PLEASE stay away from this shop that engages in false advertising. All they care about is making money off of you by using beautiful pictures to bait and switch you - you will get cheap leftover flowers if you are ordering based on what the website shows you. You will get some garbage arrangement that only has carnations and mums, some of the cheapest stems you can get. I ordered a "You are the Best" bundle that included a "Bright and Cheery" arrangement - what was delivered (a surprise gift for an important milestone for my husband) was a garbage arrangement that looked nothing like what was advertised. In fact, Kate, the co-owner offered to send an actual "Bright and Cheery" bouquet to correct the situation - they clearly knew what they were sending wasn't what was advertised! They also didn't write the correct note that I requested in the card I purchased. And to further confirm this false advertising issue they completely changed the description of the product I purchased. Why change the description if I'm a dumb customer that didn't understand that the "You're the Best" bundle and the "Bright and Cheery" arrangement are completely two different products regardless of the cross reference? No need to remove the reference to the "Bright and Cheery" arrangement, don't you think? Please save your money and go elsewhere - we've had great experience with Halsted Flowers and I should have stuck with what I know is great.

Floral wrist corsage- petite & perfect!

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!

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.

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!

wedding reception flowers

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.

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.

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!

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!

Bridesmaid bouquet, head table small arrangement, Bride's bouqet

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.

Yellow pink flowers and long narrow foliage

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 took care of all of our wedding flowers and did a fantastic job! From the very beginning, I enjoyed working with Gretchen because she is creative and so flexible - before and after the contract was signed. My husband's boutonniere got a bit crushed from all the hugs before & during the ceremony, so when we were taking post-ceremony pics behind the church, Flora showed up with a new boutonniere for him and changed it on the spot! Their attention to detail is fabulous! Our reception flowers were great as well, and earned so many compliments from guests. If I had to plan it again, I wouldn't do a thing differently with my floral choices.

I can't say enough good things about Flora. I worked with Randy on the flowers for my October wedding and he was wonderful. Although I know fairly little about flowers (besides what I absolutely love or hate), Randy was able to tune into exactly what my husband and I were looking for-- he really understood our style, our wedding, and our budget and ran with it. At our walkthrough when I questioned adding additional flowers to the ceremony and, while the average florist would have jumped at the chance to do some more flowers and charge me more money, Randy simply told me that he didn't think it was my style and we should forgo it. Thank you, Randy, for caring about making my wedding beautiful and reflective of my style and not making a few extra bucks! The floral arrangements were gorgeous and I was so surprised to see that Randy had considered a lot of the minor details that hadn't even crossed my mind-- he made the event really beautiful and I would recommend his services to any other Chicago bride!

Will never order from them again. Awful presentation and when complained, they barely offered more than an "oops".
