LPG partnered with Whale Film and Willo Perron to produce the Avatar jungle fantasy set for Rihanna's Savage X Fenty Fashion Show. As part of the project, LPG helped create a 30-foot high x 30' wide fantasy tree covered in moss, jungle vines, exotic botanicals, plant life, and oversized floral. She also created the botanical tone around mini-stages built by Whalefilm for the performers.

La Petite Gardenia saved me when another florist backed out one week before my son's bar mitzvah. Alison bent over backwards to make my event exquisite. She assuaged my concerns and took over. When I walked in the room and saw her creations that night, I was in awe. Just stunning. Thank you, La Petite Gardenia, for everything

Alison and her team are incredibly talented and professional. She is a true artist by nature and creates magnificent “living art” some may say.
Alison did an excellent job for my bridal shower in NY, that I ultimately decided to go with her as well for my wedding. She was instrumental in the advice she gave me in helping me plan my wedding and with helping me create the design/aesthetic. I was so happy with the outcome. She outdid herself and I would highly recommend her and La Petite Gardenia to friends.

We had the pleasure of working with LPG for our wedding in Palm Springs and I have to admit, they went above and beyond, both visually and professionally. The owner, Alison Franchi, is literally a botanical genius and a true artist with immeasurable skill. Aside from being incredibly easy to work with (seriously, she just 'gets it') she took my ideas for our tablescapes and created a masterpiece that guests are STILL buzzing about today. And my bouquets? Calling them perfect is an understatement. Gorgeous, Fun, Sustainable AND held up in the heat beautifully. So much so we used them as centerpieces

Love you Alison! Thank you for making my marriage proposal so extraordinarily special! I could not have done it without you and Ali! Thanks for taking the time to help me coordinate and assemble one of the most amazing evenings for Ashley and myself. Alison and her team at La Petite Gardenia are the people you want and need when putting together that magical occasion xoxo

La Petite Gardenia consistently exceeds expectations in quality, in beauty, and in attention to detail. As a former photo-stylist, it can be difficult relinquishing creative control, especially with flower arrangements, but with La Petite Gardenia, I simply share basic parameters about the recipient and occasion and am blown away, time after time. A pleasure with whom to do business!

My go to for any event floral needs is La Petite Gardenia! She created the most amazing floral wall for my baby shower! Everyone was so impressed and couldn't stop taking photos in front of it. She also made a one of a kind plant sculpture for my office in LA that got so many compliments. She's so talented!

La Petite Gardenia exceeded all expectations when they did the flowers for my milestone birthday event! I wanted something special for the occasion and they came through with incredible arrangements that enhanced the whole atmosphere of the party. From start to finish, working with Alison was a delight- a total pro, she understood my vision but made it even better. I can't recommend her and her team enough!

Alison is by far the best in the business. Her creativity and commitment to excellence is far better than any other florist I've ever worked with. I produce events and work with vendors ALL the time - working with her is like working with family. She's trustworthy and no matter who you are trying to please - she can do it! And then there's here ART!!! Omg what she can her team can do with flowers is AMAZING. I rarely write reviews but when someone is as excellent as her, I couldn't help it. Thank you LPG!! You are THE BEST!!

As the owner of an event production company, my team and I absolutely love working with La Petite Gardenia. Alison, the owner of LPG, is creative, friendly and passionate. She listens to her clients and brings their vision to life in extraordinary ways. She loves what she does and it is apparent through every floral creation that she delivers. If you are looking for a personal arrangement or a wedding/event florist, I highly recommend LPG!

I am absolutely in awe of this company. Every single piece Alison and her team have done for me has been, not only perfect for my purposes, but uniquely beautiful and capable of standing alone as a work of art in its own right. I'm not kidding when I say everything LPG makes should be displayed in a gallery or museum somewhere. Alison's knowledge of her craft is really incredible-- when you meet with her, you'll see what I mean. Her ability to combine natural, organic elements and draw inspiration from a myriad of sources to meet the individual tastes of her clients makes her work

Today is our anniversary and I still get compliments on our wedding flowers three years later! We had the honor and pleasure of working with La Petite Gardenia in 2012. The owner, Alison Franchi, is a floral genius. The energy and love that goes into each piece blew our minds away. Working with her was so easy and she took our vision and went beyond our wildest imaginations! At the last minute, I called to make a floral change because we added these unique barn doors as a backdrop. She didn't blink an eye. She was inspired and excited to create another masterpiece!

La Petite Gardenia was the florist for my daughters wedding on 7/26/14 and all I can say is THANK YOU ALISON!!! From the initial meeting my daughter loved Alison and her calm demeanor. Her understanding of the vision my daughter had for her wedding day was right on! The centerpieces were gorgeous, creative, and had all of the flowers we requested and more. Alison truly went out of her way to deliver EVERYTHING we requested, and more!
We took the flowers to our brunch venue on Sunday and everyone was commenting on how beautiful they looked,
Thank you Alison for helping to make our daughters wedding

These folks rock! Made a last minute call to get flowers delivered to a friend in the hospital. And I couldn't make a hospital visit so getting a nice flower arrangement delivered quickly at an affordable price -- with great quality - is terrific value. I saw a picture of the flowers and they were great. All under $50 with vase included. They service the whole city.

What did I say? 5 stars!
Why did I say it? Because if you go to anyone else for flowers or Weddings or Events, you are missing the best artist, florist, and business I know.
Alison, the owner is a friend and I cannot recommend her enough. I respect her so much, she puts everything she has into this business and as you can see by the reviews, she has what it takes to make your event awesome.
I helped her one day deliver 200 + glass Terrarium table decorations to the Museum of Natural History on the USC campus for this 5,000 or so person event. They were so awesome

La Petite Gardenia is simply the best. They are my (and boyfriend's) go-to flower delivery service, and I'm always impressed at the beauty and originality of every arrangement. Allison is super talented and her creations are so much more than what you'd get from most flower companies. I can't say enough about how impressed I've been with everything Allison comes up with. A master at what she does, for sure!

Love me some LPG! I use Alison for weekly table arrangements on our CBS daytime talk show "The Talk". We're constantly impressed each Monday when a different and unique arrangement shows up on our set. Alison and her team also take our last minute requests for additional set decoration, props and crazy specialty items including an ENTIRE HOST TABLE MADE OUT OF FRESH FLOWERS! She's also been a big part of some important episodes for us including Halloween, Christmas, Valentines Day and Easter.
This past June, we won a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Art Direction and Set Decoration

I recently needed a centerpiece for the Grand Opening of my psychotherapy office. Never having hosted an event like this before, of course I did a local search on Yelp and came across La Petite Gardenia.
After seeing the beautiful, unconventional arrangements pictured on their YELP review I knew LPG shared my sense of aesthetics and then reading the good things other Yelpers had to say about them, I figured using them would be a good bet.
I was not disappointed, the staff at La Petite Gardenia was awesome to work with from start to finish! I didn't know exactly what I was looking for
