I crawled through the Internet and found Sylvia's Flowers. I am in California and wanted to send an arrangement to my sister-in-law at her new job in Wheeling, IL. I was doing all this on a weekend, for delivery on Monday. I did part of the order on line and on the phone. The staff (Meredith, Sue, Alexa) and manager Kathryn were terrific, helpful & very professional.!! The arrangement arrived on time, even with my lengthy message, & was fabulous! They are wonderful to work with....take your floral needs to them. !!

Initially I met with a few florists recommended by our venue, but Sylvia's beat them all by far. I consulted with Rich for my 10/08/11 wedding, and it was wonderful. I brought my "inspiration" pictures and he was off! He had awesome ideas. Some things I was unsure of on paper, but I trusted him completely. In addition to bridal party flowers, Sylvia's provided a willow branch cake ring and black arch covered in willow branchs, lights, flowers and greenery. In our outdoor setting it looked AMAZING! Sylvia's prices were extr... read more

Received this bouquet as a birthday surprise from family who now lives out of town. While the flowers were beautiful, the arrangement could have been better. Placed in a short squat vase that didn't really support them, the color choices of orange roses, yellow lilies and red carnations, as well as the multicolor glass vase and HBD ribbons gave the overall arrangement a definite circus or clown-like vibe vs a celebration. As Sylvia's has been as our family's preferred local florist for decades, my daughter placed the order o... read more

Does the business have good flowers? Yes. What I'm writing about is the fact that they do not accept Apple Pay which is a star off. Not only do they not accept Apple Pay, but whatever payment system they use is so antiquated that they still have to swipe the card and manually enter in the buyers address. As a privacy and information security professional, this method of tender is antiquated and susceptible to "man in the middle attacks" and hacking. I should not have to provide my home address to make a payment. Please u... read more

I ordered roses for a wedding, only 25 of the fifty were usable as they were brown and flattened. I kept emailing and calling back and forth with staff but couldn't reach the manager. They offered me no refund. the situation caused a lot of stress on the day of the wedding, and the issue was not resolved to my satisfaction.

I hired Sylvia's to do the florals for my wedding after the venue that I was working with highly recommended them. During my intial meeting, I met with Kristina and she was wonderful! She talked through many options with me, provided her input and expertise, and gave me a very reasonable proposal, which I accepted. Months into the planning process, I lost touch with Kristina and learned that she was no longer with Sylvia's. Instead, I was directed to speak with Jerry. Though hard to reach at first, once I got in touch with J... read more

Beautiful arrangement but so strange that not one of the hydrangeas made it 12-24 hours. I've always had great product from Sylvia's, this won't change my purchasing from them but I may steer clear of hydrangeas a while. 

Business response:

Jessica, thank you for your review and kind words! I am sorry to hear about the hydrangeas however and I want to make things right. Feel free to reach out to me at kevintheflorist@gmail.com with your order information so we can try to improve this! We have quality checks on our flowers when they arrive and before they leave the shop but sometimes unusual situations can occur that we can't identify including floral bacteria, etc. Hydrangeas are especially sensitive flowers but I'm incredibly sorry this happened and I hope we ... read more
