Fiore Floral did a great job. They worked hard to keep me within my budget and I think the flowers turned out beautiful. I needed some flexibility at the last minute when I learned our venue would not let the flower girls toss rose petals, and Fiore floral substituted flower arrangements in their baskets. Overall, I was very pleased.

This was a wonderful experience. The staff and designers at Fiore were great. The bouquets were absolutely wonderful. The brides's bouquet was spectacular. They also did the arrangements at the reception which were breathtaking. I looked far and wide and couldn't find a florist to compare with Fiore for quality and design.

What a great job! I designed all of my bouquets and pieces myself and they had a designer on hand who really helped me realize all of my visions. He provided amazing suggestions to improve my ideas. They were on time to the wedding even though there was terrible traffic that day. They got everything set up quickly and correctly. Everything was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. My bouquet was my dream bouquet. Their prices are amazing for the quality of design you get.

I highly recommend Fiore Floral for wedding florals. I interviewed many florists and what I loved about Fiore was that at my first meeting where I described to Noel, the floral designer, what I was looking for, he was able to quickly walk into the refrigerated flower room in the front part of the store where they keep hundreds of every type of freshly cut flower and show me how he was interpreting my deion. He then showed me examples with the flowers they had on hand, other arrangements I might also like. About a month before the wedding, they did a sample arrangement so I could make sure I was happy with the final product. They were perfect! I received so many compliments on the florals at our wedding and really enjoyed working with Noel, Suhe and the rest of the staff and look forward to working with them again in the future.

We would like to thank everyone at Fiore Floral for their beautiful, memorable flower arrangements and bouquets at my daughters wedding. The flowers were fresh and beautiful as well as creatively arranged.
We had a meeting with Fiore attended by parents, bride and groom. The bride told Noel the designer and Robin what they were looking for, both the colors and the feel they wanted. Noel went to the back, took out flowers he thought were correct and that was it. It was perfect choices.
They also custom made the Chuppah (Jewish wedding canopy) with a veil that had been worn by the brides mother and aunt at their weddings. The veil became part of the top of the chuppah. It was beautiful and very meaningful. And, we decided to have a floral cake topper 2 days before the wedding and it was taken care of and beautiful.
My thanks to everyone at Fiore.

Our flowers were so beautiful, I only wish I had more time to savor them. Noel is an artist. When the flowers we picked were out of season (unusually warm Spring) Noel called me with his flower purveyor and picked the perfect replacement. The time frame that they worked with was so short, and yet, they were able to have everything set up in time. We received so many compliments. I would definitely recommend Fiore to anyone.

I would highly recommend Fiore Floral to everybody. They were very supportive, accomodated all my needs, were ready to do any changes I wanted. I was not sure what exactly do I want and their wedding coordinator and designers team helped me to figure out what do I need. The resulting arrangments were ecactly what I wanted, were fresh and elegant and suited the whole weddingdecorations and theme very well.
Thank you Fiore Floral for adding beauty and elegance to my wedding.

Fiore Floral recently came under new management. I had signed a contract with the old owners, so I was concerned to learn a couple of months before my wedding that the ownership had changed. As it turned out, I had nothing to worry about. Mr. Harnood and his staff did a fabulous job!

Fiore Floral provided absolutely beautiful flowers for my March wedding. It was a pleasure to work with Noel and Robin. They are friendly and very knowledgeable. Their passion for flowers shined through during our conversations and in the arrangements they put together. They made wonderful suggestions and listened to exactly what I envisioned for my wedding day. I would highly recommend Fiore Floral to any bride and groom. The red roses in every bouquet and centerpiece were stunning. The flowers lasted well beyond the wedding day and remained beautiful! Thank you!

Lynn Biondi was a pleasure to work with. She was warm and inviting ever since the day we met. She went above and beyond for our wedding and the flowers turned out beautiful. Her confidence and ideas were helpful. She had great insight in what my vision was for the wedding and everything came out perfectly. We met several times and we changed things many times, but she was always willing and able to change everything even until the last minute. I am so fortunate to have met Lynn and to have worked with her. The centerpieces and flowers were a hit and I thank Lynn and the rest of her staff for making my wedding very special and memorable.

We were very impressed with our flowers. This florist really worked with our budget and delivered far beyond our expectations. I also slacked and was still able to book them one week before our wedding. Noel did our flowers and everyone thought they were beautiful. I would highly recommend to all.

Fiore was the first and only florist I met with for my wedding flowers. Initially, I chose this florist because of convenience since they are located about a mile from where I live and only a few more miles from my wedding site. But I soon discovered that they are the in-house florist for the Glenview Mansion, my wedding location, and they’ve arranged flowers for countless weddings there. Learning this info and seeing book after book of gorgeous flower arrangements while talking to Lynn gave me the confidence to look no further.
Lynn’s service was professional and dedicated – she joined me for appointments with my caterer to make sure all of the details such as linens, cake, etc. coordinated well with the flowers. A last minute glitch in the ceremony décor called for a redesign of the proposal and Lynn and I worked together to create a floral masterpiece straight out of a fairytale. The wedding was held in a beautiful location, but it was the gorgeous floral arrangements that transformed the space into a spectacular event.

I honestly can not say enough wonderful things about Fiore Floral, it was far and away one of the best and easiest decisions I made during the wedding planning process. Finding them was nothing short of serendipity and I am so lucky that I did b/c they played an integral part in making my day as spectacularly beautiful as it was. When I scheduled a meeting with Lynn Biondi, one of the owners of Fiore, I had already met with 4 other florists none of whom seemed to "get" my somewhat ambiguous vision. Upon walking into Fiore floral I was just overcome by the tranquility and beauty of the space. The owners of Fiore have created a serene canvas for their blooms and the scents and colors were amazing. During our first meeting Lynn must have spent over an hour reviewing albums, showing me actual pieces the team was working on for other weddings, bringing out differnt flowers and plants to show me and listening to me as I gave her vague, one-word descrpitions of the floral feel I had in mind. Together (and by this I mean mostly Lynn) we developed a rough sketch of the flowers for my wedding and it was EXACTLY what I had hoped for, the exact look and feel I wanted to create. I waited anxiously for an estimate and was astounded when Lynn returned to me a very reasonable proposal. Having been to her shop and viewed the work of Fiore I knew that I would be getting the highest quality blooms and skills and such was the case. The flowers at my wedding were nothing short of breathtaking. Lynn and her team created 2 urns for the cermony that were overfolwing with THE most beautiful, lush flowers I have ever seen, they were truly a masterpiece to behold. My bouquet was exquisite, truly a work of art with all of the colors we had discussed in our first meeting. Every bud and bloom was delivered as promised only better, the same level of artistry went into everything from reception centerpieces to bouttonieres to bouquets and even the bathroom arrangement.
AS a very perfectionist bride I look back now with a critical eye and think to myself that x, y, or z could have been improved upon but the only regret I have about my flowers is that they could not be preserved in all of thier splendor as they were on this wonderful day. I can not say one critical thing about my work with Fiore. For that one reviewer who claimed that they were hard to get a hold of, all I can say is that I personally found emails to be the easiest way to communicate with all of my vendors and Lynn would seldom take more than a half day to return an email, and more often than not it was a matter of hours. Fiore was also incredibly flexible, I was adding items up until a week before the event and was never met with anything other than graciousness and amenability. The entire experience was a joy and I would recommend them to anyone for any event. It would be a pleasure to do business with them again and I have already requested that my husband exclusively purchase flowers for me at Fiore :)

My daughter and I met with Lynn Biondi about a year before the wedding. We were so pleased with Lynn and her wonderful suggestions. My daughter knew exactly what she wanted and I let Lynn know what our budget was. Lynn accommodated us in every way. I had gone to other florists, but FIORE FLORAL was the one that won my daughter and I over. Lynn and her staff were fantastic and very easy to work with. Everything was beautiful and perfect from the bridal bouquet, to the bridesmaid bouquets, the boutonnieres, the aisle markers, aisle runner with rose petals, centerpieces, to the chuppah.
We received many compliments about how beautiful the wedding was, especially the chuppah. We would recommend FIORE FLORAL to everyone.
