a car. Maybe that’s what actually happened.
She specifically asked for peonies. At the last minute Bill swapped them out for ranunculus’. Not the same flower Bill! But there is a HUGE difference in price. He still charged us the same, but he brought his cost WAY down and seriously upset my wife in the process. Awesome. The bouquet was also half the size it was supposed to be (only slightly larger than her bridesmaids’), and was wrapped in a dirty ribbon tied maybe by a 6 year old.
Bill did offer to get a small portion of our money back to us, which, 6 months later, we have yet to receive.
We too went through FantaSea Yachts, and I sincerely hope that they have other florists they are now referring their clients to.

Mr. Bill was a pleasure to work with. My flowers were beautiful, the only call out I have from my flowers for my wedding he forgot to add the glass under my center arrangements, which really upset me. But other then that my arrangements were great.

I loved working with Mr. Bill! He’s fun and knows exactly what you want! Our centerpieces and bouquets came out beautifully and best of all, within budget. Highly recommend him!

Where to start describing about the talented Mr. Bill!!! His ability to pick out flowers and colors are absolutely stunning. We met a few times about what look I was trying to achieve and the colors I would like to use to match the wedding theme and he did an OUTSTANDING job.
From the flower decorations to the aisle runner and even the dance floor decorations on the boat… I was stunned with the beauty. He was referred to me by FantaSea Yachts and I would HIGHLY recommend him for your event. His years of experience show through his work. He was a great guy to work with. If I ever need flowers for another event, I wouldn’t think twice about going to him again!

I found «Mr. Bill» to be incredibly rude and condescending. His personality needs a serious adjustment! If you are getting married at FantaSea Yachts, I strongly recommend that you go with Peony and Plum instead!

Quality and Affordable
Mr. Bill is the main florist and he makes the most beautiful designs. His website does not do him justice. He was contracted with our venue so we made an appointment and he was just amazing! Delivered my flowers before the wedding for the photos of the bridal party, beautiful set-​up, extras for just-​in-​case. He was awesome. I am sure he had a team with him but on your big day you don’t get a chance to see those things. There were no problems at all, and that was such a relief to not have to worry about anything. Beautiful!!! Thank you Mr. Bill and your excellent team for carrying out all of my requests and having such fantastic ideas to tie everything together!!!

My wedding was March 2011 on one of Fantasea Yacht’s yacht. I worked with Mr. Bill directly as a referral from Fantasea Yachts and he was wonderful and extremely patient. I changed my design about 5 times and he was always cheerful during our meetings.
The bouquets and arrangements turned out stunning and exactly the way I wanted it to look. I bought my own arrangement containers. I found them at Home Goods. I fell in loved with them and had to use them for my wedding.
I also wanted to use giant ranunculus that are always available in Temecula’s farmers market for my flowers which Bill and I could not find in the flower market. So, I bought it from the grower instead and had Mr. Bill put the arrangements together. He did an awesome job.
Again, Mr. Bill was a pleasure to work with and always friendly and helpful.

Flowers by Appointment did a terrific job on the flowers for our summer wedding. We met with Mr. Bill’s assistant at the flower mart only about two and a half weeks before the wedding. My wife did all the deciding and I just agreed to everything but she picked some combination of roses and peonies in pink.
We worked with the assistant for about an hour deciding on what we wanted for bouquets, boutineers, tables, and the altar. She had a lot of good tips on how to work in the wedding colors of pink and brown.
We made a few changes to what we ordered by e-​mail soon after our meeting. The day of the wedding everything showed up as ordered and without a hitch. I though the table arrangements and the bouquets were particularly beautiful. I thought the altar itself was a little sparse but I don’t think other people noticed.
We had no choice but to use Flowers by Appointment because we had booked our wedding through Fantasea Yachts but I would not hesitate to use them again. They were professional and talented at what they do. 12 table arrangements, 6 boutineers, 4 bridesmaid bouquets, the bride’s bouquet, and the altar came out to about $ 700-​$ 800.

I got married on 03÷27÷10 and Mr. Bill did our flowers and let me tell you… they were perfect! Exactly what I had envisioned when we spoke about them. Mr. Bill had some wonderful ideas and I was blown away when I saw everything! He is truly wonderful!!!

Mr. Bill is the BEST!!! We were referred to him through our reception venue, the FantaSea Yacht Club in Marina del Rey, and it was one of the best things to happen to our wedding!
Since he sells from the LA Wholesale Flower Mart in downtown Los Angeles, the prices are simply unbeatable. We got quotes from a few other florists for the exact same flowers we were ordering from Mr. Bill and they wanted to charge two and three times more than he charged us for the exact same thing. Because of this pricing, we were able to go with really gorgeous flower arrangements and have more flowers than we could have for the same price somewhere else.
Besides pricing, the best part about Mr. Bill and Michelle at this place is their enthusiasm, kindness, and willingness to help you find your vision and run with it. Mr. Bill was so receptive to our ideas/​thoughts and helped us brainstorm the perfect bouquets and arrangements. When the day of the wedding came and I got to see the flowers in person, they were perfect and even more beautiful than I anticipated. They also lasted ALL DAY! No wilting or falling apart, etc. Everything looked as nice at the end of the night as it did when we got them at 10:00 am!
Mr. Bill can be bad about e-​mailing back promptly, but is great on the phone and really does work his booty off for you. The pricing, service, and quality combined simply can’t be beat otherwise.
Call him up, go meet with him, tell him your budget, and watch the magic happen. Trust me – you simply won’t be disappointed!

What a great find! A florist in the Downtown Flower Mart who’s not only wholsale but has designer flowers at wholesale prices. Its not a fancy schmancy flower shop, but Mr. Bill has been designing arangements probably as long as LA’s been a hot spot! He’s the best designer I’ve ever met with rock bottom prices (because he doesn’t have a BH address). Its a workshop that you visit, so its not perfectly neat, but its a creative space. You can feel it from when you enter the shop to the way he stays as long as you need at an event to make certain that every flower is in the perfect place.
