We hired Lily as our florist for our October Wedding, and working with her was amazing! She was an absolute sweetheart, and had such amazing ideas. She made working with her easy, enjoyable, sfressfree, and all around fun!
She gave us everything we dreamed of and more. After meeting Lily, I approached her about adding charms to my bouquet and my husband's boutonniere and she added them in the most gorgeous way!
Working with Lily was one of my favorite parts of planning our wedding, and I'm so excited to work with her in the future for our floral needs.

I stumbled on this small buisness when planning our wedding, and I will encourage everyone to work with this amazing woman. I can't say enough good things about her!

My wife and I met Lily after giving up on the florist we were initially working with and were thrilled with the florals she did for our wedding. Everything she made was high quality, and she was very communicative every step of the way. During the planning stage she gave us plenty of options, including visuals, and didn't pressure us towards any decisions.

I knew we were going to be in the very best of hands from our first meeting with Lily for our wedding florals. Not only is she the sweetest, but her talent and creativity are truly unmatched. She listened intently to what we liked and didn’t like, and was always happy to provide numerous quote modifications and answer any questions we had during the entire process. The estimates were so nicely detailed including photos of not only the flowers, but vases, ribbon colors, votives and altar pieces. There were no details left out and no surprises. Walking down the grand staircase and seeing all of the gorgeous flowers on our wedding day, truly made our wedding all that more magical and special. One of the neatest parts, was that my cousin in Chicago actually referred me to Lily because they used to work together back in the day. This speaks volumes to the lasting impression that Lily leaves with not only her work, but her kindness. Her reputation has truly spanned across state lines! I had numerous options when it came down to choosing my other vendors. But there was only one when it came to my florals – Lily Forest Designs. She truly is the best of the best.

If I could give infinity stars I would! Lily absolutely blew us away and somehow managed to exceed expectations we didn’t even know we had. From day one, Lily made us feel like we were her only (and most important!) client, even though I know she was juggling a ton of weddings. Every email and idea was met with so much warmth and excitement. It felt like having a floral fairy godparent.

And let’s talk about flexibility...I changed my mind later in planning (the hanging amaranthus was sooo worth it). Lily handled it with total grace, zero stress, and a “we got you” attitude.

On the day of, Lily was in perfect sync with our planner (special shout-out to OBEC). It was smooth, seamless, and completely stress-free.

When my husband and I saw everything the day of, it was beyond what we pictured. I can't forget to mention the creative details Lily incorporated to make the day feel all that more personal to us. If you’re looking for a florist who’s equal parts artist, magician, and mind reader—Lily is the one!

Working with Lily was an absolute dream, and I truly cannot recommend her enough.

My husband and I aren’t the most creative people, but Lily instantly understood our vision and brought it to life with absolute perfection. She went above and beyond anything we could have imagined. Our venue even loved the ivy backdrop wall she designed for our ceremony so much that they kept it up after the wedding!

Beyond her stunning work, Lily herself is a joy to work with— she’s both extremely knowledgeable and one of the kindest people.

You truly can’t go wrong with Lily Forest Designs for your wedding or any floral occasion.

Lily was wonderful and easy to work with. She is amazing at creating beautiful floral designs that compliment the wedding gown and adds so much to the atmosphere of the party. Her retail space is filled with beautiful hand selected items and her love of flowers& design are evident at every step of the process. She is professional and detail oriented and a lovely person.

We loved working with Lily for the florals for our wedding! Our flowers were one of our favorite details, we would book her again and recommend her in a heartbeat.

Let’s start at the beginning - we sent her a few ideas/inspirations on our inquiry form and she had a full proposal with pictures and details that completely matched our vision that we described. We were impressed by how much work she put into our day before we had even booked her services. From there, it was a completely collaborative process. Partway through the planning process, we made an adjustment that significantly changed our floral plan and Lily was completely on board. We had to move our wedding inside due to weather and she pivoted seamlessly.

Her communication was stellar - she was easy to email with, fast to make changes when asked and always upfront about costs.

We whole heartedly recommend Lily!

WOW WOW WOW. Lily was an absolutely joy to work with. Not only was she our hype woman but also an incredible artist who made sure our vision came to life. I knew I wanted to do some part of the florals myself but for a florist to take on the big/important parts. Lily was not only game, but helped us make a game plan for the parts of the florals/table designs she wasn't responsible for so we would have everything we needed to succeed with the DIYs we had planned. She did our floral install at the end of the altar, the ground florals, and all bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres. She made the planning process so much fun and the final product was GORG. Would recommend Lily in a heartbeat.

While we loved all of our wedding vendors, working with Lily for our florals was the absolute highlight of the wedding planning process. She stood out from the beginning of the process as we inquired with various Madison florists. Her responsiveness and the amount of care and effort that she put into her initial proposal made her the obvious choice. She made the planning process extremely fun, especially for someone who was not particularly educated on flowers, and spent a great amount of time asking questions, truly getting to know us, and showing us options to ensure the arrangements she put together perfectly captured what we wanted for the day. The morning of wedding day was a blur, but one of my most vivid memories is Lily's team arriving to deliver my bouquet. It was beautiful and far exceeded my expectations, and was the perfect preview for the amazing work we'd get to see at our venue later that day. I can't imagine having worked with anyone but Lily Forest Design for our wedding day and highly recommend booking their team!

Working with Lily for our wedding was amazing. We went in to planning not knowing much about florals, but with a few pictures for inspiration, Lily was able to capture our vision perfectly. Throughout the process she was an excellent communicator, enthusiastic, and so talented. The bouquet she made for me and the bridesmaids left me speechless, and the centerpieces she designed for us were so elegant. I cannot recommend Lily enough.
