The Best Wedding Florists in Chicago

Two of My Chicago Favorites

Sophia S. Mark
Chicago is home to a huge variety of florists who all work with the same flowers, but call on different sources of inspiration to create beautiful wedding flowers. From romantic to elegant, Chicago wedding florists can create it all.

If you are planning your own wedding in Chicago and are looking for the perfect florist to do your wedding flower, here are two of my favorite flower shops. Each offers very different service and designs, but they are both excellent at what they do.

Dilly Lilly
Dilly Lilly is quickly becoming one of Chicago's best and well known wedding florists, an area it excels at. From the moment you step into the romantic little flower shop, you will want Dilly Lilly to provide you with your wedding flowers, and perhaps flowers for life. Lush, beautiful, whimsical and romantic are all words that describe the floral arrangements designed by Dilly Lilly.

The selection of flowers is almost limitless, is you need it for your wedding the store will provide it. But the best part of Dilly Lilly is the creative side. If you can dream it, Dilly Lilly can create it. And for the uncreative brides, whatever you can't dream but think you want, Dilly Lilly will dream up for you.

Whenever I have visited the shop I have received the best customer service, even those times I just stopped in to browse the new artist additions. I don't encourage indecisive brides to change their minds on the wedding flowers, but last year my friend made some last minute decisions that I never thought the florist would do. Not only did the florist agree to the changes, but they made a few suggestions to really make the flowers appear at their best-- all last minute.

Choose Dilly Lilly for their personal touch and romantic inspiration.

Stems Incorporated
Stems specializes in Chicago weddings and corporate events, so the professional design team leaves nothing to be desired. This florist is known as going for drama and unique arrangements. I don't think I have ever been to an event or wedding where Stems has missed the mark, every single time I am speechless by the excellent work.

The staff at Stems Incorporated really does know flowers, and it shows. You really can come in, tell them the theme of the wedding and the flowers you would like to use and let them run with it. Stems will take you through start to finish and give you several creative options to choose from.

There is one drawback to the number of events and popularity of Stems in Chicago though. You do need to select your wedding flowers and plan the arrangements well in advance. Because of the number of high profile events, Stems is not as flexible with changes as the day nears, though everything possible is done to make your flowers the way you want them.

Choose Stems Incorporated for their professionalism and limitless creativity.
