Wallflower Designs

I highly recommend Wallflower Designs to anyone who is looking for a wonderful florist in the area!! She was far beyond what I could have asked for in a florist.

wanted for our wedding! She took the time to get to know our style and vision, the types of flowers we wanted, etc. The wedding florals were stunning. I highly recommend Wallflower Designs!

to go with Marla and her team. The flowers on our wedding day were more beautiful than I could imagine! Marla has a true eye for color and textures and her aesthetic is exquisite, we received so many compliments on the flowers throughout the night. You will not regret going with Wallflower Designs for your wedding day florist!

flowers to be colorful, artistic and modern. Based on their website, they were the perfect match! I was so impressed with everything they did. They went above and beyond! Marla was awesome to work with. She helped me create a perfect look for my wedding, from linen and chairs colors to flower choices and design. She took my vision and ran with it. She was easy to get ahold of whenever I had a question too. Marla and her team are truly amazing!! I was super lucky to get them as a vendor.

endations, and took the time to show her portfolio of work for inspiration as well. At no point did I feel like she was trying to sell me on something I didn’t want. Her and her team were professional, my centerpieces turned out bigger than I ever dreamt of, and she even worked with my venue to use and decorate their arch (which looked identical to the design outline she provided)! She even helped me formulate a pattern of decor on the rows of farmhouse tables throughout my venue so that it would look full and cohesive. We got so many compliments from older and younger guests alike. To be honest, I am very Type A, picky, and can definitely hover over people. Wallflower Designs was so phenomenal and professional throughout the whole process and proactively communicated with me and left me worry-free the whole wedding planning process. I would recommend them to everyone I know!!!

Highly recommend Wallflower Designs.

enue, so we decided to give her a call. In our meeting with Marla, it was clear she is one of the best and extremely professional. Booking Marla was one of the best choices we made for our wedding!! She is an artist, extremely talented, and a wonderful and kind person. Marla helped take my color ideas and encouraged a few pops of color. If you hire her and allow her to do her art, she will help make your day so special. My guests and friends could not say enough about our florals!! We are so grateful, and we both will encourage all of our friends to think mindfully about their floral vendors and the important role they play. Marla is just perfection-cannot recommend enough!!

andmade flower girl garlands, the incredible floral arch that Marla custom built to create a stunning backdrop during our ceremony.... The care and expertise and beauty of her floral design was truly like nothing I’ve ever seen before. Even the wrist corsages for the moms and the handmade twig baskets with rose petals for the flower girls were so delicate and beautifully designed. From the start Marla was such a joy to work with. She is so relaxed, personable, attentive. She was so responsive to questions and ideas, and when our wedding venue changed from a traditional site to our backyard, due to the pandemic, she didn't miss a beat, coming out to our home for inspiration, and creating the most romantic and beautiful backdrop for the best day of our lives. Marla is so talented at what she does, but also the kindest, sweetest woman. We are so grateful for all she did for us during the wedding planning process and on our wedding day. We would recommend Marla 110% for anyone needing flowers for any occasion. She goes above and beyond and is such a pleasure to work with. And her work is absolutely out of this world. Thank you Marla so so much for truly making our wedding day more beautiful than we ever could have imagined!!

lly have a vision of what I wanted for flowers- but she listened to me intently and created beautiful, colorful, unique flowers for our wedding. She also helped with bringing our "king's table" vision to life. My sister also used her for her wedding so I knew we wouldn't be disappointed! Marla is a dream to work with!

h and colorful florals she was someone I knew I needed to contact. I had met with Marla and she showed me some of her previous work and weddings and I was instantly amazed and stunned she knew exactly what I was looking for and the color variations to compliment our bridesmaids dress without matching them. I love that we gave Marla full reign on our florals and she created and sketched this beautiful drawing of some of our florals that I actually framed because it was som creative and a really nice keepsake for us from our wedding. Marla’s work speaks for itself she has such a creative eye and really knows her stuff about flowers and what compliments and pairs extremely well together. Most brides have a set look for florals and I will say out of all the weddings I have attended I’ve seen the same types of flowers and with Marla her bouquets are so different and unique and vibrant it was a no brainer for us to go with her. From our ceremony and our giant pergola to our reception everything was done in great timing and it was all so beautiful and we had so many compliments from our guests at how stunned and beautiful our flowers were. We had two weddings giving the circumstances for our wedding and Marla made sure our original wedding date that we got all the same florals and not much was different from the two days and she made both our wedding date and reception both so so special. I can not imagine our day without her she made all our hopes and dreams come true. I loved my bouquet so much I took it to a preservation company so I can cherish those flowers she put together for me for many years to come I loved them so much. Marla your work is incredible and you are the sweetest person who was there to answer every question and who assured me that they were going to be stunning and they were nothing but pure beauty and beyond anything I had envisioned from the start. Thank you for everything that you did to make our day so special we are beyond lucky to have had you a part of our two days ❤️

f the way, and created our vision to a “T.” She was always prompt, timely, organized, and extremely helpful in guiding us to visualize and construct our ideas into a concept. Her office was clean, inviting, and complete with a broad selection of photos of her work and floral options. Marla also had several examples of vase and container selectionsfor us to pick from. We eventually decided upon a unique glass hob nail jar and rippled tin collection that kept our theme of rustic elegance alive! I can’t say I’ve seen these at anyone’s wedding before ours (we went to 8 weddings this year!) this made us feel the real uniqueness of Marla’s offerings. Marla even created a design preview of our large hanging ceremony piece and ensured that we had a vision of what our wedding day would look like. She was also great at reminding us what pieces we may have wanted but forgot to think about (grandmother corsages, rose ceremony hand outs, guest table additions.) We greatly appreciated that in discussions like these, and all others, that she did not push ideas or costs we were not looking for. She always respected our budget, and at no point felt pushy or overbearing. Each meeting felt like an afternoon with a friend. On the big day, we were finally able to enjoy Marla’s creations! I was absolutely blown away...I couldn’t even count how many guests gushed over the flowers that night. Their vibrant fragrance, their unique pairings, and excellent quality were a constant discussion even weeks after the wedding. Marla found not just gorgeous flowers but incredible grasses, fauna, and even seed pods to create incredible variation and different fall look. Marla even did work behind the scenes the night of the wedding that I didn’t catch as I bustled around. She helped us repurpose particular bouquets and floral arrangements to save on cost, and everything was completed seamlessly and without any disruption. If you want a reliable, imaginative, creative, and passionate florist to design for your wedding, Marla is absolutely it! I will recommend her to any bride for ANY design style for years to come. She was such a lucky find for us, and I just know she’s going to make every bride so happy as her heart is in her work!

e connected on Skype, since I live out of state, and immediately, I got a sense of calm in talking to her. I know very little about flowers, and was unsure of what specifically I wanted, but in asking a few questions about my wedding in general, she was able to make suggestions on what we could do, and how it would work with my budget. She also shared images of her previous work, and we discussed styles I liked and disliked. It was clear in talking to her, that Marla is a master at her craft, and in hiring her, I could let her do what she does best! After signing the contract, we stayed in touch via email, and met in person once when I was back in IL. Marla was always easy to get in touch with, flexible and accommodating throughout the entire process. We were able to rent items through her, such as votive candles and other details. While I know some brides prefer to buy items like these, since we live out of state in a tiny apartment, this was such a convenience! And on the big day, the flowers were oh so beautiful! Everything turned out better than I could have imagined, and we got so many compliments on the flowers, especially the bouquets and boutonnieres. I am truly grateful Marla was a part of our wedding and highly recommend her to any bride!

al day come to life by filling it with the most gorgeous flowers! We are so grateful to have worked with her! 10/10 would recommend!

n wedding and she was able to create an extremely unique Indian wedding arch (Mandap). I was obsessed with the centerpieces she created for the reception. She was very easy to work with and such a nice person! She's not your typical wedding florist. If you want something unique please check out Wallflower Designs!

my hair.... everything was just breathtaking and more then i could picture. LOVE her.

e final product. All of the planning meetings were well organized and she helped us figure out exactly what we wanted. The bouquets were breathtaking, the centerpieces were absolutely beautiful, and she even put together an adorable little flower wand for our 15 month old flower girl to hold. Our guests were complimenting the flowers all evening. We were absolutely blown away and would highly recommend Wallflower to anyone.

The flowers were so beautiful that I even cried when I first saw my bouquet! She worked with my mom to surprise me that she took part of my grandmas wedding dress who passed away and wrapped it around the base of the flowers to make it even more special. She had us go through all different pictures and point out what we liked and did not like about them and was able to really customize the flowers to have everything perfect.

to explain my vision, Marla was really helpful. She pulled up lots of different pictures so that I could tell her things I did and did not like. From those general concepts, she was able to craft a look that exactly matched what I was looking for. Marla was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. She was so sweet and calm, and easy to work with. Overall the flowers were exactly what I was looking for - from the bouquets and centerpieces, all the way down to the olive sprigs in the napkins, everything looked perfect. Her attention to detail really came through, and we received numerous compliments from friends and family. We can’t say enough about Marla, and would highly recommend Wallflower Designs for your wedding florals.

ancé and I decided to change venues and could no longer use Wallflower Designs, we had a great experience with them.

wanted to book her for my wedding this past Memorial Day weekend 2018. I met with Marla, gave her my colors, a rough budget, and some of my favorite textures/flowers, and from there, complete creative freedom to be her artistic self! As I expected, Marla went above and beyond my expectations and created the most beautiful, dynamic, and vibrant arrangements. I got nothing but compliments and couldn't have been happier to use her masterpieces to accent my wedding venue and party. Thank you! Book with Marla and don't think twice. She is the best!

e flowers all night long!! She was incredibly easy to work with and always responsive to email and calls.

hose Marla because I loved the photos of her work on social media, but after I talked with her I knew Marla was the florist I had been searching for! She takes the time to really understand your vision and then she takes that vision and makes it a million times better… so much better than you could ever possibly envision on your own. Marla made my jaw drop three different times on my wedding day; when I got my bouquet, when I was walking down the aisle and saw the pergola she so beautifully decorated and when I saw all the amazing table arrangements at the reception. It was absolutely stunning! I also have to mention that I was planning my wedding out of state. Marla went above and beyond to accommodate my long distance wedding planning and she is just fabulous to work with! I feel so lucky to have had Marla share her amazing work with us on our wedding day and I highly recommend her to every bride out there! THANK YOU MARLA!

day. The centerpieces and personal flowers were better than I ever could have imagined, and we received so many compliments from our guests on her work. I highly recommend Marl - you will not regret working with her for your wedding!

I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you for making my wedding so romantic and so beautiful!

all of our floral needs (bouquets, centerpieces, ceremony, cake deco, reception hall deco, etc...). The planning process was easy and extremely detailed which made things a whole lot less stressful! One of the most amazing things about Marla is that I had absolutely no idea what I really wanted for our flowers - just an idea that I wanted rustic elegance made up of burgundy, ivory, and gold - she took this simple information and transformed it into a plan that exceeded expectations. Marla was also really great at working within our budget - giving us tips & tricks to get the look we wanted and not having to spend more than we wanted to get it. Wallflower Designs is a full service florist which really makes the big day stress free - a lot of my girlfriends had florists who simply dropped off flowers which then had to be set-up by either the bride and her "girls" or the venue. Working with Marla, however meant that she was there to set-up all flowers prior to the ceremony & reception and she even re-purposed ceremony flowers into the reception & dancing area after the ceremony!!! All I can say is if you want a knowledgeable florist, who is easy to work with, extremely organized, and who can make all your floral dreams come true - Wallflower Designs is the ONLY way to go!

d a ton of ideas in my head and did not know exactly what I was looking for. Marla was SO patient with me, and worked with me to come up with exactly what I wanted. Marla was so professional and personal through the entire time I worked with her! She was very responsive and open to any changes that I made. When I walked into our reception it was breathtaking! What Marla created for us was above and beyond my expectations. Everything was beautiful! The way that she repurposed all of our flowers was seamless, and she made the process so easy! I could not have asked for anything more and would absolutely recommend that people use Marla for their wedding day! Thank you SO much Marla!

d praise her work. She is the best of the best and is so sweet to work with. Love her!!

n't have a color palette or wedding theme, per se, so we knew our wedding flowers were going to be our visual wow-factor element and needed to be extra special. Marla did not disappoint! She was so friendly and personable, and even though I was having a hard time turning my thoughts into words at our initial consultation, I felt like she totally understood the direction I was going and was prepared with pictures and suggestions on what would work with our vision and budget. She was organized and easily maneuvered multiple sets of quotes, my indecisiveness, special requests and last minute changes. She totally knocked it out of the park, and I can't tell you how many people remarked on how beautiful the bouquets and floral arrangements were. Marla and her team worked quickly to repurpose our ceremony flowers for the reception and were also on hand at the end of the night to help us pack away flowers to take home--something I totally did not expect! I absolutely loved working with Marla and what she did for us on our big day and recommend her services to anyone looking for a wedding florist!

d and her flowers made my whole wedding come alive. And her prices were very competitive and fit in our budget perfectly. I truly cannot recommend her highly enough. Book her immediately!

rangements I could imagine. Her attention to detail is remarkable and I would highly recommend her!

opinions very well. The flowers turned out so beautiful and everything else fell into place so perfectly under her artistic care and direction. It was everything I imagined and more!

I didn't really go in with a clear vision of what I wanted and actually ended up changing half way through anyways. Marla worked hard to make sure she understood my vision and brought it to life! She did an absolutely phenomenal job, she's a true artist. I would recommend her to absolutely anybody and would use her service again and again! Thank you, Marla!!

iful flowers I have ever seen at a wedding. Her flowers help transform our wedding into an elegant and memorable affair. Look no further for your florist.

n’t know I wanted) on our initial meeting. She provided great suggestions, made excellent recommendations, and really came to understand my wedding day vision. On our second meeting, she showed my mom and I all of the flowers she planned to use, brainstormed ideas for vases that fit the theme, and took detailed notes about my wedding party, reception, and ceremony. She was professional the entire time, but also came to feel like a trusted friend. We felt completely confident in her execution of our wedding flower vision, often telling her “we trust you, Marla!” The week of the wedding, I stopped by to see her and drop off some personal items and she checked in to make sure I was calm and excited and even sent me off with a hug! On our wedding day, Marla met us at the church and identified all of my family members, bridal party members, and honored guests to provide them their flowers for the day. She also made sure the church was perfectly set-up and ready. Marla even stayed calm when I asked her, last-minute, to add a detail to my bridal bouquet that I had received from my Grandfather. But most importantly, Marla came to the bridal suite to meet me, make sure my flowers were perfect and ready to go, and to give me one last hug before heading down the aisle. At the Arboretum, where we were holding our reception, Marla made sure each and every single table was perfectly arranged. Her attention to detail and extensive dedication to our wedding day vision, ensured that it was more beautiful than we could have ever imagined! But above all, the flowers! Oh the flowers! I cannot even describe how perfectly they complimented all of the other décor that I had spent over a year gathering, creating, and preparing for our wedding day. The flowers were the perfect combination of asymmetric, wild, elegant, metallic, fragrant and romantic – just what I had asked for. Every guest I’ve spoken to since our wedding has mentioned how perfect the flowers were. I highly recommend Marla of Wallflower Designs without any reservations at all. I wish I had another wedding to plan, just to get to work with her again!!

owers, but Marla quickly picked up on what I like and made a perfect flower plan for our wedding! Marla has a great eye for details and was awesome setting up on our wedding day. Everyone complimented our flowers and they were unbelievably beautiful, Marla is amazing.

exactly what i wanted. It could not have turned out more perfect.

to get a feel for what you're going for and totally succeeds! I got a flower crown, bouquets for me and bridesmaids, boutonnieres, and flowers for the aisle at the church. They came out even more wonderful than I imagined. So creative over there! She was a joy to work with, as well! :)

and ran with it. My bouquets were huge and full of color, perfect for our mid summer wedding. When I first saw my bouquet, I actually cried a little. :) The flowers she used for the reception room helped transform it into something amazing! We couldn't have been happier and she definitely exceeded our expectations! She made the process stress free! I highly recommend using her!

anted, but could never really describe. She had great ideas and was creative, but stilled maintained my vision. The personal service she offers can't be duplicated - dropping flowers off at 3 different locations, personally pinning on the boutonierres. The staff at our church asked for her card, saying they had never seen such beautiful work.

urned out as well as they did. She designed all the bouquets, altar pieces, reception centerpeices, etc. The centerpieces were perfect. I brought in an example of what I wanted for some of the tables - tall with branches and flowers - and she designed something even better incorporating my colors, which were purple and silver. A staff member at the Hyatt pulled us aside when we checked out to compliment us on the centerpieces. He said they were amoung the best he'd seen. I couldn't agree more!

She also delivered the flower and moved them from the ceremony to the reception so we could reuse them. The bouquets and centerpieces were beautiful and were great in the photographs.
