Marguerite Gardens Florist

Marguerite Gardens NEVER disappoints! They are always very helpful and fully of creativity. The best neighborhood florist around. I recently called asking for 2 tropical themed bouquets for a party I hosted. These are amazing!

Needing a quick housewarming gift, I wandered into Marguerite’s. They have a variety of single stem flowers for you to mix-and-match and lots of unique and beautiful vases (and candles and lights, it’s kinda magical). I picked the funky, spikey looking orange flower, two other random flowers that I thought matched and hopelessly brought them to Rachel at Marguerite’s. She did the rest of the magic, picking out complementary flowers and adding eucalyptus (the greenery!). On top of that, she trimmed everything perfectly to fit into the 4x4inch glass square vase I wanted and packed it snug into a box for travel. Couldn’t be happier and spent less that $30 on this beautiful, personalized, gift! Thanks, Rachel!!

I order peony's while in Virginia in preparation for my and my wife's anniversary. They were to be delivered to my hotel room prior to check in. I was extremely happy with the staff's desire to make the arrangement and service special. Their help was extremely comforting and the arrangement was beautiful. They even helped with offering suggestions to transport the flowers back to Virginia. We made it back to Virginia and the flowers get more beautiful everyday! The experience was wonderful and one that my wife and I will never forget. Thanks for making our anniversary special!

This place is a complete ripoff. The four flowers shown in the picture cost $59 dollars. I instantly regretted my purchase and went to return the four flowers within one hour of the original purchase. The store would not accept my return because the manager was not present. There are plenty of other flower shops in the area. Avoid this place at all costs.

What a great experience. I stopped by to get some flowers for our 5 year anniversary and everything turned out amazing! The flowers that were picked out were unique and beautiful. The way they were arranged was absolutely perfect. Such a cute little store, highly recommend.

This is my second consecutive year visiting these guys for Valentine’s Day flowers. The staff takes the anxiety out of the equation when it comes down to choosing the perfect assortment for your loved one. They offer a wide array of flowers, vases, and accompaniments to virtually assemble an infinite amount of bouquets. The bouquet I picked out (preassembled vase, gift bag, and flowers) ran me $40; great price for a beautiful set that impressed her.

Lisa did such a wonderful job with our wedding bouquets! She sat down with us and really listened to what we wanted and we absolutely loved her work!

First, let me say I live in Los Angeles !! No Hiccups with my order 🙌🏽 The website is easy to navigate and ordering was simple… Flowers looked exactly like the photo even more gorgeous!!!!! Aunt sent picture when received !!! Follow up from staff is amazing. Will order again!!! Reliable and Perfect Beautiful Flowers!! Will not be disappointing!!! Promise

This was a stop at a holiday trolley fest I went on, and I'm so glad it allowed me to discover this location! About 35 of us descended upon this store, and the employees were probably a bit bombarded, but helped us all as quick as they could. Lots of cute decor and Voluspa candles on the second level. Looks like they have space to do classes there as well. Individual blooms seemed to be a bit pricey, but gorgeous nonetheless. We discovered their small jewelry case, and my friend and I each got the most gorgeous little delicate bracelets with tiny beads and circle charms. Would love to find out which designer made them so I could buy more pieces, but since we were short on time and they were busy, I didn't have a chance to ask. Would love to return and explore a bit more.

I wanted to get a lovely friend of mine a bouquet, but I didn't want to get flowers from the grocery store. I checked online to see if there were any flower shops near me. And to my surprise, I came across Marguerite Gardens! This beautiful flower shop is just right down the street from me! As soon as I walked in, I knew I was going to leave with a gorgeous bouquet. I've never shopped for flowers before, so this experience was new to me. The girl at the counter (sorry I forgot your name, but we talked about tattoos) was so helpful and told me I could either pick the flowers myself or she can help. I picked out several dark and lovely flowers and she arranged them beautifully. I could not be happier with this shop and my friend adored the flowers. She remarked on how she was trying to get a specific flower at whole foods but it cost too much and wasn't very fresh (in the photo I've included, it's the one with lots of condensed petals) I will be back soon! I can't wait to see what the shop has to offer as the seasons change. Thank you!

Found Marguerite Gardens through Floom. This pumpkin arrangement is everything! Helped things feel like fall in this lackluster time.

Sarah and the team at Marguerite Gardens went above and beyond to style and deliver a beautiful succulent arrangement. Their delivery was super convenient! Highly recommend and will be using in the future-plants make beautiful gifts.

The flowers and design were amazingly beautiful. Thank you to Laura for putting this together. She did a fabulous job! High quality and gorgeous. I'm excited for your business!

Beautiful flowers and great customer service! My mom has had flowers delivered to me twice from Marguerite Gardens, and each time they were very accommodating with delivery, ensuring someone would be home. I'll definitely be ordering from here in the future.

Lisa did an amazing job on our wedding florals--she was so creative, attentive and responded quickly to any questions we had. Love their floral selection & creative work!

If you do not suffer from any allergies related to flowers, pollen, etc. you will love this place. I love the smell of fresh flowers! They also have such great modern industrial pieces that are eye catching. I love walking by here and seeing what window display they have going on. I picked up some random pieces here last week from their sale cart. They were unique finds! In addition to flowers, they also have home goods and decorative items here. This is one of my favorite shops on Clark. Definitely stop by if you get the chance!

I had the worst experience with this floral design business. I ordered a candle and flowers from out of state and they delivered the most awful flowers that didn't look like any of the flowers I saw on their web sight that I had ordered. When I called to let them know the flowers were unacceptable, I was so disappointed with their attitude because they were rude and the manager refused to give me a credit or to even send fresh flowers. Such a waste of my hard earned money. So I would advise that if you're ordering flowers from out of the area not to order from here because they don't care about customer satisfaction at all and will happily take your money and throw together their worse flowers. I've heard of some florists doing this but it was the first time it happened to me. Buyers beware from ordering from Marguerite Gardens because they are there to take your money and could care less about customer satisfaction.

I called to order flowers for my mother for mothers day. I live in LA so I yelped florists near Ravenswood and Marguerite Gardens came up with good reviews. I checked their website and liked their aesthetic, so I gave them a call. They were very friendly on the phone. Since they didn't have pre-canned arrangements to order by name (which is the type of place I was looking for--a place that does custom arrangements), it did make it a little hard to describe what I wanted. Unfortunately, I don't know a lot of flowers by name (except roses, lilies, and the like), so it was hard to negotiate and understand what would be sent. But I think we worked it out. I said I like the top photo on their website under arrangements in the birch wrapped vase, but I would like something not so prickly (as that picture). I was also very clear that I didn't want pink. My mom is not a "pink" kind of a person. The flower arrangement was unique, but I wouldn't say it was my favorite. And I'm sad to say, it had a lot of pink. It also had a lot of crazy sticks everywhere, but now as I look at other customer photos here on yelp, that seems to be their thing. If it's not yours, you may want to ask them to tone it down. I was happy with the amount of flowers for the price, but I think the arrangement was a bit top-heavy. My mom liked them, though, or least said she did, so that's what's important. I would use them again, but if it's your first time and just calling in hopefully you can be more specific than I was. I uploaded the arrangement to yelp so you can see (description says 'What I received for $100.") They also delivered same day, which was nice.

Beautifully curated selection of flowers. Good prices and wonderful sales people. Sue R

Such lovely florals. Love receiving and gifting flowers from here. They've never disappointed.

I order peony's while in Virginia in preparation for my and my wife's anniversary. They were to be delivered to my hotel room prior to check in. I was extremely happy with the staff's desire to make the arrangement and service special. Their help was extremely comforting and the arrangement was beautiful. They even helped with offering suggestions to transport the flowers back to Virginia. We made it back to Virginia and the flowers get more beautiful everyday! The experience was wonderful and one that my wife and I will never forget. Thanks for making our anniversary special!

They helped me a month before my arrival [day after Xmas] to put together an arrangement for my memorial site. 1st time I have been back in almost 20 yrs. Asked for 5 Calla Lilies just like my G'ma had in her bridal bouquet when she married my G'pa. Flowers were awesome, thank you!

I talked to Laura at Marguerite Gardens about a Valentine's Day gift for my wife. I asked about roses and she suggested that I should instead have a bouquet of mixed flowers made instead. I am so happy that I listened to Laura. My wife bought me roses for Valentine's Day from Costco, Marguerite Garden flowers were spectacular in comparison. Laura's arrangement had a wide variety of flowers that I had never seen before, some large and some small, all with a wonderful aroma. Most importantly, this was not a delivery from an average florist, but instead a work of art to be cherished. Now almost a week since Valentine's Day, the roses that my wife purchased are starting to fade, the Marguerite Gardens flowers are just as beautiful as the day that they were delivered. We will certainly use Marguerite Gardens for our home and for delivery to friends and family.

Seriously AMAZING quality of flowers and INCREDIBLE customer service! I live in the Southwest Suburbs and wanted a local Chicago florist to deliver flowers for a very special friend. I asked for specific requests and Rachel was so accommodating, I couldn't even believe it! She sent me photos as she made everything and sent me a final picture for my approval before sending it off as well. All within a few hours!!! Truly blown away by my customer experience. Cannot recommend Marguerite Garden's enough!!!

I called an hour and a half before closing time to order an impromptu bouquet for a specific budget. I left the design open ended but gave a few choice colors and pieces I'd like included (seasonal flowers, eucalyptus, long lasting, pinks and purples etc.) Not only did were they able to take my order and have it ready quickly, the bouquet turned out beautifully and smelled divine. A very generous arrangement for the price point! Beautiful birthday gift. Thank you!

We just had our wedding this past weekend and Marguerite Gardens was our florist. They did an AMAZING job!! The tables arrangements were absolutely gorgeous - even more than I could have imagined. The flowers for the wedding party and family were beautiful - the flowers in my bouquet are still beautiful 3 days later! Lisa did a great job when we were planning and kept us right within our budget without trying to oversell. They've been our local florist for the past several years, and we're so happy to have had them be a part of our day.

I started a new job, and my sweet parents, who live in Michigan, looked for a nearby local florist and sent me flowers on my first day. The lovely folks at Marguerite Gardens sent my mom a photo of the arrangement before it was delivered to me, to make sure that it looked good to my mom, then called me at work to arrange a convenient time to drop it off to me. I'm so impressed with that! My flowers are truly beautiful and I'm actually looking forward to heading back to Marguerite Gardens once this bouquet kicks the bucket--I've decided an office without flowers would just be too sad. :)

I'm not impressed! Was it that I said "I 'm not from Chicago"? Or "this is for their first anniversary- I want something special for them"? My parents and I wanted to send my brother and sister in law a bouquet like hers from the wedding for their 1st anniversary. I referenced two pictures on the company's website both medium sized but full arrangements and the women said "yes those would absolutely be in the $75-$100 range- we can make a really full arrangement like those with pink peonies for that" Overall, we looked like lame jerks! Thanks for the 2 peonies and a bunch of sticks for $100! Avoid this place unless you are in town and can oversee their final product before delivery! I was mortified at the result!

Seriously love this place if your getting flowers for someone and you want something different go to Marquetites here are some pictures I took today. And the staff is great always willing to help you with no matter what the size of the order is

I buy flowers once a month or so and decided to try Marguerite Gardens on a whim. This place is incredible. The last time I went, I asked for a medium-sized bouquet for under $30. I've had a lot of experience at other flower shops in Chicago where staff members have either said it couldn't be done or have even outright laughed at this request; instead, the lady helping me was unbelievably kind and created this stunning bouquet for only $29.77 (including tax). The people here are so generous - I love this place and I don't ever plan on going anywhere else!

Here's my deal with this place: If you get flowers (I don't know from their plants), don't expect to spend less than like $60 and have it look like an actual bouquet. The flowers I got were nice, I asked for $25-$30 bouquet and got (literally) 4 flower stems, a starting to pass prime white bunch flower, and a more fancy version of baby's breath. that's like $6 a stem! I asked "are these really rare or something?" she said...no.. OK, well then, WHAT THE F? Save your money and get flowers at Trader Joe's

To start things off I'm not a flower snob. . .however my wife is. She is great and not snobbish except when it comes to flowers. For example a high school boyfriend (or date or whatever) brought her carnations. She still resents them(the flowers that is, not the guy. ..). I entrust Marguerite Gardens with keeping my wife's high standards satisfied. . .and every once in a while they raise the bar just a bit. The staff is great, super helpful and they have never once tried to pawn off some crappy hallmarkish babies-breath filled bouquet of . . .well you get the idea. You may end up paying a bit more here than jewel but by and large their flowers last a heck of a long time, and are totally worth the money. This is a vignette of a typical experience: Me: Hey. Staff: Hey, your the best looking man ever! (that best looking man part is fabricated, but they are exceedingly helpful) Me: I'd like something (insert adjective here) for my wife around $x.xx dollars. Staff: Cool. We'll be super accommodating and fantastic. Oh yeah, and we'll make you look like you know what your doing with flowers. Me: Great. Staff: (after putting together a combination of stuff I'd never think of) Here you go, I hope she likes them. ****At Home**** Me: Honey, I got you some flowers Wife: Holy Awesomeness! You, husband are so-so. But these flowers are the cats-meow! If you are in a relationship with a flower-snob and are not one yourself this crew will keep you out of any trouble. . .unless of course your significant other loves carnations and babies breath.

I showed up at Marguerite Gardens this past July with a rather specific mission. Having recently landed A JOB, I wanted to make a nice terrarium to keep on my desk. I know VERY LITTLE about house plants. Luckily, there's the Internet. So I get there, with my list of possible plant options and some hope. I walk up to the gal in the store and lay out my list of requirements: slow growing, low light, small size, high-humidity tolerant. Without batting an eye, she shows me a couple plants that should do the trick. (The names of the plants weren't on a tag in the pot, so I have no idea what I bought.) Here's the thing. I just had my 90 day review last week and the plants in my terrarium are looking AMAZING! Anyway, I was ready to buy the plants. I realized I had everything at home to make my terrarium, except potting soil. On a whim, I asked if I could buy a pound or so, and she said "Sure!" So I did. My experience at Marguerite Gardens was completely positive. There was no pressure, or making me feel bad for my botanical ignorance, just a great attitude about helping me find what I needed. (Completely opposite end of the spectrum to my experience at Gethsemane, down the street!) I can't speak as to the flowers, but they hooked me up with the plants I needed. I am very happy with this establishment.

We got some wedding flowers there. I have to say 'meh'. Overpriced for what we got. I wish we would've shopped around more. We got a $35 place setting with 12 more flowers than the $150 bridal bouquet using the exact same flowers. Just don't say the word 'wedding' and wrap it yourself. Or go somewhere else.

You know how some people have a green thumb? Well, I have a black thumb. I have absolutely no talent for tending plants (as a matter of fact, I excel at killing them), nor do I have ANY clue on how to plant a container garden. Luckily for me, Marguerite Gardens DOES know! They were easy to work with, kept my budget in mind, and in general did a great job creating a lovely garden on my rooftop. Unfortunately I lost one of the hibiscus trees to a little bug infestation, but I don't think that was their fault....apparently bugs happen every now and then. See, I told you I know nothing about gardening! Anyway, the white shroud is upon us currently, but come next spring I'm definitely going to use Marguerite Garden again!

I have yet to be there or even meet the stellar artist(s), but I wanted to thank you for making the best arrangements for my boyfriend, as I have come to visit twice only to find beautiful arrangements made by you awaiting me at home. Thank you for adding beauty to our lives, you're truly talented; the arrangements are unique, tasteful, and simply gorgeous. I hope to stop by myself to tell you that in person. I have heard great things about your service as well!

The window displays earn them high marks alone; I used one of them as inspiration for my dining room when I moved into my new place. And from what I've seen, the quality is just top-notch. I must admit, I haven't often purchased bouquets directly from them. You see, my employer has a standing order for new arrangements every week, and when the lovely employees bring in the new flowers, they're kind enough to offer the old ones to any of us who are working. On several occasions now I've been lucky enough to snag a gorgeous arrangement that lasts a remarkably long time, especially considering that it's already been sitting out for a week. If I ever need an arrangement, either for a special occasion or just as a pick-me-up for my apartment, I will no doubt head straight to Marguerite Gardens.

Due to a busy work schedule, I couldn't make it home this year to spend Thanksgiving with my family. To make the most of my favorite food holiday, I decided to have other Chicago-stuck friends over. I was planning my table setting and my mom asked me what my center piece would be. I hadn't found one yet and probably wasn't going to get a chance to before Thursday hit. She offered to order me flowers to set on my table and in comes Marguerite Gardens. The arrangement they put together was beautiful! Modern, tasteful, and seasonally appropriate with flowers and branches I had never even seen before. Carrying them up to my apartment I even got compliments from people on the elevator! The arrangement made my table setting perfect. Granted they were a gift so I can't really judge value, but the result was beautiful!

This place is definitely pricey, but for a good reason. I've bought flowers from different florists and they never smell as good as the ones from Marguerite. The space and decor is also inspiring. I love to stop by here just to look around when I'm nearby.

Disappointed! My two dads ordered three corsages and two boutonieres for their wedding this past weekend. The flowers were kept in refrigeration over night as instructed but just two hours out they were already withered. The gardenia flower used for the two matching boutonieres appeared to have been one flower cut in half to make two items. Since this was their wedding, they were hoping for something more special. I admit that I have not spoken with them about this but there is very little that can be done at this time. The wedding day has passed, the costly price has been paid and it is over. This is just a caution to others to be sure you get what you think you are purchasing. I give them a snarl.

I ordered 3 arrangements for Mother's Day and they were nice but they fell a little short of expectations. They were very nice and helpful. Just wasn't what I expected.

Marguerite Gardens another local spot I hadn't heard of until yesterday. Located right on Clark St in Andersonville Marguerite Gardens is a boutique flower shop. You can pick out your own flowers and arrange them yourself - or their friendly staff will sort it out for you. The space is very friendly and calming - and it certainly is a step above flower shops with pre-made bouquets. If you're looking for some flowers, with a personal touch, this is your spot!

Ordered a bouquet for my friend's birthday and she loved them! They really listen to what you are looking for and work beautifully with your own budget. Would definitely recommend, especially if you're looking for something unique and special

THIS FLOWER SHOP MAKES ME SO HAPPY Every week I come in to purchase something to brighten up my living room. Their selection is beautiful ranging from classic to exotic. I just haven't seen better, more intriguing flowers. I always leave a little giddy, knowing how great my home will look with a few new stems from marguerite. The customer service is great. They'll let you be if you wanna do your thang. But if you need suggestions, they're very knowledgeable and friendly! GREAT FOR SUCCULENTS, TOO!

We were overjoyed with our wedding flowers from Marguerite Gardens. We worked with Lisa to create my custom bridal bouquet and all of the personal flowers for our wedding and everything turned out better than we imagined. For our wedding flowers, we wanted to incorporate fresh herbs in place of traditional greenery because my husband is a professional chef. Where several other florists turned us away or told us using herbs would be impossible, Lisa and her team were not at all intimidated by our unusual request and were enthusiastic about helping us turn our vision into a reality. My bridal bouquet included rosemary, mint, sage, purple basil and lots of delicate white flowers. It was so beautiful and so aromatic, and three days later, the herbs are still holding up! The bouquets for our wedding party and all of the rest of the personal flowers coordinated beautifully with my bridal bouquet and held up very well throughout the wedding day. Lisa even worked with us to arrange a special Sunday pick-up even though the shop is closed on Sundays. Everyone at Marguerite Gardens truly went above and beyond and we would highly recommend them!

Incredibly happy with my experience here. I came in to get flowers for my aunt's birthday. They have a gorgeous selection of beautiful, unique and exotic flowers. Both sales associates helped me team up to find the right flowers to create the perfect bouquet. My aunt was very happy and so surprised! It made a great experience even better. I would definitely recommend getting flowers here.

Great selection, a little pricey depending on the time of the year and what you are purchasing. They have great sales and friendly staff. Great addition to Andersonville. I picked up 4 long stem roses for $11 on sale on NYE.

This beautiful store will inspire you, rejuvenate you, and make you want to pack your bags and move in. In another life, this is the store I'd open. The staff are knowledgeable and creative and can help you create beautiful arrangements--just tell them your price point and they will knock your socks off!

These guys are fantastic. I love the European shop feel of the store, and the people there are beyond helpful. I usually walk in with a price-point in mind and not much else, though even when I have a specific flower or theme (e.g. something tropical-y), they are able to throw together a beautiful bouquet. I don't get a snobby vibe or feel pressured into investing more money into flowers than I want to. The bouquets always last a long time and never cease to earn me bonus points with Girlfriend. They also have a "frequent buyers" type of program, so I look forward to my $$ off of an arrangement soon! I will continue to make Marguerite Gardens my go-to for flowers because of the quality of buds and service.

This is a difficult review to write/rate because we really enjoy this shop. It's beautiful and everyone is very helpful. We love to choose our florals or branches or exotic leaves to use in our home. This is the first time I've used them for a delivery. While the delivery was prompt and on time the arrangement was not. I asked for something modern and masculine to compliment grey's, purples and whites. This floral arrangement arrived and looked like an English garden. While it was lovely, it was mostly white and blue and very heavy on the green fillers. I contacted Margurite Gardens immediately and they insisted on replacing this arrangement as soon as possible. I was pleased with this and the turn around time to receive the new arrangement. The new arrangement arrived and was better, but still a little too romantic for my taste. What disappointed me even more was that the next morning it was half dead. We contacted them again and they stated that the flowers that had died were new and also died in the shop. They refunded my money, which I did not anticipate, and apologized for our experience. I certainly appreciate their attention to customer service. They went above and beyond to accommodate me and even corrected the arrangement. In the end, it was a decent experience just not a decent product for what I was looking for. We will continue to purchase their selection of frills and fineries for our home, but think twice about using them to create an arrangement.

Thanks for the GREAT job on my last order. I will make a repeat order for Father's Day. The Staff is friendly, offer great prices and delivered my local order for free. They have a customer for LIFE. 5 Stars+ easily.

Marguerite Gardens did the boquets, corsages, and boutonniers for my recent wedding. On the whole, the experience was good! The staff was pleasant to work with during the planning process, they didn't try to pressure us into centerpieces, and their prices were reasonable. We wanted something a little less traditional, and the arrangements they came up with were just gorgeous. The colors were beautiful and they used lots of interesting textures. However, there were a couple day-of issues. First, I asked a few days before if one of the corsages could be made into a wrist corsage -- when the flower arrived, they were ALL wrist corsages. Not the end of the world, but mildly annoying. Second, while the boutonniers were lovely, they looked nothing like the ones we were shown initially.

Not one to write reviews, but I love this place! I used to never like spending money on flower arrangements, but the bouquets are so gorgeous here. It also helps that the staff are all so lovely and helpful and friendly, which has kept me returning.

Found this florist on Yelp, ordered online. Super easy and they created a beautiful arrangement for my daughter. Delivered on time. Very happy with their work and service! Thanks!

Great independent flower shop! They worked within our budget to provide us with beautiful fresh flowers for our Fall wedding reception! Friendly and reliable business! Will use them again and again!

Wow! In Chicago for my daughters birthday weekend and found this gem! I received very personal attention and the flowers were spectacular. Don't look any farther than this diamond in the rough. Thank you!!

The staff here are always so helpful and clearly stop everything they're doing to answer my questions. The products I've bought last longer than expected and are very beautiful. They give good descriptions about caring for the other plants I've gotten there too. So glad this shop is in the neighborhood!
