    Floral wrist corsage- petite & perfect!
    Linda P.

    Flora never disappoints! They are my go-to for any special occasion. They in particular do an amazing job on dance flowers (nosegays, boutonnières). These were for my son's homecoming - unique & perfect for that special night...

    Beautiful anniversary bouquet!

    Wonderful shop that makes beautiful, unique, long-lasting arrangements! My husband has ordered bouquets from Flora for our past several "special occasions." The bouquets are always so pretty and creative! I also recently ordered a small arrangement for Thanksgiving, which was absolutely perfect for brightening up our holiday. The flowers are still on our counter going strong 10 days later. We have used their curbside pickup this year, which has been super convenient (and felt very safe). They also offer delivery and have an online shop. Highly recommend ordering from Flora for your next special occasion OR just to liven up your space!

    Seasonal Dried Flower Bouquet

    I called Flora for a new dried bouquet for my coffee table. They were super detailed and asked a lot of questions about what I wanted and they delivered! The bouquet is perfect and the service was incredible!

    Falling apart on the 7th day!

    My husband and son picked up some flowers for me on Mothers day. Apparently the lady there was abrupt and didn't really offer any suggestions. My husband chose some peonies and my son chose some daisies. When my son brought me the bouquet, I wouldn't have guessed it was from a reputed florist. The flowers were just tied together with some leaves, some of them brown or munched on by worms. It wasn't an "arrangement." I don't know if it was because they were bought on a busy day or if that is how they do it. Anyways, it didn't look worth the money that my husband spend on them. P.s They didn't provide any plant food with the flowers. The flowers started drooping by day 5.

    Kate and the whole team at Flora are absolutely amazing. Our wedding day was made perfect by this flexible and understanding team! Kate was able to pick the most perfect florals for my unique and dusty wedding bouquet. The groomsmen boutonnieres were a huge hit and absolutely perfect. Kate was very accommodating throughout the process and I am so thankful we chose her for our big day. They set up the greenery for our arch and welcome sign as well as our sweetheart table which was very helpful. We had beautiful orchid centerpieces brought in that our guests are still gushing over. Thank you so much Kate, we are forever thankful!

    Flora is the best flower shop in Chicago. The owners here so professional. We order a lot flowers from Flora for all our occasions. Thay was doing so great job, flowers always fresh and looks fantastic. Sarah and Kate always gives great recommendations for flowers what will look better on your table for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Thay go every detail to make you so special even you not have big budget. We highly recommend this place to everyone. Kate and Sarah best florist I know.

    Stunning, unique bouquet. I called to place the order because it was a custom design. I wanted something delivered to my daughter to lift her spirits. She owns a lovely pink vase and has wanted to fill it with yellow flowers. Wow. She sent pictures to me immediately, astounded. This is my first yelp review ever. I never thought a flower bouquet would be the reason to start, but they are brilliant at Flora.

    Flora did the flowers for my wedding and they really made it such an amazing event. After calling/visiting a dozen places in the city for wedding flowers, Flora really seemed to be the best quality for a reasonable price. They also were willing to work with me when their initial budget was $1,000 more than I wanted to pay. :) I worked with Suzanna who was great! I told her I didn't want big, boring flowers that everyone has at their wedding receptions. As a person with no flower knowledge, I really needed help especially since I had no idea what I wanted--I just knew what I didn't want. Suzanna came up with interesting designs from submerged flowers to limes in a huge vase at the bar to gerbera daisies popping out of wheat grass (my favorite!). They did a fantastic job setting up our venue and it was beyond what I expected when I arrived. Even my mother-in-law that is crazy about flowers loved them. The bridesmaid bouquets were not exactly what I invisioned. They weren't straight across at the top or cylindrical but had flowers popping out at all heights. Turns out that this is how the flowers are naturally grown. Well, I was unhappy and called Suzanna 30 minutes before the wedding ceremony. She flew to the church and fixed all of my bridesmaid bouquets on the spot.

    Beautiful bridal bouquet!

    We're also not what I would consider 'flower people'--we hadn't planned on spending much on our wedding flowers, and didn't really think they'd be that important to us when we started wedding planning. However, as we started researching/interviewing florists and looking at photos for inspiration, we quickly realized we have very specific, modern taste in floral design and maybe they were more important to us than we initially thought. That being said, we didn't quite have it in the budget to go all out on some crazy expensive city florist, so we started looking in the 'burbs. We met with two florists, both of whom didn't really 'get' our vision. Too traditional for us...booooring. Then, we found Flora. We gave them a shot, and we are SO glad we did! Our initial meeting with Suzanna was great--she understood what we were looking for better than we could describe it ourselves! And as for our budget, she was able to work with us to make sure that we kept on track. She even suggested cost-cutting strategies! Working with Suzanna was smooth and easy--she was a saint, patiently dealing with our various changes and the ups-and-downs of our ever-dwindling budget. She was totally understanding and always helpful via e-mail, on the phone, AND in person. By the time our flowers arrived on our big day, I was FLOORED by how beautiful they were! My bouquet was EXACTLY what I wanted, and then some! Everything turned out wonderfully--bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, high and low centerpieces, etc., etc...We couldn't have asked for anything more! But I think what speaks most to the talent of this team is our focal pieces for our ceremony. We were very vague about what we wanted, and somehow they created these AMAZING, funky, perfect focal pieces that just blew us away, and matched the rest of our event and decor perfectly. I am still totally shocked at how great they looked when I see them in photos. We were also in awe of how they transformed our cake from a plain, white, square-tiered cake to something totally GORGEOUS! We have gotten so many compliments on how beautiful our cake was! They played off of the flowers from the rest of the event and worked with our panda couple cake topper to make the cake a stand-out part of our reception. Stunning. They found really creative ways to incorporate bamboo into our cake, low centerpieces, and the focal pieces! I guess the lesson here is--you CAN find an affordable, talented florist in the city that will work with you to make the flowers for your event unique and beautiful! Try Flora!

    I worked with Randy at Flora for my wedding at the end of June. We selected Flora originally for Randy's ability to understand the look & feel we wanted and run with it. Flora is five stars for the following reasons: 1. Fantastic ability to visualize and create unique arrangements. We brought in one or two images of what we really liked to provide inspiration. 2. Openness to help you work within your budget and maximize the impact. 3. Reasonably priced given the quality of the flowers and design 4. Wonderful customer service to revise. We ordered a sample arrangement (highly recommended for any bride with any florist) and then worked with Randy to make adjustments based on what we like and what we didn't. He ordered a set of some different flowers for us to play with when I came into the store to achieve the vision. 5. Dependable and reliable from initial consultation through to delivery. Also, each boutonniere even had a name attached since the groom, father of the bride, ushers, and groomsmen each had slightly different versions of the same theme. 6. Great flower selection in the store with a really lush feeling Subtracted one star because the contracts were not always consistent from one to the next, so I needed to double check them for inconsistencies. I would definitely use them again for all of my flower needs, and would trust their creative inspiration to develop beautiful, unique and contemporary/modern arrangements.

    Flora Chicago - Elegant

    I live in California, but have friends and people I do business with. Several years ago I wanted to send Flowers to the wife of Jazz Showcase owner, Wayne Segal. She is a pretty special person and did me a big favor taking care of a bet I lost to someone that hangs at the Showcase every Thursday night; she provided a credit to him. For all her, Kwan's work and effort, I wanted to send her flowers. Not being familiar with the florists there I searched, read reviews, and started calling around. Most of the people were pretty cool, but I hit it off with Flora owner Suzanna. Because the Jazz Showcase didn't open until 7:30...no one is there for deliveries until way after florists deliver; Suzanna said she would find a way...and she did. Without getting into detail...she went out of her way to make sure they were delivered in a PERFECT WAY. That's an example of her - FLORA service. The flowers she designed and delivered to Kwan were elegant and gorgeous...totally represented how I felt. I could not find the picture Kwan sent to me...but they were mixed greens with beautiful spring calla lilies (baby)...so delicate just perfect. This was followed up with another arrangement to Jazz Showcase's main man, Chuck who retired...had to send him an arrangement from Flora too. They were beautiful and 'masculine'...lol...they did a great job with perfect delivery service on his last night. Last week I called Flora for a friend in Chicago to see if they could design, arrange, and deliver 7 arrangements for doctors at Northwestern on Tuesday April 18, 2017. I also asked if they wouldn't mind adding candy to the deliveries. I sent 18 lbs. of See's Candy to Flora to accompany the individual floral arrangements. Done deal!!! FLOWERS WERE A BIG HIT!!! I have enclosed pictures...but I can't create an image of the excitement Flora's beautiful arrangements generated. Every single person who works at Flora from the owner Suzanna to Ann and staff (especially delivery person who's name I'm ashamed to say I don't know), are not only creative and willing to do whatever it takes to make the customer happy are truly "old-school" PROFESSIONALS. I love them and grateful to Flora for their talent, making sure 'everyone - sender + receiver' are happy, and best ever SERVICE.

    It's always weird to me when businesses don't let me spend my own money with them. I tried to buy…read moresome flowers but it was only $15. I went to pay and was told it was a $25 minimum. It's just weird at this point in time. Especially with fifty other flower shops to choose from.

    If you're looking for beautiful, long-lasting flowers..this is the place for you. If you are…read morelooking for customer service..RUN elsewhere. We stopped in Thursday before Mother's Day on a large last minute decoration request for our job. It was my first time there and I've never bought flowers in bulk so it took us some time asking questions and running numbers. The first interaction that left a bad taste in my mouth was a worker barking at me to stay away from the carnation buckets that another worker had said I could choose from. "There's nothing back there for little girls" was his way of telling me, a 33 yr old WOMAN, not to pick from the carnations. I wanted to immediately leave, but knew we needed these flowers and this may be the only place we can find a large amount last minute. Then, when we finally were ready to check out, the owner (or the man behind the desk) was adamant that our client's card numbers weren't going to work because he needed 16 digits. I explained AMEX only has 15. It seems their systems are dated, so the owner had to call the card reader vendor which held things up and a line began to form. We didn't want to cause stress for anyone so we assured him multiple times he can take other guests before us so they didn't need to wait. He declined and continued to insist that it was our fault we didn't have the correct card numbers, but continued to speak with the vendor (who later confirmed that AX only has 15 numbers...). None of the other customers were complaining at all..but the WORKERS started making unnecessary and rude comments about us and how long it was taking. I was on the phone with my boss trying to figure out another option while the owner was on the phone with the vendor and things were feeling really stressful already, let alone having staff talk about us in front of the entire store. "This has turned into so much of a nightmare." "This is ridiculous." I told one of them that we had offered for others to go ahead of us in line, but he said they couldn't because the car had been loaded already. Finally, I was so stressed that I put it on my personal credit card just to get out of there. Rushed out of there with my receipt only to see they had unloaded my car- so now I had to wait for them to reload...after they were rushing us! Never in my life have I been heckled at by the employees of a business where I am spending $1000...I was shocked and felt disrespected..like they thought we didn't have the money to cover our bill, and that just because we took longer than an average transaction, we were inconveniencing them. The only reason I decided to still purchase with them is because it was last minute and right before Mother's Day and our options were slim. But to choose to return...absolutely not.
