    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!

    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!

    Best Charlotte Florist

    Karen and the LilyG team are the best of the best. I didn’t have much knowledge on florals, just had a few inspiration pictures to go off of and Karen took them and ran with it! She achieved the exact look we were going for and I was so happy with how everything turned out - the bouquets, centerpieces, chandelier greenery, and little floral touches everywhere else were so elegant and stunning. She worked with us to get the most bang from our buck and work within our budget by keeping the components that would achieve the biggest impact. Karen’s experience is unbeatable and she is so calm in the hectic world of weddings. I would recommend Lily Greenthumbs to anyone and everyone. Thank you for turning our venue into the garden sanctuary I wanted!

    - Lauren (bride)

    Blown Away!

    Working with Karen Greenoe on our wedding day was an absolute dream! Before booking Lily Greenthumb's for our wedding, we set up an initial consultation with Karen. She blew me away with how knowledgeable she was. Like many brides, I had a vague vision of what I wanted, but needed some help settling on a concrete plan. Karen suggested the most wonderful combinations and everything turned out absolutely beautifully! She showed up on our wedding day and came up to the bridal suite to say hi and show us the bouquets. She even brought me and my bridesmaids some water bottles with a Lily Greenthumb's koozie - so thoughtful of her! One of my main concerns was finding a bridal bouquet that paired well with my wedding dress, which had flowers on it. She created the perfect bouquet for me to carry - I teared up when she showed it to me! The florals she created for our ceremony space and reception were absolutely gorgeous. We couldn't have been happier! If you are looking for a knowledgeable, personable, floral designer who will work with your budget, look no further than Lily Greenthumb's! You won't be disappointed!

    Perfect Florals for Everyone

    My number one must have for my wedding was real flowers. My fiance wanted to make sure we found the best of the best and we did when we found Lily Greenthumbs. There is a reason they design the floral arrangements for the Carolina Panthers, but don't worry --- no matter how big or small your request is, you are treated like you are the Carolina Panthers when you are a client at Lily Greenthumbs. We absolutely loved our experience and felt it was top of the line customer service and product quality. The owner Karen delivered our bouquets herself and made sure everything for our ceremony and reception was set up and prepared ahead of schedule. We were thoroughly impressed and highly recommend Lily Greenthumbs.

    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!

    The best florist we could've asked for!

    Karen was the absolute best to work with - she is cheerful, kind, and warm and completely knows her way around flowers. Because of Lily Greenthumb, florals was the least stressful part of wedding planning - I knew everything would be absolutely perfect in their hands.
    I would HIGHLY recommend booking Lily Greenthumb as one of your first vendors, it made starting wedding planning much more exciting.

    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.

    The Best of the BEST!

    Lily Greenthumbs was truly amazing to work with. I had ideas of what I wanted - but Karen brought it all to life and made it better than I ever imagined. They worked with us on making sure we were getting the best 'bang for our buck' and truly were incredible to work with. They are so creative and very professional! She gave me the head table of my DREAMS! She was able to figure out how to have lush greenery hanging above us with lanterns! All of my guests were blown away and are STILL talking about it!!
    I would HIGHLY recommend this team to ANYONE looking for the best team ever!! They certainly will not disappoint!

    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!!

    Lily Greenthumb's was an excellent choice for my daughter's wedding. We worked with Christina Nail who was so insightful with ideas and guidance. Once we told her what we were thinking of she helped us execute and hit the target with excellence. When we look back at the pictures and see the flowers in the photos, they were absolutely gorgeous and they were worth every penny!! The flowers for outside ceremony were so big and colorful and made the greatest backdrop for the day! All the flowers were lovely and the colors and flower choice were so perfect!! Awesome!! Awesome!! We loved them and the guests commented on how great they looked inside at the reception and also at the outdoor ceremony. They were so pretty and lovely that I love to look back at the photos and not only do the smiling people standout but so do theses great wonderful flowers in each of the pictures. Loved Christina and loved what she executed on this great day!!

    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!

    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.

    For our wedding I wanted full bouquets, lots of modern candle light, and statement pieces in the reception. From start to finish Lily Greenthumbs impressed us. The initial consultation was a breeze and I knew we were in good hands; everything is clearly spelled out and she is well organized. Karen's recommendations helped us achieve the style we wanted for every single arrangement. She is very talented and the service is phenomenal. So, so happy with our choice and you will be too.

    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 ;-)

    Amazing! Breathtaking! Better than we could have ever imagined!

    Karen & her team are the best in the business! We had little knowledge of flowers or the decor we wanted but we know greenery and candles as we wanted a romantic feel. Karen absolutely knocked it out of the park and our ceremony space, bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and all the little details were incredible! The attention to detail and care by the Lily Greenthumb's team made all the difference and we are so thankful to have had them apart of our wedding day!

    Lily Greenthumb's is by far the best of the best when it comes to florists. Karen, the owner, is so personable and such a sweet lady. She also absolutely SAVED me for my bridal shoot! I completely forgot to order my bridal mock-up bouquet in time for my bridal shoot. I emailed her on a Sunday night and had my bridals the next afternoon. She put together a beautiful bouquet for me in moments notice so that I didn't have to go without one for my portraits. It meant so much to me! She also created the most fabulous arrangements for our wedding. I love flowers but had no clue exactly what I wanted. I only knew that I really liked peonies. Unfortunately, they were not in season when we got married. However, Karen showed me a flower that looked almost identical to it. It gave my bridal bouquet the exact look I was going for. She made the decision making process very easy! Lily Greenthumb's also had amazing centerpiece decorations (vases, votives, etc.) that matched my theme perfectly. I was so happy we were able to use them and extremely satisfied with how it all turned out. If you want a seamless experience with memorable florals, you found your girls!!
