Wendy and Lexee were amazing for our wedding day. Definitely recommend them for all of your wedding needs. We don’t know what we would have done if we didn’t have Lexee as our wedding coordinator. She did so much more than we could have ever asked for. The flowers were beautiful and Wendy did a great job of finding our vision!

We used Apple Creek for our wedding florals and it was so easy from start to finish. Their communication was amazing, they made the process easy, and our flowers were BEAUTIFUL. I cannot get over the quality of our florals, the combination of flowers and colors matched the wedding colors perfectly. I couldn’t get over how beautiful everything was. I would highly recommend them!

Wendy is the absolute best and created the most beautiful arrangements for our wedding day! Her and Tammy turned our venue (Pinstripes in South Barrington) into the most beautiful ceremony and reception space. Everything was perfect, they were so incredibly helpful and they worked their asses off! Lexee our coordinator went above and beyond to make sure no detail was missed and her quick responses were so well appreciated. The Apple Creek Team is phenomenal!

Everyone at Apple Creek is amazing! Lynn and Wendy were incredible to work with. They made some simple pictures of flowers that I had and made a stunningly beautiful bouquet. I was honestly blown away by all my wedding flowers, and I could not have asked for anything more beautiful.
I was extremely fortunate to have Lexee as my day of coordinator, and I am so grateful for everything she did. She knew where everything was and had everything planned out perfectly. My wedding party knew exactly where to be when and no one was wondering what was next. She was so calm and organized and kept me calm and organized throughout the whole day. At the end of the night, she had everything ready to go for us and in my father-in-law's car that no one was waiting around to pack anything up. She did a phenomenal job and made the whole day go off without a hitch. She and the team at Apple Creek made sure everything was setup and ready to go to ensure we had a sunset ceremony. All of our guests were gushing about how beautiful the sunset was and how gorgeous the ceremony was. Lexee made our day so special and enjoyable, and I cannot thank her enough for all of her work.
I cannot recommend Apple Creek Weddings enough. Their whole team is unbelievably helpful, talented, and professional. They made our day incredibly special, beautiful, and perfect. They got everything together as fast as possible to make sure our ceremony could start early, and it was absolutely perfect. They all around did an incredible job!

Wendy, Lynn and Lexee made it so easy from the beginning! My fiance and I met with Wendy and Lynn first to discuss our wedding floral vision. They walked us thru look-books, went over literally every single option available for us (and let me tell you, there's A LOT) and then during our meeting with them, they pulled flowers together to give us ideas of what our arrangements could look like for our special day.
It's hard to not like flowers, but even harder to pick favorites! We gave the gals our vision, our colors and then let them have creative freedom to create a masterpiece. And boy oh boy did they deliver! Because I like everything, I told them to have fun with it and I don't think it could have turned out any better. From the centerpiece on the arch at the ceremony, to the pocket squares for the guys, to my bridal bouquet, everything was STUNNING. It was hard for me to part with my bouquet after the wedding (don't worry, I ordered some resin art to preserve it! I HIGHLY recommend this so you can look back on it and smile and think of your special day). Since we got married last week, I don't have photos of the resin art we ordered, but the samples they showed us *chef's kiss*.
It's truly an art form and the florals smelled so good too! All of my guests kept telling us how beautiful the colors and floral choices were. And They were so unique too. Nothing against a flower type you can get in a store, but man, the types of flowers they used were just out of this world. Even my now husband was saying how he loved all the colors and it was just the cherry on top. If you're looking for a florist that brings your dreams to life, then Apple Creek is for you!!

I had an outstanding experience with our wedding florist. From start to finish, they were amazing. Not only did they create stunning floral arrangements, but they also went above and beyond by delivering everything directly to our venue. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day special made everything incredibly simple and easy. I couldn't be happier with their service and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless and beautiful floral experience for their event.

From the very beginning Wendy and Lynn were attentive, kind, thoughtful, professional and amazing women to work with. They saw my vision and brought it to life better than I could have ever imagined. They went above and beyond every step of the way. I never ever had to chase them down, they were always one step ahead of me and they ALWAYS knew exactly what I needed. I cannot recommend them enough! I loved every second I worked with them and with Lexee, their extraordinary wedding planner! Truly an amazing company!!!

These were hands down the most beautiful flowers I have seen and my bridesmaids agreed! Apple Creek did a wonderful job with someone like myself who is not familiar with flowers at all. They took the colors and theme of my wedding and created bouquets and other arrangements beautifully. The flowers smelled so good and looked amazing in the photos! Very approachable, fair pricing, and professional floral business.

Everything was so beautiful. The staff at Apple Creek have always been warm and welcoming as well as willing to help. I would recommend Apple Creek for all floral needs to anyone based off of the experience I had with them.
Additionally, Lexee was a life savior for all wedding coordinating needs! She knows everything wedding and helped us navigate everything so easily. Could not recommend her enough!

Apple Creek Weddings did an amazing job on our florals for our special day. When my husband and I went in for our consultation they really took the time to understand and paint a picture of what we were looking for. You could really tell the day of that they listened and made our vision come to life! They were also very accommodating with last minute changes. My favorite part of our florals were the extra pops of bling they added to my bouquet and to my spouse's along to the centerpieces. Seeing the extra sparkle really added to the final touch! Thank you for an amazing day and one we will never forget!

Apple creek weddings did an absolutely incredible job. All of the flowers were gorgeous and they did an amazing job bringing my vision to life. I got so many compliments on the arch they created for the backdrop of my ceremony. They were so easy to work with from the initial planning meeting.

We LOVED working with apple creek & they did an amazingg job with our flowers. Not only did they do all the floral & centerpieces for our wedding but they also have a wedding planner/day of coordinator, Lexee, & WOW!! I could not imagine planning & executing the best day of our lives without her. She was truly so helpful, very thorough & a joy to work with. I felt like I always had a friend and professional in my court and help make our 250 guest wedding run very smoothly. Lynn & Wendy at Apple creek were absolutely wonderful to work with as well and have such a special talent and touch with what they do. Our bouquets, florals and centerpieces were so beautiful and they truly made our vision come to life. Thank you Apple creek for helping make our wedding exactly what we dreamed of.

Beautiful flowers! They put together a stunning sample bouquet when I went for a consult with them and the final bouquet ended up being even more beautiful! The flowers were everything I wanted. We also worked with their day-of coordinator, Lexee, who is an absolute delight! She made it so much easier communicating with the florist and organizing everything. She was great with organizing and helping out with everything else concerning the wedding as well. Hiring Lexee was definitely the best decision I made when planning my wedding. If you need a wedding planner or day-of coordinator, get Lexee! My only compliant with the florist would be the communication prior to hiring Lexee. I found it difficult to get clear answers in a timely manner and didn’t know what to expect timeline-wise when working with a florist since I’d never done that before. I wish they had been more transparent from the beginning. But besides that, I was very happy and would recommend this florist. The flowers were really incredible.

Wendy and Lynn were very professional, very thorough, and so easy to work with! I felt like they did the most thorough consultation out of any of the florists I talked to, on top of that, they actually understood my vision and delivered tenfold. They even sent pics of the bouquets a few days before to make sure it was exactly what I envisioned and they were open to any changes I wanted. I would 100000% recommend them!

Lynn and Wendy were a pleasure to work with! They took all of my ideas in and created the perfect florals for our wedding day. The week of our wedding they sent over images of sample bouquets, after I told them what I liked and didn't like they made adjustments and created the most beautiful arrangements! They were right across the street from our venue so the setup and takedown was super easy. I highly recommend using them for your wedding florals!

Apple Creek completely knocked it out of the park with our wedding flowers! From the first consultation appointment to receiving the flowers on our big day, they made the entire process so easy from beginning to end. Lynn and Wendy were so welcoming (along with their adorable shop dogs!) at the first consultation appointment and were able to take one simple inspiration picture I had found and bring it to life in the most impressive way possible. Their prices seemed reasonable, though I honestly didn't even think twice or consult with another florist for comparison purposes. Their wedding coordinator, Lexee, made things so easy by following up about 1 month before the wedding to confirm the flowers being ordered and how much of each. She sent pictures of the bride and bridesmaid bouquets a few days before the wedding to make sure they fit the vision I had (no changes necessary, the arrangements were STUNNING!). I paid extra for the day of drop off at the venue which was a massive help in lowering the to-do list stress on the wedding day. Overall, I highly recommend them for weddings or any other events that require the ease and expertise of an experienced florist. I can't extend my appreciation enough!

Wendy, Lynn and Lexee were truly a delight to work with for our wedding day! I truly didn't have to worry about anything because they are such a solid, organized and efficient team! The first time I met with them, they put together a mock up so I could see what my bouquet would look like and Lexee sent pictures a few days before to show me how everything was coming together. They also provided me with a lot of great and unique options to preserve my flowers. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and they were by far the most reasonably priced out of anyone I met with. I highly recommend Apple Creek for your Wedding Day!

I highly recommend Apple Creek. I went to several florists before finding the right fit for me. When I arrived at Apple Creek for my initial consultation, I had a warm, welcoming feeling. Lynn started the process, and I could tell she was very organized and responsible. Then Wendy, the lead florist, met with me to design exactly what I envisioned for my wedding day. She patiently talked through each arrangement with me to make sure she would design it as I visualized. At one point, she even brought me to the flower section to show me certain flowers that we could use in the arrangements. I really appreciated the detailed care!
Then as my wedding week approached, Lexee (who is so sweet, calm, and kind) texted and called me as they were creating each arrangement to make sure it would be perfect. When the actual day came, every floral arrangement was beautiful!
Apple Creek is professional, responsible, and kind. Thank you for your gorgeous flowers!

Lynn, Wendy and Lexee were absolutely amazing and if you are debating going with Apple Creek, do it - you will not be disappointed!! My fiance and I went into our consultation knowing nothing about flowers and having a smaller budget but they made our dream flowers happen within budget! They were extremely detail oriented and sent pictures of the bouquets the week before our wedding asking for any changes. We knew exactly what we were getting going into wedding day and could not have been more pleased with all of the arrangements. Come wedding day, they were able to bring our simple vision to life and incorporate all of the right flowers/colors to match our style for table flowers, cake flowers, bouquets etc. This team is extremely professional, thorough, attentive, and wonderful!

The flowers provided by Apple Creek were amazing. We ordered the bride’s bouquet, 2 bridal party bouquets, 2 wrist corsages, and 3 boutonnieres for the guys. Everything turned out more beautiful than I expected. I went to the store with photos I had saved off Pinterest and Instagram. They listened and got the vibe I was going for immediately. You are putting a lot of blind faith in your florist, lol, but Apple Creek did not disappoint! A few days before my wedding, I got photos of all the bouquets, and I teared up at how lovely they looked. If I had any constructive criticism, it would be: the guys’ boutonnieres were designed to go on heavy material (like a jacket) but we had an outdoor summer wedding, and our guys were in dress shirts only, so the boutonnieres flopped over. Thankfully, we brought a sewing kit with a lot of pins to further attach them. And my bouquet, while it was stunning, was huge and quite heavy. I wish I had been warned of that when we were designing it. It was tricky to hold, and hold low enough in my photos. I feel like it could have used a handle or something. In the end, we put it in a vase after the ceremony and it all worked out beautifully.

We used Apple creek for our wedding flowers and our day of coordinator services and they blew us away. From day one I knew we wanted to use Apple Creek for our florals and from our first meeting they took out vision and brought it to life. I can’t appreciate all Wendy did for our wedding florals! Everyone was so impressed with how the venue looked. We also used Lexee as our day of coordinator and that was easily the best money we spent for the day. From setup to tear down Lexee was there to help. She asked all the right questions and was a huge help to us. Lexee is so easy to work with and does such a great job making sure the day runs smoothly. Thank you Apple Creek Staff for making our wedding day beautiful!!!

My review is 2-fold so bear with me
I booked with Apple Creek Flowers 8-9 months before my big day, which was 7/30/2022. After my initial consultation I had a great feeling about the ladies in the shop and the work they do, and put down money to reserve my date right then. There was definitely a delay in receiving my initial quote (as some others have stated in their reviews) and the price was more than I had anticipated. But after I expressed concern with the price, the girls worked with me and set up a 2nd consultation to get the price point down to where I was more comfortable. The week of my wedding, I received photos of my bridesmaid bouquets and was allowed to make a few tweaks to the color scheme (I was going for a bolder color palate) and remove some of the more pastel flowers, and replace them with brighter colors. They accommodated with no issues, and when it was time to see my bridal bouquet, I was IN LOVE. It was exactly what I had hoped for – big and bold, and beautiful – so much so I needed breaks holding the bouquet throughout the day because my hands were tired. The flowers were gorgeous – the girls at Apple Creek definitely know what they’re doing!
During my consultations, I met Lexee and came to find out that she does wedding coordination/planning. I hadn’t seen her name referenced in the reviews I read so I didn’t know that they offered this type of service, but I was in the market for a day-of event coordinator for my wedding day. After my second consultation with Apple Creek, I expressed interest in booking Lexee for her coordination services as she felt like a good fit, and her pricing was very reasonable. Let me tell you – Lexee was the BEST decision I made for my big day. Leading up to the day, we got together for one main meeting, and emailed/texted a number of times, answering questions and asking for her opinion on many things, and she put together an extensive timeline for the weekend – including everyone’s contact information from the groomsmen and bridesmaids, to the church organist, down to my bartender friends. She was there at the church rehearsal Friday night meeting everyone and helping to put up decorations. Then the day of, she was there promptly at 10am with the flowers and an assistant. She came in and let me rattle off “to-do’s” and took it from there. She helped us during the “almost” crisis of our shuttle not showing up, and when one of the kiddos didn’t get their kids meal, and was always right there when I needed her throughout the day and into the night. She even picked up our late-night food from the local McDonalds (which she also facilitated the order and figured out payment). She was invaluable and I do not know what I would have done without her there. She stepped in and took care of things so I could enjoy my day, and I can’t thank her enough for that. If you need a wedding planner or a day-of coordinator – book Lexee, you won’t regret it!

We were THRILLED with the flowers Apple Creek Flowers from Woodstock created for our wedding! Wendy helped bring our ideas to life, even when we did not know exactly what we were looking for. Her designs for the bouquets were spectacular! The boutonnieres, flower ball for the flower girl, ceremony flowers, raised table arrangements, everything was just amazing! Lynn was great to work with on the business side. Everything was delivered on time, very professional. We would recommend Apple Creek to anyone, the flowers they created for our wedding were absolutely beautiful.

The ladies here helped me visualize exactly what I wanted for my wedding day and showed me examples and even texted me sneak peeks during the week of my wedding. The flowers were everything I could have asked for and will look amazing in pictures. I cannot say enough about how lovely these ladies were to work with :)

Apple Creek Weddings provided the flowers (bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony accents etc.) For my wedding. I was blown away in his they interpreted the little I was able to describe what I wanted and turn it into exactly what I wanted! The flowers were perfect and are still being talked about!

Originally, we were thinking about doing artificial arrangements for our floral decor, but after sitting down and talking with Apple Creek, we knew that we wanted to use them for our floral for our wedding. We let them know what colors we wanted and some ideas of our vision and what we wanted and they delivered beyond our expectations! The arrangements they put together into our centerpieces, all the bouquets, and every other item they made for us was absolutely stunning!

I had a very similar experience to the couple from Dec of this past year. My first meeting went great. Was told they could give me my vision within my budget, no problem. I paid the deposit. It took 4 months for me to even get a quote when I was told it would take just a few weeks. The meeting was in September 2021, I finally called the shop in January 2022 to ask about my quote and if they had forgotten. They were rude on the phone and seemed annoyed I was even calling and asking about the quote since they have been so busy. I was brushed off and told I would get my quote “soon”. It took 3 more weeks and when I did get my quote, it was way over budget. I responded via email if there was anything they could do to help bring the price closer to what we had discussed back in September and what I was told was a good budget. I did not get a response back and had to call the shop again to ask if they had even gotten my email. Again, they rushed me off the phone and were not helpful - said they’d respond as soon as possible but were so busy. 2 weeks later I finally got a revised quote that was barely any less than the first quote and was told that there was not much else they could do about the price without losing my vision. Which was extremely confusing since at my first meeting with them, I was told my budget wouldn’t be an issue. Overall not a good experience. I found a different vendor that I received a quote from in 1 week, is on budget and extremely helpful when I call with questions.

Starting out, my fiancé and I were very excited to work with Apple Creek. We had a great wedding flower consultation and a good feeling afterwards. We signed a date reservation contract because we didn't feel like we need to look anywhere else. They said that if we didn't hear back from them in two weeks with a quote, we should call them back to check in. After those two weeks they said it was their busy wedding season and told us to wait another month for the quote. Two months pass and we tried to directly talk to the owners but we were only allowed to talk to the store manager who told us that we should have our wedding quote "soon" and we were at the top of the list. We waited another month and tried to call them and we spoke to their wedding coordinator who said that we should have our quote "after the holidays" and there were only a few people ahead of us. Since we were unable to receive a straight answer from them, we decided to have our wedding coordinator talk to them and see if she could get a better answer. After a productive talk, we were told we would have our quote around January 1st and there were five people ahead of us and we should send them photos for inspiration. One week later we got a phone call saying that "this was no longer a good match" and that we would be getting back our wedding date deposit. We were shocked by this because we thought we were heading in a good direction with them. We called them back to see what went wrong and why they did not want to work with us anymore. Once again they said we were no longer a good fit and gave no further explanation. Overall, we felt like there was a lack of transparency and communication on their part. We also felt like our time was disrespected after three months of waiting with no official quote. We were grateful for getting our deposit back but the whole experience left us feel mistreated.

I knew walking into Apple Creek Flowers that they would be perfect for the job. Their cute boutique upfront is warm and welcoming and their thorough consultation sealed the deal. Working with Lexee was such a pleasure! She coordinated our entire wedding and executed every vision I had perfectly. We were married in Long Grove but had our pictures taken downtown. Lexee made sure our bouquet's were delivered to our hotel on time so we were able to use them throughout the day for photos. They set up the entire venue while we were out adventuring the city. They even stayed to bring the arch we rented for the ceremony inside so we could use it behind our bridal table. Thank you guys for making our big day that much easier. We are looking forward to working with you again down the road!

From the moment we walked in the door to meet with Lynn and Wendy I knew I wanted them to do our wedding flowers! Everyone was super friendly and answered every question we had. The quote came quickly and I decided to change some things here and there and they were quick to adjust that as well. I received pictures the week of to make sure I was happy with everything, which I was! And then the day of everything was delivered on time and LOOKED amazing in my venue! Cannot thank you guys enough ❤️

Apple Creek did a fantastic job on the flowers for our wedding. I was overwhelmed with the process, but the staff made the process understandable and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend Apple Creek for anyone looking for floral arrangements for their next occasion.

We were so incredibly happy with all of our flowers from Apple Creek! I know absolutely nothing about flowers but was able to share the idea I was looking for as well as my budget, and Lynn and Wendy made it happen. I received pictures texted to me the week of the wedding so I could adjust anything as needed and I was astonished. Everything from our centerpieces, to our bouquets and boutonnières, everything was just breathtakingly beautiful!! I would highly recommend them in a heart beat!

We were so pleased with the job Apple Creek flowers did for my daughter’s wedding. The flowers were beautiful. Wendy & Lynn were so easy to work with throughout the entire process. We even added to our contract close to the wedding. They were able to get what we wanted and they were so flexible with us adding things along the way. Everything was nicely labeled when all the flowers were brought to the church. It made everything easier. We highly recommend Apple Creek Flowers/Weddings.

Apple Creek did an AMAZING job for our wedding. I had a very general idea of the type of flowers that I wanted at the wedding. Apple Creek took a very general description and created arrangements that were exactly what I wanted for our wedding. I highly recommend.

Wendy and Lynn of Apple Creek Flowers were phenomenal to work with! My husband and I met with several florists in the Chicagoland area and ultimately chose Apple Creek Flowers because I trusted that Wendy and Lynn saw the same vision I had for the bouquets and boutonnieres. A couple days before the wedding Wendy sent me a quick sneak peek of the bouquets and I was literally speechless! They were even more beautiful than I could have imagined. When we saw the bouquets in person the morning of the wedding they were 100% perfect. I wouldn't have changed a single thing and they were EXACTLY the vision I had in my mind.
The wedding flowers are such an important part of the overall wedding and it's hard to trust that someone is going to "paint the picture" how you see it in your head. Wendy and Lynn made this piece of wedding planning a walk in the park and it was easy to trust that my flowers were in good hands. I would recommend them again and again!

Wow. Just Wow! I was totally clueless walking in to finding a florist. I had seen a post from someone on Facebook about Apple Creek and decided to book an appointment… My first meeting with Lynn and Wendy was an hour and a half and I was sold before I walked out the door! I was pretty clueless in what I “wanted” just a couple of flowers I liked, a couple I hate, and colors. At the end of our meeting, they knew exactly what I wanted (I still didn’t haha!) and I was ready to go! We got engaged in October 2019, and set our date for August 2020! Wendy and Lynn were so awesome and so accommodating to the 101 changes we had to make, we almost cancelled so many times, but ultimately “went through as planned” and we regret nothing! Everything was SO beautiful and I loved every stem! My husband has since purchased flowers for me here and I will never use another florist! Such a wonderful experience!

Apple Creek absolutely catered to our needs for our Covid wedding and I could not be more grateful. Wendy does incredible work. She brought my vision for a not-too-fall but not-too-winter floral arrangement to life and I received so many compliments on my bridal bouquet. Lynn and Wendy were able to accommodate the many changes that needed to be made to our order and were so flexible, even a week leading up to the wedding. My favorite part was that Wendy texted me pictures of some of the arrangements while she was putting them together so that I could “approve” of the design. I trusted her with it all! We are so thankful to have found Apple Creek and would recommend them to any couple looking for a wonderful small-town shop with big ideas!

Hiring Apple Creek Flowers for our wedding was the best decision! First, their shop is super inviting, "home-y", and the staff is beyond helpful and nice. Communication was super easy, especially when changing guest numbers and what not due to COVID19. I gave Wendy ideas of what I was envisioning, and she brought it to life. It's hard with flowers, because you can't really see what they are going to look like until they are ready. As they were becoming ready, Wendy texted me pictures and I was amazed. This communication also gives you the chance to give any feedback. With mine, nothing needed to be changed -it was perfect! Seeing all of our flowers in the days prior to the wedding was what made me start to become really excited for the big day. The flowers were one of my favorite parts of the wedding - absolutely beautiful. I couldn't be happier - I highly recommend working with Apple Creek Flowers!

Lynn and Wendy were absolutely incredible! When covid disrupted my original florist they stepped right in and did everything they could to make it right again. They create beautiful bouquets and understand exactly what you are looking for! I love that they even send you photos to make sure it is exactly what you wanted. I cannot say enough about them. I will be recommending them to lots of friends and family! Thanks for everything Lynn and Wendy! You truly did an amazing job!

Working with Lynn and Wendy was amazing. They had great communication and the bouquets and boutonnieres were beautiful. My husband and I got married on September 25th 2020 and we ended up having to greatly downsize our wedding. Lynn was very quick to help us revise our order and quote, she never missed a beat. I'm sure they were overwhelmed with all of the Covid-19 changes going on but they never let anything slip through the cracks. Wendy sent me some pictures of the bouquets and boutonnieres before final adjustments were done and I was so happy with everything I was almost in tears. This year was extremely stressful for us, and I'm sure everyone else trying to plan a wedding, but Lynn and Wendy never made us feel like we were less important than any other couple. I HIGHLY recommend hiring them!
