Beautiful and perfect!
Allison did such a wonderful job for our wedding. She is so easy going and always listened to our ideas and concerns. In the end she perfectly captured our vision and we got so many compliments on our centerpieces! The flowers turned out even more beautiful than we imagined. -

Jennifer Sent on 09/01/2018We worked with a lot of good vendors for our wedding, but Allison and her work stood out for its quality. The flowers were so impressive that our guests are still talking about them. Allison was incredibly professional, responsive, and clear and specific about what was and wasn't possible on the budget we set. She was open to my ideas and wanted to give me the look that I wanted for our wedding, but she was also willing to tell me when my ideas might not look good, or at least wouldn't look the way I thought they might. Allison and her team went above and beyond our expectations in several important ways: they were willing to repurpose all of the flowers from our centerpieces into smaller arrangements for brunch the following day (at the same venue), charging us only for the vases that our guests could use to take them home; they made my mom a small bouquet of her favorite flowers as an additional gift; after our wedding, when they realized they still had some fabric from my mom's dress that they had used to wrap my bouquet, they delivered it to us at our house; she bought a sample bouquet of flowers she hadn't worked with before that I thought I might like just to make sure I would like them; and finally, she made a full-scale mockup of the centerpiece for advance review at no extra charge. She also did a great job managing the mother of the bride—making her feel heard while letting my vision win the day. If you can find room in your budget for Allison's work, it is well worth it.

Susan Sent on 08/10/2016Allison McGeary was recommended by our wedding planner; I didn't have any prior experience with her company before. She is a wonderful listener and interpreter of what a bride wants. She patiently went through several iterations of what our daughter wanted and ended up showing a sample that was simply magnificent. It is a bit overwhelming to see how much flowers cost; that was probably the biggest shock for me. However, the end result was EXACTLY what they had promised. Her creativity was evident throughout the venue; all night long people commented on how beautiful the arrangements were. I would absolutely recommend Allison and her staff if you want the very best in floral displays for your wedding! -
User2303274 Sent on 09/06/2015Allison and her team are not only incredible at what they do, but they are truly wonderful people to work with! We were referred to Allison by a friend and after our first meeting with her, we knew that she would be able to capture exactly what we were looking for. In the months leading up to our wedding, Allison was easy to communicate with and make various arrangements. We decided to buy parts of our centerpieces for her to use and she was able to incorporate these elements beautifully! When it came to the little details, Allison was always extremely helpful with providing us her own opinion on what she has seen to work best and what might not work so well. I always felt so relaxed and in the best of hands when working with Allison and her team. After seeing our bouquets and the centerpieces at our reception venue, I was absolutely in awe! Everything was so beautiful and better than I could have imagined. Thank goodness for pictures and videos so that we can look back on the beauty any time we want! :) -
User1673228 Sent on 06/22/2014Allison McGeary is awesome and we highly recommend her and her team. My wife had some idea of the flowers she wanted but didn’t give Allison specific flowers to use. It was more about colors, size, pricing and style. Allison then put together beautiful and imaginative bouquets and centerpieces. She was fun to work with and her team was very responsive to our calls and emails. She understood what my wife was looking for, what was important to her and she added a lot to the conversations and final flower design.
One other note for engaged couples – as the groom, I don’t know much about flowers but I was surprised to learn how expensive flowers for a wedding can become. We talked to and priced out several florists before going with Allison. Allison was the first choice from the beginning but in other florists we found that many want to push you to do more and therefore spend more money. We had a budget in mind and wanted to work with our florist to figure out the best flowers within that number. Allison was really great about respecting that and helping my wife figure out what would work best.

Kim Sent on 10/20/2012Allison was the florist for our Christian ceremony, Indian ceremony and bollywood style reception. She worked very closely with us to give our event the exact feel that we wanted. She even ordered in special furniture and lanterns to give us the exact look that we wanted. We were blown away when we walked into our Indian tent and our reception, she totally transformed a boring tent and reception hall into a beautiful scene out of India! -
User2234874 Sent on 07/20/2015Allison and her team did the flowers for our wedding at Lemont on June 6th. From the bouquets to the centerpieces and candlelight, Allison and her team were able to turn my vision into reality and truly work truly transformed our room and made it into a more beautiful venue that I could have ever imagined! I would recommend Allison McGeary to anyone looking for a florist for an event. You will not be disappointed! -
User1909654 Sent on 11/07/2014Allison is very attentive to your needs and wants. She makes great recommendations but makes sure to not override what you truely want. She was great to work with, despite her busy schedule. Overall we got so many compliments on how beautiful the arrangements were at our wedding. My boquet was phenominal, so wonderful I even got it preserved to remember for a lifetime. -
User1341635 Sent on 09/22/2013Allison McGeary does nice work but is very expensive. She does have a nonchalant attitude and approach, especially when you visit her store. In the end, I was pleased, but frankly, I gave her all the design ideas that I gathered from the internet.
