Hi my name is Nicole, family and friends call me Nikki or Kiki. I currently reside in the beautiful up and coming city of Hazel Park. In which I have come to the conclusion of one day opening up my storefront. My everyday consists of raising my 3 smart, loving, charismatic daughter's aging from 2 years old to 9 years old! They have inspired me to follow my dreams of owning Bottoms Up Blooms!! As they grew each and every year, watching mommy designing and doing what she loves, it became clear to me that I needed to step up and prove my worthiness and desire to make the best life for my family!

We absolutely loved working with Bottoms Up Blooms! Nicole made the entire process so easy and enjoyable from start to finish. Our bouquets, the arch, and every floral detail were ...
absolutely stunning—better than we could have imagined. It always felt like there was an open line of communication, which made everything stress-free and seamless. Nicole truly listened to our vision, worked with our budget, and brought it to life in the most beautiful way. After assembling our gorgeous arch and boxes, she even surprised us by creating two extra arrangements with the leftover flowers, which was such a thoughtful touch. She was so kind, flexible, and professional—we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and are so grateful we chose Bottoms Up Blooms!

Nikki just did our florals for our January 2026 wedding and we could not be happier! From start to finish, she was on top of everything. The consultation felt like I was talking to...
an old friend! She helped me piece together my vision and offered her opinion when needed. When wedding day came she arrived promptly on time and ready to get to work on setup! The bridal party bouquets and specifically my bouquet were so amazing! My husband and I sat down after our entrance and looked at our Captains Table and our jaws were on the floor for about 5 minutes! It was so elegant, we were completely blown away. She did everything from providing our ceremony arch and sprays, aisle decor, boutonnières, bouquets and even cake decorations! I will be recommending Nikki to everyone I know!!

cation was stellar from the very beginning, and she made sure I was able to stay within my floral budget. She reached out many times before my wedding to confirm that everything was correct or if changes needed to be made. She also answer any and all questions I had leading up to the wedding day. The wedding of my dreams was perfect thanks to Bottoms Up Blooms. I will highly recommend using them for any floral arrangements needed.

I loved how you blended the artificial florals I purchased with the real ones — the combination was seamless and looked so natural. You truly made my vision come to life in the most elegant, romantic way.
I also hope that our team was helpful on the day of the wedding. I heard everything came together smoothly, and we are so grateful that you were able to work with everyone so effortlessly.
Thank you again for all the time, artistry, and care you put into our day. The florals were beyond what I imagined, and I will never forget how beautiful everything looked.
With all my love and gratitude,

Nicole does amazing work! From the start of our communication, she was upfront, clear, excited, and really responsive to what I was looking for in my flower design for my wedding! ...
She made the bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages for my wedding. She took the time to understand my vision by looking at my inspiration photos, talking to me on the phone, and meeting with me in person to make sure she was able to design something that fit my design and budget. She truly has a passion for her work and it shows! I even requested a last minute change the night before the wedding, and she went above and beyond to update the flowers to match my preference, for which I was so grateful! I would highly recommend Nicole to any bride or anyone looking for high quality and beautiful floral arrangements!
