Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Crystal Lake, IA

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

I absolutely loved my experience using Flower Moxie. I was nervous about doing my own wedding flowers at first, but their team made me so comfortable. I was even able to do the grounded floral arch I wanted and my own bouquets and boutonnieres. Alexa helped me add flowers to my order and made sure everything was perfect for my big day. Thank you so much, Alexa! I'll be sure to refer all my friends to Flower Moxie!!

  • Serves Crystal Lake, IA

Believe it or not, we often have people ask if our pictures throughout our website are showing a mix of fresh and faux and…no they aren’t! Although fresh florals are pretty, we are totally in love with poser-blooms all the way here and that’s what we design 100% of our orders with.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the absolute best experience with The Faux Bouquets. The flowers were absolutely stunning for my wedding. The owner, Brittany, was so kind and even called me to make sure my wedding wouldn't be affected by Hurricane Helene. Thankfully, my area was not affected, but I just really felt that was a special kindness that needs to be called out. But again, the quality of the bouquets, micro sprays and greenery was so great and photographed so well! And all at a fraction of the cost of real flowers that would have just been thrown away at the end of the night! The delivery and return process couldn't have been simpler! And I loved my husband and I got to customize and keep my bouquet and his boutonniere during a promotional add-on! Thank you again, Brittany and The Faux Bouquets, for helping make our wedding so beautiful!

Jen was AMAZING to work with! When it came to flowers for my wedding, I had NO IDEA what I wanted. She was very patient with me and helped talk me through my vision. She gave me flowers to pick from, talked about how big I wanted my bouquet and how much greenery I wanted, and then when I could find colors I liked in swatches, she color-matched the colors I wanted from an inspo pic I found online! She was very professional and patient with me, even when my plans changed or I needed to add to my order.  I am not the best at putting together a bouquet. I am also someone who likes control, especially when it came to planning my wedding. I was thankful that I was able to give Jen the reins, tell her what I wanted, and watch her make my dreams come true. When I first saw my flowers, I was speechless. She truly did make my floral dreams come true, and now I get to keep my bouquet for the rest of my life! A wooden flower bouquet from Jen is the way to go!

Hiring Britt as our videographer was honestly one of the best decisions we made during wedding planning. I was a bridesmaid a wedding that Britt shot a year before my wedding, so I’ve had the pleasure of working with him as both a bridesmaid and Bride. He is honestly such a breath of fresh air to have around! He is so kind and truly makes everyone around him and in front of the camera feel so good. He also captured the most special moments of the day - the videos he put together are truly incredible. I can’t believe some of the moments he captured during my wedding day, there are some moments in our video that I truly didn’t even know he was around! Our highlight film also tells the perfect story of our day and my husband and I literally can’t stop watching it. He also made a video for our ceremony, a video for our speeches, a video teaser, and even one we can share on tiktok! How fun! I could not be more please with all the work he put in to our wedding day and into creating the most gorgeous videos. If you haven’t already, absolutely hire Britt to capture your big day!!! I promise you won’t regret it!!!

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

DJ Obie “The Hype Specialist” rocked our wedding reception! The name does not lie! He got people dancing, learning new moves, playing games, and most importantly, he brought people together through song and dance. It was very special to see people getting down, letting loose, and smiling. I even sent DJ Obie choreography for a group dance, and he took the time to learn it and dance with us! If you have the opportunity to have him deejay your wedding or special event, take it! You will not regret it.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

I’m Haverlee, (hay-verlee), solo parent of three wild things. My photography career was birthed from many years of pain. My life derailed and everything felt unstable and uncertain. The more difficult things became, the more I clung to small moments of beauty. When things felt dark, I clung to the light. And I could always find light in people and in nature. Focusing on others instead of my own dark days brought me joy every time without fail. I always knew I was creative but it took me a while to find my niche! As I ventured into photography, everything fell into place. It was as if I already knew the language, I just had to find the words.

There is no one in the world who does it like Haverlee. Haverlee was my family photographer growing up, she did my Mom’s maternity photos, she did my senior photos, and now my wedding photos. There is something really special about receiving photos that bring you back to moments you don’t want to forget, and that’s exactly what she captures- every single time. I’m thankful for the ways she doesn’t create staged photos, but captures genuine moments. I couldn’t recommend a photographer more than her, and am absolutely convinced I won’t ever go with another photographer!

Check out our FB or Youtube for HUNDREDS of weddings we shot in the past.

From the start, 505 Media Company's communication was fast, efficient, and thorough. Their work is simply incredible, top-notch photography and videography. They personally captured all of our most important details, and made us feel so comfortable throughout the day. We enjoyed having them there, and they were so sweet and kind to our whole family. Leading up to the wedding, they were incredibly thorough, asking all the right questions to ensure they focused on the things that mattered most to us. Even with our small micro-wedding, they knew exactly what they were doing and kept our timeline on track while allowing us to fully enjoy every moment. We couldn't be happier with the incredible service and value 505 Media Company provided on our special day.

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

Steven was incredible from initial contact to follow-up after the event. He works with you to choose a package that fits your videography needs and budget. He is down-to-earth and makes you feel like he and his team are just old friends hanging out with you throughout the day. His videography style and music choices drew us to him in the first place, and he did not disappoint. He captured every magical detail, and we're so thankful to have chosen Birchfields.

Hi, I’m Heather! (that's me on the left) I'm a wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing the genuine moments and raw emotions that make each wedding day so special. I’ve always been drawn to storytelling through photography, and over the years, I’ve developed a style that combines artistry with authenticity. My goal is to not just take pictures, but to tell the unique love story of each couple I work with, from the grand moments to the quiet, intimate details. My husband is a wedding videographer. So, if you are also looking for video, look no further!

From the moment we first reached out to HEARTS in FOCUS, we were impressed by their great communication. They were quick to respond to our inquiries and very helpful in answering all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, the HEARTS in FOCUS team was professional, efficient, and discreet, capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. The final photos were absolutely stunning and we felt we received great value for the cost of their services. As an LGBTQ couple, we were grateful to work with a vendor who was inclusive and celebrated our love. We highly recommend HEARTS in FOCUS to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Michelle helped me out after my previous hair for my wedding cancelled on me fairly close to my wedding day! I had a large wedding party and she was flexible in working with another hair stylist on site to make sure all my girls looked and felt beautiful! Everyone LOVED their hair. Some even didn't know what they wanted and she gave great recommendations based on their hair. She went above and beyond when a couple of my girls who has their hair done by someone else off site didn’t love their hair, so she last minute helped them out and fixed it so they were happy with their hair! Cannot recommend Michelle enough!

Thanks for checking out Voigt Media, I hope you enjoy what you see, I would love to capture your love story!

Awarded Best of Zola
Speechless. The first word that comes to mind...not only when watching our beautiful wedding video but when thinking about Josh himself. He truly felt like family at our wedding which made me feel so relaxed and comfortable due to his genuine, personable nature. He took time before the wedding to get to know both me and my husband's story as well as asked questions regarding my husband's four boys that would be involved. I could tell he had listened so intently because he captured our family in such a perfect way. Our wedding would not have been the same without Josh. His video that he created told our story, showed the love and devotion between my husband and I, and all the fun in between with family and friends. I HIGHLY recommend Voigt Media to make your wedding an even more special day.
