I hired St. Charles Florist for my wedding arch and sweetheart table florals. I grew up going to…read morethe Sandwich Fair, and each year my family always admired John Windisch's arrangements. I am so grateful for the quick thinking of John and his team on my wedding day. We got married in Rockford, and the arch my husband and I brought broke under the weight of the flowers. John contacted someone he knew in the area who not only loaned us an arch, but brought it to the venue, and his driver went to work adapting the arrangement to the new structure. This happened while we were taking pictures so I didn't have my phone on me, but I was very pleased with the craftsmanship of their arrangements as well as their initiative to take control of the situation. We loved our flowers so much that we had some preserved in resin by another vendor. Thank you so much for your beautiful work and professionalism, down to the eleventh hour.

Debi is a talented, experienced, and one-of-a-kind florist…read more She is such a pleasure to work with! She did the flowers for my wedding. They were absolutely stunning. I showed Debi pictures of some flower ideas. The actual bouquet was even more beautiful! She combines colors and types of flowers perfectly and with such expertise. I got so many compliments on my flowers. We also get Mother's Day flowers from Debi, and our moms love them. We got our friend flowers for her PhD graduation, and the custom bouquet Debi made was by far the most gorgeous there. :) In addition to Debi's wide knowledge of flowers, her amazing customer service is what truly sets her apart. It is a privilege working with her. So glad she is so close in South Elgin.

If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would! I needed inexpensive floral centerpieces for an…read moreevent and I checked with so many florists in the area. It seemed the other florists didn't want to work with me and I think it was because of my low budget. Some said they would sell me flowers for me to make the centerpieces myself, but then they would say that the flowers I wanted wouldn't arrive in time--it was too late to get what I wanted by the date of my event. I resolved to the fact that I would just buy grocery store flowers, whatever they had in stock, and make the arrangements myself. But then I connected with Breanne, the owner of Floral Excellence in South Elgin, and I'm so glad I did! I told Breanne what my budget was, what I was looking for, and when I needed them, which was by the way, not a very high budget, and relatively last minute--within a couple weeks of my event. I expected her to give me the same story as the other florists, but Breanne basically said she WANTED to make this happen for me and she WOULD make it happen!!! When no other florists would! She came up with a lovely design for each centerpiece, it was the colors I wanted, it was within my budget, included the labor for them to arrange the flowers (not just me purchasing the flowers and making them myself), and they delivered them to my party venue! When I arrived at the venue for my event, her girl Eryn had set them up so pretty on all the guest tables and display tables and they were so lovely! They were perfect! When I felt that no other florist was interested in helping me, Floral Excellence WANTED to make my arrangements and did them so lovely! I would highly recommend them for any event, big or small. They clearly go above and beyond, they listen to what your needs are, and they make sure your event, no matter what it is, is a beautiful one! I will definitely use them again! Thank you Breanne and Eryn from Floral Excellence!!!

I was so impressed on her knowledge of florals! She also showed me examples of the flowers she would use to put together my bouquet.

Peggy stayed at our venue throughout the wedding day and helped our wedding party and parents with their corsages/boutonnières, florals for our cake, moving florals from our arch to the sweetheart table, decorating the hanging wreath for our venue, etc. Peggy was so kind! We highly recommend her for your wedding!! :) P.S. All photos were taken by our photographer, John Foley.
