After meeting with my wife and I, Bukky offered to do our wedding pro bono, as she mentioned she wanted to add The Armour House to her portfolio. While this initially seemed generous, her focus on how the venue would benefit her business made us uneasy. Based on our experience, I would not recommend hiring Bukky as a planner or florist. The fees charged do not reflect the level of service we received. She lacks accountability and did not treat us with kindness and respect. On the day of our wedding, our décor did not arrive until 4:30pm—only 15 minutes before guests began arriving. Exquisite was still setting up as our guests entered, which felt disruptive and unprofessional. Several décor items we had agreed upon were also missing, and the overall design did not match the inspiration photos we had shared in advance. In the days following the wedding, we did not receive any communication from Bukky about what went wrong, nor did she proactively offer a refund for the missing items. As newlyweds, we had to reach out ourselves to ask for answers. It was extremely disappointing to have to chase updates rather than receive transparency and accountability. I also did not feel that Bukky prioritized us as a couple. From our perspective, much of her focus seemed to be on how our wedding could benefit her business rather than on creating the experience we had envisioned. This left us feeling overlooked and unsupported on our day. Exquisite was the only vendor on our wedding day that we had a negative experience with. There are many décor companies or planners that provide far better service and peace of mind—please don’t make the mistake we did by investing here. I am sharing this review based on my direct experience working with Bukky as a wedding vendor. I noticed that she has attempted to have my negative reviews removed from multiple wedding platforms, which I believe reflects a lack of accountability rather than a willingness to improve. In my opinion, transparency is essential in the wedding industry. Not every experience is going to be perfect—and that’s okay. What matters is how vendors handle challenges and respond to feedback. I know I’m not the only one who has had a disappointing experience with Bukky. If you are considering working with her, I strongly recommend reading the 1-star reviews on The Knot. My experience aligns closely with many of the concerns shared there.
Unforgettable!!! In a good way!

Exquisite, Our Wedding At Its Best

We first met Exquisite Events & Floral Design and Bukky Garcia a year before our wedding at the Bridal Expo in Itasca, IL. Bukky’s booth immediately caught our attention—not just because of its elegant setup, but also because of the warmth and professionalism she exuded. From the moment we began speaking with her, it was clear she had a deep passion for what she does, paired with a level of expertise that made us feel instantly at ease. One of the first things that drew us to Bukky was her cultured approach and understanding. As fellow Nigerians, we bonded over our shared background, and this connection was pivotal for us. My wife and I had always envisioned a beautiful Nigerian-American wedding, but we weren’t quite sure how to blend the two cultures seamlessly. Being the first in our immediate families to host a formal wedding, we felt a bit overwhelmed with incorporating Nigerian traditions and customs into the day. Bukky, however, understood our vision right away and reassured us that she would help us create something truly special. While we had already started gathering a few essentials for the big day, Bukky and Exquisite Events & Floral Design stepped in and took it to a whole new level. From coordinating the logistics to fine-tuning every detail, Bukky handled it all with remarkable efficiency. She didn’t just come on board as a wedding planner and designer—she became the guiding force that brought our dream wedding to life. As a groom, I was completely blown away by her attention to detail, impeccable organization, and the way she communicated every step of the process. It wasn’t just about decorations or logistics; it was about her ability to take our ideas and elevate them beyond what we ever thought possible. Bukky shattered every expectation we had, turning our vision into something truly magical. Her expertise and dedication ensured that nothing was overlooked, and her cadence and poise throughout the planning process were second to none. The day of the wedding was nothing short of breathtaking. Bukky and her team transformed our venue in a way that left us and our guests speechless. Even the venue staff remarked that they had never seen their space look the way it did that day. It was as though she had taken a blank canvas and painted the most beautiful fairytale scene. Every arrangement, every detail, every touch was executed to perfection. But beyond her incredible work, Bukky gave us something even more meaningful—family. What started as a professional relationship quickly grew into something much deeper. She genuinely cared about us, not just as clients but as individuals. Even now, long after the wedding, we still check in with her from time to time because that bond remains strong. Looking back, we are beyond grateful to have had Bukky and Exquisite Events & Floral Design by our side for one of the most important days of our lives. She didn’t just help us plan a wedding; she created an experience we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for someone who can take your vision and make it a reality while surpassing your wildest expectations, look no further than Bukky Garcia. Our wedding was a dream come true, and we owe so much of that to her extraordinary talent and heart.

Bukky and her team did an AMAZING job on our wedding day. The day went flawlessly. Exquisite Events & Floral Design handled our wedding planning and all the decor as well. Some things I really appreciated were Bukky's professionalism and her consistency throughout the whole process. She was beyond helpful, experienced, and knowledgeable, especially since we had no experience and really no external guidance. She gave us a calming feeling throughout the entire process. We also loved working with her whole team! On the day of the wedding, she had her team split up, one with my wife and one with me, while Bukky ran the show at the venue. They were great resources for us and worked seamlessly with our videography/photography team. Overall, we are SO grateful and blessed to have been recommended to Exquisite Events & Florals. It’s a 10/10 for anyone looking for assistance.
