Ive had years of great experiences at Aces, and with the owner years prior in Los Gatos. She is very knowledgeable, has nice taste, and a heart for the Aptos community. Although Ive moved away, I still order flowers for delivery from Aces.

I received an absolutely gorgeous bouquet from my husband after I had to have surgery. Ace's did a breathtaking arrangement that lifted my spirits completely. As a former florist I have my opinions on color, texture, and variation, and your work was outstanding. We had not been to Ace's before so it was a wonderful surprise for me and a great experience for both us of. We will be back!! Thank you so much for an elegant and graceful arrangement!

What a great florist to order from. I actually talked to a person around noon, told her my needs, and flowers were delivered the same day. Thank you so much. I would definitely recommend.
