Flowers by Stem

Flowers by Stem is as a full-service floral design company for weddings and events in and around the Chicago area. We believe that flowers inspire beautiful moments. Whether it be a bouquet as unique as you are, or a vibrant centerpiece that captures the essence of your celebration, we love creating innovative, one-of-a-kind experiences through our flowers and love to collaborate with our beautiful couples. Owner/Lead Designer Stephanie Stopka will work with you to deliver your vision using the highest quality flowers available, with a dedication to sustainable design. Flowers by Stem takes an eco-friendly approach to floral design. We do this in a variety of ways, including: - Focusing on local, in-season flowers during the Midwest growing season - Working directly with local sustainable flower farmers - Recycling and composting waste - Communicating all invoices electronically - Passing it on - we coordinate flower donations after events. Many of our flowers enjoy a second life at nursing homes and hospitals around the city. - Stephanie works closely with the Green Wedding Alliance, sitting on its board of directors
