The Singing Florist

We are so happy we chose Mayra at The Singing Florist to put together all our wedding flowers from pew arrangements to mothers & grandmother corsages and all the boutonnières, bridal bouquets and reception flowers set up. They all looked amazing and were exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much Mayra for all your hard work, professionalism, attention to detail and personal care. I highly recommend The Singing Florist.

I’ve called this florist on 4 different occasions several times during their business hours and they never answer their phone… Guess they are not in much need of business

We were fortunate to have a lot of wonderful vendors for our wedding, however Mayra from the Singing Florist was our absolute favorite of them all! We live in Hawaii but were having our wedding in San Diego to accommodate our families who live on the mainland so we wanted a ton of Hawaiian touches, especially a lot of colorful tropical flowers. We knew that our florist was going to be one of the most important vendors to us. We met with several other florists in the area, and while they all had great ideas and beautiful work, Mayra showed great enthusiasm, had extremely reasonable prices, and she was very organized. She really stood out above all the others. We clicked with her right away, she is such a sweetheart and you can tell that this isn’t just a job for her, this is a passion! She has such a natural talent for picking out flowers that look great together. She has used tropical flowers before but had never done a 100% tropical wedding. She was so excited to put it all together though, you’d think she actually lived in Hawaii with how amazing all her arrangements were. I couldn’t believe it when I saw my bouquet, it was giant! But I’m tall and it just worked perfectly. She got every single detail perfectly from the color ribbon around the bouquets to the types of flowers in the corsages to making sure we had petals sprinkled on the table with the guest book. We had every type of arrangement you could imagine, tall centerpieces, flowers all over the arch (which she rented to us), pedestals with huge arrangements (she also rented those to us), tiki torches filled with flowers, a swirl petal design down the aisle, a cascade of flowers on our cake, etc. She even brought some plumeria blooms from her own yard to sprinkle on our cake table and other various places. Please look at the pictures because they were so breathtaking. It has been 3 months since our wedding and people are still talking about how it was the most colorful and beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to! Mayra cares so much about her clients and her excitement made us excited every time we talked to her. Another great benefit we had from her is she even did a centerpiece mockup for us as part of our package, this was incredibly useful to get an idea of how everything would look.
The most amazing part: the day of our wedding she was actually on crutches and with her team and family she gave us the perfect wedding! She came very early to start setting up, she made sure everything was perfectly in place, she had her sons help move things to the reception site as they were still dressed in their baseball gear from a practice or game. And I saw her at the end of the night to pick up the remaining items. She made sure that our wedding got full attention and her injury didn’t stop her. She truly is an amazing florist!

Found The Singing Florist (Mayra) for my wedding day through Unilocal and all her amazing reviews. I contacted a couple other florists to get estimates and she had the best price with equally good reviews. Of course I decided to go with her.
I met with her at her cute little shop in Chula Vista where we discussed what I wanted. The meeting was about an hour but we got through every detail. She was really friendly and sweet. I got a very good energy from her.
The second time we met at the shop she had my mock up centerpiece, which was included in the estimate. It was beautiful!!! She made a centerpiece that was on the smaller end look magnificent!
The day of the wedding she came on time, set everything up, and as far as I know, there were no issues. That alone is soooo important.
Everything was perfect although the bridesmaid bouquets were leaning more towards the purple side and they were supposed to be hot pink. Also, the rose petals that lined the isle were not as full as I had imagined they would be… they were a bit more sprinkled on. Not big issues, but I did take notice. Regardless… my bouquet, the centerpieces and the boutonnieres were all perfect! Even the bridesmaid bouquets were pretty just color was slightly off.
Anyway overall because of the two very minor issues I would give my experience 4 ½ stars but rounding out to 5 because everything went so smoothly and Mayra was so sweet and nice through the whole process.
I would definitely use her again and recommend to anyone else in need of floral arrangements in San Diego.

I had the pleasure of working with Mayra from The Singing Florist as she was listed as the preferred vendor for the Chula Vista Golf Course. She arranged all the flowers for our wedding earlier this month.
Mayra was just amazing to work with. Her professionalism shined through and she really caters to her customers. All the guests at the wedding complimented so much about our flower arrangements and were fighting to claim the center pieces to take it home.
What I also love about Mayra is that she doesn’t just cater to any one population. She really just cares about people. She is very open minded and also serves the LGBT community.
I highly suggest that you contact Mayra to get flowers for any occasion.

Perfect place for flowers!!! Forget big chain stores or flowers from a grocery store! I went in just for a random bouquet of flowers and there weren’t any pre-​made arrangements. She asked me what I was looking for and if there was anything specific I wanted and with or without a vase. I just wanted something colorful and nice. She stopped what she was currently doing and made an amazing arrangement right then and there. Took about 10 minutes and it was perfect! The price was more than reasonable! Quite cheap for what you get! Awesome custom flowers and great customer service! Support local business and get all your floral needs here!

I found Mayra from the Admiral Kidd Catering and Conference Center preferred vendors list and I am so happy I did! We booked her for our wedding earlier this May in San Diego and doing so was one of the best decisions I made for the wedding!
Mayra’s design is AMAZING and her professionalism is IMPECCABLE. She is so committed and dedicated to making your wedding day floral arrangements look beautiful. At our first meeting you could feel that she loved her job and has such a warm heart! We discussed everything and she was great at giving suggestions and answering any question I had. She was also great contact via email and on the phone. I really loved that she would call to just make sure everything was correct and that I was happy with things. For our trial of how the flowers would look we made a lot of changes and she was so easy to work with. Even my parents fell in love with her personality and work!
We had our wedding on a military base (my husband is active duty) and Mayra was in constant communication with my husband, myself and the base access to make sure everything would go smoothly day of. Her dedication to my wedding really amazed me, I felt like we had put such a huge hassle on her for making her fill out all these extra forms and things, but Mayra told me that she wanted to do this for me and she wanted to help us. She was truly a blessing to us!
The day of the wedding the flowers for the bridal party were so pretty and the flowers at the reception were exactly how I envisioned. Mayra promised that she would make reception center pieces beautiful, and she really did!
I highly recommend working with Mayra and her company!!!

Mayra is an Angel sent from the Heavens. I am not even from the area and had been frantically searching for a place to deliver flowers for my best friend’s mom’s surprise 50^th Birthday party that I was not going to be able to attend. She was the only company that answered on a Sunday at 4pm. I explained to her my emergency situation and without hesitation she said she would help. She had explained to me that today was her day off and she had come in because another client had an emergency for a funeral. As she was leaving for the day and to go deliver, she just so happened to answer the phone when I called. I could not be more grateful. Not only did she say she would deliver, but the standard bouquet that I requested was not available, she used what she had to make something similar and did not charge extra. On top of that she was going to deliver them after her delivery for the funeral, but the party would not have started by then. She said it wouldn’t be a problem to wait, so she could make sure she was there to sing her Happy Birthday. Not only did she go above and beyond, but she was able to help my love show up at the party, wrapped in Red Roses and White Daisies. I will forever be grateful. It is because of kind people like Mayra and Hard working, customer oriented, business owners that show promise in small businesses.

Singing Florist has provided super value, excellent&timely service and tasteful/​appropriate arrangements for all my personal & professional needs. Myra rocked my current request for an elegant thank you to a beloved colleague and demonstrated that she handles the small requests with as much detail & love as she does special events. Thanks @MichaelChats,

We met Mayra at the Bridal Bazaar in January of last year. As she was quite friendly and local to us, we looked her up while planning our June 2014 wedding. Mayra offerred us a terrific package that was tailored specifically to our desires, and her pricing was very reasonable. I met with her a couple times before the wedding so that we could go over the last minute details, and I absolutely enjoyed visiting with her. She’s just such a nice lady and makes you feel happy when you leave. It’s obvious that she genuinely cares for her clients and works to make sure they are completely happy. On the day of the wedding, I was so enamored with how beautiful me and my bridesmaids’ bouquets were! Our colors were royal blue, silver, and white, and Mayra did a terrific job utilizing all of these colors in all of our arrangements. We rented centerpieces from her which were basically tall glass vases filled with water, pebbles, and leaves with a floating candle on top. They were truly beautiful and a hit at our reception. My husband and I couldn’t have been happier with Mayra’s service, and we strongly recommend her to any couple looking for a florist.

My husband and I got married at the Prado in Balboa Park last night and selected Myra through our coordinator. What an excellent choice! First off, Myra was flexible and willing to work with the various colors and types of flowers we were interested for our ceremony and our reception. After doing consultations at other places I was amazed at how expensive most florists are when it comes to arrangement. I told Myra that I wanted to repurpose our hanging wishing well ceremony arrangement for our sweetheart table, and she made it happen. It was well worth having her there to do all the set up, pinnings and movement of the arrangement. I could have not been more excited to see how all of the floral arrangements enhanced our wedding!

I was so impressed by Mayra from the moment I started working with her. Mayra is a preferred vendor at the venue at which we got married. I emailed her inquiring about her services and received a response within minutes. Mayra continued to be super responsive throughout the whole process. Every time I had a question she responded right away and provided pictures and samples where needed.
In addition to this ease of working with her, I also really liked Mayra as a person. She was so friendly at our first meeting, was willing to stay after business hours to accommodate our schedules, and smiled the whole time we were with her.
Finally, and most importantly, we were 100% satisfied with the beautiful bouquets, bouts, and decorations she made for us! Every little detail was exactly as we had imagined and requested it. And, in addition, her pricing was unbeatable (I had gotten in touch with several florists before deciding on Mayra). We took some of the flowers home after the wedding and were able to enjoy them for several days.
We are so happy that we decided on Mayra as our wedding florist — We couldn’t have chosen a better one! We strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a talented, competent, friendly, easy-​to-​work-​with, and affordable florist in the San Diego area.
Thank you so so much, Mayra!

Mayra was the best florist I have ever been too! She is awesome ! She made my bridal bouquet & it was so gorgeous. She kept in touch with me whether it was through email or phone. She goes out of her way just to make her customers happy. She also made my bridesmaids bouquets last minute & they still came out beautiful. Thanks mayra for you’re awesome service ! :)

I called all around Chula Vista looking to find anyone that would make my wife’s day extra special since it was my anniversary. I called 1800flowers and they could not do anything for me since it was Sunday. I was devastated. Then I searched again and found The singing florist. Myra the owner was at a baseball game watching her son play. She answered the phone and took my order. She said that she could make it possible. Delivery was not an issue and she would give me a good price. I gave her all my info and let her know what I wanted for my wife. She said no problem. I wanted to make it extra special so I asked her if I would go buy some gifts would she deliver them also. She said no problem. I went to Macy’s and got the wife chocolate covered strawberries and took them to her at the shop. She was waiting for me. I got to see the flowers and I got to meet her. She then communicated until the delivery went thru! Myra made my anniversary gift possible after all the other florist could not! She went out of her way to make my wife feel special and I thank her for that. Thank you for everything! She has made me look like a hero, when the whole time the hero was Myra and her business.

The owner was very nice and even though I gave her the wrong address for my girlfriends work she was able to get the flowers back to me so I could deliver them myself. Good service and beautiful flowers

I saw the one-​star review and it puzzles me.
I have used Mayra for several years, for several occassions.
I had an angry client on the phone with me… and then Mayra appeared at her door with flowers and a song… client instantly switched, started crying and thanked me! You can’t get that kind of service… I called Mayra just before calling the customer, she zoomed over to Coronado from Chula Vista to be there.
I have also had her sing Happy birthday to my husband, and have had her sing to several friends when they have had parents die, birthdays, both happy and sad events.
I referred her to a friend for her wedding, the bride wanted Peonies in Winter… not hapening… but Mayra found these amazing roses that looked just like peonies! Her wedding flowers were incredibly beautiful.

I want to start off by saying The Singing Florist is a GREAT place to get your flowers especially Wedding Flowers. Mayra is an AMAZING person to work with. She will work with your ideas & your budget. The arrangements were classy and elegant wihile within my budget. Her mixture of callalilies, green roses and other lillies was amazing. I was extremely pleased with the finished product, as it was exactly what I had imagined. Thanks Mayra for making my day even more special!!!

I live in Paramount, CA. I have been ordering flowers from Mayra for a few years now. I have never been disappointed with her lovely arraignments. Due to The Singing Florist web site still being constructed I was unable to exactly choose the flower arraignment but I had faith in Mayra. I told her what I was looking for and price range. Well all I have to say is Mom was very happy with her flowers. Thank you Mayra!
