Finding Eminence Farm

This a gorgeous little family owned farm. Audra is super knowledgeable and kind. I did a bouquet class and she taught me how to tie a better bow! You won't be disappointed!

I highly recommend Finding Eminence Farm for weddings! Audra does a great job of working with you to understand what you want and putting together beautiful bouquets and arrangements. She really listens to you and helps to guide you- without trying to up sell you. The fact that they grow their own flowers on the farm let’s you know that your bouquets and arrangements will be grown with care and not shipped all around and squished. I am so glad we chose finding eminence and a bit sad that I don’t live closer to buy flowers for other occasions- because I definitely would!

Audra made the most beautiful bouquets for me and my bridesmaid for my September wedding. Before the wedding I was very scatterbrained and told Audra I knew what I wanted but not really (I know super helpful). I knew that I wanted dahlias and Audra really helped me create a vision and walked me through all the flowers and colors that would tie everything together. She was very responsive throughout the planning process. On my wedding day, I was truly delighted to see the flowers because they were better than my imagination.

I also love the fact that the flowers came from her farm. If you follow the instagram page, you can even see the flowers being grown and all the hard work Audra puts in which made the flowers even more special.

I used Finding Eminence for my wedding and they were amazing. First, i love gardening and flowers so having fresh flowers was non negotiable, but i also didn't want to spend a crazy amount of money on them. Also, our venue was outdoors and didn't need tons of decorating. Audra was very transparent and sensitive to this during the entire process. She was the first of 5 florists i spoke with and she followed up patiently every few weeks until I finally made a decision. She explained a lot of details up front and was clear about what could be changed and what was set once we signed a contract. She was one of the easiest vendors to communicate with (in spite of the fact that she was the only one outside of the Chicago metro area where we live/had our wedding) and provided clear invoices, easy to understand emails, was happy to get on the phone when necessary, and set clear expectations about timelines and communication.

Also, the flowers were AMAZING. I gave pretty vague preferences - I wanted something colorful that had texture and included some dark pinks. I don't have professional photos yet and the ones below don't really do them justice, but they were fun and interesting (and LOCAL!). If you're considering using them for any kind of event, I 100% recommend it!

Audra was SO great to work with and my flowers were absolutely beautiful! She was very quick to get back to you with any concerns and made sure to get every detail needed to make my vision come to life!

I highly recommend Finding Eminence Farm for any of your floral needs. Audra was amazing to work with. Not only were our flowers beautiful beyond expectation, but she was so caring and flexible throughout the process. As someone who's wedding was twice canceled due to the pandemic, Audra was not only willing to be flexible but was also caring and understanding of the difficulty of the situation. She was truly a joy to work with. I would dedinitely recommend her to anyone.

We have contracted with Audra at Finding Eminence for several design projects for the Ecology Action Center. Her work is always creative with a great attention to detail, and we have been beyond pleased with the final products! She is a delight to work with.

I used Finding Eminence for my wedding flowers. Audra was a pleasure to work with. She always got back to me very quickly and answered all of my questions and concerns. She really paid attention to what I wanted and nailed it perfectly! I got so many compliments on my flowers for the wedding. They were stunning! I am so happy I chose them for my special day!

I love Finding Eminence Farm! I've gotten fresh flower bouquets from Audra multiple times, tulips, a mixed bouquet, and sunflowers. I'm always impressed with how long they last and the care she puts into her products. I've also attended weddings where she's done the flowers. They are stunning!

Everyone talks about heirloom vegetables, but what about heirloom flowers?!? The best fresh cut flowers in McLean County come from Finding Eminence Farms!
