    We are so very happy with the service and quality that we received from Lily Greenthumbs. We met with Karen early on and talked logistics. I didn't want too many flowers, just an elegant and romantic look. After the initial meeting, I met with Christina and the process was incredibly easy. They are true professionals and know exactly what they are doing!

    Karen and her team are amazing! They were so helpful, responsive and brought our (well, my...the husband didn't really care too much about the flowers!) to life. They were prompt, professional, and just went the extra mile at every step (provided napkins & reminders to dry the stems, water bottles in Lily Greenthumb's coozies, etc.) I wish my bouquet could've lasted forever!

    Lily Greenthumbs was amazing to work with. I changed my mind a million times but Karen never once got frustrated with me. She helped me by making good suggestions and offering ways to keep the costs down. I absolutely loved my flowers for the ceremony and got so many compliments on how beautiful the ceremony site looked. Everything was perfect.

    Lily Greenthumb's was so easy to work with! I know nothing about flowers and they made everything so simple! We discussed what we envisioned for our wedding day and we were sent a contract quickly. The initial proposal was a little over our budget, but Karen responded quickly and worked to get what we would like within our budget. The flowers were beautiful! Exactly what I wanted!

    For our April 30th wedding, I went into my initial appointment with a scattered brain and no real idea of what I was hoping for with my flowers. Lily Greenthumbs asked all the right questions, guiding me to realize what I truly wanted for my wedding flowers, when keeping in mind my budget. They took care of every detail, leaving me to not worry about a thing!

    The day of our wedding, I was blown away when I saw my flowers and my bridesmaid flowers for the first time. They were more perfect than I ever could have imagined! Traditional with a bit of a modern and a big wow factor as I had hoped! There were even adorable napkins there to remind us to wipe the water before walking down the aisle.

    When we reached our reception, the tables were pristine. Not a detail overlooked!

    I would refer any couple to use Lily Greenthumb if you are looking for stunning flowers, wonderful customer service, and memories to last a lifetime!

    Amazing to work with!

    We used Lily Greenthumbs for our wedding and I was so impressed and happy with our flowers and decor! Karen sat down with me virtually to do a very thorough and in depth consultation at the start and helped me with creating and vocalizing my floral, centerpiece and ceremony vision. She then checked in regularly throughout the planning process to ensure everything was running smoothly and helped me feel at ease during my planning process. She is kind, thoughtful and creative and her floral design is impeccable! The team was punctual on the wedding day and truly did such a beautiful job! I highly recommend working with them for your wedding!

    First of all, Kristin from Lily Greenthumbs is amazingly talented. I never thought I'd cry over my bouquet and I certainly did! Not to mention she drove from Charlotte to Wilmington to be with me on my day. Love everything she creates and I can't stop looking at the pics. Highly recommend!!!

    Stunningly beautiful and so fun to work with!

    Working with Karen with Lily Greenthumb’s was so much fun! She understood exactly what my husband and I were envisioning and what she delivered was much more perfect then we could have ever expected! On top of that, the team was SO wonderful setting up on the day of the wedding. We experienced heavy thunderstorms on our wedding day and had to move to our Plan B, which required a lot more work for the vendor team. Karen and team worked tirelessly to ensure our ceremony and reception were more than perfect. I highly recommend Lily Greenthumb’s and am so incredibly happy with our flowers and décor from our big day.

    Lily Greenthumb did an AMAZING job on my wedding bouquet and the flowers for my bridesmaids! I was not sure what I wanted, except that I wanted my bridesmaids to carry lanterns. Karen and her staff took that image to the next level and produce an amazing bouquet for me and beautiful flowers to surround the lanterns. Karen was amazing throughout the whole process - I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful and flowers!

    Thank you so much for your hard work and attention to detail!

    Wonderful Florals and Design!

    Karen and her team did an outstanding job with the flowers and décor at our wedding! The weather was a little iffy on the day of the wedding and they made all the right decisions to ensure the arrangements looked their absolute best for the ceremony and reception. Karen brought up my bouquet and the bridesmaid arrangements to the bridal suite and they were all so beautiful! She even made flower wands for the flower girls as a last-minute request and they looked amazing! The flowers and décor for the ceremony were incredible. When we did the room reveal at the reception, the entire room took our breath away. The floral arrangements combined with the candle light all looked incredible and we were speechless! Karen and her team were fabulous throughout the planning process and really did a fantastic job! Thank you all so much!

    How do I even begin? I had such a hard time finding a florist. I was planning my Charlotte Wedding from college in Illinois and emailed 8 different vendors. After a long correspondence with another vendor, who shall remain nameless, and resulted a quote wayy above what I wanted I found Karen at Lilly Greentthumbs.

    She was amazing. Even though I was far behind schedule and needed some flexibility she made sure I got everything I needed. I didnt need to spell it out for her either. I sent her some images of things I liked and told her to go to town. It was a little hard for me to picture in my head what she described but I am so happy I trusted her.

    In my wedding I wanted to make 1000 paper cranes to get a wish for my new husband. Part of this meant I wanted cranes in my flowers. In our meeting (only a month before the actual day) I told her this and she was so happy to incorporate what I wanted. I just had to drop off some little crafts on the wedding week and she put them in the flowers for me. I even emailed her for an extra arrangement for my wedding arch FOUR DAYS BEFORE THE WEDDING. I was so stressed about everything, but flowers were definitely not one of them because Karen made sure that everything was set up perfectly.

    As far as budget, Karen was so kind and thoughtful about it. I had to be a little flexible, but for a reasonable amount I got the wedding flowers of my dreams. My wedding planner's assistant (who didnt say much and probably sees a wedding every week) said that my flowers were the best she had ever seen... and they were by no means extravagant. If you want flowers that will be amazing, well priced, perfectly organized, and personally designed then go with Lily Greenthumbs.

    Floral Dream!

    Karen and the Lily Greenthumbs team were absolutely amazing. We could not sing their praises enough nor recommend them even higher to anyone that will listen. Any vision we had for our wedding day was not only met but exceeded. They are professional, passionate, creative, and have a true gift for ensuring your vision comes to life. The team created a flawless color scheme with a dazzling array of flowers and arrangements that set the most spectacular background to our event. However, the real main event was certainly the hanging floral and disco ball chandelier that showcased Karen’s creativity and ability to execute on any vision for your big day. Additionally, for all those like us who are less than floral experts, we cannot highlight how at ease we felt with Karen’s expert guidance, bubbly and enthusiastic personality, and the ability to translate our vision into reality. If you are looking for a florist for any event, Lily Greenthumbs should be at the top of your list!

    Karen and her team are amazing! They took my images inspirations from Pinterest and friend's weddings and make them perfect to match my wedding and my style. The email communication was wonderful and the face-to-face meeting was more than I could have asked for. They had images of their bouquets and the flowers they would use for me. And when it came down to making flowers a reality they more than delivered! Thank you for making the flowers at my wedding a dream come true!

    I absolutely LOVE flowers, so for me choosing my bouquet and ceremony flowers was one of the hardest tasks of planning a wedding, I could not narrow down all the flowers I love into one cohesive arrangement. Karen and her store SOLVED my problem instantly by helping me narrow down the arrangements by colors, then specific flowers. THe result was my dream bouquet filled with the most beautiful peonies, hydrangeas, gardenias and sweet peas. The actual product was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Lily Greenthumbs was incredibly flexible, I bet we emailed 50 times changing small details back and forth. Each time she quickly prepared a new invoice with an updated price so I would know exactly where I stood in terms of pricing. Flowers are always pretty, but Lily Greenthumb flowers are GORGEOUS and classic and are arranged in a way that makes you never want to put down your bouquet.

    Lily Greenthumb's surpassed all of my expectations for flowers! Karen was amazing to work with. My mom and I met first met with Karen for a consultation and she immediately made us feel comfortable and welcomed. Throughout the whole process she was responsive, helpful and just an overall joy! All of the flowers were absolutely beautiful! My bouquet was my favorite! The flowers truly transformed the church and wedding venue into a stunning space. I would recommend Lily Greenthumb's for any of your floral needs!!

    I first noticed Lily Greenthumbs as I passed their first location in Matthews 2-3 times a day driving my son to and from school 6 years. Every time I passed their tiny little shop I thought to myself that someday I would love to order flowers from them. Well that day was last Saturday when they decorated the church and reception venue for my daughters wedding. Karen was extremely patient as she educated us on flowers and what worked and what didn't work. She was also very accommodating with my daughters changing mind. Karen also listened to what my daughter wanted, nothing too fancy and nothing too basic. Needless to say Karen and her team completed the wedding day vision with stunning arrangements, bouquets, aisle markers and boutonnières made with brass bullet casings. Two moves later, the business has a new home for their talent and services. I give Lily Greenthumbs 12 stars.

    Working with Karen at Lily Greenthumb was awesome. All she had to do was show me different types of flowers and she came up with the idea for my bouquet. I was so pleased with it and they were beautiful! I didn't think flowers really made a difference but it made everything more elegant. She was very accommodating in staying within my budget and delivering the most beautiful flowers.

    Karen was absolutely amazing to work with from day one! I had no idea what I really wanted other than pretty flowers and she brought my vision to life!!! My bridal bouquet and bridesmaids bouquets were unbelievable and served as center pieces at the reception. Definitely one of our favorite vendors to work with!!!!!

    The most beautiful flowers we've ever seen! We hired Lily Greenthumbs for our wedding day at the Ballantyne Hotel in June 2017 and we were blown away by their flowers! They were a preferred vendor and recommended by our venue and also highly rated on Wedding Wire. The products and service are not cheap, but you truly get what you paid for - we couldn't believe how big, beautiful, and gorgeous all of our flowers were to make our special day spectacular. We got all of our centerpieces, decorative flowers, draping tie backs, parents and wedding party flowers and my bouquet with Lily Greenthumbs, and every single piece was clearly carefully designed and created with our vision in mind and were just breathtakingly gorgeous.
    I really apprecaited the consultations both on the phone and in person, for I am not knowledgeable in flower types, etc. Christina really worked with me to talk through my vision and helped make it a reality. When we saw our flowers on wedding day we were speechless and so pleased. Flowers are an expensive part of the day, but they make all the difference in beautifying your space (if they're created by Lily Greenthumbs, of course ;-)
