  Absolutely Fantastic!

  I had the pleasure of working with Nancy for my wedding recently, in early August 2021. From the moment I contacted Nancy online to the follow-up after the wedding, everything was wonderful!
  
  Personally, I love flowers yet I can’t speak to them nor do I really know what is what - I simply think they all look nice! Ha! Therefore, Nancy utilized her expertise and artistry to create exactly what I was looking for without me really even having to explain much! It was such a great feeling to work with someone who is not only kind, honest and caring yet very patient, understanding and efficient!
  
  Additionally, I informed Nancy straight out of the gate that I didn’t want to spend a fortune on flowers, as the wedding itself (also having been postponed a year!) was costly enough. She didn’t impose any minimum spend requirements like most florists and couldn’t have been more understanding! Initially, one of the elements I really appreciated was her responsiveness and upfront price quotes. This was hard to find with other florists I had contacted.
  
  I highly recommend Nancy for any event and look forward to working with her in the future! She is the best!!!

  Married 9/14/19

  It was an absolute pleasure working with Nancy! Weddings can be extremely stressful, but she instantly put us at ease and was extremely knowledgeable. She was not only accommodating when it came to our budget, but also made us feel like her number one priority. We would absolutely work with Nancy again and highly recommend her!

  Amazing Chicago florist!

  I had an amazing experience working with Nancy. She was responsive, flexible and truly cared about our wedding and making it perfect. She is SO extremely knowledgable about flowers and made the most beautiful bouquets and boutonnieres for us. She was so understanding and helped us make the best decisions to stay within our budget. I definitely recommend Nancy for any of your floral needs!

  Extraordinary

  Nancy was the consummate professional. I had an idea, but she helped me cultivate a true vision. Her knowledge base is extensive, and she delivers grace and beauty to everything she touches!

  Easy to work with!

  Nancy did such a great job with the flowers for my small destination wedding. I was anxious about arranging all the details for our Chicago wedding while living in Los Angeles, but Nancy was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to emails. My husband and I are both foodies and I wanted that incorporated into our flowers - Nancy made that happen. She worked kale, rosemary and lavender into our arrangements with out making them look over the top. She was also able to create beautiful floral pieces to accompany a family heirloom headpiece. I enjoyed working with Nancy and highly recommend!

  We loved working with Nancy! Our flowers and table settings were beautiful. She helped make a unique and special room even more stunning. Nancy made the whole planning process very smooth. She was quickly responsive and accommodated all of our needs (including working within our budget and making multiple deliveries for personal flowers). It was a great experience and I definitely recommend working with her!

  Nancy was amazing to work with! Not only is she completely talented and creative, she was one of the friendliest/most kind people we worked with throughout the entire wedding planning process. When i first walked into Nancy’s cute little corner floral shop about 5 months ago, i had absolutely no “vision” for my flowers and i was totally overwhelmed. She Helped calm my nerves and together we worked out a color pallet that would look great with my colors. Nancy exceeded my expectations and everything she created for our special day was BEYOND perfect.

  Nancy and her team designed and created the floral arrangements for our wedding at the Hotel Allegro. They did a beautiful job! I did not have a specific vision for our wedding, I only knew that I wanted lots of color and texture. Nancy was able to take this information and run with it. She is extremely knowledgeable and has excellent experience (her website speaks for iteself). She was very communicative and easy to get a hold of- working closely with me as well as the hotel wedding coordinator. She replied promptly to all emails and provided advice whenever I needed it. The floral arrangements they delivered on the day of the wedding exceeded all expectations. The bouquets, boutonnieres and table arrangements coordinated with each other without being too precious and the eucalyptus garland the team created for the head table was a tasteful and unique touch. Our guests complimented the arrangements right away and three months after the wedding, we are still receiving positive feedback. Nancy, thank you for everything. I truly enjoyed the experience and hope for an opportunity to work together again in the future.

  Nancy Krause did the flowers for our wedding and we loved them! Everything that she did (from our first meeting to the flowers on the day of) was professional and thoughtful. She never pushed us to spend more than we wanted or to spend money just for the sake of it, and she helped us combine fresh flowers with candles, lanterns, etc, to make our reception site beautiful! She was always available for questions and even came out to the reception site with us to help us decide if we needed additional flowers or lighting (which we didn't, and she did not push us to buy them). On the wedding day, she was available and prompt, she delivered all of the flowers for the wedding party to our hotel (and helped make sure bouquets and boutonnieres were perfect!) before setting up our flowers at the reception site. Everything was beautiful, and Nancy was there for us from start to finish. Our favorite wedding vendor!

  Nancy was by far one of my favorite wedding vendors! I had a few meetings lined up to meet with other florists, and after my mom and I met with her, I cancelled all my other appointments because I knew immediately she was who I wanted to work with. She is more than just a florist as she helped me shape what color linens & napkins would look best with the kind of flowers I wanted. She is so incredibly creative and she is a true artist (if you don't believe me, walk past her Lincoln Park store front and see for yourself). The day of my wedding, when she walked in with the bouquets, I wanted to cry out of sheer happiness. My bouquet & my bridesmaids bouquets were even better than I could have ever imagined. Before our ceremony, I got to take a walk through our reception room, and I was again, blown away by the attention to detail. She was so calm and helpful during the entire process and I can't say thank you enough to the woman who brought my wedding vision to life!

  After doing some research online, I came across Nancy Krause Floral. From our initial contact via email, I knew she was the one I wanted to work with. I was planning my wedding from Austin and would not have the chance to meet with her in person prior to our reception. Nancy was more than accommodating and helped me work through my scattered ideas over the phone and create a vision for floral arrangements and candles that fit perfectly with the look I was going for at our reception. When I arrived at our reception at the Floating World Gallery, I was amazed at how beautiful the flowers looked and Nancy was still hard at work making sure everything was perfect. The flowers and candles looked lovely in the gold vases and votives. It was just beautiful and I spent my last few days in Chicago after the reception staring at my flowers. Thank you, Nancy. You are a true artist!

  I lived right down the street from this adorable flower shop and thought it was definitely worth a shot for my wedding bouquet. My wedding was very small and it was a military wedding so we were on a very tight budget. The owner was extremely helpful at bringing my dream bouquet to life within my budget and very honest about the cost of different items. I was so grateful to have a florist who was willing to be that open about what would look best but still fit my dream and also stay in my budget. Highly recommend!
