What People Are Saying
When people ask me my favorite part about my wedding, I usually respond with “the flowers.” I mean, maybe I should say “marrying the love of my my life” or “celebrating with friends and family” but have you seen the flowers?! Uhm GORGEOUS! I had the pleasure of working with Arturo, who was recommended by my wedding planner (Ivory & Stone). Not only was he talented, he was so reasonably priced. He was also so patient and sweet with me. I changed my mind a few times (and definitely had some minor “freak out” bride moments), but I am so glad I trusted him. Not to mention, it was a HOT day for my wedding, and he didn’t complain once. He always had the biggest smile on his face when I saw him. Anyways, everything turned out beautiful and perfect!

When we envisioned our wedding, all I knew from the start was. So Cal Tropical Boho and that Arturo had to bring that vision to life. From the second you see his work and experience his welcoming personality, there is no way you can’t trust him with your wedding day. His use of unique florals and knowledge for the craft makes him stand out against any other florist. I gave him photos and mood boards, but man… did he surpass EVERYTHING I could have dreamed of. Not only that, our wedding was impacted by 40 mile hour winds and heavy rains, and he and his team pivoted our original vision of an outdoor ceremony and transformed what was a backup indoor space into the most intimate tropical setting. All while setting up in horrible weather. From green vines dripping from the ceiling, to a palm leave install that was originally supposed to be on a fire place. If it weren’t for him and his back up plans to make this space beautiful, I don’t think I would have slept the week leading up to the wedding. I am so grateful for his vision, knowledge, and ability to pivot… all with a smile on his face. He went above and beyond on setting up our head table with candles and greenery for our plates. Not to mention my stunning, dramatic bouquet adorned with black velvet to match the moodiness of the décor and bridesmaids dresses. I was in love with his attention to detail and I will forever be in awe of his work. His floral masterpieces and design truly is what brought the entire wedding together and I cannot recommend Arturo enough!!

Arturo was the only vendor we considered for florals because we wanted a romantic and sultry mood with very unique blooms--no surprise that he and his team delivered, AND THEN SOME. The way he combines delicate florals and unique plants is truly one-of-a-kind. We didn't want average looking wedding flowers, so we booked Arturo. We had a large installation on an olive tree that was TO DIE FOR...it created the most perfect altar for our ceremony and instantly transformed into an ornate background for guests to use to photos afterward. Florals are a big unknown until wedding day but a HUGE part of decor. If anything, I would have invested more in florals and less in other items--we were so obsessed! It was important for us to allow the creative juices to flow while providing guidance on coloring and give him and idea of other decor. He took it from there, and created a vision of floral beauty that we will remember and love forever!
