Ixora Floral Studio

WOW. I could not be more thrilled with the floral design Lisa (the owner) did for our wedding at Bel Air Bay Club. Lisa was the design VIP that made our wedding incredible. Best decision we made was hiring Lisa!

Lisa was patient with us as our vision changed several times during the wedding process, and took several calls, zooms, and an in person meeting to get it just right. She took time to listen to our ideas, referenced our inspiration photos, and made them even better than we could have imagined, taking our dreams to life!

Lisa absolutely nailed it!!! 10/10, would recommend to all. THANK YOU LISA!!!!

Angelina was able to take and deliver my order within a few hours. The arrangement was beautiful!!! I saw it when my girl sent a photo to me in Oregon. They came through for the both of us. ✝

If you're looking for well-crafted, elegant design, and fresh florals, look no further than Ixora! Lisa was great to communicate with, and was very thoughtful when coming up with the best floral design that complemented the vibe of our wedding. We hired their services for the most important parts of our wedding, which was the arch of our ceremony, the aisle decorations, centerpieces and Sweetheart Table for reception, the boutonnieres, and bouquets. Though, they're more than capable and ready to do much more than what we've experienced. We could hear our guests complementing and talking about how beautiful all the florals looked with Ixora's highly skilled craftsmenship. Their set up and tear down skills were flawless and it was so cool to see them transform our venue and truly make everything complete. My wife has told me that she's never held a more beautiful collection of flowers before. I've also had the unique opportunity of disassembling her bridal bouquet so we can dry and preserve the flowers in resin and I was shocked by the clever arrangement, flower choice, and construction hidden between the stems to make the bouquet solid and beautiful. If you're still reading this and wondering if you should go with Ixora, I'd encourage you to stop and contact them. They're exactly what you're looking for.

I ordered a Cora get well arrangement for my sister. She was thrilled when she received it. She sent me a photo and it was beautiful beyond my expectations. Great experience. I will order from them often.

Lisa was amazing and had a wonderful eye for design and florals, she really found her calling. We had a few ideas, but were very open to suggestions and her tastes of what looked good. We provided her with a few flowers and colors we liked and she took that and ran with it. We could not have imagined more beautiful arrangements that were exactly what we always wanted if not better. Every detail from our flower petals in the aisle at the ceremony to the centerpieces on the tables, everything was cohesive and beautiful. I would absolutely work with Ixora again and again, she really has a talent.

Lisa has been my go to florist going all the way back to the beginning of Ixora. From the most intimate wedding to the biggest hotel lobby holiday design, she consistently creates a new and unique look . Cannot say enough.

Working with Lisa was a dream. She executed our vision for our wedding perfectly and was very collaborative with style and presentation. I would highly recommend!

I'm a big fan. My sister sent me flowers from Ixora for my birthday some years ago. I'd been to Shabby next door but hadn't explored Ixora, their neighbor. Now Ixora is our go-to for sending special and unique flower arrangments to local people we care about. I love that I can order same-day if I get on their site early enough. The people we've sent flowers to have been extremely impressed with their flower gifts. Our family will be repeat customers!

Love ordering from Ixora! I ordered the Lavish Gardens arrangement for my mom for Mother’s Day & it is absolutely stunning!

I received excellent customer service for same day delivery. The flowers were delivered impressively quick, and they were beautiful. I will definitely purchase from here again.

I ordered flowers for my mom a few times and each time the arrangements were more than I could have expected. The flowers are always fresh and vibrant and smell amazing. Lisa and Craig and all of the staff are always professional and helpful. I am happy to support local family owned businesses and will continue ordering from them for special occasions!

Although I no longer live in the Pasadena/LA area, I still love any chance that I get to send flowers from Ixora. Because everything that I have ever ordered is beautiful, I went with designer's choice (Let them create!). The arrangement was a stunner.
My aunt absolutely loved it.
Thank you Ixora!

As usual, Ixora delivered a fantastic arrangement. I have been ordering from them for years. The arrangement was true to the photo on their website. The best florist in the Pasadena area ever. I ordered the Juliette. I can't seem to download a photo of it from my receipt unfortunately. Anyway - terrific as always.

Purchased arrangements twice now from them and have been happy both times. Their arrangements are wonderful.

Beautiful wedding flowers! We got so many compliments.Super efficient, kind, and easy to work with. Thank you!

LOVE this.place!! The flowers are fresh and beautiful not your everyday type of stuff more high-end high style type of design, im always very happy with my orders.

I am so grateful for the beautiful arrangement. It was gorgeous and made my mom really happy. Thank you!!

My beloved mom passed away recently, and yesterday we had a memorial service for her at The Langham Huntington, a swanky hotel in Pasadena. I was in charge of ordering flowers for the event. I hired Ixora because (1) they had done events at the Langham before, (2) they had a five-star rating on Yelp, and (3) they were conveniently located to the venue. The photo gallery on their website showed beautiful work.

I started to have doubts when the owner, Lisa, didn't respond to my emails or phone calls in what I would consider a timely manner. But I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. After we had settled our contract, I asked Lisa several times whether she had any questions for me. She told me we were "all set." I expected to arrive at the Langham on the day of my mother's memorial to see the flowers set up as we had discussed. What followed was a catastrophe.

My family and I arrived at 2:00 pm to start setting up for the 4:00 pm service and were alarmed to find no flowers whatsoever. I called both of the phone numbers I had for Ixora and had to leave messages because no one answered. (I was not given an emergency number to call.) We were stressed out and panicking when guests began to arrive and still no flowers. All of our guests were seated and waiting for the service to begin when the Ixora delivery person finally showed up at 4:20 pm (although later Lisa would claim that he arrived at 3:40 -- not true). The man arrived 20 minutes after the service had officially begun. He had to set up the flowers around my mother's urn and portrait in front of all of our guests. We were horrified that our grieving guests -- not to mention my poor grieving father -- had to watch a sweaty delivery man in T-shirt and shorts handling my mother's cremains. The man also set up the flowers so that they half obscured my mother's portrait!

And by the way, by the time the delivery man brought in the bouquet for the reception table, every single guest had already arrived and was seated inside -- so no one even saw the reception flowers. What an utter waste.

The last thing a family needs is to be anxious and worrying about logistical details while trying to interact with guests and deal with their own grief over the loss of a loved one. My father trusted me to handle the flowers for my mother's memorial. I felt a tremendous responsibility to fulfill his wishes and I was mortified that this was how it turned out. It was nothing short of a nightmare.

Later that night after the service was over, I checked my email to find a message from Lisa that was clearly a cop-out trying to dodge responsibility for their mistake. She claimed that the hotel had given her the wrong start time (6:00 pm). Even if this were true, my question is: Why didn't she ask me, the client, what time the event started? This seems like a critical piece of information that she should have confirmed before telling me we were "all set."

When you hire a florist for a special event like a wedding or a funeral, you're not just paying for flowers -- you're paying for a service. Ixora did not provide the service we paid for. I put my trust in them, and one of the most important days of my life -- the one in which I was to honor my mother's memory and share my grief with family and friends -- was ruined by what the owner of Ixora glibly called a "communication breakdown."

When Lisa finally called me, she apologized but still tried to put the blame on the hotel. I demanded that she make this right and she has agreed to give us a full refund. However, this disastrous experience will live on in my memory, forever tied up with the memory of my last goodbye to my mother. For that, I will never forgive Ixora.
