I was absolutely floored with how gorgeous our florals came out! Jori matched my inspo and overall vibe I was hoping to achieve - to a tee! She incorporated all of the flowers I as...
ked for in my bouquet and created the shape and effect I was looking for in the venue arrangements. We had a short planning timeline and some unexpected changes and she worked with us on all of it. I wish I had my final photos back to share just how truly gorgeous every single arrangement was. I am truly obsessed with the exquisite designs they created for us and will find any and every excuse to work with them again!
Working with Romee Willows was one of the best wedding decisions we made (and wow does wedding planning require a lot of decisions!) As an artist, I was extra focused on all of the...
aesthetic decisions. After reading her bio online and finding out that she had a background in fine arts, I was sold. Jori is so kind and such a talented artist and florist. Planning a wedding can be so stressful, but I never felt stressed when working with her. She created a detailed mood board and kept me involved throughout the process, asking me about candle colors and fixtures.
Her floral arrangements, bouquets, centerpieces, and chuppah truly created an enchanting, dreamlike space. So many people have told us that our flowers were the most beautiful wedding flowers they’ve ever seen, and I don’t doubt it for a second. Forever grateful to Jori and her team for helping create such a magical, unforgettable night.
We are absolutely obsessed with the flowers Jori and her team did for our June 2025 wedding at 167 Green Street. I’m attaching some photos but they don’t even do it justice - my ja...
w dropped when I walked into the room and saw the magic they worked.
I had a very specific vision in terms of colors and theme, but I left flower selection, shape, etc. all completely up to Jori and she designed and executed it all flawlessly. My husband just kept repeating how incredible the flowers looked as if he was in shock, but after interviewing over 15 other florists before choosing Jori, I was not one bit surprised at how perfect the florals were.
Our venue is a lot of dark gray and glass, and can feel a little corporate and cold if the design doesn’t intentionally warm it up. I had asked for monochrome blush-mauve-berry, but the actual shades Jori chose made the room feel bright and welcoming and cozy all at the same time. Everything Jori planned worked for both our ceremony during daylight and during the reception when it got dark, which I didn’t realize would be so important when I was thinking about wedding planning. We also asked for a hanging installation that I imagine was difficult to create, and it was the perfect scale and design for the space.
I can’t end my review without also noting how lovely Jori was to work with. She was incredibly responsive throughout the planning process and is just an absolute joy and treasure of a person. There was no better choice of florist for our wedding and I promise that if you go with Romee Willow, you will be in good hands.
Romee Willow Florals created the wedding florals of our dreams! Our venue, Firehouse Chicago, provided Romee Willow Florals on the vendor list and we went with them for the quality...
and artistry of the florists, shout out to Jori! We were able to do an intimate wedding package, which was perfect since the venue is so beautifully decorated that we wanted florals to work with the space. It was great working with Jori on designing the vision and her communication for pickup/delivery was so great. The florals Jori designed for us were magical with in season flowers like zinnias, black eyed susans, roses, dahlias and marigolds. The votives and vases provided were perfect and our family loved their boutonnieres and corsages. We even did a floral bunch for the arch my husband’s father made for us and it looked incredible.I loved my bouquet, it was perfect and so me. In fact, I liked it so much that I’m having it preserved! The florals really made the space come to life! If you’re throwing a Chicago wedding, work with Romee Willow Florals! Thank you for being a part of the best day of our lives!

We chose Romee Willow for our wedding, and I’m still dreaming about my wedding flowers. I was initially choosing between two florists, but Jori's openness, warmth, and honesty imme...
diately stood out. She even shares educational content about wedding flowers and the floral industry, which helped me understand more about what was possible, what was seasonal, and how to make the most of our budget. From our first meeting at her studio to the final arrangements on our wedding day, she was collaborative, clear, and incredibly talented. Every bouquet and floral piece was breathtaking. She brought my vision to life and then some. When I had a last-minute change in aesthetic, she embraced it with grace and delivered beyond expectations. Truly one of the best decisions we made.
I cannot recommend Jori and her team enough! She truly brought my vision to life for both the ceremony and reception. From the deconstructed arch for our ceremony to the bouquets a...
nd beautiful centerpieces, every arrangement was perfectly tailored to match my style. Her attention to detail and creativity transformed our space into a dream wedding setting. We were beyond thrilled with how everything turned out and received a ton of compliments! Not to mention, Jori did excellent replacement of our ceremony arch and flowers so we could get more use out of them :) Thank you for helping create our dream wedding. We feel beyond grateful to have had you and any future wedding is extremely lucky to have you!!

avigated our vision. We felt confident we were in the right hands the moment we met Jori. We loved all her suggestions and really loved her execution.
Jori was with us along the whole ride, answering any questions we had and providing encouragement and feedback where needed. We also had a tight budget and a LOT of unexpected life events that effected our finances right before the wedding. Jori was SO kind, so unjudging and so helpful during that time, helping us meet our floral dreams even with the last minute revisions. We really appreciated that.
We could say SO much more, but just do yourself a favor and have the most aesthetic wedding ever by working with Jori!!!

The wedding was even more beautiful than what I had pictured in my head and she perfectly captured my goal of "elegant wildflowers" and "romantic vibes" - it literally could not have been more perfect!! I will always recommend Romee Willow to everyone I know! Thank you Jori!!
We LOVED working with Jori and Romee Willows Florals. Jori worked with our budget and our vision - not just offering another cookie cutter package. Her quote and design processes ...
were transparent and clear. She made us feel confident, even though florals seemed like a foreign language to us at first.
AND BOY, did she deliver! Our florals turned out a million times better than I could have even imagined. She captured our vision perfectly, and her work MADE our wedding vibe a reality. From my bouquet, to our statement stairs piece, to the hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of candles she provided, Jori created the romantic winter wedding of our dreams. She is truly an artist and any bride's dream team florist partner.

We worked with Jori at Romee Willow Florals for our September 2022 wedding. Jori came highly recommended by our venue, The Joinery, where she has done beautiful work numerous times...
. After meeting with her and getting a very thorough proposal we were sold. Jori was very responsive, professional, and thoughtful throughout our wedding planning process. Our initial proposal was completed almost two years before our actual wedding so she was very flexible and essentially worked with us to create a new updated proposal closer to our wedding date once we had more planned and had more clearly decided on what we wanted florals-wise. We also liked that Jori had a wide variety of options for votives, candles, and compotes that we could choose from to go with our florals. In the end, Jori exceeded our expectations with a gorgeous hanging installation, a beautiful bridal bouquet, a floral crown, 12 bridesmaids bouquets, boutonnieres, reception florals, and more. Everything was beautiful and we got so many compliments! Her work was simply stunning! We are so grateful for the role Jori played in making our wedding day an absolute dream and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone else!

e vision of what we wanted our wedding flowers to be. Jori was able to create the most beautiful bouquets, boutonnieres, and table arrangements that went above and beyond our lackluster description - I was stunned! And so were our guests! The venue and ceremony site looked amazing and I can't thank Jori enough. Additionally, her pricing was very upfront and affordable which I appreciated as well. Thank you to the Romee Willow team!

lutely delivered on the big day. All of her pricing, quotes and payment processes were easy and transparent.
All our our guests were asking if they could take the centerpieces home. Jori designed for us a chuppah (a canopy used in Jewish wedding ceremonies) made of birch and flowers, which blended perfectly with the backdrop of our ceremony. We could not have asked for a better experience.

she did a great job of thinking up ideas that perfectly complimented everything else. Jori was easy to work with throughout the whole process--from consultation to booking to month before prep. On the wedding day, Jori and her team delivered our wedding party flowers in convenient containers to take with us on our wedding trolley. They did an amazing job decorating our venue--the ceremony room, reception room, bar area, and foyer. The flowers were perfectly arranged and chosen to match our theme. We cannot recommend Romee Willow Florals enough for your wedding! Thank you to Jori and team for making our special day so special!

truly helped our vision come to life perfectly - I walked into the event space and was obsessed with the romantic autumnal vibe she brought to life in a hanging piece and tablescapes. The bridal party bouquets and personal items were the perfect compliment. I know the day wouldn't have been the same without Jori's work and would recommend her to anyone planning a wedding.
We loved working with Jori and the Romee Willow team for our wedding at the Chicago Botanic Garden! From the first call, Jori seemed to get our vision of a simple elegant backyard ...
party augmenting the natural beauty of the gardens. In addition to taking inspiration from a few photos and our color scheme, I was able to look at her vessels and voice what best matched our taste. She came up with arrangements that I would have never thought of and they were beyond beautiful. I loved my bouquet and was completely surprised and delighted with how well the bridesmaid bouquets went with their dresses. She went local when she could which I really appreciated! In the reception, the centerpieces were beautiful and several guests commented on how great they were! Throughout the whole process, Jori was very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend working with Jori and her team!

ly did she create my exact vision from a few shared photos, but in a way that complemented our venue so well. Her and her team created a hanging floral arrangement that was absolutely breathtaking. She is extremely talented and I can’t wait to find an excuse to work with her again!
We hired Jori in 2019 for our wedding that ended up being postponed from 2020 to 2021. Through the entire process, Jori was amazing to work with. When we first met, she completely ...
understood the aesthetic we were trying to achieve and had suggestions of her own. As the time got closer, any changes or new ideas I had were met with open conversation and easy integration. I actually saw a picture she posted for another event and asked if we could make something similar fit for our wedding- everything came out even better than I had envisioned. The florals and decor were absolutely stunning! I cannot recommend Jori and Romee Willow Florals enough. Thank you, Jori, for helping to make our wedding worth the wait!
While planning a wedding during a pandemic, we were looking for vendors that would take the stress off of us on our wedding day. Jori did just that. From the first Zoom consultatio...
n, to the big day, Jori put us at ease. Hiring Romee Willow Florals was one of our best decisions we made for our wedding day.
At our first meeting, Jori took our ideas and made them into a vision board. She knew exactly what we were thinking and made it a reality. She was one of the easiest vendors that we worked with; quick to respond to emails, answered every single question a nervous bride had, always friendly, and was just a joy to work with.
On our wedding day June 5th, 2021, everything came together. When the bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres arrived at the hotel, they were absolutely perfect. Jori was on time and had clear communication to make sure we had everything we needed. We had a hot June day and the flowers went everywhere with us for pictures. The flowers were so high quality and fresh that they still looked the same way at the end of the night that they did when they had in the morning. When we arrived at the venue, we were stunned. Jori and her team had come and gone and left magic behind. They had transformed our reception area to match the vision we had had from the beginning.
If I had to plan my wedding again, I would choose Jori and Romee Willow Florals again and again. She made my flowers unique to my personality and vision and was exactly what we needed on our special day. I cannot recommend Romee Willow Florals enough!!
Stop reading and go with Jori and her team! From beginning to end Jori was available and responsive. We had a few pictures and a color scheme we knew we liked which served as our...
inspiration, and with this she understood the look we wanted for our wedding and blew our expectations out of the water. We even had some last minute changes that she was able to miraculously work with (thank you for the garlands). Starting with the baraat to the end of the reception, the florals were unreal and we’ve never seen roses look so beautiful! We are still getting compliments over a month after our wedding about how beautiful the flowers looked. If we have the chance to work with Jori in the future we are absolutely doing it.
Romee Willow Florals & Jori were absolutely amazing and easy to work with! I was so absolutely impressed that after a quick 30 minute phone call Jori was able to create flower arra...
ngements that exceeded anything that I could have envisioned. We reviewed my needs and the different types of flowers that I wanted to include in my bouquets and she was able to create truly beautiful arrangements. Loved working with a female owned small business in my neighborhood for my wedding. Would highly recommend Romee Willow for any event or wedding!
Our experience with Jori from Romee Willow Florals was, simply put, phenomenal. Jori was such a pleasure to work with, beginning with the initial consultation when we talked about ...
the floral style and reviewed some ideas I'd saved to Pinterest. She immediately understood what we were going for and asked all the right follow-up questions to better understand things we weren't so sure about yet. From the beginning, I had complete faith in whatever Jori would put together. The slightly imperfect design of the florals created an almost ethereal feeling within the wood paneled space where our ceremony was held. We adored all of the flowers for our wedding and are thrilled with how much joy they brought to the day. Jori is highly creative of course, but also calm and communicative, all very important qualities when planning any event. I can't wait to have another reason to work with Romee Willow Florals again!
We highly recommend Romee Willow Florals!! My husband and I have little to no understanding of flowers, and I basically only knew what I didn't like. Jori was incredibly kind and p...
atient while helping us figure out our wedding's floral vision within our first consultation. We knew that we didn't have to shop around for any other florists after meeting her! We were blown away by how stunning our florals turned out, and we even ended up being under our floral budget. You won't regret booking with Romee Willow!

We had such a great experience working with Jori! From my first consultation phone call I knew Fab Flora was the way to go. Her work is not only stunning, but she is so kind and pr...
ofessional and made the whole process totally stress free. She did such an amazing job listening to our vision for the overall aesthetic for the wedding, and created absolutely perfect floral arrangements for the night. From the centerpieces, to the bouquets, to the boutonnieres - everything was perfect. Cannot recommend Fab Flora highly enough!
I can't say enough good things about Jori & Fab Flora! Not only did she pull together the most beautiful flowers for our wedding day (honestly, better than I ever could have hoped ...
for), but she was so supportive and flexible as each and every hiccup hit (everything ranging from taking us on last minute when we had an issue with our original florist, to changing delivery and setup on the day of as a result of weather issues).
We absolutely loved working with Jori to bring our vision for the wedding to life. She is so creative and easy to work with, and she was wonderful at helping us understand what was...
within our budget. Every piece that she created – from the flower arch and urns for the ceremony, to the bridal party bouquets, to the center pieces for the dinner table – was stunning and exactly what we were hoping for. Our venue was a very large space with a lot of concrete and brick, and the arrangements Jori created brought so much warmth and character to the space.
Jori from Fab Flora was very easy to work with! She was quick in her responses and accommodated multiple changes to my order to make my floral vision a reality! I was blown away by...
all of the bouquets and flower arrangements when I saw them in person on my wedding day!
Jori is very professional and creative, and I would highly recommend Fab Flora!
Jori was extremely attentive to detail and you can tell she truly has a passion for what she does. I emailed her what felt like 100 times, with questions and ideas, and she always ...
answered in a timely manner and took into consideration all that was requested. I asked for a loose, bohemian bouquet and that was exactly what was delivered. There were shades of greenery with ivory flowers, and the blush peonies took my breath away. The flowers remained fresh in the June heat and from a 1PM ceremony until Midnight. The flowers in the reception were absolutely stunning and delicate in the varied size clear glass vases. The gold votives gave off a glow, as well, which really set a romantic vibe. My husband even said he loved the twine detail of his boutonniere. From presentation to customer service, I cannot recommend Jori enough.
