Prom Corsage
We purchased a corsage for my daughter's prom and when we received the corsage, it was not what we had picked out from the picture they showed us. We took it any way because we were on a short time frame. When my daughter's date arrived we pinned on his boutonniere and slipped her corsage onto her wrist and the flowers fell off. We looked at them, we saw that the flowers were glued onto the wrist-let. Having ordered many corsages from other florists in the past, we were very angered to see that they were not made right considering the flowers were glued to the wrist-let! We called the florist to have her yell at us and accuse us of lying. She did not believe that the flowers would fall apart and that if we showed her she would fix it. I explained to her that we did not have time to drive all the way over there and have her fix the corsage and then drive back to where the kids were meeting considering they were ready to leave for dinner. She continued to yell at us that we were lying and that we came too early to pick up the flowers which we did not. We ended the conversation. She called us back and said that if we left the corsage on the porch they would come pick it up and then on Monday we could return for a refund. They never came and picked up the flowers and we are now having to fight again to get our money back for something that we were not able to use after pre-ordering them. Their customer service was terrible and we will never return nor will any of our family or friends.

Horrible for weddings....
We met MEF at a bridal fair I ended up winning a bouquet worth $250.00 so we decide to go with them. Every time I called with a question or a payment he never remembered who i was. When we had our first sit down with him he had forgotten that he even made an appointment with us. At that time he gave us some free stuff for our wedding (which we did not ask for but he volunteered to us) which we appreciated as well. we gave him a deposit and he dose not have contracts so i created a spread sheet with a descriptions and amounts needed, not to mention color pictures of exactly what i wanted.
On the second visit he made me feel guilty for getting free stuff he offered which erked me, nor did he remember anything we had agreed on.
On the third and final visit to pay the balance his wife Sara was short and not very friendly and I felt all she wanted was my money. she tried to push stuff on us that we did not need and made us feel guilty because they had already ordered some flowers we decided not to go with. (this was the meeting to set everything and make final decisions number wise.) We went through everything and she assured me they would deliver the bouquets on time and decorate and gone by the time gurst arived. She tried to charge us a $150 delivery fee which I felt was her trying to make up for the products she ordered prematurely that we ended up not needing due to RSVP's. We ended up paying a$100 delivery fee. she assured me it was due to them taking so much time setting up all the little details they did.
Gorge pushed me toward s specific flower because he said he did not have the ones I wanted and theses were more expansive even though when we were there two days ago, his wife stated to my mom that these specific flowers were cheaper for them to get. If felt they were using the excuse of not able to get things in to cut corners for more profit.
On the day of my wedding they were late to the hotel for the bouquets corsages and boutonnières. The bouquets were the most pathetic things nothing like I wanted... And my so called free $250 bouquet was so sad and nothing like I had imagined or wanted. There were flowers in there I did not want and the maybe a total of 6 or 7 flowers total. They did not show up to the church until 130 while my guests were there as well delivered thing to the hotel that should have gone to the church that we just talked about tow days prior, and to top it all off forgot my unity candle and had no idea he had it. When my mom asked him for it he did not believed he had it and then in ear shot of my husband to be he said" why do I have it? How did it get to my shop?" My Husband to be had to restrain his self due to him handing it directly to George himself. Gorge went back to MEF to get it by the time he got back my aunt had already ran and bought a new one. In all of the meetings i discussed the runner and how it needed to be pinned down securely. MEF made the runner out to be a beautiful runner that was heavy; it ended up being a cheap overpriced plastic that was loud and embarrassing. They were also suppose to put the initial in moss in the middle of the runner. What they did was cut out a cardboard "D" sprinkled some glue and some moss and set it, not secured it but set it on the runner which tripped my mom and had to remove it due to the fear of my dress dragging it.
At the reception he did not set anything up at all... He handed everything to my coordinator and said "here you go" and took off. It's up setting because of how much time i spent going over with them all the things we wanted and the $1,600 we spent on this giant regret. It was not elaborate in any way at all. And i had a gut feeling about them and everything I was worried about happened.
I know they have locals that come in so often and they do have pretty flowers. as long as you can walk in pick what you want and leave. That is the only way I can explain how they are still in business. Prices are not cheap! Beware

Modesto Exotic Flowers are the best I have ever seen!
I have purchased flowers from all over but I have to say, hands down, George's shop is the best. Everytime I come in, George welcomes me like a long lost friend. He 100% genuine and knows his business. He has the most beautiful lillies and the freshest selection of any flower you can imagine. His roses are always fresh and so colorful. Just when I thought his place couldn't get any better, he renovated it and put in a wide selection of candies, nuts, and chocolates and still managed to keep a large portion of the garden section that looks absolutely stunning! I use his shop for all of my flower needs. He is a true friend, a wonderful host, and a master of his craft. Thank you, George, your loyal customer and friend, Jesse.
