Studio AG

Studio AG did a spectacular job at our November Gallery 1028 wedding! Nicole was such a pleasure to work with and really helped us execute our vision. We were more interested in décor rentals than a lot of floral arrangements and they were able to get everything we wanted. Studio AG was very familiar with our venue and knew exactly what was needed to decorate the space. Nicole even had great suggestions for reusing items from our ceremony in our reception to save a little in our budget. The day of the wedding everything was gorgeous and exactly as we had imagined. Thank you Nicole and staff for making our wedding as perfect as we had hoped!

Studio AG did an amazing job for my wedding last month at Lacuna Artist Lofts! My husband and I really wanted café lights across the rooftop deck and in our reception room. We had been quoted a ridiculous amount from another company to install them. Studio AG worked with our budget and it looked unbelievable! They also created a beautiful arch with flowers for our ceremony which was perfect for photos.
We worked with Nicole, who was always responsive and collaborative. My mom and I are very DIY and wanted to have a lot of input. She did a great job of incorporating our projects into the décor. She worked well with our other vendors and played a huge part in creating the look and feel we wanted for our wedding.

Nicole and the crew at Studio AG provided the décor for our wedding at Gallery 1028 in June 2014. They were part of an open house at the venue and we really liked the work they had done, so we set up an appointment with them and had everything sorted out in one easy meeting.
They’re very familiar with the venue and were able to customize the space exactly as we wanted. When we weren’t certain what we needed to have in place, Nicole was able to make suggestions that were right on the money. Once we’d decided what we wanted, we didn’t have to worry about a thing, as Studio AG coordinated with the venue. We just had to arrive for the event. The space was beautiful, the guests were comfortable and everything went perfectly smooth.
I highly recommend Studio AG as a décor provider, especially if you use Gallery 1028 for your event.

My husband and I utilized Studio AG for our wedding designs and flowers in October and could not have been happier! We stumbled upon one of their events while checking on our venue to see what it looked like when decorated for a wedding. We were in a less traditional wedding space at theWit hotel. We both loved how Studio AG transformed the space and immediately contacted Nicole to see how we could potentially work together. The meetings with Nicole were so casual and comfortable – and she assured me that she could create the look I was hoping for and we worked through the proposal together to fit my budget. Everything was very reasonable and came together beautifully! She even allowed for some of my DIY elements to be included within the décor and she purchased new elements for the event that Studio AG didn’t have on hand. She handled everything with the greatest care and there were so many compliments on the design and flowers from our event – guests commented on how much everything looked like us! AG really captured our personalities as a couple. I highly recommend working with Studio AG for future events and know I will, too!

We just had our wedding on Saturday December 6^th. Nicole was our designer and she was wonderful throughout the whole process. Her task was not small, having to transform a hotel ballroom into a more glamorous/​church feel like space including drapery, candles, chandeliers. Everything was beautiful. Our wedding was at the wit hotel which contains amazing window space, Nicole puts candles around the entire window ledge, added amazing floral arrangements and lounge furniture. I would absolutely recommend working with Nicole for a stress free event.

Studio AG was our wedding designer for our beautiful wedding at The W — City Center. Nicole and her team did an amazing job — the place was gorgeous! We live in PA so planned the entire wedding from a distance and they knocked it out of the park. They were completely professional and we received so many compliments!

WHOA, I could not have been happier or more blown away at the end result that Nicole and her team at Studio AG did! We were originally started working with a much more expensive décor/​florist, but found Studio AG at an Open House for Gallery 1028 and SO thankful we went with them. They provided everything we imagined and were extremely easy to work with.
I wasn’t really sure what to expect in floral and design and just hoped for the best, but Nicole blew my mind and the bouquets, boutonnières and table/​décor flowers were exactly what we wanted. We also had a TON of DIY stuff that we asked them to set up and they utilized everything just as we pictured it. They were really the best and we can’t thank them enough for such flawless execution!

Studio AG made our wedding absolutely beautiful! We had our wedding at Gallery 1028, and Nicole and Studio AG transformed the space into a stunning and intimate setting with their bouquets, boutonnieres, floral arrangements, candles, draping, and lighting (café lights and lanterns) — for both our ceremony and reception.
They were very easy to work with, flexible, and creative — suggesting ideas to make our wedding even more beautiful. I would highly recommend Studio AG for wedding floral and event design!

I’ll be honest when I say I did not have the first idea how to approach the planning process for my wedding décor and flowers. Nicole and Studio AG made the process exceptionally easy! Although the process was low maintenance, the décor and flowers were absolutely stunning. I still receive compliments on the beautiful, bold flower colors and intricate details in the décor. As a girl who doesn’t pay much attention to this sort of thing normally, I could not stop looking at my bouquet and centerpieces. I will never use another florist — Studio AG cannot be beat!

We had our May wedding at Gallery 1028 and they suggested we use Nicole, Estelle, and AG for our flowers and décor. It was a great and easy experience working with Nicole from start to finish. From our first email, Nicole was professional and timely as she answered all my questions. She was very patient when I changed the date and venue, and then changed it back. She encouraged me to find and send her pictures of my vision then arranged a meeting at the studio to show me all the items that complemented and matched what I wanted. Aside from the food tasting, this was the most fun I had planning our wedding. I pointed out yes’s and no’s and our overall décor came together. After this meeting, Nicole promptly sent a detailed breakdown of all the items I chose and associated costs but made it clear that it was a starting point. She worked with me to save money. I must have asked her 1,000 questions and changed my mind almost as many times. She was always patient, nice, knowledgable and understanding throughout the planning process. On the day of, Nicole and her entire crew made it look easy and my wedding was exactly what I wanted. You won’t regret using Nicole and AG!

I’m sad Alice’s Garden no longer has a storefront, but they’re still around and providing amazing florals! I think they’re called «Studio AG» now and are available by calling the number on their website. I’ve used Studio AG personally and professionally for arrangements, and for event décor/​florals both large (200+) and small scale events. I’m continually amazed at their creativity and have never been disappointed with any arrangement I’ve ordered from Alice’s Garden/​Studio AG!
If you’re looking for high end, modern arrangements — this is the place!

Worst… florist…ever! In over a year of wedding planning the only vendor issue we had was with Studio AG. We had several meetings and many, many calls and e-​mails sent back and forth, we provided pictures, colors, everything and yet our wedding flowers came out terrible. The flowers that arrived the morning of our wedding had several mistakes from what was stated on our final invoice — my jr. bridesmaid was to have a little wrist corsage, instead she got a bouquet; the color of the ribbon on maids’ flowers was completely wrong and we ended up with extra flowers we didn’t order. It was as if they did the flowers blindly with no instruction, despite working with them for almost a year. During the planning we had to re-​do our quote numerous times because what was discussed in our meetings, on the phone and over e-​mail was simply forgotten or ignored and overall we felt neglected, our designer always seemed to busy to work with us. It was a struggle from start to end. After the wedding I called our venue to talk to them about this florist as they had recommended him and they told me they had, had other unhappy clients come to them with complaints and the venue had decided to not recommend them any more. If you are getting married DO NOT consider this florist, even if they are in your budget. The only thing that actually worked out was that they credited us our jr. bridesmaid flowers because it was obviously and completely wrong. Enter into contract at your own risk!

Very disappointing. This is a high-​end flower shop, and I expected flowers that would last for more than 3 days. My husband sent me a beautiful dozen roses this week. They were COMPLETELY dead within 3 days. I caleld to ask if this was normal, and the man on the phone said yes. I have definitely received roses that have lasted more than 3 days, especially for what I’m sure he paid!

I thought they were Studio AG but Alice’s Garden is all good. :) A very high end florist that has great customer service. They have one of the best walk in flower stores in the Chicagoland area. Good stuff.

Not only did they call my mom to remind her to send me flowers again this year, but when I wasn’t at work to receive them they sent me brand new ones the next day. On top of that, they went out and purchased special candy to come with the flowers!
Fantastic customer service and a great place for Valentines Day!

I came here for a bouquet for mother’s day and for a graduation I was attending. They had premade bouquets that were extremely unique and beautiful. Both peopel LOVED their bouquets. I would definitely recommend coming here for any type of occasion.

It’s not your typical flowershop. It’s more elegant looking, they have sexy flower arrangements, different concepts, not cheap.

This is the former location of Flashy Trash (RIP). The front part is one of the coolest looking storefronts for a flowershop I’ve seen, with great quotes by Emerson and Neruda painted on the walls. It’s almost too sparse, as they could use more variety. But the selections are pretty unique, which is nice. The back part is used for X/​A, the private event agency, which also has space for catering.
