Free wedding consultations are available to interested couples, with special consideration given to creating custom designs to match the mood and energy of the event. The pair offers their creations both in-store and online, offering custom floral arrangements and bouquets for holidays, weddings, funerals, special occasions, corporate events, photoshoots and more. “We always try to compete with ourselves to be better and serve better each day, going that extra mile with our customers to make them feel in an in-home environment.”Īquarela Gifts and Flowers was created by mother-daughter duo Alejandra and Dorys Gonzalez, who share their passion for flowers through whimsical custom designs.
We handpick the flowers from our suppliers at least three times a week, giving us the opportunity to get fresh and unique flowers,” said Gonzalez. “Mixing textures and colors is our everyday oxygen. In 2014 in the United States, the pair began offering their floral creations out of their garage-and within a two years established their boutique in Old Town Monrovia serving all of Los Angeles. That penchant for switching things up is reflective in both women’s careers-before emigrating from Venezuela, Ale was an economist while Dorys worked as a college professor. I’ve always wanted to explore that creative side, and it started by mixing colors on paper.” “The name came to mind after learning to paint flowers and plants in watercolor at the Los Angeles Arboretum. “Aquarela is a translation of ‘watercolor’ in Spanish with a twist-changing the ‘c’ in acuarela for a ‘q’ for easier pronunciation in English,” explained Ale Gonzalez. The creative outlet of mother-daughter duo Alejandra (Ale) and Dorys Gonzalez, this flower shop puts a whimsical spin on everything from their designs to business name.
Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote that “the world laughs in flowers”-a sentiment well-captured by Aquarela Gifts and Flowers in Monrovia.
