Van Florist

Van is very lovely. She made a funeral arrangement on behalf of our church Rising Star MBC the night before the Homegoing Service all by text. This is now my go to Floral Shop. Professional, Precise, and Gifted.

Great place for flowers! I called her at night to make an arrangement for my friend. Even though it was towards the end of her closing hour, I barely made it in time and she opened her locked doors for me. Asked me how much I wanted to spend, and made a bouquet that accommodated my price! Fresh flowers and nice ribbon too. Great customer service and a lovely lady

Very homely atmosphere here. I just needed a small bouquet of lilies and of course before visiting the shop, I called in to ask if they had any. Van, the store owner, not only told me they had some, but she also told me what kinds they had. When I got there, she already had the lilies out and let me pick. While I was picking, I told her of why I needed the flowers and when I asked to get them wrapped, she offered to wrap them free of charge! Even at the end when I paid for the bouquet, I tried to leave a tip but she refused to take it. What a lovely lady. Thank you again Ms. Van.
I’ll be coming back when I need more flowers and knowing me, that’ll be very soon.

Thank you for putting together such lovely flowers for my aunt’s funeral. O Van is very sweet, knowledgeable, and flexible. She knew exactly what to do and where to send the flowers. Great service!

I had Van Florist create 2 custom standing sprays for my dad’s Celebration of Life. She is amazingly talented!!! An artist with flowers. I had a picture but wanted a few changes and she had some suggestions. It was important to have bird of paradise because it was my dad’s favorite flower but I didn’t want it all tropical with big palm leaves. They came out perfect!!! Nowhere else could you get such personalized service! It meant so much to me! I will never go anywhere else for floral needs!

Today I called and spoke to Van to see if I could get a last-​minute Mother’s Day bouquet delivered to my wife. Van was extremely nice and helpful. I told her what my wife likes, and asked her to create something special for her.
Van said she could create something nice for the price we discussed and could deliver tomorrow. I’m very happy with the service I received from Van!
UPDATE — Mothers Day, 2015:
My wife received the flowers this morning. She said the arrangement was huge, so beautiful and very fragrant. Thank you, Van, for making my wife’s day extra special with your beautiful flower arrangement!

If you’re a planner then this isn’t your place. She quoted a good price but can’t keep her appointments. My wedding is 3 months away and she thinks I have plenty of time. Not for me!!! I will pass and save myself the worry of last minute chaos! As if a wedding isn’t stressful enough!

I had to send a floral arrangement for a funeral with about 3 days notice. I was a little stressed out since this was the first time I had to do something like this. On top of that I am currently living in San Diego.
I wanted to look for a Vietnamese florist in San Jose so that we could include a personalized greeting on the ribbon. I finally decided to go with Co Van. All the other reviews gave me the confidence that she would be great.
I gave her a call and right off the bat, she was as sweet as can be. I told her my situation. She was extremely helpful. She asked me what price range I was looking to spend, the name of the person, where the service is being held (so that she could call to confirm), the relationship between the person and our family so that she could assist in the wording of the greeting. Can I just tell you how impressed I was with her? She entered in my payment information over the phone and assured me that she keeps no record of the card, and that it was processing the transaction as we spoke. Great peace of mind.
The morning of the service, I called her to verify if it arrived at the service and she confirmed. My family later sent me photos and boy, she delivered! It was beautiful. I will most definitely use her in the future and highly recommend her services! Thank you so much, Co Van!

This store doesn’t actually keep to the posted hours. I have stopped by in the morning to buy flowers and usual they are closed. Even in the middle of the day today the doors were locked. I knocked and eventually the lady came to the door. Sadly, the flowers I purchased were tired and overpriced. I cannot recommend.

I know nothing about flowers.
But the lady seemed really nice.
She asked me what colors I wanted.
Asked me how nicely wrapped I wanted it.
I couldn’t muster much of an answer to these questions because of my inexperience at buying flowers but I think she did a great job with the bouquet.
Wish I wasn’t in a hurry and remembered to take a picture though.
I will probably come back.

I had two dozen roses delivered for a birthday and she blew the birthday girl away with how beautiful the arrangement was. She even added some white lilies at no charge. When no one answered the door or phone, she called me instead of just leaving. I was able to get in contact and everything worked out wonderfully. Thank you, Van Florist for a perfect job.

I was a little skeptical at first because all of the reviews were five stars, but she truly lives up to them! Definitely would come back.

Found this place on Unilocal and decided to give it a try. I came to Vans looking to order a funeral flower arrangement, it was kinda last minute (2 days before viewing) but she did an amazing job. She was extremely friendly and told my friend and I what color flowers might be best on the arrangement. The arrangement turned out really nice and it was the right size and everything. Would recommend this place if you’re looking to buy flowers for any occasion.

An absolutely sweet lady working here! She was helpful and wanted to pick the right looking flowers for me. A pot of orchids came out to only $ 22!

Created some beautiful floral arrangements for my grandmother’s funeral. They were very helpful and kind with our last minute requests and constant changes. It was especially hectic as it was during a busy flower time of year (Mother’s Day).
Would gladly refer them to any friends for any flower needs.

Based on the beautiful flowers at Sherri and Luis’s wedding I decided to check out Van’s for my own wedding flowers. Brought some pictures of what I wanted and a list of all the flowers I needed and she was so nice and really seemed to have a good sense of what would look nice and how to work within my budget. I haven’t decided on a florist yet but I’ll definitely update my review and post pictures from the wedding if I go with her!

My Dad had passed away unexpectedly in early December. My brother in law’s family had ordered a really nice floral arrangement from Van’s. It was absolutely beautiful and filled with so many fresh flowers.
Since Van did such a good job with my dad’s floral arrangement, my sister wanted to make sure we used her for other floral needs.
Unfortunately, my Uncle had passed away just late last month. So we knew we wanted to have a floral arrangement sent to the funeral home. We went to Van’s on Monday to pick out which arrangement we wanted and she was so helpful. Van gave us some different suggestions as well as different price ranges. We were able to pick out an arrangement we loved but I had requested if she can use white roses instead of pink ones. Van was very accommodating and said she will not charge us extra. She even said she’ll throw in extra flowers to make sure it’s filled to our liking. She even assured us that she will have it delivered to the funeral home before the Viewing Service started.
On that Friday, when I stepped into the funeral home… I knew which floral arrangement Van had delivered. It was beyond our expectations. She did an amazing job and we were pleased with the arrangement. I really wished I had taken some pictures, but since we were at a funeral… I didn’t want to be disrespectful to my family.
Overall, if you want a lovely floral arrangement for any occasion, go to Van’s. Trust me… she will not disappoint you what so ever.

Perfect Service!!!
I was able to order a bouquet of mixed flower and have them delivered within hours!
They accommodated to my every request.
The flowers were beautiful and fresh!
I strongly recommend!

I decided to stop by Van’s to inquire about flowers for my wedding in August and she was wonderful! I showed her a bunch of pictures from Pinterest and she also had some great ideas for what to do for our centerpieces as well as bouquets and corsages.
I even brought her a vase and she gave us a sample centerpiece with wonderful instructions on how to take care of the flowers to make them last even longer than I expected them to.
I will put another review in after my wedding in August but I am so excited to see what my flowers will look like!

I called co Van for flowers for a friend’s grandfather’s funeral last week. The flowers were beautiful and delivered on time. Thank you so much for your great service! She was very understanding and nice to talk with.
I highly recommend Van Florists for flowers.
