Coffee with my Peony

A little Illy, Weddings Unveiled Magazine, and conversation with my Peony. So lovely!

Ravenswood Billboard Factory Wedding

Congratulations to Mabby and Sara! The Ravenswood Billboard Factory was the perfect backdrop for their beautiful union. We filled vintage tins with simple blooms and natural cotton and absorbed a bit of Chicago history.
Stay tuned.. more pictures to follow ... the professional ones;)

The days of the dahlia are upon us...

There's really not a flower we don't love.
And when they look like this how can you blame us!
These gorgeous dahlias make us SWOON...and could brighten anyone's day.

They are locally grown from a beautiful farm in Michigan that takes great pride (as you can see) in their product.

Come by and grab one (or two or three or more) for yourself... because the days of the dahlia are almost gone! 

What better way to welcome fall than with one of natures perfect blooms.
The dahlia.

Hope to see you soon!

Wedding Flower Trends with CS Brides Magazine

Dilly Lily was honored to make these lovely wedding bouquets for a photo shoot to be featured in the upcoming June issue of CS Brides Magazine. 
The shoot was directed by the fashionable Chicago Style Editor of Modern Luxury Magazine, Graham Kostic.  (You can also find Graham as Creative Director of Glossed and Found.)

We hope you enjoy this sneak peak of our wedding flowers!  However, it is no substitute for what Graham has in store for you in the glossy pages of the next CS Brides Magazine!  We are awaiting June with bated breath!

"Be a floral enthusiast!"

Congratulations to Jessie and Bobby!

It was a warm autumn day when Jessie and Bobby said "I do" at
Fulton's on the River in Chicago.
Everyone enjoyed their love of color - Jessie carried a bouquet of all Circus roses and her bridesmaids carried a combination and flame dahlias, hydrangeas and hypericum berries. We especially loved the mini pumpkins.

Thank you for including Dilly Lily in your special day!

Also thank you to Pen Carlson Photography for capturing their Chicago style wedding day so vividly!
