Orchid Lei

An awesome Instagram prize...For Hinamatsuri (Girls' Day, a Japanese tradition), there was a post on Instagram. The Orchid Lei Company was giving away an orchid lei to three lucky participants. I thought, "Wow... wouldn't it be a perfect gift for my friend who is leaving for the mainland?"I was really hoping to win. I "liked" every post on the Business page, tagged many people, and even made a story with music for The Orchid Lei Company.Hard work paid off as I received a message from The Orchid Lei Company at around 3:30pm that I was one of the winners! I was elated and said that I could pick up the lei right away for dinner that evening. (I was warned that the shop closes at 4:30pm... I got there in time!!!)Merryl was very friendly and helpful. She gave me great instructions on how to find their shop. The most important thing was to look for the ramp and go to the upper level of the building. There's no sign. However, I saw a white van with the company's name. I went right into the shop and met Merryl. She presented me with the lei in a clear plastic box. When I told her that I wanted to video the lei, she helped me with a couple of props. Haha! It made a fantastic Instagram post!Thanks so much for the Mauli Hiwa lei! It's a tricolored, non-fragrant, sturdy lei - great for traveling and matches everything! We looked at the prices online and saw how expensive this lei is! We truly appreciate the generosity of The Orchid Lei Company!Happy Girls' Day 2022!3-3-22

My cousin is visiting Waikiki for the first time and was staying at the Outrigger Reef. I wanted to do something special and called the hotel concierge and they recommended sending a lei to her room. Orchid Lei has a shop there at hotel and concierge got me in contact with Merle (I hope I spelled her name correctly) and was able to get a lei sent to her room! Merle took pics and sent them to my phone so I could choose something special. She even wrote a note for me! Thank you Merle for helping me make my cousin's 50th birthday extra special. She really showed me the Aloha spirit!

I had a great experience buying lei from the Orchid Lei. Whether you want stems, single strand, or fancy lei that takes hours to make, I called around and the Orchid Lei's prices were far better than anyone else's.The Orchid Lei mostly sells to businesses, but you can make a personal order by phone or through their website--be forewarned their website isn't the most helpful to see their products, it's just a way to contact them. The Orchid Lei is located in Kalihi, in an industrial area on the second floor. There's no storefront/display case, you drive up to a warehouse/production area, but for the price, it can't be beat!

Absolutely INCREDIBLE flowers and service! Cannot say enough about the quality of our arrangements and also, the professionalism of the company. Highly recommend to one and to all!!
