I called Dream Flowers for a next day delivery. Lana was so kind to me and listened to my flower preferences and budget. (Both the arrangement and delivery were very affordable!) She created the most beautiful arrangement and it arrived just when she said it would. Thank you so much, Lana and Dream Flowers!

Hello Lana.
I want to thank you so much for the stunning floral arrangement that my son purchased for me for my birthday on 11/23/2021. My son Nico Smith lives in Newport Beach, Ca. So when I got this absolutely gorgeous arrangement I wasn't surprised he picked your shop for my gift. I'm even more impressed that you're located here in San Leandro.

This is preliminary review as I'm in the process of planning my wedding (and still working on the vision with Lana). I will say that Lana is very organized and utilized google docs to show picks and pricing. They are allll very lovely and she just nails the vision right away. Another thing I'm so grateful for is her willingness to work with you and your budget. She did not make me feel ashamed or bad for eliminating the 'nice to have' arrangements, such as the sweetheart table floral and even suggested how to stay within my budget by reusing some of the floral arrangements!

Was so blessed to have found Lana Starr who works out of her home studio and is very close to my home. I used her to create a display for my best friends memorial. She brought my vision to life in the most extraordinary and beautiful way. She used the flowers that I wanted and was able to find the perfect ones for the display. Very easy to work with during a most stressful time. The name of her business is very appropriate in that if you can dream it she can bring it to life. I highly recommend her for any of your floral needs.

Lana was absolutely amazing!
First, I loved how easy it was to work with Lana for my wedding. She set up a google doc and we were able to both pull it up and share pictures, and stay on the same page about planning for my vision over the phone. She was very straightforward with her pricing and helped me figure out exactly what needed to get my vision to come true!
We started off with less flowers and then ended up cancelling a different piece of decor and opting for more flowers. Lana was able to set up a big circular backdrop for our sweetheart table and hung my neon sign that I had purchased

We reside in Los Angeles and I needed a local florist in the area. Since all my family is in the Bay I always like to send flowers for special occasions etc. I found Lana through YELP and can I tell you that she has NEVER disappointed me. Disclaimer- Lana and I have never spoke on the phone. She is so responsive and always handles all my business through text. I'm never picky as far my floral arrangements because she's the expert and she knows what she's doing. I always just tell her what the occasion is and I tell her to work your magic . She is amazing to work with. Thank you Lana

After receiving my beautiful arrangement previously from Dream Flowers, I decided to send some through Dream.
We asked Dream Flowers to make our friend a special arrangement to let her know we care about her and are here for her. They created a beautiful arrangement. Our friend described it as a floral hug, which is exactly what we wanted for her! Thank you Lana for creating such a beautiful arrangement that conveyed our sentiments to our friend!
Lana was very communicative throughout the process. There was an initial issue with the delivery, but it was solved expeditiously! Thank you! Thank

Totally a 5 star review for Dream Flowers! I needed to have a bouquet delivered to my friends house after unfortunately her grandfather passed away. I saw the great prior reviews for Dream Flowers and I decided to give them a try:) I spoke with the lovely Lana and she helped me through the simple process of what I needed to choose and pricing:) Everything went perfectly and the flowers were delivered in perfect time! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing designs and unbeatable prices! Thank you again! I will be returning:)

I have used Lana to send flowers to our staff for various reasons and on multiple occasions and it's time to give her the much needed glowing review! Besides the fact that her designs are truly beautiful, she's so personable, responsive and thoughtful. Recently, I had placed an order online and then discovered that our recipient was headed out of town the day we scheduled the delivery. I called Lana, she found the order for me and we reschedule for a same day delivery, so that our recipient could enjoy them for several days before leaving town. You can offer her colors, inspiration

I would have loved to give A five star review, however, they completely forgot to deliver our bouquet. The flowers were for my sister and they never showed up.... I should give a one star review, but when I called at 7:15 PM the night of the delivery the owner did rush to deliver it by 8 PM. But, by then, the surprise was ruined which kind of defeated the whole purpose.... I will say, the bouquet that was delivered was really nice. I'm sure it's a great flower shop when they don't forget your order ...

Lana is an amazing artist. Her arrangements are absolutely spectacular. With every arrangement that I send, I get inquiries from the recipients regarding Dream Flowers. I've sent dozens of arrangements and even trusted Lana to do the flowers for my mother's funeral. She absolutely never let's me down.
With a degree in Fine Art, I am critical about aesthetics and Lana's designs have all the qualities of exceptional studio art: a strong focal point, layers of color with perfectly placed patterns and groupings. All of these elements working harmoniously to deliver a unified

Wow. I wish I could give 10 stars. Lana's talent and service is above and beyond.
I called last minute for a same day delivery on a limited budget, and the bouquet she made and delivered within just hours of my call, is amazingly beautiful. I gave her a few thoughts on what I was hoping for in the sympathy bouquet, and what she designed is so perfect I teared up when I saw it. Which, by the way, I saw it because she sends a picture and invoice after delivery. How cool is that?!
I cannot recommend this business enough.

Dream Flowers is amazing and they definitely live up to its 5 star rating. The website is nice to look at the different pictures and flower arrangements they have, then I would give them a call to order. I called and spoke with the owner Lana to order the flowers, she was incredibly sweet and made sure I had the requested flower colors for my order. She delivered them to the business herself with a small delivery fee within the time frame discussed! The customer service is wonderful and her flower arrangements look sooooo beautiful!!! I definitely recommend them for flowers for any occasion. She

I worked with Dream Flowers for the first time this week and was very happy with Lana and her responsiveness. I had a specific idea in mind for a birthday arrangement for a good friend of mine, and then let her run with the ideas I provided. I couldn't have been happier with the results, and I would definitely work with Dream Flowers again. The skill, pricing and customer service were all top notch. Thank you, Lana!

We’re grateful for having Lana be our florist for our wedding. All the floral work was beyond our expectations. Having Lana as our florist made the process very easy for us. We discussed our vision by filling a form and providing pictures we liked. She helped us fill in all little details when we spoke with her. The result was even more beautiful than what we had imagined! (Our only regret during our wedding was not having more time to enjoy the floral arrangements that we loved so much.) Lana picked out the perfect colors to match our wedding palette and incorporated succulents that we like

Lana was amazing! We planned our wedding from out of town and Lana was super easy to work with and was accommodating of our schedules. It is clear she is passionate about her work. She listened to and understood what we had in mind right away. Many wedding guests complimented Lana’s beautiful arrangements. She exceeded our expectations and we definitely recommend working with her!

Lana made my experience so easy! We had to send a 'thank you' arrangement to a friend and it was a great experience. I looked at her website & immediately trusted her judgement because her arrangements are absolutely gorgeous - all I said was I would prefer a country garden look.
It was free delivery & she texted me to confirm that she delivered + provided a picture! Thanks Lana for a great experience.

Lana made of my wedding a wonderful dream with all the floral arrangements she created. She is a very talented artist.
I had a few meetings with her and she was able to capture exactly what I wanted.
I was most impressed by the variety of flowers, some which I had never seen before. The palette of colors was even more beautiful than I had in mind. Even now, nearly two weeks after the wedding, the guests cannot stop talking about the stunning centerpieces and the amazing bouquets for my 9 bridesmaids. My bouquet was even more astonishing, and I cried with happiness when I saw it. I’m not sure

I did not even know where to start looking for an affordable, pleasant, and talented florist in Bay Area when I got engaged. Thankfully we came across Lana! She is so professional, and so willing to try to help you reach your dream without breaking the bank. I gave her my vision, and she turned the reality into a beautiful scenery! She also didn't charge for every little thing like others might. If she had it already, she let us use it. In addition to the stunning bouquets, what I personally will always hold dear to my heart is her willingness to go above and beyond. Our ceremony was planned to
