Come On Eileen!!

Of all the vendors I worked with for my wedding, Eileen truly stood out the most. She is so clearly passionate about what she does—you can hear her smile over the phone. She is warm, pleasant, and an absolute joy to work with. Her communication is excellent, and she responds to emails quickly, which gave me so much peace of mind during planning.

What impressed me most about working with Eileen was how she helped me achieve my full vision without feeling like I had to compromise because of cost. Other florists gave me sky-high quotes that forced me to cut things I really wanted, but Eileen was different. She worked with me to prioritize my focal pieces so they could be big and beautiful, and then we adjusted other areas to make everything fit within a price I was comfortable with. I never felt like I had to sacrifice my vision—she was flexible, creative, and thoughtful in every suggestion.

She also went above and beyond by personally being on-site for both set-up and take-down. That level of commitment and care meant so much and showed how dedicated she is to her clients. She even pointed out areas of our venue I hadn’t considered adding floral to, and her suggestions made the overall design even more stunning.

My only constructive feedback is that I wish credit card payments didn’t come with a fee. That aside, I could not have been happier. I would recommend Eileen again and again to any bride—she is truly amazing at what she does.

Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Cocktails Decor

Eileen and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with from our initial consultation to the night of our events. Eileen took care of everything. She created a tropical oasis in two different venues for our son and daughter in law's rehearsal dinner and welcome cocktail parties.

Wonderful!

Eileen and her team were excellent to work with for our wedding florals. We interviewed several florists in the early stages of planning, and our conversation with Eileen was by far the most depthful and attentive. This level of care and attention to detail continued through our planning process. Eileen was very receptive to feedback and happily made tweaks to ensure that our florals perfectly matched our color scheme. We received several compliments on the florals at the wedding; a relative in the wedding industry said they were the most beautiful florals they've seen at a wedding they attended. We highly, highly recommend Eileen and Lake Forest Flowers!
