Have been buying bouquets for special occasions here since December. Great selection, my go to flower shop.

Like many other reviews on here, I have waited to write this for awhile in hopes of some sort of resolution, but after no reply from Julie via email or call backs I am posting this review. Unfortunately, our experience with this florist was far from what was promised in our contract. Late bridal party florals: Scheduled for 10:30 AM but did not arrive until noon after many phone calls asking when they would be there, then arrived right as we were leaving for photos. Late arrival to the venue: Contracted arrival was 1:00 PM; the florist did not arrive until around 2:00-2:30 PM, delaying setup and rushing the work. Our ceremony started at 5pm, with guest arrivals starting at 4:30pm, leaving almost no time to complete everything. Unprepared and missing contracted greenery: Ceiling greenery was incomplete and not installed as agreed. Materials were missing, and our coordinator had to purchase supplies and hang greenery herself. Incorrect cocktail table décor: Tables did not match the contract, candles were incomplete, and some tables were left undecorated. Poorly executed welcome sign: Greenery was sparse, visibly clipped together, and did not reflect what was outlined in the contract. Lack of accountability and follow-up: The company stated they would provide proof that the items were executed according to our contract, but they never did and stopped responding altogether. Overall, the florist's lack of preparation, punctuality, execution, and communication caused unnecessary stress on our wedding day. Do not use this company--it is worth spending more elsewhere. read more

I waited to write this, but after months without any response or resolution, I feel it's important to share our experience so other brides can make an informed decision. While the floral arrangements themselves were beautiful, our overall experience with Catherine's Gardens was deeply disappointing and added unnecessary stress to what should have been a joyful day. On our wedding day, our main ceremony flowers were not delivered as scheduled and arrived more than three hours late, despite a paid delivery and setup service and a confirmed timeline. As a result, we had no florals for our wedding photos. Communication throughout the planning process was consistently difficult. Responses were slow or nonexistent, and I had to follow up repeatedly for clarity and confirmation. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, I asked multiple times for a mock-up of our centerpieces to ensure everything aligned with what we had agreed upon, but one was never provided. When we finally saw the centerpieces on the day of the wedding, they did not match the photos, descriptions, or details clearly outlined and agreed upon in our timeline and contract. While florals were present, the overall design and rental items differed significantly from what we planned and paid for, which was extremely disappointing after months of careful preparation. We also paid for an after-reception pickup service. Staff arrived while the wedding was still in progress, dressed very casually, which felt unprofessional and distracting during such an important moment. After the wedding, we reached out multiple times to address these concerns and were told someone would follow up. Despite repeated attempts, we never received a response or resolution. Weddings are emotional, once-in-a-lifetime events, and trust in your vendors matters immensely. Unfortunately, while Catherine's Gardens has the ability to create beautiful flowers, the lack of reliability, communication, and follow-through on agreed-upon details left us feeling let down. I hope sharing this helps future couples avoid a similar experience. read more

The people running the counter were nice. And the arrangement was nice. But all over the shop it says if you're offended by us we'll just laugh at you. And on the register is a jar full of wooden words, "Fuck". I was there for flowers for someone having a really bad time. And if they don't care if their flowers create happiness or if you're even happy what a terrible place. There were other signs in the shop that pretty much said they don't care about you read more

We used Catherine's Gardens for our wedding. Not only was the delivery late, but my husband's boutinerre was busted. Their customer service is somehow worse than their parking lot. read more

They were an hour late delivering our flowers, my bridal bouquet was nothing like I specifically went over and sat down to discuss with inspiration pictures. They took them back and gave me another one which was still nothing like I asked for but it was too late... Then we paid for the boutonnières to have magnets and they delivered with pins! Read the reviews before choosing this florist, they are common for all this. read more

During the wedding planning process, Catherine's Garden was communicative and offered many deals to cut prices off the wedding total. Unfortunately, on my wedding there was a lack of communication. I received a phone call at 11:57 am, that they would be a little late. The flowers were to be delivered by 1 pm. After that I had no contact from the florist or delivery person until I made a call at 2:26 pm and the flowers were still not delivered. This put our timeline behind schedule significantly. After the wedding I contacted Catherine's Garden explaining the situation. At first, I received communication back and was told the delivery person would have to submit call logs that showed delay in delivery. I emailed multiple times in regard to this situation and eventually Catherine's Garden stopped answering and did not take accountability for their tardiness. read more

I don't like to write negative reviews but this was by far our worst vendor experience for our wedding day. She promised me that I could have poppies for my bouquet even though it was later in the summer season (inspo pic attached alongside what I actually got). Her communication was SO awful and I felt so uneasy the weeks leading up to the wedding. I did not want ANY greenery and wanted poppies on their own for my bouquet....not what I got at all. On top of that, she put zero flowers on the head table and my wedding planner could not even find her on the day of the wedding. I reached out to her about this and never heard back from her. It's a shame because I love supporting woman owned small businesses, but the poor communication, poor quality of florals, and poor customer service all around make this a 0/10 recommendation for your wedding day from me. Spend more money if you care about your flowers. read more

For the last few years for Christmas my husband got me a year subscription of monthly flowers from Catherine's Garden. I joked it's very efficient of him because he buys me flowers once but I get flowers 12 times (or 13 if you order the bonus Christmas arrangement which he does). But it's always my favorite gift. They are always such beautiful arrangements and open up to look even better a few days in. They also post specials and contests on their Facebook page that are always fun and unique. read more

I was recommended this place by a recent bride for my wedding so I'm so excited to be working with them! I had a consultation with Julie to figure out my vision for my wedding day. They have so many different options and a bunch of photo albums with the work they've done to look through for inspiration. This was also one of the more reasonable priced options that I came across. So far I've had a great experience. Im not getting married until later this year so I'll definitely come back and update based on my experience during wedding day. read more

Great service with a Smile...Extremely attentive and professional, not to mention the prices are fair, the selection is Beautiful!!! read more

For our wedding flowers, Catherine's Garden was suggested to me by 2 previous brides who loved their florist! Both brides had mentioned their flowers were absolutely stunning, and that their florist had the most competitive pricing. So I went to Catherine's Garden first. I met with Julie and she made me feel so much better and lowered this bride's anxiety. Not only did she give me new ideas, she had also been able to give me an itemized bill the day I met with her. I went to two other florists and Catherine's Garden beat their costs and customer service. The day of the wedding came and we had a minor floral mishap looking in the grand scheme of the day(the flowers didn't get delivered on time. But instead we're delivered to the hotel. Which was fine, we were going there before the venue anyways!) Despite the set back, Catherine's Garden kept in constant contact with us throughout they few hours, and we had our flowers to us in time for the wedding and for our bridal party pictures. The flowers were stunning. Mine, my girls, the guys, the tables, the ceremony, the reception; absolutely gorgeous. In lieu of the small mishap that occurred, Catherine's Garden COMPLETELY MADE UP FOR IT. I respect them so much for the way they executed five star customer service. They gave me a great partial refund on the flowers that came a little late, and they also sent myself, and three family members a BEAUTIFUL holiday arrangement this week for thanksgiving. To Julie and the staff at Catherine's Garden; this is how good business is done. Our day was amazing, despite a small mishap, we received our flowers on time, and nobody but us knew! (That's a perfect day right?!).... however, the way you responded and handled the situation; I will absolutely recommend and use you in the future. Thank you so much! read more

My dear friend sent me no vase flowers today and I am so impressed! The roses smell fabulous and the flowers were so fresh!

I ordered Christmas arrangements for my mother and mother in law in December 2019 through Teleflora. Neither arrangement met with my satisfaction. When I contacted Catherine's Gardens, as they supposedly have a 100% guarantee, the customer service person there was rude and completely unwilling to take responsibility for either arrangement, both of which looked very unprofessional. One arrangement did not even contain any greenery! Neither arrangement looked like the photo arrangement on the Teleflora website. Both arrangements were supposed to contain white roses, but sadly, this florist substituted with less expensive flowers like carnations and/or chrysanthemums. I expected and paid for white roses, which is why I chose this particular arrangement on the Teleflora website. Both orders were also delivered on the WRONG dates! Thankfully, Teleflora was kindly willing to issues us partial credits for both arrangements! Their customer service reps deserve kudos for doing the right thing and assuring complete customer satisfaction, unlike Catherine's Gardens, who refused to be accountable for the unprofessional and mediocre arrangements and the delivery date errors! I have purchased more professional bouquets and arrangements from Costco or Trader Joe's that are far less expensive. Christmas only comes once a year and all I can say is...BUYER BEWARE! Be sure you actually get the flowers you order and pay for! Pictures are worth a thousand words! See for yourself below! read more

Catherine's garden was recommended to me by 2 other brides and I am so glad I listened. Julie went over every detail and was accommodating with any changes you wanted to make. They also give you a mock bouquet and is a perfect way to see your florals before the big day and make any adjustment's. The best and most reasonable floral. 100% would choose them again. every time I went in for a meeting I left with a bouquet of flowers, awesome bonus and great customer appreciation. read more

Me and my husband had our wedding back in 10/09/21 and used Catherine's Garden for our floral needs!

Can't say enough wonderful things about Catherine's Garden!

I actually love this place. Maybe they've gotten more popular since I've last used them but I used to just walk in a make a quick bouquet all the time but the past two times I have been there they haven't even wanted to bother with my service. Many flower shops I have been to allow me to make a quick bouquet and move on with my life..in their defense they were working on a wedding but maybe they should have closed until they were available? read more

I'm a few months late but Catherine's Garden did my wedding in August of 2018. They did an absolutely phenomenal job! From the consultation with Julie to the actual delivery of the arrangements. Julie took her time to explain everything I needed to know when choosing arrangements and completely understood my vision. I felt like I had an extra wedding planner. The arrangements were gorgeous and my bouquet was way more than I could imagine it to turn out! Thanks sooo much Catherine's Garden for helping my dream come true. read more

Catherine's Garden - Beautiful arrangement made by Catherine's garden - Florists Near Me - Oak Forest, Illinois

I came to Catherine's because someone referred me. I was told that she'll give you what you want at an affordable price and that's JUST WHAT HAPPENED!! My flowers turned out GREAT for my wedding! I did read some of the other reviews and as a result I became very involved with my details. Julie is great but don't really make too many recommendations, I believe that's out of fear but whatever. When you come here you need to be very precise with what you'll like... You need to know, don't count on them to pick anything for you. I thought I could tell my ideas and leave it in her hands but she wasn't having that! Lol and I can honestly see why. I'm sure she doesn't want to get blamed for anything that's not up to par. I gave it 4 stars because I feel like, 1. She wasn't very helpful with ideas and suggestions (although she listens to what you want) and 2. The dogs can be kind of scary but it does give the place a home/cozy feel. All in all, the flowers on my wedding day were PERFECT!! read more

Would not recommend for flower preservation!! Used Catherine's Gardens to preserve my wedding flowers. I paid upfront and was given a timeline of 3 months. After 5 months I hadn't heard from the company so I reached out and they said they had an issue with the frame breaking, so it would take longer than expected. Two more months pass, and they still can't get me my flowers because it's Mother's Day... (I've been waiting since November at this point). The frame of preserved flowers was finally delivered in June and they WERE NOT MY FLOWERS. After reaching out several times to ask what had happened and having minimal response or assistance, they blamed it on a third party floral preservation company? Never offered any sort of refund or apology... There was also a piece of tissue paper stuck in the frame. Attached is a picture of my wedding flowers and the frame with the flowers they tried to pass as mine. Mostly just heartbroken that my flowers were lost due to this because I loved them so much. read more

Catherine's Gardens is a rare gem of a flower shop, with staff that genuinely care about reaching out to their community. I've always ordered birthday flowers through Catherine's Gardens, and so, naturally, I had them do my wedding flowers. I couldn't have asked for flowers better matched my vision! Julie can work wonders. You give her a blank slate, and she creates magic. I received endless compliments on my bouquet- every single individual commented on how aesthetic the arrangement was! Unlike most florists, Julie will also go to extreme lengths to help you get the goal you want. Julie did the flowers for my late father's funeral. We wanted something special in his memory. Because my father was a navy veteran, Julie proposed making an American flag out of flowers- people couldn't believe that the flowers were real! Having such a sentimental piece really helped us to cope with such a difficult time. I also am a fan of theirs on Facebook, and I know that they often do loads of charity work. Last time I checked, they donated flowers to Ronald McDonald's house. Seeing some of these reviews written by crazy brides makes me wonder if we've even gone to the same shop! Catherine's Gardens is, in many ways, a gem to the community. I've never met a nicer, kinder team! read more

Absolutely horrific customer service, be careful talking to Ashley. Wanted to purchase some flowers for my mother and some were dead on arrival. What was stated in the ad was definitely not what was delivered. Different flowers were put into the arrangement, different colored and shaped vase, and it was literally miniature compared to what was advertised. Asked for a full or partial refund, and then they compared it to returning something you already ate. (Which makes no sense.) Never tried to understand or even say sorry. Be careful purchasing from this shop, would hate to see a wedding or funeral dragged down by the poor quality of flowers from this shop. read more

Catherine's Gardens was our wedding florist and they did an AMAZING job for our wedding on 5-21-22! They did a great job finding the perfect flowers to really bring the whole day together. I gave them a color swatch for my bridesmaid dresses and they matched the accent color in the bouquets perfectly. I loved that they did a trial bridal bouquet before my wedding as part of our package to make sure no adjustments needed to be made before the big day. They made sure my bridal bouquet charm was attached beautifully and provided greenery for our wedding cake that matched the picture I showed them almost exactly. The tables and floral accents we had at our reception (some involving reusing bridesmaid bouquets as part of the table decor) turned out beautiful. I loved that we could get vases for the table through them. Although we didn't need to use this service- they offer a clean-up service if you use any of their rentals at the conclusion of the reception. Delivery was seamless and I couldn't have been happier with the end product! Their rates were reasonable and their communication (with the ability to make any adjustments easily) really made everything all the more worthwhile. I highly recommend them!! read more

I ordered flowers for a funeral for a dear friend who lost her son when he was way too young. I was out of town and not able to attend the service and wanted to make sure she knew I was thinking of her by sending flowers. The visitation started at 9 a.m. The service was over at 12:00 noon. The flowers arrived at the funeral home at 11:57 a.m. Three minutes before the service was over. Because the flowers arrived before the end of the service Catherine's Gardens believed they fulfilled their obligation. I called around 10:00 a.m. asking if they could deliver soon and was told no. This was done through FTD. FTD refunded my money ($120) but I am sure Catherine's Gardens we're still paid. It was wonderful that this flower shop could make such a difficult time even more painful for me and my friends family. I will never order through them again. If I use FTD again I will require that they not order through Catherine's Gardens. If you still order through this place, good luck. read more

Julie and her staff did a fantastic job with the flowers and decor for our October 2010 wedding. During my consultation, Julie helped me figure out how to bring my very vague ideas to life. Even better, when she told me the price, I was floored. The pricing is very reasonable compared to what I had found elsewhere. The day of our wedding, I was brought to tears when I saw our flowers. They were gorgeous and looked amazing all day (and night) long. The ceremony decor was exactly what I had hoped for, as well. Would highly recommend them. read more

Owner, Julie and her staff always go above and beyond. I have been ordering from Catherine's Garden's since the beginning and I'd never go anywhere else in the Chicagoland area! Her prices are fantastic - quality is great and the end result is ALWAYS sensational. She's easy to work with and her staff is too - I never worry about the condition of flowers ordered because I know no matter what I order or when - Julie will do an awesome job designing a piece that's perfect in every way! You can't go wrong with Catherine's Gardens! read more

I had a great experience with Catherine's Gardens. I've always loved daisies and wanted them to be a prevalent part of our wedding. I came into the consultation with a lot of specific ideas about how I wanted the flowers to be done, and they were more than accommodating. Julie helped us hammer out some of the smaller details, and we left the consultation confident that our flowers were going to be just right on the big day. Catherine's Garden did an amazing job with the flowers for both our ceremony and reception. They were able to achieve a simple look while maintaining the level of elegance we wanted to achieve. I've also received flowers from Catherine's Gardens as gifts on a few different occasions. They arrangements have always been beautiful and the flowers were long-lasting. I can say that I recommend them for both big events and those times when you want to send a great arrangement to someone. read more

A few months ago, I was dealing with some pretty heavy stuff, and to cheer me up, a friend sent me not just a beautiful floral arrangement, but some much-needed donuts that were delivered to me along with the flowers. The flowers were easily among the prettiest I've ever received. I liked them so much that, when my friend had a baby recently, I couldn't help but send her flowers from Catherine's. Ordering over the phone was easy enough, even though I called at what sounded like a busy time. The woman I spoke with was friendly, professional, and helpful. I didn't know exactly what I wanted, so I appreciated how patient she was with me, and that she didn't try to upsell me at all. After receiving my flowers, my friend texted me a picture to say "thank you" and I was really pleased with how the arrangement looked. My wallet was pleased too, because Catherine's Gardens is a good bit less expensive than the place I had previously ordered from. Next time I have an occasion to order flowers, I'll definitely be giving Julie and her staff my business again. read more

All of you out there... Please take time to read this. I live in oak forest and my family is very versed in flowers. Both my sister and I have won beautification awards from the city as flowers are our thing. This place was recommended by a friend who got a bouquet of roses. We used them for my wedding which was this past Saturday August 15, 2015. Their pricing was so reasonable. We also used them as I roped my sister into it for my wedding shower. You ask why two events? We went there for the wedding. Julie was great with her knowledge, color books, etc and then gives you a prepay deal and discount for other events. By the time I saw the shower outcome I couldn't break the contract. Sure it was great considering that my other floral quote was $1,500 more. Wedding shower... Tiffany theme stunning expensive shower my sister threw me. The centerpieces were falling apart - the bling wrap around the vase. Event didn't even start and my sister had to tape them. The flowers did not look fresh and looked like they had been sitting out and were old. Fell apart the next day which of you order fresh flowers they do not do. Everything looked yellow when it was supposed to be white. This owner makes promises she does not keep not to mention her staff. The favors were the absolute worst at the shower. My sister wanted succulents from Martha Stewart magazine in the shape of hearts with thank yous on them. She brought the pic in and Julie said she could do it. My sister asked if she was sure because she would have ordered them and done it herself. For the cost of three dollars a favor see what we wanted and what we got. Hell, my sister made an entire candy table with custom fabric and wall words so she surely would have done the favors too. Julie is no where to be seen of or heard from on your event day. You deal with the minions that work for her. And yeah, she offered a hundred off and my sister said take it and shove it up your ass. She gave me the hundred off on the wedding charges. Wedding day... All of the flowers were not there when promised. Why? She knew she changed things so you are stuck. I'm an attorney and I tell it like it is. So here it is... I rewrote my contract with her in type and went over it explicitly because hers had scratches everywhere. I did this after the shower fiasco so nothing was unclear and made three trips in there. I talked to her staff Hannah about how I wanted white flowers nothing yellow but she didn't have any of the whites when I came on there to make sure. Convenient. I also had mocks done of my favors in three different flowers to decide. She up charged me for those and I paid. Got pics and everything. So the big day...Bouquet was yellow looking roses. Didn't yet see the favors. Called as I was trying to take pics. Said I got the whitest roses there were. Which when I went in the store they have a color rose chart on the wall. The roses were not like it. I asked the video guy and photographer have they seen whiter as the photo flowers all the time. Neither one would say anything for fear I would be pissed then I was as my dress was white. I called and they sent over daisies which were white to remedy my upset at my request of course. But did not use as there was nothing formal about them. Next centerpieces... They were lovely To her credit. Probably the best of the whole experience but she changed vases on me which should have been told. I ordered Eiffel Tower vases (more expensive) and got long cylinders. The bracelets for my sisters and bridal party bouquet were all nice. The favors again not what was asked or pictured. She charged me for three lisanthis to be in the mini watering cans. I ended up with a hodgepodge of purple flowers. The tent card table - I ordered a black tree with mini lanterns, lanterns at her suggestion. I thought it would be metal. Never did I think it would be a cheap plastic pot with branches I could have taken and sprayed with paint for eighty dollars. My vision was the brown tree in the things remembered store on black with the plaque of our story begins here in front of it. Of course the guests don't know any better but you do and that is all that matters. Non wedding...we ordered flowers around the same time for initial consult. The telafloral bouquet was great but a florist in Indianapolis did it as they are stock orders. The local bouquet for Mother's Day of rainbow tulips meaning different colored ones was a disaster. Catherines did those. It is obvious to me after reading reviews which I did not that 75 percent here think it is a bad experience. Trust me if you know flowers and love flowers especially for events as showers and weddings, this is not the place for you. If you don't know crap about flowers, don't care and like switch ups this is the place for you. Walk in walk out stuff at best. When I have time i will write the knot about my experience as well as the city of oak forest as my town wants us to support local businesses read more

So, I was super-duper nervous for using Catherine's Garden since there are so many crazy reviews on Yelp about this florist, however I just had my wedding on 11/19/2016, and I think they did great. My flowers were beautiful--and Julie worked with me to stay within my budget. There were some mishaps with my bouquet such as the brooch and some of the bud falling out before the ceremony, but I don't expect flowers to stay perfect! We had two types of arrangements on each table at the reception, plus bridal party flowers, cake flowers, and all of them were beautiful. Only complaint I really had were the guy's boutonnieres. They were made so tiny, that they shriveled up and died not even halfway through the day, and many of them were so small they fell off and were lost before the end of the night. Overall, I think that Julie is reasonable and will work within your budget, and my reception and ceremony flowers were very beautiful. I'd book with them again! Don't get too scared with the negative reviews. Just make sure that everything you want is in your contract and make several stops to the shop to clarify details that you want to make sure get put together correctly. read more

Julie, Stephanie, and the rest of the staff have always done a phenomenal job with our quarterly corporate events in the Chicago-area and I am very appreciative of how easy they make the process of booking, delivering, and setting up our events every quarter. They've made it so easy to work with especially since we are a company that is out of state. Julie and her team have always taken the time to understand what our needs are, make a solid recommendation and they always exceed our expectations in terms of quality and working within our budget. They always give me one less thing to worry about when I land in Chicago from DC which is appreciated, keep up the great work Julie and team! read more

Good: -Inexpensive when trying to budget a wedding. Half the price of other vendors. -will do a mock bouquet -discounts for paying upfront -easy consultation -nice Bad: -mock was completely different than what I got on the wedding day. My hour trip to pick up the mock was not worth it. -center pieces were supposed to be the same as the bridal party bouquets, but larger. They were not even close. I don't think they had 1 flower that was the same. - card table flowers were supposed to be the same as bridal bouquets but this was COMPLETELY different. My colors were deep reddish purple and white. These were light pink and green. The flowers were beautiful and I didn't care that much that they were different than what I had picked out. They seemed fresh and were there on time which is HUGE for wedding vendors. I would recommend them if you are NOT a picky bride and looking to save some cash. read more

I ordered flowers for a friend in the hospital. She texted me a pic to thank me. The flowers looked NOTHING like what I saw on the website when I ordered. I called to complain and the person I spoke with said they substituted, making sure I got my money's worth. Maybe I did, but I still thought the final product looked liked something I could have put together myself by getting flowers from the Jewel. Nothing special, just some lilies, a rose and alosteria. While the vase was nice and appeared to be an upgrade, a ribbon would have been a nice touch, as was in the picture. Lastly, delivery was a day later than requested, although this could have been an issue with the hospital, not the florist. Given the choice of sending flowers in the area again, I will try another florist. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Catherine's Garden. They provided all of the flowers for our wedding and they were wonderful from beginning to end. They were also significantly less expensive than other florists we had consulted with. We had a few last minute changes/additions, and they accommodated them without a problem. We gave a general idea of colors and flowers we wanted, and the florists made beautiful creations. We got so many compliments on all the flowers! read more
