    This is what my cousin received...
    Michelle S.

    I ordered online and selected/paid an extra $15 to get the deluxe version of the arrangement. What my cousin received was less spectacular than the regular arrangement pictured much less than the deluxe version. I emailed them pictures comparing what I ordered versus what was received....I asked them to suggest some remedy or partial refund.....to make this right. Never got a response. I then contacted them directly through the "Contact Us" page on their website....never got a response. A picture is worth a thousand words....remember I paid extra to get better than their picture. Update: After posting the Yelp review they immediately reached out and apologized and offered me a 20% refund and asked me to update the review.

    The thing delivered to the funeral home!  Not one flower on it! (My brother added the fishing net to try and detract from the fish)

    I know this a little lengthy but is worth the read! Be very cautious when placing a phone order with this business. Ask to get something in writing in an email. Unfortunately I learned this lesson too late and lost in arbitration with my credit card company because I didn't have it in writing when ordering a fish made out of flowers for my brother's long-time fishing buddy and family friend that had passed from cancer. The thing delivered to the funeral home didn't have a single flower on it! See attached picture below. If they didn't want to or couldn't make a fish made out of flowers as asked they could of simply said so. We found out they couldn't too late. I called and spoke to and dealt with John, the owner, throughout the process. I asked if he could make a fish made out of flowers and he said he could. He quoted me a total price of $300 including tax and delivery yet without notification he charged my card $376. My brother was ok with the additional cost as he just wanted to do something special for his fishing buddy of over 30 years. Unfortunately when he attended the funeral and saw what they had delivered he was so upset and embarrassed. Since we knew the family from childhood they actually tried to make him feel better about the "fish" as they knew what he tried to do. I contacted John the owner and explained this is not what I ordered and asked for a full refund. John/Lake Forest Flowers is trying to say that I actually called and ordered a fish "made out of natural materials". That is not what I ordered nor would of even thought of before hearing them use it as an excuse! Seriously why do you call a florist but normally to order flowers! Unfortunately we entrusted them with a very important and special order for our family. Without answering me he credited my account $150 thinking we would be ok with that even though we asked for a full refund. More attempts were made to talk/contact John without any responses. My brother and I even went to the business to try and talk to John but were given the runaround saying" he wasn't there and wasn't answering his phone". In the end I'm posting this review to warn others to beware of this business especially if you are dealing with John (the owner). At this point it's not about getting our money back. Lake Forest Flowers does not stand behind their work and will not do the right thing when given the opportunity.

From the small details, to the overall pictures - Polly really does it all! Polly is incredible to work with from talking through your budget and needs and finding ways to bring your vision to life. Her and her team go above and beyond to make sure that all of the details are taken care of, and are always on time if not early. While it's super easy to just go into a grocery store to purchase floral, there is nothing like the quality and care that goes into the ones you get from a small local business. If you're looking for a florist for any special occasion or just want to share the love with someone, Polly's is the place to go!

I wanted to support a small business, and I couldn't have been happier with the plant/flowers that Polly created for me. In placing my order with Polly, the owner, she questioned what I was looking for and my budget, and then came up with suggestions and told me about the individual plants she thought would work well. Then Polly sent me a picture of the plants/flowers she sent!!! My friend loved them!

This is my first visit to Mary's and they've got some great flowers here! Lots of options I haven't seen shopping around the last few years at other places. We got some begonias that are stunning and holding up fantastic so far. We picked up a tropical bush as well, which Mary herself did advise me would likely not survive the winter. She did give me some advice on how to winterize it if I want to try and bring it inside, she seems knowledgeable and it's pretty cool that she offers plants like these. I always grab some veggies and herbs as well and she delivered on that with a few different herbs I'm excited to try. Boxwood basil is new to me but that's exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. I do wish she had more variety of veggies available, I might have missed the boat on that. I did get a nice heirloom tomato plant, she had these in a back lot. It's a bit hard to get navigate back there and it's not a flat path so be prepared. To sum up, this is a smaller operation than some local competitors but that plant enthusiast charm goes a long way. I'd definitely recommend it for flowers, they've also got lots of cute outdoor decorations. It's a great spot to find something unique too! It COULD use some layout improvements and I found some things unlabeled as I was perusing. I'd say it's definitely worth checking out for either a seasoned gardener or a first timer!

It took a 5 minute phone call to describe the set up and color suggestions. They said they would deliver them the morning of the event to Birchwood directly, which was one thing off my plate. Sold. The flowers themselves were so pretty! We left the party with our arms full of gifts and umbrellas thanks to a very rainy night. When I called Birchwood the next morning to see if i could pick up the flowers to enjoy them a few more days they said they had disposed of them. This was super disappointing because the flowers were really beautiful, but of course this was no fault of ArtQuest. They were also pretty expensive, but that seems to be the case with most beautiful flowers these days. I appreciated ArtQuest making our bday dinner table extra pretty and plan to use them again for another event I have coming up in a few weeks!
