Nichole was amazing to work with! I found her through Instagram and fell in love with her floral design. I reached out to her and shared some pictures of flowers and colors that I liked, but had absolutely no idea what I wanted. I told her that I didn't want my wedding to look like everyone else's and I wanted something unique - she came back to me with the most beautiful design concept, which was even better in person. I've never seen florals look like mine, and they brought my venue to life in the most stunning way. I would highly recommend using Nichole! -

Nainee J. Sent on 07/31/2024Xo Design Co. is amazing beyond words!
Nichole, from Xo Design Co., made our vision come to life! There are so many moving parts when planning a South Asian wedding, but one thing we did not need to worry about was florals and decor because of Nichole. From our Sangeet & Garba to our wedding mandap & reception, Nichole created a breathtakingly beautiful ambiance of everything we wanted and more.
Nichole was open to all communication/meetings to organize and make sure everything was executed perfectly. She even helped us with a custom seating chart display!
Our wedding would not have been the same without Nichole and Xo Design Co. If you are in search for a fun, creative, and visionary florist, LOOK NO FURTHER!
Nichole is THE best! -

I cannot express enough how wonderful Nichole is! Her talent is truly exceptional, and she brings a level of genuineness and professionalism that is unmatched. Nichole not only brought our vision to life but made it so uniquely original that our wedding felt unlike any other. When you choose XO Design, you're not just paying for florals; you're investing in Nichole's professional services and her remarkable eye for detail. Choosing XO Design to design our wedding was one of the best decisions we made--we have no regrets! -

I literally cried when I saw my bouquet. I knew the moment we had our consultation with Nichole that she was who I wanted to do my flowers for our wedding. Everything was absolutely amazing and exactly how I envisioned.
She also repurposed flowers and did flowers for our welcome party too which looked great. She and her team drove out to the Chicago suburbs two days in a row which we so appreciated. Definitely go with Xo!! -

Magical day!
Xo design truly made all of our dreams come true for our special day. Nichole is the most genuine, easy, and fun person to work with. From the very start she called me to get an idea of my vision and from the very first time we talked to the day of the wedding she was easy to contact, flexible with my ideas, and has a true art for making my ideas come to life. I can easily say the floral for my wedding day was ABOVE everything I imagined in my head. She listened to us, made adjustments accordingly, was flexible with our budget, and made us feel like we weren't just another couple getting married. She was made to do this! The entire team worked so hard to set everything up, tear down, and went above and beyond to make our space so beautiful. I would recommend Xo design over and over again! -

A dream from start to finish
To say I'm obsessed with Nichole and her work is an understatement.
I started following XO before my husband and I were even engaged, and when it finally came time to book our florist, I knew right away who I wanted to reach out to. From the first phone call up until the day of, Nichole not only shared her creative expertise with us, but truly made it feel like a collaboration and even despite all the busssiness that comes with being a wedding vendor, she still gave us the attention and care you would get if you were her only event that year.
Nichole and her team make the effort to understand you and your partner, and they deliver a product that feels so genuine to you. Every aspect that XO had their hands on had us saying "wow this is so us...this is so me". I chose to opt out of any mock ups because I trusted them so much, and when Nichole came to give me my bouquet in the bridal suite, it was so beautiful I bursted into tears. Nichole and the entire XO team is so talented, I will continue to recommend them and sing the highest praises to any newly engaged couple looking for their florist/decor vendor! -

Breathtakingly Beautiful
One look at XO Designs Instagram page and we knew Nichole and her team were the ones we wanted for our wedding. Nichole is a beautiful person, everything we discussed upon our initial conversation was brought to light on our wedding day, she truly delivered magic. Her creativity in building the floral assortments were simply stunning, our guests were in awe of the beauty. All of the flowers took my breath away, I will forever be daydreaming about them. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to be with us on our wedding day, they were all very professional and kind. We can’t recommend Nichole and XO Designs enough, they truly made our day magical -

Unbelievable floral and service
Working with Nichole was absolutely amazing. She was extremely helpful in helping me narrow down my vision and was so patient and understanding during the planning process. She did an excellent job working with me to bring out my vision as I had a hard time explaining what I was envisioning for my big day. She showed her expertise and knowledge in design by being honest with me about which elements would go well together and what would look good in my space, which I found extremely helpful because I am not the best at design.
I could never have imagined how AMAZING my florals would be the day of. I recieved endless comments about how beautiful the florals and decor were and I am so thankful I trusted Nichole to execute my vision. She truley exceeded my expectations and and is incredibly talented at what she does. My florals were one of my favorite part of my wedding day and they were a perfect representation of myself and my husbands style.
XO design made the day so easy for us and worked so hard during set up and tear down. Nichole was even there after our wedding cleaning up and we were just amazed at her dedication and professionalism throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend using there services! -

Perfection
I cannot praise Nichole and her team at Xo Design enough; they are absolutely phenomenal! Where do I even begin? They are, without a doubt, the best in the business.
From the very start, their responsiveness and creativity set them apart. Nichole and her team not only listened to our vision but elevated it to a whole new level. They took our ideas and brought them to life in ways we couldn't have imagined. It's truly magical to see your dreams materialize before your eyes, and Xo Design made that happen for us.
What truly stands out is their unwavering support. When the wedding planning stress began to creep in, they were there, calming our nerves and finding solutions to every challenge that arose. They have an incredible ability to pivot as needed, ensuring that everything goes off without a hitch. Additionally, they consistently went above and beyond. Nichole met with us at our event space multiple times, brainstorming and providing invaluable information. This helped us coordinate seamlessly with other vendors, ensuring that every detail flowed effortlessly.
One thing I'd like to highlight is their recommendations. You can wholeheartedly trust them when they suggest something. Their expertise and experience shine through in every piece of advice they offer. It's evident that they genuinely care about making your day as special as it can be.
I couldn't recommend Nichole and the Xo Design team more highly. They are a dream to work with and truly made our wedding day extraordinary. If you want a stress-free, creative, and magical wedding experience, Xo Design is the way to go. Five stars doesn't seem like enough to express our gratitude for their outstanding work! -

Alyssa K. Sent on 07/31/2023Nichole and her team wield flowers like wands to make magic.
I discovered Nichole and her team through our wedding planner who thought we'd be a perfect match and she was spot on! I adored working with Nichole. Her ability to conceptualize ideas and turn them into art with flowers is unparalleled. Nichole made coordinating on the design a breeze and brought so many ideas to the table to enhance our vision. On the day of, her team was incredible and made sure everything was executed flawlessly.
If you want a florist and event designer in one, Nichole is your woman. I avoided having to work with three other vendors to source certain design elements because Nichole focuses on offering a complete design experience in conjunction with the flowers. I am so glad I worked with her and would hire her again for any event in the area. -

Sara A. Sent on 01/20/2023XO Design Co.’s signature use of white space is exquisite, artful, and distinct, providing a dazzling sense of fluidity and movement
We had the pleasure of working with Nichole at XO Design Co. for our wedding and were simply blown away by the result. We envisioned something simple, romantic, and imaginative that would complement the ambiance of our venue and the spirit of our union - and boy did she deliver. With her keen attention to detail, she brought our vision to life in ways that we hadn't even imagined. Her signature use of white space is exquisite, artful, and distinct, providing a dazzling sense of fluidity and movement. Our guests can't stop raving about the floral decor. Nichole is deeply devoted to her craft, which is made clear throughout every stage of her process, from the initial consultation call to the execution. The enthusiasm and passion she puts into every aspect of her work are palpable. We respected her approach, perspective, and counsel. She recognizes and honors your investment and ensures that each element of her design plan has a purpose, or in her words (which resonated with us) that each piece has a "why". If you are looking for a florist for your special event, XO Design Co. should be your top choice. Hire Nichole and trust her process. -

Kimberly Sent on 06/18/2018I am so thankful to have been able to work with Nichole and her team for my wedding. Starting from the initial consultation to the day of the wedding, Nichole was able to take my vision and brought it to life. I remember sitting down with Nichole during the initial consultation and I told her I knew absolutely nothing about flowers. Within an hour, she was able to create a beautiful design and it was truly better than anything I could have ever imagined. It was so easy to communicate with Nichole throughout the entire wedding planning process. It was also so helpful that her and her team came back to the venue at the end of the reception to pick up decorations that were rented. This allowed our guests to enjoy the night and not worry about any sort of clean up.I highly recommend Nichole and her team to anyone who is looking to have their dream wedding become a reality.

Nichole and her team are astonishingly talented designers. They truly took our breath away with what they constructed for our wedding day and made our space into the exact vision that we had discussed throughout our planning with Nichole. We had a home wedding and from the very first time we met Nichole, she knew exactly what needed to be done to transform the space into this ethereal, romantic, floralscape that truly made our guests feel as if they were transported to a secret fairytale garden for our wedding. We are so thankful for everything Nichole and her team created for our big day and will definitely call on her in the future for any design needs we have in the future! -

Nicole M. Sent on 08/18/2022Absolutely Blown Away!
I am still in awe and absolutely blown away by the work Nichole and her team at Xo Design put together for our wedding! From the initial meeting I had with Nichole to discuss my fiancé and I's wedding, I knew we had to work with her- there was no doubt in my mind! She already had so many ideas come to life in our first meeting, and from Day 1, through our wedding day, and beyond she has been such a JOY to work with! She was there for me through all the questions I had (big or small), was a text/phone call away whenever I needed to ask her something, professional, joyful, incredibly talented, kindhearted- the list goes on!
There is one story that sticks out that speaks volumes about Nichole and the Xo team that I will never forget, it shows just how genuine they all are. On the instagram account for Xo, they had posted a photo and had said, "comment your favorite flower below". I wrote my favorite floral in the caption and posted it and on my wedding day the team showed up to deliver my bouquet and my bridesmaids, and in the bouquet were TULIPS! They said how they saw my comment on their instagram and wanted to incorporate my favorite flower in the bouquets- I mean COME ON! How special?! That to me will always be something I remember about Xo, they care SO MUCH and pay attention to every last detail-even when you don't think they are looking
Nichole and her team will without a doubt bring your floral and decor dreams to life! Absolute visionaries! Everyone at Xo Design went above and beyond in order to help bring my fiancé and I's wedding day to life. Nichole and her team will ALWAYS have a place in my heart- not only were they amazing to work with, but overall SUCH great people. They didn't make you feel like 'just a client', they made you feel like a FRIEND and to have that was so, so special. I cannot not speak highly enough of Nichole and the team at Xo. We were so fortunate to be able to work with Nichole and the team at Xo- thank you all again for what you did to make our day so memorable and special! -

Literal Perfection!!!
Xo Design Co is the best! Nichole and her team completely blew us away with their creative talent for our wedding in Chicago at the Rookery. Nichole help bring elegance and enchantment to our vision. On our wedding day, when we saw our space for the first time, we were overwhelmed by her artistry. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the florals! Nichole’s creativity is incredible; she was able to brilliantly move and reuse florals when our space flipped from ceremony to reception. She was organized, professional, respectful of our budget, and was an utter delight to work with from start to finish. We love Nichole and her team at Xo Design Co and would absolutely recommend them for any event! -

Last minute, we planned a courthouse wedding (with a full celebration planned next year) and I reached out to Nichole to build a beautiful bouquet and boutonniere set for our intimate, secret elopement. Right away, she was responsive, friendly and SO creative. I'm not well versed in flowers and or color (normally I wear black on black on black) so I shared with Nichole our outfits and let her express her creative self! The end result was gorgeous and perfect for our day. Beyond the work, Nichole is so friendly and makes you feel like you're her only client - when I know she's one busy lady (how could she not be - she's TALENTED!). Thank you to the XO team for making our last minute special day extra special. -

A True Dream to Work With
Where do I start with this incredible company? I'll start with the incomparably talented owner, Nichole. I met Nichole in February of 2020 and immediately I knew that she was the person we needed to bring our wedding version to life.
Leading up to the wedding, chaos was happening in the world. Nichole handled this SO gracefully and any time I had questions come up, she was willing to chat with me even with her incredibly busy schedule.
On the day of the wedding, my breath was taken away. I am not being exaggerative when I say she created the most stunning floral and décor I have ever seen, and how lucky I feel that it was for my own wedding! Her vision and ability to execute that vision are unmatched.
Not only is Nichole an incredible person, but she is immensely talented with such a creative eye and she cares so deeply. Please do yourself a favor and hire this incredible team to make your wedding dreams come to life! -

Michaela C. Sent on 05/24/2022Incredible, supportive, DREAM TEAM
I met Nichole mid 2019 and to say it was meant to be...well it was meant to be. We clicked and bonded over our shared love for dried florals, similar aesthetics and all around good vibes. From that first meeting I knew I could trust her to use her floral and decor magic to create the wedding of my dreams. I specifically remember telling her, "I don't care what flowers you use, I trust you". After a whirlwind of postponements in 2020, Nichole was there and checked in every step of the way. She was the most accommodating, supportive and one of the biggest hype person we had backing us. I knew I needed her, no matter the number of changes we had to make to get to the wedding date. Her florals and decor were BEYOND BEAUTIFUL. My husband and I were in literal shock during our room reveal. It 1000% exceeded our expectations and whatever mock design we initially came up with. People always say the guests don't really care about the little details... well when done right they absolutely do, because the details and decor from our wedding are still talked about to this day!
Above and beyond is what you get with Nichole and her team. She is immensely talented, has such a creative eye and is just a good person who cares. I am so glad I met her and will always think of Xo Design anytime we look at photos from our wedding day. Xx -

Nichole was a dream to work with for our wedding. She was referred by a family friend and we instantly hit it off on our introductory phone call. Nichole is so friendly, accommodating, creative, detail oriented, and wants to bring your vision to life. We rescheduled our wedding due to Covid and Nichole was extremely accommodating in shifting dates and times with us up until the day of the wedding. She attended our walk through, was always responsive via text or email, and word endlessly with us to make our vision work with our budget. Her work is stunning and we were blown away with the gorgeous arrangements she put together on our day of. Without a doubt, hire Nichole, you will not regret it. -

Trust the expert, Nichole
Right off the bat from just an introduction call, Nichole’s bright and warm personality shined through and I was sold. It was critical during my process that I surrounded myself with vendors that I could trust and genuinely wanted to be around. She is not only kind but extremely talented and an expert at her craft. I booked her immediately for her day-of coordinating services and it was one of the best decisions for our wedding.
When I think back to the day of, I was able to be so present and enjoy every minute with my husband, and family and I owe this stress-free mentality to the fact that Nichole was running around coordinating ALL things. After hosting a lot of parties for friends and or family, typically throughout the event the host anxiety creeps in, “Is everyone fed? Is everyone comfortable? Do I need more ice?”... that list goes on and on. Nichole so graciously took over responsibility as the host and was tuned into all the answers to these questions.
My bustle broke right before our first dance and guess who was there to fix it? Both Nichole and her assistant Mina jumped in and played seamstress. They escorted guests to where they needed to go, answered the questions from the wandering guests, gave order to the rehearsal walk-through. At one point when my now husband and I did our introductory walk-in day of, I saw Nichole politely whisper to a tall guest in the front to shift slightly so that the shorter guests in the back could see. The details, she just sees it all! She was completely in tuned to every social que and all the coordination details. OH and did I mention she's insanely creatively gifted too? The experience was perfect. I am forever grateful for Nichole and if I have any piece of advice to newlyweds out there, book Nichole now. You will be able to enjoy every minute of your event while Nichole executes flawlessly.
