We decided to go with Flowers with Feeling, because we felt that they were the most flexible with our budget. We showed Tammy pictures, and she seemed to think that was do-able. The first meeting went fine. But then when it came to the showing of the centerpieces, they were the wrong shade and they were puny. They were so small. When talking about making them any larger, it seemed like doubling was our only option. But since they had a 50% deposit, we were stuck with them. So we decided to just cut the reception flowers. Before the wedding, they seemed fine with all the changes that I made and generally communications (although it was harder to get a hold of Tammy during the summer), but the day of the wedding there was no communication. I never saw the flower person. We couldn't find the corsages and boutonnieres, and when we did, they were all mixed up (and some of them had colors that were never discussed). It was all a mess. People didn't get their pins, and it was horrible. The pew bows we had were small and unattractive, and the altar arrangements were horrible. They were supposed to be a collection of ivory flowers accented with greenery, but it was more like a huge mass of cheap greenery. The cake flowers were nothing like the flowers we were supposed to get, and for $40, we got what looked like a pile of limp hydrangea petals. There were also dahlias there, even though we didn't want any dahlias on the cake. My bridesmaids' "bouquets" were 5 stems of flowers wrapped together, and were very small and pathetic. My red rose bouquet looked amazing, but that was the only thing that I was happy with from the florist. I was very disappointed overall.

Working with Flowers With Feeling and Tammy was truly a breath of fresh air. They were completely focussed on doing exactly what I wanted and making me happy... Tammy was happy to offer suggestions, but never tried to persuade me away from what i wanted. I would highly recommend Flowers with Feeling to anyone looking for a "dream wedding" but within a reasonable budget. I also visited some of the "bigger names" florists in Chicago and was put off by their way of doing business(i.e. "give me a deposit now and then we'll tell you what you want.") Flowers With Feeling made me feel comfortable and exceeded my expectations on the day of the wedding!

The flowers were beautiful at our wedding. We got a lot of compliments on the centerpieces. Working with Tammy was great, she listened to what we had to say and created centerpieces based on our likes and dislikes. She is very experienced and gave us great advice on what would look good.

I really enjoyed working with Tammy at Flowers with Feelings. She was very creative - and was more than willing to work within our budget. And the result on the day was better than I could have even imagined....I was so happy with our centrepieces and with the bouquets.
I would highly recommend Flowers with Feelings!

Great job -- one of the best vendors at our wedding. Tammy was prompt, always available and sent an updated order document to confirm changes along the way. They are not arrogant as many wedding vendors are and the flowers were gorgeous! I would absolutely recommend Flowers with Feeling for any event.

Tammy was very patient as I tried to describe what I was looking for. When the flowers showed up the morning of the wedding, they were EXACTLY what I had wanted!

I hired them two weeks before the wedding for my step daughhter after finding out that she did not have any flower for her wedding.
They were responsive and deleivered on everything promised while staying within my budget. The bouquets and corsages were beautifuland uniquly designed.

Flowers with Feeling created the wedding atmosphere of my dreams with soft candle light and stunningly simple submereged flower arrangements. When the opened the doors for my ceremony the sight absolutely took my breath away: chiffon chuppa, wide isle runner, candle light glow. They made a ceremony packed with 250 people so so intimate - which is exactly what I wanted. They somehow turned my ceremony room into an amazing reception in just an hour complete with large vases and submereged flowers alternating tables. It was the perfect blend of modern and romantic. Tammy at Flowers with Feeling listened to my every wish and dream and made them a reality....it was an absolute dream.

I would recommend Flowers with Feeling to anyone getting married or having a special event. The flowers and arrangements were stunning, and the ease of dealing with Jeff and Tammy made for a great event. My wedding was 8 years ago, and I still hear comments about how beautiful the day was and I think the flowers were a big part of that.
