Tesoro

Tesoro did my flowers for my wedding in November 2015. They were absolutely beautiful! I couldn’t have been any happier with the outcome. My flowers were the best part of my wedding (besides getting married to my husband of course).
I just have to say prior to the wedding day, I communicated with Paul multiple times via email. He was always prompt in his responses and even arranged a time to meet with me in person and sit face-​to-​face to discuss the flower questionnaire and vision. He has a passion for his job that is so apparent and he strives for perfection. That is what every bride dreams of!
In addition, after receiving my initial flower proposal, which was too high for my budget, Paul worked with me to budget accordingly. He provided great suggestions to allow me to have as much as I could, while staying within my budget.
I would recommend Tesoro to any bride without hesitation! And trust me, a lot of my vendors I wouldn’t use again!
Thank you so much Paul and your team for providing such beautiful flowers on my wedding day.

Tesoro flowers for our wedding were perfect!
I worked with Paul on our Auberge du Soleil wedding and he was great. We were planning remotely, and he was super easy to get in touch with and really helpful whenever we spoke. I had full confidence in him as the Auberge du Soleil house florist and everything went seamlessly. We could not have been happier!

We worked with Paul for our wedding. He was absolutely amazing and after our meeting he truly brought my vision to life and worked with us on budget. I highly recommend! This ended up being one of the least stressful parts of wedding planning

All I can say is WOW! Paul EXCEEDED all my expectations when he did the flowers for my bridal party & reception for our wedding in Auberge du Soleil last December. I enjoyed working with him very much! Paul provided a clear, detailed quote based on my specifications. His pricing is extremely reasonable, and when you see the final product, I would even say it is a bargain! He cares about his brides and delivers the highest quality of work. I cannot say enough good things. Highly recommended!

Honestly, my wedding was magical thanks to Paul and his group. Most of the guests said it was like they were in a fairytale wedding. Paul is just a fabulous man who understands visions and is so open to ideas that are creative and quirky. If I can urge every bride to use him, it will be the best decision of their life! You can rest assured that he has absolutely everything under control! Love your creative genius Paul!

Paul did the flower arrangements at our Cornerstone wedding on 7÷20÷14 and it was as if he read my mind! Flowers were exactly how I envisioned them to be at my wedding, fun, bright and whimsical! I’ve done some thorough research before hiring him and the pricing is very competitive for the quality and service you get.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Paul Stokey and Tesoro Flowers for our wedding at Auberge du Soleil a few weeks ago. Paul met up with me a few weeks prior to the wedding to go over the details, and everything was set up perfectly the day of. The flowers were gorgeous and just as we had wanted them to be. I highly recommend!

Flowers were never going to be the focus of my wedding this past May 2014. I love flowers, but I wanted to focus my budget elsewhere. I did want to find a florist to do 2 bouquets (bride and maid of honor) as well as 2 larger flower arrangements (reception welcome and dessert tables). After talking to a couple of florists in San Francisco (where my wedding was taking place), I was not too impressed with their customer service. So I went with a personal recommendation from a co-​worker and discovered Tesoro Flowers in Sonoma. I live in Sonoma County so even though they didn’t deliver, I would still be able to pick up the flowers before heading to SF. Cecilia handled my reservation with aplomb while Paul and Melissa graciously answered all my questions! They were so helpful in the whole process, especially considering how small my order was. I had a specific color scheme in mind (blues and sage greens) while having a specific set of flowers that I would like and others that I did not want. When I picked up the flowers, they were STUNNING! They even used olive branches, which I had secretly wanted to suggest but was afraid that I was going to be too specific. There were even these purple flowers that didn’t open until the day of the wedding, which added a beautiful surprise element. Everyone at the wedding remarked on how gorgeous the flowers were. I highly recommend Tesoro Flowers the next time you need flowers for an event!

This has got to be the worst florist ever!!! Paul Stokey the owner is such a complete jerk!!! I waited for a week to receive pictures on some of the floral arrangements he had in mind for my 40^th Birthday luncheon at Auberge Du Soleil. He neglected to send me any or meet with me. He then tells me that he thought I was ok with everything. How can someone be ok with everything when there is no way to know what they have exactly in mind? Further into discussion he huffs and puffs and announces that his company is not a good fit fro me and up and quits 3 days prior to my event!!! I have never in my lifetime had a florist up and quit on me. I cannot believe how unprofessional this is especially since he does some of the flowers for Auberge Du Soleil a 5 star resort. Shame on him and shame on me for being mislead to this arrogant person who is clearly NOT a man of his word. Thank god Auberge helped me out to find several other options before Saturday. Let’s just hope that I get my deposit back or else I guess I’ll have to go to the better business bureau to complain. Whatever happen to trying to satisfy your customers???

After searching many florists to do our wedding this past September at Cornerstone Gardens, we chose Paul. The main reason we selected him was because his prices were reasonable and he was located right on property –I was worried it could be hot over Labor Day and the flowers would be fresher. WELL — now, after the wedding — I would have flown him to NYC to do our wedding. He is beyond talented and super easy to work with.
We had him do flowers for our Luau (rehearsal dinner), Bridal luncheon, and Wedding. Everything was spectacular. Especially our Chuppah — it seriously was the most gorgeous Chuppah I have ever seen. I told him what I wanted and he over-​delivered. Everyone at the wedding commented for weeks about that Chuppah — people didn’t want those gorgeous flowers to go to waste.
Paul also has such a huge assortment of containers to choose from. The way he arranged the candles, containers, and extra small touches everywhere made our wedding a dream. He worked with me to ensure our overall wedding colors and feel was tied in together — he has great idea’s. Just hire him.

Paul made my wedding dreams come true– including a head table that was covered with a blanket of hydrangeas all the way down to the floor. He took everything I envisioned and elevated it– so when I saw all the flowers for the bridal party, cocktail hour, and reception all I could keep saying is WOW– our reception was at the Culinary Institute in Saint Helena and he helped convert the dark barrel into an elegant romantic room. He used all the elements I wanted– succulents, orchids, lemons, manzanitas– and made it all work together without clashing.
Working with him was so great, and every time I left his shop (which is gorgeous by the way) I felt confident and knew I could trust his taste. If you are getting married anywhere in Napa/​Sonoma area you do not need to think twice about going to Paul for all your flower needs. He is by far the top vendor I worked with!

Paul did the flowers for our wedding at Ramekins Culinary School in Sonoma. I met with two other florists in addition to Paul, and I just felt so comfortable with Paul’s relaxed, attentive demeanor. I wanted beautiful flowers without spending a fortune; however, I didn’t have really specific ideas besides color and «vibe». Even at our first meeting, without pictures, I felt like Paul knew exactly what I was going for and would be able to execute it. I came back with a few pictures, colors, etc. once we decided to work together, and he was very responsive via email as well. We had originally discussed two traditional arrangements for the ceremony, but then I decided I would love to have hanging vases from the arbor at Ramekins. Paul made this happen without much increase in the budget and created a stunning ceremony backdrop. The coral & pink bouquets, featuring dahlias, roses, and succulents were absolutely amazing! He made succulent boutonnieres for the guys that looked fabulous with their suits, and lovely wrist corsages for the mothers and grandmothers. The table arrangements were fantastic – colorful, fresh, with a «just-​picked» look. He also provided potted succulents for our cocktail tables.
Paul was so easy to work with, reasonably priced, and created amazing florals that made our wedding so beautiful! I highly recommend his work!

Paul at Tesoro is amazing! I had complete faith in him to create a beautiful wedding day and he delivered! He was a pleasure to work with and I am still getting compliments on his outstanding work! The store is also a must see! He has some great items in there!

Paul at Tesoro did the flowers for our wedding at Calistoga Ranch. It is hard to articulate just how beautifully they turned out. I had a very specific vision in mind, and his execution exceeded my expectations. We wanted the arrangements to be very loose, natural, and not at all contrived. This is exactly what he delivered — fresh, elegant arrangements that looked like they had been plucked directly from the garden.
The flowers perfectly complemented the environment. Paul even made a special trip out to the property to visit the space where we were having the reception to make sure that the arrangements would feel integrated with the venue. He had innumerable conversations with me (and my mom who, being a florist herself, had some very strong opinions…), and was always kind and willing to listen and offer insightful feedback. The kindness and attentiveness he showed was all the more exceptional, given that we did not have a large budget (and he worked with us a lot to minimize unnecessary costs while ensuring that our vision could be actualized), and were having a very small wedding (~20 people) with no wedding party. We are so grateful for all his support and hard work — he is an exceptionally talented florist who cares about his clients. I cannot recommend Paul and Tesoro highly enough.

We moved from the Napa Valley over 5 years ago, and I miss Tesoro. Nice that you’ve moved to Sonoma, wish you’d move to the Pacific Northwest. My husband used to buy me Tesoro arrangements several times each year.

I used Tesoro for my wedding at Auberge du Soleil. Paul Stokey listened to my vision, and executed the arrangements and bouquets perfectly! They are a bit more a on the pricey end, but you get what you pay for and I wasn’t worried about the flowers at all… peace of mind is worth it! I highly recommend for weddings!

Had a great experience with Tesoro! I called them from the Airport two days before I was eloping with my husband in Santa Rosa and had no clue what I wanted. I needed a bouquet, needed it delivered to my hotel and wanted to also keep to a budget.
I told them what I didn’t like and told that I like Calla Lilies and basically told them they could do whatever they wanted — bright colors or all white. They ended up delivering (not just on time, but early) an absolutely gorgeous bouquet in several shades of white — calla lilies, white roses and gardenias, so pretty that I brought it with me on the plane when it was time to go home (currently hanging up to dry in my kitchen!). Kate Stanley of Kate Stanley Designs recommended Tesoro when she was unavailable the day I requested and I’m glad I chose them.

ordered a birthday bouquet to be delivered to our favourite winery sight unseen based on the positive reviews on Unilocal.
was disappointed by the roses which were white dipped in pink. i ABHOR dipped roses. you know, when you say roses and don’t specify the color, you expect velvet red roses.
nevertheless, the bouquet was creative and the recipient loved it so in the end that’s all that matters.
the experience of ordering the flowers and figuring out the logistics was great — Tesoro was accommodating and totally came through. also, i thought it was quite reasonably priced.
best of all, the arrangement is still looking great almost a week later

Tesoro is BY FAR the best florist in the area. Its a more expensive than others you might find, but you are paying extra for the best quality. DO NOT use St. Helena Florist, their arrangements are cheap looking. I always use Tesoro, they come up with some really beautiful ideas. I am always impressed ;)

Walking into Tesoro is an experience onto it self. Delicious aromas fill the air and their selection of various flowers surround the tiny shop.
Modern and elegant designs, perfect for weddings or to send as gifts. Tesoro also designs arrangements for some of the most prestigious resorts and wineries in the valley. You will pay for the quality though, most arrangements start at about 70 $.
