Arturo and his team are AMAZING. From our first meeting, I knew we were in good hands. He listened to our vision for the wedding and also had some great recommendations of his own. I had a few inspiration pics from Pinterest that we discussed and he took it from there. His creation was far better than the photos. My husband and I got married June 5th and our guests still rave about the beautiful flowers. Would definitely recommend Arturo and his team.

We worked with Mary for our floral needs. I still can't believe how beautiful my bouquet was. All I needed to do was give Mary some basic visions of flowers and she totally exceeded my expectations. All I said was I wanted some bling in it and there it was, simply blinged out; not too much to make it tacky. The aisle was decorated with 8 tall glasses with flowers. All flowers used during the ceremony were repurposed for the reception. For the boutonnières and corsages, we used a simple Orchid, which also tied into some of the centerpieces.

I should have written this months ago... My utmost appreciation to Arturo and Nathan of ArtQuest Flowers & Gifts for making my wedding day breathtaking with gorgeous flower arrangements I couldn't ask for anything else. This is the only place I will recommend to get your floral arrangements for your special day. Arturo and Nathan are not only the best people to work with, but the most creative and honest vendor I dealt with during this stressful, but rewarding time. They made me feel at ease and execution on the day of beyond my expectations. Thank you!!! It put smile on my fave and put me in a good mood everytime I look at the pictures of your beautiful floral arrangements... Everything was all worth it.

Arturo is a floral genius!!!!! He brought to life my image of my birdcages with flowers as my centerpiece and they looked absolutely spectacular. I went in with a idea and when I saw it for the first time I wasn't too sure about my vision. But then Arturo being amazing as he is gave suggestions and put his touch on the centerpieces and WOW!!!!!!! They turned out stunning. I couldn't stop going into the room where the reception was going to be to see the work that he did. I was so happy!!!! Also the bouquets for the bridal party and my bouquet were beautiful. For the ceremony he also did such a fantastic job on the arch. Everything was a dream. Thank you Arturo for everything.

Arturo is the first vendor that I feel the need to review. I honestly don't think our wedding would have been as beautiful without him! We really would not have been able to get through it without him and his ideas. He really is amazing!

We were in a state of panic 3 months before our wedding. 1 - we had contracted a different florist and had gotten a mock up...it made us want to cry; 2 - we were so lost on which color/type of table covers go with what color napkins...and we've already gone through 5 vendors! None of them helped us or guided us in the right direction.

As soon as we got our bad mock-up, we remembered that my fiance's cousin went with Arturo for their wedding and the flowers were really pretty. We called Art and to our luck, he was available to meet that same day.

He basically listened to our vision and gave us suggestions. We asked for his opinion about EVERYTHING, and he was straight forward with his thoughts (never pushy) but gave us a good idea of what options we had and what kind of feel it would bring to the wedding, which is really what we needed. It was also awesome that he had both flowers and rentals! After going through 5 different rental companies...our heads were spinning with the different color combinations, but Art really pulled through!

The day of the wedding, he delivered a beautiful bouquet for me and my BMs. He also delivered flower arrangements from my fiance which was also really amazing. I had to make some adjustments to our order a few days before and he happily made it happen.

Arturo from Artquest Flowers provided gorgeous floral arrangements for our outdoor destination wedding in La Jolla. He is a true artist and worked with us to carefully select blue flowers, herbs, and succulents to create incredible bouquets and living flower arrangements that our guests could take home. The two large bouquets he created to frame the ceremony arch were breathtaking. He worked with us to find the right combination of flowers that were in season and matched our color scheme, but also incorporated enough details and creativity to make our floral arrangements truly unique. He was also very flexible in delivering the flowers and worked with our coordinator and photographers to make sure we had everything we needed in place before our pre-ceremony (“first look”) photos.

Arturo was also a delight to work with. We met with him in his North Park studio to view examples of arrangements that were conveniently displayed and organized on his ipad. He clearly listened very carefully to what we wanted but also made helpful suggestions about the types of flowers that would be at their peak (in season locally) and hold up during a hot summer day and evening. He also offered advice, based on his extensive experience, about which types of flowers would work well in my hair and for the wedding party’s bouquets and boutonnieres. We were so happy with the flowers and wish we could do it all over again to continue working with Arturo!

Love Love him.
Beautiful flowers and exceptional artist.
Nailed what we were looking for.

Arturo Marquez was simply phenomenal!! He provided gold chiavari chair rentals and wedding day flowers (bride bouquet, bridesmaids' bouquets, hair florals, corsages for the moms, boutonnieres for the dads, boutonnieres for the groomsmen, a boutonniere for the groom, aisle petals, and petals for the flower girl).

All communication with Mr. Marquez was wonderful. He was extremely accommodating and fantastic at bringing my ideas into fruition. His replies were always timely.

The delivery, setup, and teardown was prompt, discrete, and efficient.

The flowers were simply stunning. I was blown away -- the bouquets looked BETTER than my Pinterest-filled expectations. I received so many compliments on the flowers. I purchased hair florals for myself, and Mr. Marquez had it beautifully presented in a box lined with extra roses and orchids. This provided enough extra flowers to give hair florals to my mom, mother-in-law, and three bridesmaids!

I hated to part with my bouquet when leaving our destination wedding/honeymoon. Over a week later, after being out of water, disassembled, stuffed into a box in my checked bag, and flown across the country, flower from my bouquet STILL look good!

I cannot recommend ArtQuest Flowers strongly enough!

Nathan and Arturo are fantastic and they do such beautiful work! I was truly blown away when I walked into the reception room. Exquisite!

Beautiful flowers!!!! Let's face it, on her wedding day a girl wants pretty flowers. I had the most amazing bouquet! Arturo met all my needs and kept within my budget. My friends visited many other florists around town when planning their weddings, but kept coming back to ArtQuest Flowers. Their referral was enough for me and I hope mine will work for you.
