Larkin Floral | West Dundee, IL — Local services in Dundee Township

I utilized larkin floral for my wedding and I want to start with my flowers were beautiful but the presentation and timing was not what we asked for. For our 2pm ceremony we planned for our florist to get there at 1130am to put up flowers on the arch as well as give extra single flowers to our photographers for detail shoots. The florist did not arrive until after 1230pm as she was stuck in traffic. She was able to give the photographers flowers at 130pm but at this time the detail shots were finished. Secondly, she did not give my husband a different boutineere from his groomsmen including our wedding color specific to the bride and groom (purple/voilet) that he was understandably upset about. Additionally at the reception, we asked for scattered flowers around floating candles and lanterns and she came with gold vases of flowers in the middle of the table. (Gold was not in our color pallette at all). This was all emailed to Parisa with detailed instructions several months before our wedding. Thank goodness our wedding planner was able to work with her an hour before the reception to change the flowers to our vision and everything ended up looking beautiful. I just hate that so many things were so last minute...

When my father-in-law passed away we decided to stop in to Larkin floral to see if they could help us with the floral arrangements. He was the first full-time chief of Carpentersville fire and we wanted to do something special. We just wandered in; Parisa was in the middle of a large project. She immediately stopped everything to sit down with us and discuss our wishes. She was able to help us determine the color scheme we wanted and even came up with the idea of custom designing a Maltese cross for him. On the day of his funeral everyone was so impressed with her work. Not only was everything perfect but the quality of the flowers was astonishing! They lasted long enough for us to use for the internment, which was weeks later. Larkin floral is hands down the best floral shop I have ever been to. I would highly recommend them for...

Thank you so much for creating these gorgeous flower arrangements to remember our loved one. By far the were exceptional as many commented on the unique design and attention of detail. By adding our winterberry branches and cardinals which my father-in-law loved as he lived, just goes to express your never-ending commitment to really making any arrangement so special to those who seek your services. I also want to add, that going local and ordering your flowers from an actual florist, is more cost efficient as well, as 3rd party florists take a percentage for no work at all. Support this local florist as you will not be disappointed! Thank you for coming up with such a wonderful design as it has comforted our family and left a...
