Vale of Enna

ked so hard to make our vision come to life and even made the smallest of details a reality!! The day of result was even more amazing than I ever could have imagined! All photos below were taken by @Nicole Donnelly Photography - https://www.nicoledonnellyphoto.com/

hanks for being a fantastic vendor to work with.

you like but also make sure you are within budget.

for the ceremony and reception. We received so many compliments for guests on how gorgeous the flowers were - cannot recommend more! Very detail oriented - not one detail was overlooked. I also think they are very reasonably priced compared to some others in Chicago !10/10 recommend

x because Grace had it covered. She worked with my budget and the flowers turned out even more beautiful than I could have imagined.

ing are still getting asked "who did the flowers" and every guest said they were the most spectacular they have ever seen at a wedding!). We had initial meetings with several florists and Grace stood out from the start--incredibly kind, great listener, creative ideas, and very thoughtful. She created specific elements of the wedding based on us and our families. For example, instead of just making boutonnieres and corsages for the family assuming the same theme as the wedding party, she ask about each person, our relationship with them, and what they might like--this was such a personal touch and meant a lot to us. Grace worked incredibly well with all of our other vendors, communicated clearly, offered a floral trial in her studio so we could see things in person, and even helped us remember things we didn't think of (like a card box that we were able to borrow from her for a very minimal cost!). Grace is incredibly gifted in her art and incredibly kind. She took great care in each element of our wedding, big and small, and it was truly a pleasure to work with her and get to know her. We cannot say enough wonderful things about her and the Vale of Enna team!

on and made it come to life. We changed our mind on things a few time and Corrin was able to adjust our proposal quickly. Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful and I am so happy with the flowers and decor VOE used. We could not recommend enough!

had a great vision for our flowers and was super responsive to emails. We had MANY changes along the way and she never once acted burdened by them, instead complimented our ideas and incorporated everything seamlessly with her own vision. I walked into the ceremony and reception and was STUNNED by the quality of the florals, decor, and overall arrangement. I have no idea how she made everything come together even better than we could have imagined from the pictures and vision. HIGHLY recommend Vale of Enna (especially Corrin but we hear Grace is phenomenal too!) for ANY event you have coming up - you will not regret it! :)

t, but I was having a hard time articulating what I wanted, and ensure that I was sticking to a budget as well. After vague emails on my end and some Zoom calls, BAM, Corrin somehow puts together my dream vision board for flowers. She is so flexible if you need to add on things, like the flower girl flower crowns my nieces all of a sudden just had to have. The vision board was no comparison to the actual day. Everything was absolutely stunning, I could not have even imagined how beautiful it all looked. My advice- let Corrin do her magic because I could never have dreamed it would look so beautiful. If you have not booked your florist, you absolutely will not regret choosing Vale of Enna!!!

The planning process was super easy, just a few Zoom Calls from which she created a vision board that was spot on. Her team also stayed to flip some arrangements after the ceremony to help things move along! I was so happy with how everything came out - thank you so much Corrin and Vale of Enna!

f pictures of what I was looking for and the things that I liked. I was a little nervous about the final product as it all depends what is in season and available at the time. The morning of our wedding when the flowers arrived I was blown away. The first time I cried was when everything was ready and set up for our ceremony, the flower arrangements were exactly what I was looking for any more! The arrangements looked just as amazing when moved to the tables for our reception. I was truly blown away and will forever be obsessed with how it all turned out. I'm so happy we choose Vale of Enna for our wedding!

re grateful to work with. We met with a number of florist / design companies, including some very premium-priced ones in Chicago, but Grace stood out from the beginning as someone who would be phenomenal to work with and help us realize our vision effectively and efficiently. We particularly really appreciated how Grace worked with us to find ways to reuse different design elements between the ceremony and reception. The day of the event, we were blown away by the ceremony arch and centerpiece decor. My bouquet was absolutely beautiful and she went above and beyond to refresh our flowers before the ceremony and even the next day for our bridal brunch. Grace is such a gem and I would recommend her whole heartedly to anyone getting married in the Chicago area.

h every step of the process. Starting with our initial call we knew we were in great hands with Grace, and her proposal was easily the most creative, thoughtful, and detailed that we received. The flowers (+ candles, lanterns, vases, and other beautiful things) turned out even better than we hoped and look amazing in our photos. Her team was so professional and took care of everything. I would recommend Vale of Enna to any couple.

ewhat vague proposal. Grace stayed on the phone with me for over an hour going through every piece of my vision and requests, and then sent over the most detailed proposal outlining every single small piece of the floral set up she planned to do. It made my choice so easy! With a long engagement (2 years) I changed my mind quite a bit from beginning to end about what I wanted the aesthetic of my wedding to be. Grace was so, so patient and kind and remained excited and full of ideas throughout the whole process. She helped problem solve and rework things to stay within my budget. She did both a trial table meeting and attended the final walk through, and I felt like I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of! Everything from the bouquets, to the ferns we placed outside, to the candles set up in the venue looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL, and was just as I had hoped it would look. I almost cried when I walked into the reception room - it looked that amazing. I cannot recommend Grace & her team enough!! Thank you so much for being such a hugely important part of my day!!

icked up the bouquet for me and he is still raving about how great they were. The team was so kind, had offered to drop off the bouquet, and offered to make touch-ups during, if needed. Also, did I mention how STUNNING the bouquet was? It was stunning and exactly what I dreamed of! This team goes above and beyond. Highly, highly recommend!

. Grace created exactly what we were looking for our flowers and decor. Words can't do her work justice. We would pick Vale of Enna again over and over!!

I was looking for. She truly made the space feel magical! I’m also very grateful she always kept our budget in mind and thought of clever ways to reuse the floral throughout the night -- we ended up being able to have candles lining the aisle during our ceremony since we already had them for the centerpieces later in the evening. Huge thanks to Grace and her team for doing such an incredible job!

eel! They were very professional - polite, quick to set up, and we appreciated them wearing their masks :) Hope we can work with them again sometime soon!

f the aisle I walked down was perfect. Grace and her team did a phenomenal job taking my very little knowledge about flowers and turning it in to the most beautiful sight i have EVER seen. Grace can DO IT ALL!!!! She is an incredibly hard worker and will meet with you/chat with you as much as you need to make your vision come true. I wish I could give her a 10 stars!!

ver how beautiful my bouquet was and keep looking at the pictures.

ible with the multiple changes I made throughout the planning process. She will also work with you to make sure you get what you want within your budget! My flowers and design were absolutely gorgeous. Highly recommend using Vale of Enna for any event!

knew exactly what I wanted!!! Talking with Grace actually helped me build out my vision even more since she was able to provide such helpful insight and recommendations! Grace was very helpful when creating a floral and decor plan that both fit my vision and worked with my budget. She had so many wonderful recommendations to modify what I liked in a way that looked just as good but it was less expensive which I really appreciated. Grace provided very thorough proposals that really helped me visualize what the flowers were going to look like before seeing them in person at our walk through. Grace made my dream a reality. Walking into the reception brought me to tears because of all the amazing arrangements and candles that Grace put together. The day of the wedding it was more obvious than ever that she truly understood my wedding day vision and brought it to life in a way that was even better than I thought possible. I HIGHLY recommend Grace and Vale of Enna for your wedding day! Thank you so much, Grace!!!

erest vision to life! I live in SF but had my wedding in Chicago, and she was super easy to coordinate with and helped take the stress out of planning. We are so happy and thankful we worked with Grace!

as and somehow brought it to life. Walking into my ceremony and reception and seeing how beautifully Grace transformed the space brought my to tears. I absolutely recommend Vale of Enna to anyone who wants truly unique and stunning florals for their wedding day!

ghly recommend her to anyone! You will not regret it! Grace did an amazing job to turn what I envisioned into a reality! She is not only talented but also the sweetest person to work with!

sly wanted the wedding to be gorgeous with the perfect fall feel. I wanted it to feel elegant yet also warm, and intimate. At our first meeting at Vale of Enna, my worries were immediately erased, Grace truly knows what she is talking about and takes comprehensive notes on all of your floral dreams. After receiving our detailed proposal, I knew Grace was going to be able to turn my vision in the most beautiful reality. The planning meeting a month or so before the wedding was also so helpful – Grace walked us through all the details and even showed us our two centerpieces. It was so nice leaving the meeting to have complete peace of mind for floral on the day. The flowers on our wedding day were absolutely stunning with the perfect shades of red, burgundy, creams, peachy orange, and of course plenty of greenery. She also included 1000’s of candles in rustic gold votives which created the perfect intimate feel I was looking for. When I walked into the venue I was completely blown away. It was even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Not only is Grace beyond brilliant when it comes to your wedding look and floral she is also one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever met! She is so easy to work with and truly takes your vision and turns it into a reality. She was so helpful in all the questions I asked – even about linens, and also worked with our budget to make sure we didn’t have to sacrifice the look we wanted because of expenses. Grace, we can never thank you enough, thank you for making our wedding day everything I ever dreamed of and more!

cefully elegant look that we were striving for...I was speechless when I walked into the Grand Hall of Cafe Brauer to her creations! Thank you Grace, we will forever be grateful to you!

ofessional. Grace worked with us to stay within our budget. Our wedding day would not have been the same without her!!

ideas from Pinterest. She made our space everything we hoped for (and more!) and was always very responsive and easy to work with. We opted for a small cutting cake (and lots of different desserts) instead of the traditional large wedding cake, and when I e-mailed her just days prior to the big day to ask if she could do something with it, she said yes with no hesitation. It looked beautiful! We have nothing but great things to say about Vale of Enna and would highly recommend them to anyone.

ors were fabulous. The aisle looked amazing with the candles and the table settings were perfect - it had the exact romantic vibe we wanted. Thank you so much, I can't wait to see pictures so I can look at everything again! Highly recommend Vale of Enna for any event.

on. Hands down the flowers and decor at my wedding were my absolute favorite thing!!! If you use Grace and Vale of Enna you will not be disappointed!!!

w talented Sarah is! Sarah immediately grasped the concept I was going for and right away knew all sorts of flowers and greenery we could use to make it come to life, and she did! Everything she did for our wedding turned out so amazing! My bouquet was to die for! She mixed lanterns and floral for our centerpieces and we had a beautiful floral/greenery arch for our ceremony. Everything was just so beautiful and special!

into the venue on our wedding day I started to cry tears of happiness because she went above and beyond to make every detail absolutely perfect. I cannot stop raving about how perfect everything was, Sarah is brilliant and awesome to work with!

ment was a piece of art highlighting all of the beautiful flowers individually and together. Sarah and her team were wonderful. Everyone at the wedding commented on how beautiful all the flowers were. Her creativity and uniqueness created masterpieces.

at huge flower arch!) or too small. I would highly recommend Vale of Enna to anyone looking for gorgeous floral, creative ideas, and attention to detail. :)

es. Grace is creative, professional, and sweet as pie. Go with Vale of Enna for great service and gorgeous florals.

just got married last weekend, 07/18/2015 and besides marrying him, the flowers were my favorite part of the day! They were absolutely stunning and we received so many compliments. Grace was so sweet and so easy to work with. Our first consultation she really sits down and gets to know what your looking for. She also is able to rent out supplies and other items to perfectly fit your vision. A floral mock up came with my contract (which many others did not) and this gave me so much confidence going into my day. Even though I had the mock up, I was shocked on my wedding day by how amazing everything looked. Absolutely perfect! Her prices are also really great for a downtown florist. ( I had peonies, succulents, garden roses, spray roses, scabiosa pods and other filler greens). I would recommend Vale of Enna to everybody!

were PHENOMENAL. they took a rainy and cold day and turned my blank space venue into a cozy, romantic and beautiful place.. words can't describe how happy I was! you cannot go wrong with Vale of Enna.. all you have to do is look at a few of the pictures and you know that you will have masterpieces! LOVE! THANK YOU GRACE!!

interest images I had liked, and customized a proposal quickly. Her proposed prices were very reasonable and she was very quickly able to pare things down or exchange flowers/votives etc to make things fit within my budget without compromising on my vision. Setup the day-of was seamless.

ion and made it come to life and then some! I was blown away on our wedding day because everything turned out even better than we had imagined! Grace is a true artist when it comes to florals and can work with all kinds of aesthetics and budgets. I highly recommend her for your big day!
