Stunning Decor

Ali is wonderful to work with. He did some of our Ceremony decor, all of our Reception decor; chair covers, draping, centerpieces, etc., and all of our wedding party flowers too. Everything was gorgeous! He is easy to work with and his pricing is great too. We received so many compliments on our Wedding, we couldn't be happier.

The Real Deal

Ali absolutely made our wedding flowers and table centerpieces stunning. Our guests raved about the quality of the displays down to every detail. He was a pleasure to work with and more than delivered and exceeded our expectations. Seamless experience!

Highly recommended!

Got the most compliments on our flowers

We were very pleased with all of the flowers Excellent Designs provided. The arch they built and decorated was beautiful. Not only did they provide gorgeous flower decorations they also custom did our bouquets when I asked for them to add a little extra bling if I provided it. They did willingly. They also decorated our ring bearer's cat stroller with flowers and jewels. Everyone was very impressed!

10.13.18 Roy Wedding

Ali and his team from Excellent Designs were absolutely wonderful! Not knowing very much about flowers and how much they were really going to cost, Ali was so helpful with getting me the best flowers and also keeping within my budget. My bouquet was stunning and the coral flowers matched perfectly with the wedding party attire. I had so many compliments of how beautiful the flowers were. I would definitely recommend Ali and Excellent Designs for any your florists or wedding decor needs for your big day!

Great Prices and Value!

I was referred by a friend to Ali at Excellent Designs. Ali was soo helpful and responsive to all my many questions and calls (sorry). We visited his showroom a few months before our wedding and immediately placed an order for our wedding that took place this month. He honestly has the best prices and value by far. We are soo happy we ordered with him. Please do not hesitate to check out what they can do for you. You wallet and budget will thank you!

Schell Wedding

Ali was amazing to work with. He had everything I wanted to make our reception as fabulous as I imagined it. He exceeded above my expectations and was very flexible to make sure everything fit my budget. When I walked into our reception it was perfect and gorgeous and all our guests along w/ myself could not believe how beautiful everything turned out. It is great to have a vendor that can provide everything in one spot: They did all my flowers including bouquets, centerpieces and flower arrangements for ceremony and reception, charger plates, lighting, a gorgeous sweetheart backdrop. They arrived on time to set up and pickup. I would definitely use them again and recommend to any family and friends.

Perfect day thanks to Excellent Designs

Ali of Excellent Designs took great care of my daughter and I, and walked us through everything. He made the day so special that even the staff at the venue asked us who did the flowers and other stuff as our wedding was one of the best they had seen at the venue (which the venue has as a ton of weddings). Ali's staff pull everything off in a very short time for set up (per our venue's restrictions), yet they made it look effortless. Thank you so much Ali and your staff for an amazing day!!!! I would highly recommend Excellent Designs !!!

The absolute BEST!

Excellent designs is one of the most professional vendors that I had the pleasure of working with during the planning process for my October 2018 wedding. Ali was extremely helpful, friendly, and just really great to work with. I told him exactly what I wanted, and he delivered my vision 100%. It was so easy to order all of the arrangements and extras for our big day. I was so impressed with every single arrangement that Ali and his wife delivered. I literally couldn’t have imagined more perfect flowers in my dreams! I even got a little tipsy during the wedding and made a bridesmaid photograph me with one of my table arrangements. LOL! Aside from their professionalism and quality of work, they also are very affordable and will not break the bank. They are a one stop shop when it comes to rentals and florals, the more work you give them the bigger discount you will get!

EXCELLENT indeed. I found them for my sister's wedding back in 2014 and was delighted to find out that they serve the entire SoCal area for my Mt. Palomar Winery wedding in Temecula on Sept 03. Ali is an absolute pleasure to work with and his prices are out of this world unbelievable, especially when you see his work. There was zero hesitation the moment we saw the quote, you simply can't beat it. Everyone complimented our flower arrangements and both my husband and I couldn't be more pleased the wedding day itself. It is clear that Ali has an eye for designs and knows exactly what you're going for. All we did was told him our theme, and showed him a few pinterest pics for reference and he delivered beyond our expectations. He was always communicative throughout the whole wedding planning period and very transparent about everything, even providing useful tips and suggestions on what would work best for our wedding venue. The only one sad thing was that none of us foresaw the possibility of the wind being extra strong that day which flipped half of our drapes to behind the ceremony arch but the hanging flower flats still made it look fab. I had to photoshop the drapes back in from pre-ceremony pictures lol. So brides who are planning to use arch drapes, definitely do discuss ways to hold it down in the event of strong winds :)
