Finding Eminence Farm

Audra made the most beautiful bouquets for me and my bridesmaid for my September wedding. Before the wedding I was very scatterbrained and told Audra I knew what I wanted but not really (I know super helpful). I knew that I wanted dahlias and Audra really helped me create a vision and walked me through all the flowers and colors that would tie everything together. She was very responsive throughout the planning process. On my wedding day, I was truly delighted to see the flowers because they were better than my imagination. I also love the fact that the flowers came from her farm. If you follow the instagram page, you can even see the flowers being grown and all the hard work Audra puts in which made the flowers even more special.

Finding Eminence Farm is the best vendor to work with for your wedding flowers! Audra is so friendly and kind, honest in her estimates, stays true to your budget, and delivers the most beautiful flowers!! She checks in with you as you approach your wedding day to ensure everything is as you requested, reviewing your flower needs, and talking through the best way to keep your flowers fresh for the wedding day! Everyone loved our flowers, they look amazing in photos, and of course smelled amazing too!! Audra is super fun and my stepdaughter and I had such a fun time going to pick up our flowers and see the farm! You can't go wrong choosing Finding Eminence Farm - Audra is the best at what she does!!

Audra and her family run a beautiful flower farm (and more) in Central IL. She was so fun to work with and creates the most beautiful and unique bouquets and centerpiece that go well beyond the traditional. We enjoyed a visit to their farm prior to the wedding to look at her flowers during this crazy growing season weather and included the flowers we admired the most! So fun! She delivered our flowers to the church and reception venue precisely on time and everything was perfect. We received so many compliments! For lasting entertainment and eye candy, follow her on Instagram and Facebook :-)

I had an amazing experience with Audra and Finding Eminence Farm. First, entire process was seamless, easy and stress-free. The payment and contract online was great and incredibly organized. Second off, the flowers themselves were amazing! About a month out from the wedding we created a mock-bouquet for me which helped both of us understand what I was looking for. When I picked up the flowers (flower petals, boutineers, bouquets, centerpieces, and flower crown) I was shocked. It was exactly what I was looking for - and more. She had listened to what I wanted from our previous meeting and used her expertise to give it the perfect amount of texture, color, and beauty. I can't recommend them enough and am so grateful I went with Finding Eminence.

Let me put it this way: book Finding Eminence. Do it. Right now. Before I was even engaged (scratch that...before I even knew my husband), I knew that I needed Finding Eminence to be my flower vendor. Every time I saw Audra's work, I loved it. I knew that Finding Eminence creates beautiful arrangements, but Audra still far exceeded my expectations. I am not the best at describing what I want, but Audra somehow completely understood my ideas. Then, she made them even better. She was able to identify the look I was going for, and then suggest even more ideas. Everything was spot on. She is knowledgeable, she is kind, she is hilarious. Pretty much, Audra is all of the things that any bride needs while planning a wedding. While we went more neutral with our colors, Finding Eminence can create so many different styles. She will listen and do everything she can to make sure you are happy with your flowers. I can't tell you how many people reached out to share how much they loved my bouquet or table arrangements. So, yes, absolutely, choose Finding Eminence.

Audra is an absolute artist! She created the most beautiful floral arrangements for our front porch wedding ceremony. She has an amazing eye for design, she is super easy to work with, and she has a phenomenal sense of humor that made the whole "wedding planning" thing so much more enjoyable.

Audra made all the bouquets and boutonnieres for my wedding in June. She did a wonderful job and everything came out beautifully. Throughout the whole process, she was very pleasant to work with and helped me envision the look I was going for, even though I didn't know anything about flowers!

Working with Audra at Finding Eminence was wonderful. The service was awesome and the flowers were beautiful. I would highly recommend using Finding Eminence for your next event.

It is so hard for me to put into words how amazing Audra and Finding Eminence farm was to work with. One of my top priorities for my wedding day was to have amazing flowers. I found Audra early on in the planning process, and after our first phone call, I knew I had found our florist. She was incredible to work with, totally got my vision, and I felt like she was an old friend every time we talked. Professional, personable, and did I mention she created AMAZING arrangements for my wedding?! When I saw my bouquet and the arrangements at the reception, I could not believe how beautiful everything was. Audra truly exceeded my expectations. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

I was so pleased with Audra with my daughters wedding we used her again for my son’s wedding. Both were in Chicago. She is very easy to work with, has great ideas and exceeded our expectations once again. I would highly recommend her for any budget. No need to even look anywhere else. Absolutely gorgeous flowers.

From our first meeting with Audra, through the entire process, straight up to the finished product, we always felt like we were in extremely capable hands. I felt like Audra and I just connected on a certain level and she was extremely competent at picking up on the vibe of what I was looking for in our flowers for our big day! Her prices were very reasonable for today’s market and I even came under budget. Too many brides nowadays don’t realize how much work and pressure can go into creating the PERFECT flowers for your day and in a short enough span of time that nothing wilts by the time it gets to you. And I was absolutely, completely over the moon with my bouquet. When I first saw it, I felt so utterly glad that I trusted my instincts in hiring Finding Eminence Farms. I would highly recommend them (and will!!) to any bride, but especially one who has ideas in her head and really wants to be “heard and understood.” They’ll take fantastic care of you!!

I absolutely loved working with Audra from Finding Eminence, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect wedding flowers!! She was so wonderful to work with through all of my emails, phone calls, and texts and made my wedding flowers everything I envisioned and more on the budget I gave her to work with! They were so, so beautiful and I got so many compliments. Audra made it a point to find out exactly the look I was going for, even as far as to have me share my pinterest boards with her so she could create my vision! She also made me a flower headpiece to wear for my reception and it was perfect and such a fun way to switch up my look for the reception.

This took me WAY longer than it should have and I am embarrassed, because Audra's superior work and customer service deserves to be rated immediately! Seriously, I could not have asked for a better florist. She was prompt and attentive from day one, offering advice when I was struggling with design decisions and suggestions when she knew something might look different on my fall wedding day than I envisioned it in my head. She knows her craft, and she provided BEAUTIFUL designs on our big day that had my whole family talking about them. The flowers even lasted a couple weeks after the event! Audra was also amazing at providing structure to my somewhat loose planning, making sure she asked every question necessary and helping me map out everything. I cannot recommend Audra highly enough, you will not be disappointed with her calm, professional demeanor and exceptional service.

Audra was the perfect person to go to for my outdoor wedding flowers. She listened to our wants and needs and was incredibly open minded. The price is reasonable for amazing quality. The best part was visiting the farm to see my flowers growing! My husband and I also loved how she talked things through with us and explained different types of flowers, details, and arrangements upon our first meeting. I would recommend Finding Eminence to anyone!

I can't say enough amazing things about Finding Eminence Farm. I met with Audra and shared with her my vision to transform an old and crumbling church into a light and colorful explosion of flowers. She took my vision and worked tirelessly to make it happen way beyond my expectations. Audra has such a creative and passionate eye and can take your dreams and make them realities. Still gushing over the sight of my little abandoned church covered in flowers on my wedding day. Here are some pictures of the amazing installation she created for my Wedding Day. https://findingeminence.com/2017/07/03/the-abandoned-church-on-the-prairie/

I cannot say enough how perfect Audra was for our day. She understood our vision right away and came to our wedding with even better arrangements than we could have ever dreamed of. Audra and her husband are extremely warm and kind people. We knew right away that Finding Eminence Farms was the right choice for us. We would use them again in a second without question.

Audra from Finding Eminence was so wonderful to work with. What more could you want than local flowers?! Audra was cognizant of my budget and put together a plethora of options to work within it. Audra knew how important sunflowers were to me, but they were out of season and she told me it was unlikely I would get to have them in my arrangements. However, she surprised me with them in every arrangement on the day of my wedding! I knew Audra would be amazing after seeing her flowers on social media, but she did so much more. It was so nice to be able to give her my vision and trust that she would deliver it! Flowers were such an important part of my wedding day, and Finiding Eminence helped with that!
