Divine Orchids

I don't like ordering flowers on line because its impersonal, I don't get to see what I'm purchasing, and I've had some bad experiences with arrangements that look nothing like what's advertised. But when ordering flowers for someone long distance, on-line is usually the most practical option.nnMy wife and I spent three weeks in San Diego at her parent's house. They were incredible hosts and her mom especially went out of her way to make us (well really me) welcome in their home. She loves orchids so we thought it would be thoughtful to get her a nice orchard arrangement.nnI was wary of the big on-line flower stores and decided to try a local florist on line. After a few minutes of searching, we found Divine Orchids in Escondido. I placed the order for the arrangement, and in the notes section I requested they contact me in the event they needed to make any substitutions with the flowers. I add this note whenever I order flowers and no one ever contacts me, they just make whatever changes they feel like. This was not the case with Divine Orchids.nnThe day after placing the order, I received a text message from Victor, who sent me a photo of the flower arrangement, asking me if the flowers were what I expected. This was a pleasant surprise, and one that I very much appreciated. The flowers were on point but the arrangement looked different from what was on their website. I sent him the website pic and advised him that the closer he could get the arrangement look like the pic, the better. He told me not to worry, the arrangement would look better than the picture.nnLater in the day, my mother in law sent us a picture of the display. It took my breath away. More importantly, my mother in law absolutely loved it. It's magnificent and I could tell that careful thought was put into the arrangement. Making things even better, Victor took the time to hand write out the thank you card to my mother in law. Usually, it's printed in some plain font be he wrote this in script and gave it that much more of a personal touch.nnIf I could rate Divine Orchids ten stars, I would. The fact that they took the time to contact me to make sure the order met my expectations is gold. The careful thought and personal touch in writing that note is platinum. Sending flowers is all about emotion and intimate human connections. Divine Orchids clearly understand this and it reflects in how they make arrangements and communicate with customers.nnThank you Victor and Divine Orchids for taking the time to care and get it right.

Excellent service and stunning design. Wow gift .

The quality is second to none.

I could not be happier with my arrangement. It was hand delivered and exceeded my expectations in both presentation and the beauty of the blooms. I mean it. Every time I see it, I smile because it truly delights me.nnDivine Orchids emailed me more than 24 hours before my scheduled delivery to let me know the color of orchids I had chosen weren’t in bloom and proceeded to give me four other options via clear, detailed, numbered photo. I chose a gorgeous salmon color as my back-up and I like it so much more than my original choice.nnI’m really impressed with the customer service I received for not only how easy it was to order online but also how readily available they were via phone for any questions. I wish I could post a picture of what I received, it eclipses the photo that accompanies this review.

Beautiful orchids great people highly recommend great prices was a pleasure buying from victor and his wife
