A Perfect Petal

What a wonderful person to work with. I feel like she simply understood me. My wedding flowers were amazing and she was seriously decently priced. I told her I wanted a contained mess of rose and greenery and she made it look like Pinterest perfection! Rebecca is so genuine and easy to work with. Do not pass up an opportunity to meet with her!

Went for a corsage for my 6 year old daughter for a daddy daughter dance. It looked nice and ready on time, but they charged me $ 25. It was a total ripoff for such a tiny thing. The problem was not the size, just the price (the tickets for the dance itself were less than $ 20!) I bought it anyway because I didn’t have time to get another, and it was for my daughter. This place should be called,
A Perfect Ripoff

Rebecca at A Perfect Petal is amazing!
At our initial meeting she spent hours with us discussing every, and I mean EVERY, detail of our wedding. She listened to all of my ideas, and gave suggestions from her experiences. We were so pleases with her work and dedication. She truly made us feel so important, and like we were her top priority.
Because my sister just got married, I know how it could be dealing with other florist. Rebecca was very detailed. Our invoice stated every detail, down to the flower type, color, arrangement, delivery expectations. And this is so important so that you know exactly what to expect.
She was able to do a preview of our flowers. This was amazing and made me even more excited. Visually seeing the flowers before the wedding was so helpful because I knew right away they were prefect!
All of our flowers were full, and beautiful. Her team was on time and very helpful. She made the most amazing bouquets. I thought my bridal bouquet was so prefect! and exactly what I wanted.
Flowers are huge, and set the tone for your wedding. With how much time and attention she spent with us, I felt so well taken care of.

I found A Perfect Petal on Unilocal for my August, 2013 wedding. After making appointments with several florists, I found that Rebecca was the most helpful and detail-​oriented of everyone I met with. I felt really out of my element at the appointment, because I know almost nothing about flowers. Rebecca made me feel so comfortable by showing me photos and examples on her iPad so that I could really visualize how things would look.
My mom and I had purchased lanterns for centerpieces, and my dad made several boxes to use as well. Rebecca took all of it and completely made my ideas and vision a reality. She has so much knowledge, and did an amazing job choosing colors and types of flowers that coordinated with the picture I had in my head. Walking into my reception space was a very special moment!
Rebecca is super flexible and easy to work with. She was able to provide us with flower options that made our centerpieces and bouquets look rich and full, while still keeping in mind our budget. I would recommend A Perfect Petal to anyone in a heartbeat!

Rebecca did the flowers for our wedding and we were so impressed! At our initial meeting she helped us figure out what we did and did not need as well and gave wonderful recommendations on flower types while staying within our budget. I could not believe how beautiful her arrangements turned out for the wedding day! I wish that I could have kept my bouquet forever! My husband and I highly recommend A Perfect Petal!

We hired A Perfect Petal for our reception and ceremony flowers and they were so beautiful. The family still talks about them and our wedding was four years ago! We had these swirl petals down the aisle, gorgeous flowers on the gazebo and these huge gorgeous trumpet vases aligning the aisle too. The trumpets doubled as flowers on some of our reception tables and we had a hard time preventing people from trying to snag them at the end of the night! We also did smaller flower and vase arrangements with cool lighting. Those people could and did take.
We just celebrated our anniversary and I wish I could enjoy what we experienced that day every year.

Cheap nice flowers, but if feels like its run more like a hobby than a business. They can’t figure out exel to give accurate updatable quotes, and mystery charges started appearing on our bill late in the game that were never mentioned in the contract or any conversation we had with her.
You should be aware this business is going around attempting to have bad/​mediocre reviews removed. This review is quite old, but they attempted to block it on other sites. Their reviews may not be indicative of actual experiences.

Rebecca and her team were great. We were pretty clueless when it came to types of flowers and color combos and Rebecca made some excellent recommendations. She kept our budget in mind and created the perfect ambiance for our big day!

Please note: Their location has moved from Mt. Prospect to Arlington Heights, since I wrote this review :) Please check A Perfect Petal out! You will be happy you did.
Our wedding was 5÷21÷11, and Rebecca provided us with the most gorgeous flowers. My husband and I did not know much (to say the least) about flowers coming into the store. Based off of the fact that A Perfect Petal was in between the location of our reception hall (Arlington Heights) and the church (NW side of Chicago), we decided to check it out. Flowers were a lot more in general than we thought they would be, but compared to what my friends have paid other florists in recent years, they were very reasonable. Rebecca worked with our budget and helped us come up with what we wanted that we had difficulty describing! Rebecca was one of our favorite people to work with, and I feel that she is a very genuine person, wanting to help make people’s wedding as beautiful as possible… she even gave us some pointers regarding table arrangements/​other things that were unrelated to flowers/​making any profit from us. My favorite thing about the flowers’ experience was that she was able to put my grandmother’s rosary around my bouquet. Fabulous customer service and beautiful flowers.

I booked A Perfect Petal for my wedding on November 8, 2014. After looking at reviews on wedding florists, I knew I’d have some researching ahead of me. I do not know much about flowers or wedding flowers for that matter so I needed a reasonably-​priced, professional who would be able to give me beautiful wedding flowers. My first meeting with Rebecca was actually not for my wedding but for my friend’s wedding. It just so happened that Rebecca had time left over after the meeting to talk with me. She was very knowledgeable and suggested many ideas to the both of us, since we were not really sure what we were looking for. She has done wedding flowers for a while so she really knows her stuff! And it showed. After my friend decided to book her for her wedding, so did I.
We were not disappointed! The flowers were absolutely beautiful. Rebecca was thorough and went over every detail with us — from the toss bouquet to the flower girl petals. She was very organized and guided us through the process. My friend and I knew that we were both in good hands with her.
The price tag for this place might seem higher to some people but I am telling you, it is worth it in the end when you see your flowers! Rebecca will work with you and suggest ways to put cheaper flowers into the bouquets if needed. She is very creative — just tell her an idea and she will go off of it from there!
My bouquet was very classic — rounded, all red roses, stems wrapped in an off-​white ribbon (to match my dress), 2″ open at the base, while my bridesmaids had a round bouquet with red and dark pink roses with a ballet pink ribbon (to match their dresses). Of course, we had the parent flowers as well. We also rented a runner for the aisle and had Rebecca do some altar arrangements and a hanging arrangement for our wedding as well.
I am so glad that we picked this flower shop. I definitely recommend Rebecca!

I was referred to A Perfect Petal by a friend of mine for my wedding on 11÷12÷11. Working with Rebecca was truly a delight. My first meeting with her was great. We brain stormed, she gave me suggestions without making me feel like she was being pushy or not letting my creativity come through. I was very impressed and wanted to work with her after that meeting. However, I decided to meet with another florist to compare with. Well the second florist meeting was awful and I ended up walking out after 10 minutes and gave Rebecca a call and hired her. She did my boutique, my bridesmaids’ boutiques, groom and groomsmen boutonnieres, parents and grandparents’ flowers, flower girl flowers, a remembrance boutique for my mother, these amazing big flower balls that sat on top of vases, flowers inside of vases, everything accented with candles and our gorgeous chuppah. At our first meeting, I showed Rebecca a picture of a chuppah that I wanted. It was wooden, and had flowing crystals all around it. She showed me a picture of the only chuppah they had. I didn’t like it so I was just going to rent it elsewhere. A week later, Rebecca informed me that they were building a wooden chuppah (like my picture) and they could put the crystals that I wanted on it as well. Obviously, I was thrilled. It turned out so beautiful! That is just one example of how Rebecca goes the extra mile for her clients. Over a week after the wedding, my boutique and honor boutique for my mom looked brand new still!
I will recommend her to any and everybody that is getting married because she did an unbelievable job with my wedding.
