Celidan Creations

Celidan did our wedding flowers. The reason we went with them was because the price was cheaper than other florists we inquired with. They were very nice to us, helped come up with the best ideas where we were not sure what to do and listened to everything that we did want to do. The best thing of all that they did were the reception table centerpieces, everyone was in awe of them, but since I designed them, I'll take some credit for that :). Those flowers held up pretty well and were blooming in the parents' home for almost another week. The same goes for the bridesmaids' bouquets. The bridal bouquet, however, was smaller than I imagined and started wilting almost right away, makes me regret that I did not insist on some form of concealed irrigation. The boutonnieres were made well, but in my view the roses that were chosen for those boutonnieres were too big and hence started to come apart as the day went on. And although I did not get to see the church pew decorations up close, my mother in law told me that the swags were sloppy and her sister had to fix them before the ceremony. Overall, for the price, this was a good deal, and the florist herself was super nice, so if you want to get decent flowers for your wedding on a budget, I'd say go for it.

Our flowers were beautiful, and exactly what we requested. Janine was very accommodating of our requests (and some indecisiveness during planning!) and stayed within our established budget.

Celidan Creations did all the flowers and centerpieces for my wedding. They did a wonderful job! Delivered the flowers to my parent's house, the church, and the reception. They listened to exactly what I wanted and did a great job!

Planning from another state can be difficult, but the staff at Celidan Creations made is about as simple and easy as it could possibly be! They were incredibly flexible and accommodating - I was able to meet with them on my infrequent trips home and they were always available by email and phone.

I had only a rough idea of what I wanted in terms of flowers, but they were able to offer up a wide variety of ideas and ultimately, everything turned out beautifully. They were really excited about what they do and I felt like they really cared about making my day beautiful. I changed my mind several times (once was because my bridesmaid dresses came in the wrong color and due to time we could not reorder!) and they were very flexible and calm about it. Also, I thought their prices were beyond reasonable - I was pleasantly shocked when they told me the total cost!

All in all, they were wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend them to future brides!

oh my goodness, I cannot tell you how pleased I am with Celidan! From the beginning to the end. I was not obsessing over flowers, I gave a general idea of the colors I wanted and the overall look and my budget. I met with them a few times, specifically Karen and Terri and they walked me through options, I said sure because I'm not knowledgable in many flowers. I got married a few weeks agao and the flowers were AMAZING! We had SO many compliments on them, I was obsessed with them, I couldn't stop staring myself! They did an AMAZING job and they know what they're doing. They were on time, friendly, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them to anybody....just thinking back on how perfect all the flowers looked, I want to go back and have her back me bouqets of them. HIGHLY recommend, love love love them!

This florist is great!! My flowers were beautiful and they will work with you to fit your budget.

The only complaint was that the stargazer lilies were barely open for my big day (it was in the middle of winter though). The next day, they opened and were beautiful. They should have told us that putting them in warm water would open them.

Very knowledgeable staff...bring in your own bouquet ideas...no problem. I had done my homework and looked at other florist online, etc. Best for your bucks and the staff was friendly and worked with you through the whole ordering process.

Celidan is a high value for cost; compared to many other florists they provide quality flowers at a lower price (including setup). Although not as creative as some other florists, they are more than willing to work with your ideas and photos. I really appreciated that they were willing to work around my tight schedule as I planned from out-of-town.

I had Karen design my wedding and all the wonderful people at Celidan do the flowers for my wedding. I was amazed at the lengths they went to to make my wedding beautiful! They invited me to come and view flowers, come back and change anything or call with concerns. I got so many compliments on how fresh and beautiful my arrangements looked. I felt that everything was designed and made unique for me and I would reccommend this florist to anyone who wants amazing quality and a great price!! They are awesome!!!!!

Firstly, I'd like to say that the bouquets that we received from Celidan Creations were simply stunning, and I couldn't have been more pleased. They were gorgeous. The "altar" decoration was also nice, although used a bit too many greens rather than blooms, but it was still very pretty, and I was happy with it. My lowered rankings are due to the cost (I thought we paid a bit too much for just bouquets and altar decorations and 3 corsages for mothers, etc - we did not get bouts for the guys or any table decorations). I didn't shop around too much because we were planning our wedding at a distance and because this florist came highly recommended from a friend. The lowered ranking for professionalism is due to our initial consultation, where the florist simply argued with me for most of the hour we met. She insisted I needed white in my bouquet (I hate white), she insisted that my colors weren't "spring" enough (I wanted red and yellow), she insisted we needed bouts for the guys (my husband didn't want them). Of course we won out on all fronts, but it was a little frustrating to argue and be up-sold for an hour when we knew exactly what we wanted. And I was fairly flexible - I knew what colors I wanted, but was entirely flexible on the types of flowers - I was more than happy to go with what was in season and readily available. I just wanted red with a few touches of yellow. But once we made that clear, and the florist accepted no white, no bouts, no pink...things were fine. And the end result was great, and beyond my expectations. So I would recommend them, I'd just make sure to be firm in communicating what you want.

I loved working with Celidan. They sat down with me on two separate occasions to look at pictures of things I liked and then to brainstorm with me what they could do. I especially appreciated their making a "sample" bridesmaid bouquet for me right there in our meeting. They did far more with my budget than the other florists I looked at, and I received many comments about how beautiful and well-placed the flowers were. I never had to worry about a thing and appreciated the friendly service I received in the months and days leading up to the wedding.

My flowers were amazing and the designers were out of this world! I cried when I saw my bouquet, the center pieces were exactly what I had pictured in my head, and they even threw together samples while I was sitting there. So easy to work with and they have tons of great ideas.

Beautiful flowers. Calla Lillies are delicate- so be careful.
They forgot to include the flowers for my ushers. I was so wrapped up in the day that I didn't realize it was too late.

This florist was ok. The flowers were all very pretty and I was very happy with the bouquets. The only thing that I didn't like was that I just wanted three flowers on the cake, very simple with clean lines, and she covered the cake with flowers. But I'm not sure that I had made that super clear to her beforehand, I just gave her a picture of the cake and drew three flowers on it. She might have just thought I was too lazy to draw all the flowers that I wanted. But I guess you jsut have to be very clear with things that you want with every vendor.

We were sooooo happy with Celidan! We worked with Adam, who was totally great. I told him what I was looking for, and he made it happen the day of the wedding! We recieved the most wonderful compliments on our flowers. The price was excellent as well. We live in Naperville, and Celidan is in Naperville as well, but our wedding was 45 minutes away in Utica. Adam drove all the way out there for us, and we were not charged anything extra for that!

Celidan Creations is a small shop that did a wonderful job for our wedding. The saleswoman (sorry, I don't remember her name) was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the types of flowers that would be most appropriate for our wedding. I had visions of what I wanted but wasn't sure and she helped me to decide on a beautiful arrangment. They provided everything - centerpieces, flowers for the ceremony, bride, bridesmaids, flowergirls, boutainniers. They even provided some lovely potted plants for the church steps since I voiced that I was concerned about the cracks on the steps. They delivered and set everything up and it all looked gorgeous. I would highly recommend this vendor.
