Lakeside Floral

our wedding and a basic idea of colors. She was wonderful at explaining the different options and made me feel so comfortable during the whole process. She was honest about pricing and was honest when she didn't think my ideas for centerpieces would work (and I'm so so glad we listened to her). Through the whole process she answered my questions and was so helpful -- it was a total breeze.

ly highly recommend her to anyone who is planning a wedding! And her prices are incredible!

I couldn't make it up to the shop, and staying at the venue to help my wedding day coordinator pull off the perfect photo-booth backdrop. I'm far from an expert on flowers and had only a rough idea of what I was even looking for when we first connected. But Elishia took my vague description and pulled off some truly amazing arrangements that absolutely nailed the vibe I was going for. In fact, I had no intention of saving my bouquet before the wedding. But after seeing the final product, I couldn't stand to just throw it away! I couldn't be happier with the amazing work they did!!!

hat, she was SO affordable! If you are looking florist, stop searching and book Lakeside Floral!

valued the moment we walked in the door. Highly recommended!

floral arrangements! It made our wedding day even better.

he completely took my idea and turned it into a reality. The centerpieces turned out more beautiful than I could have imagine. Not to mention the beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres she created for our special day. She was one of my favorite vendors to work with and helped make the process fun! I highly recommend Elishia!!

Lakeside!

d open about what would work and what wouldn't work, what was worth it and what wasn't worth it, which goes a long way when building a customer relationship. Everything came together so beautifully, and my flowers on my wedding day were exactly how I wanted them. Thank you again :) Definitely consider Lakeside Floral for your day!

so was very respectful of my budget- she really seemed to understand my vision and gave me alternate ideas without pushing me to change what I wanted or spend more. I would definitely recommend Lakeside Floral!

nd we couldn't have more delighted with her creative work!

beautiful and fresh. There was a last minute change in the delivery details and she responded to the email immediately and the change was taken care of.

and got tons of compliments on them!

re out what to do for my DIY centerpieces! She is so friendly, fun to work with, and very responsive to all questions/concerns I had throughout the whole planning process. I would say she is very affordable and will figure out ways to help you save money as well. I would recommend her 100%!

me the florals of my dreams! Elishia was also extremely responsive, detail oriented, and thoughtful in everything she did for us. She created the most incredible installation for our Chuppah, as well as 20 centerpieces and 7 bouquets---all of which were incredible! I can't count how many compliments we received on the floral decor for our wedding! Thank you to Elishia and Lakeside Floral for all their hard work, attention to detail, and overall being awesome to work with!

s and the most beautiful bouquets of flowers for myself and bridal party! Elishia also did a great job staying within my budget, easy to talk to, timely and organized. Thank you so much for being apart of our wedding day! organized

nd she helped create the perfect one! Elishia went above and beyond our expectations ultimately creating a magical floral display, and all while staying within our budget. Every arrangement was meticulously crafted with thought, care, and gorgeous colors. My favorite was the bridal bouquet, absolutely stunning! All of our floral arrangements were delivered on time and our venue was set up beautifully thanks to Elishia and her courteous and friendly team. We also received numerous compliments from our guests and couldn't be happier with our overall experience with Lakeside Floral!

Her "outside the vase" creativity is what sets her apart from your everyday florist. From the initial consultation with her to the finished product, we were confident all along the planning process that the flowers would be beautifully stunning, arranged perfectly at the venue and competitively priced. Elishia has a delightful personality, is energetic and LOVES weddings and it shows. You won't go wrong with choosing Lakeside Floral.

n arrangements – we received so many comments on how beautiful our flowers looked and I can’t stop staring at how amazing the flowers looked in photographs. I’m so thankful I met Elishia at wedding fair at JX Event Venue where we had our wedding reception and can’t wait to keep using her for personal flowers. I would highly recommend Lakeside floral to anyone looking to work with a kind, fun, creative and budget friendly florist!

Elishia was there to make sure everything was perfect! Elishia is so easy to work with and truly listens to what you want and always seems to capture the bride's vision perfectly! I would HIGHLY recommend working with Lakeside Floral for any event, but especially any and all weddings! I will definitely be working with her again in the future! :)

at matched the colors of our wedding. She has the cutest shop in White Bear Lake. Definitely recommend working with her!

understanding of the numerous changes we had to make. I appreciated that she was so thoughtful with helping us stay in budget. I loved the final bouquets and we heard rave reviews about my bridal bouquet from guests. Thank you so much!

pier.

ting bouquets to stick within my budget, but with her very reasonable prices I ended up having her take care of all my centerpieces as well. Elishia is just a gem of a person and so fun to work with....she made planning the flowers one of my favorite parts of the process! Thanks, Elishia!

y wedding colors and style and made the most beautiful/perfect creation. We are so thankful for everything she did and all of her help. I highly recommend using Elishia for anything floral!!

very cool ideas for centerpieces that incorporated the color theme beautifully. I was very excited after I left our initial meeting, especially since her quote was very reasonable!! She was very responsive by e-mail and always made it clear she was happy to help answer any questions that I had along the way. I felt really supported and trusted her to pull it off. And she did!! All of the flowers were gorgeous and fit in with our decor so perfectly!! My bouquet was especially beautiful. Lakeside Floral was exceptional at every point of the process and we couldn't be more grateful to them for giving us an extra beautiful wedding day!!!

re absolutely stunning and she managed to capture the simple elegance we were looking for in the centerpieces. She was a pleasure to work, extremely flexible, and we hope to do business with her again soon.

h and responded in a timely fashion. I never felt like I was bothering anyone and were eager to help me with decisions! My flowers have been the topic of many conversations and heavily photographed by our guests! Thank you for being a part of our big day! -Joe & Beth

ow many people commented that the flowers were beautiful (particularly the center pieces). Besides just great flowers I found Elishia to be very professional and personable. I'd give 6 of 5 stars if I could.

nd worked well within our budget. The sample that she put together at our initial meeting gave us a good visual for what to expect and she was spot on the day of the wedding!My personal attendant picked up the flowers the day of the wedding and also had nothing but positive things to say about their interaction. I've gotten so many compliments on how beautiful our flowers were and couldn't be more pleased with the service we received! Definitely highly recommended!

rs, had some ideas from Pinterest but no reality of cost. However, she gave me the same look if not better than Pinterest at a fraction of the cost. I am confident she can help anyone capture their dream wedding, while making wedding planning that much more special.

re GORGEOUS. She had taken what we said and what we wanted and totally ran with it. My bouquet was stunning. Everything was great, timely, and the flowers have lasted a week already and still look good! She is completely reasonable as far as pricing, and so worth it! Could not recommend Elishia enough!

mpliments on the bouquets and flowers throughout our wedding and reception, and the fact that I showed Elishia a Pinterest photo of what I wanted and she was able so exceed my expectations was so wonderful! Would 100% recommend!

y cared. We had a last minute request the night before our wedding and she was on top of it and had our back! Our flowers turned out absolutely beautiful. Way better than I could have ever imagined. She is simply amazing to work with, does fabulous work, as is affordable. So grateful for Elisha and all her help! Lakeside floral is the place to go!

looking elegant and expensive! Cannot recommend Lakeside Floral enough!

is place for future flower orders!

with them, I chose them also for my wedding! I chose Lakeside Floral for their great customer service, price and style. Elishia was so intuitive with understanding me as a bride. I think she would be able to tap into the unique style of any couple's wedding vision.

he showed me examples of bouquets I could do for myself and my bridesmaids and in execution on the big day they were even more beautiful than I thought. Even though my budget was small, Elishia treated me as if I was spending thousands. She is very kind and professional, not to mention easy to work with. If you chose Elishia and Lakeside Floral, you will NOT be disappointed.

nd boutonnieres would look the day of were spot on. I love how she brings out samples of the flowers or greens during our planning sessions so we could envision what everything would look like. Elishia loves getting to know her clients and looks to add personal, meaningful touches to her work. Elishia worked without our budget and was open and flexible to meet with us after our work day. She’s also very responsive to emails! Elishia makes you feel like you are her only client, even when they have multiple events happening in one weekend. Our flowers were not only beautiful but delivered and set up at our venue on time and without issue. Thanks so much!

yed in contact with me to make sure I had everything I needed. I highly recommend her!! Friendly, professional and extremely creative!

or making everything come together so beautifully on our big day!

achieve our overall vision. Elishia took her time to get to know us and to understand what we were looking for. She discussed all options of what flowers were in season and which were not, and was able to advise on alternatives since a few of our flowers were out of season (we could've got them, but they would've been much more expensive). We also mentioned what we wanted to do for our centerpieces and how we weren't looking forward to spending a ton of money on putting them together. She said she had almost everything we needed to complete them and could use them free of charge, as long as we returned within four days after the wedding. This alone saved us nearly $2000. It's hard to envision what your bouquets will look like, especially if you're going off a Pinterest photo and you aren't a florist. She has faux flowers on hand so she can create a similar arrangement for you to actually see in the shop which was so helpful. We exchanged several emails throughout the planning process and she was very responsive. We also added a few last minute "extras" to our bouquets and she was able to accommodate, no problem. The delivery service on the day-of was great, too. Although someone else delivered the arrangements, they were also very courteous and professional, and even helped my mom set up guest tables (which the gentleman totally did not have to do!) The only complaint (if you can even call it that) is that we were imagining the two arrangements on our ceremony arch to be a bit bigger vertically with more greens (and they appeared as just a cluster of flowers). Other than that, the colors and flowers we chose panned out wonderfully in the arrangements and were exactly what we were looking for! We received a ton of compliments on them and they lasted about a week and half afterwards (to which our parents got to enjoy since we were off to Hawaii). If you're looking for a florist who can accommodate your budget without sacrificing what you have in mind, Elishia at Lakeside Floral is your girl! You'll even get to meet the cutest shop dog ever, Bianca!

thank you enough!

e finished product was unbelievable. In addition, she made custom corner pieces for our chuppah, and they turned out better than I could have ever imagined. Plus her prices were fantastic. She does an amazing job, and I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend her.

FUN of them all (plus, talented as all get out!). We had a Gatsby-inspired wedding and Elishia made our vision come to life so beautifully. We didn't have a very large floral budget, but it wasn't a problem - she worked with us on designs to make sure our wedding was everything we'd dreamed. The best part? She crafted these gorgeous feather centerpieces for our tables that completely made the room pop and transported us to another era! Our guests couldn't stop raving about how unique and beautiful they were. Highly recommend!

elped me pick out flowers while also sticking to my budget. What I also loved is she would even give me cost saving tips (e.g. buying things from Michael's) even though she would lose the money! You could tell she was there for me and not trying to just muster up more business. The floral arrangements couldn't have been more beautiful! I got TONS of complements from everyone and I feel like they really helped set of the feeling of the wedding. Only regret is I didn't buy more floral arrangement from her. I couldn't recommend her more! She is absolutely amazing!

stunning floral arrangements. She obviously cared deeply about each bride that she worked with and was committed to creating the perfect look for the day. The arrangements she and her team created for us were absolutely beautiful!! She was quick to respond to emails and questions and she made the extra effort to adapt to our unusual timeline and be there in person to set up my detailed centerpieces! I would recommend Lakeside Floral to anyone looking for beautiful, affordable flowers and an amazing experience!

ll come up with a plan for you and your budget, I decided I had to meet her. I instantly fell in love :) Her knowledge of flowers and greenery was amazing - I was in such good hands. I wasn't overly descriptive on what I wanted because I just wasn't completely sure.. but words can't even describe how perfect my flowers turned out; They far exceeded my expectations. You won't regret working with Elishia :)

perfect! I could not recommend this adorable shoppe, and Elishia enough! Thank you again!!!

they worked with while planning their wedding. Absolutely fabulous! I am so glad that they selected Lakeside Floral for their flowers!

ow beautiful everything was. Thank you Lakeside Floral for making our day so gorgeous!

together the "vision" that I wanted to create for our wedding. She is so easy to talk to and does everything she can to meet expectations, while staying within budget. I can't thank Elishia enough for making our wedding so beautiful!

s you vases for all of your bouquets AND gives you a "Throw Bouquet" for free! At the last minute, she added a boutonniere and was very generous regarding that!

hia will work with you to make sure you are getting exactly what you want, which I cannot thank her enough for being so great!

rk with. Elishia worked her magic and put together bright, unique artworks for our wedding. I would highly recommend Lakeside Floral for any flowers you require!

ould all come together. In the end all the bouquets were beautiful. I also bought flower bunches so I could arrange my own centerpieces and she was spot on about the amount of flowers needed.

o super flexible when I arrived late to an appointment with her after being stuck in traffic. We also had a pretty low budget for flowers, and Elishia suggested doing 4 large centerpieces and then smaller centerpieces on the other tables. This helped us save quite a bit of money, and the room looked stunning. It was the perfect touch. Our bouquets were gorgeous, and I was just so appreciative of how easy and stress-free Elishia made everything. I would highly recommend her!

n I ever imagined! Highly recommended!

d she designed beautiful floral arrangements that perched on top of the books. She was so thrilled to take my vision and run with it. She is also very up front and honest about cost and was very willing to work within our budget. I love Elishia and our experience with Lakeside Floral!

my approach--I didn't have "wedding colors" just a poppy red dress that my bridesmaids picked out (that they WILL wear again) and my intent to have the wedding feel be "casual elegant". And boy it was that! Thanks to Elishia and her team! During our first meeting, she showed me a selection of silk flowers of various types of flowers so I could get a vision of size and look & feel. Many florists choose to show you pictures, not the real thing--this was a huge selling point for me. She also did a great job of setting my expectations with the uncertainty of the upcoming peony crop (it was October and my wedding was in May) and showed me some alternatives in case mother nature had other ideas. I knew from that point on, I could trust Elishia and her team to bring my wedding look to life. And boy did they deliver! The mix of white flowers (w/peonies) and greens with a pop of poppy red color were show stopping on the bouquets and the table settings! I also appreciated that their delivery included setting up the table centerpieces. I cannot recommend Lakeside Floral enough! I am also proud to recommend a woman-owned business and one that is local to my hometown. I look forward to working with them on floral designs for my home and other celebrations.
