This store is simply enchanting! It’s so much more than a floral store, from the whimsical stone figurines, manly mermaids, and beautiful plants. There was something new everywhere I looked. But best of all was the gorgeous arrangement my husband bought me that featured my favorite flower- ranunculus! 🤩 10/10 I’ll definitely be back again!

I’ve ordered arrangement in the past from leaf that have all been beautiful. This week we asked them to make us an arrangement to go around my father’s urn for his service and it is exactly what we hoped for and more. They were so helpful and professional. Did a wonderful job, thank you Leaf!! 💙 …

From the moment I told Matthew my wedding colors were going to be centered around the labradorite stone, he knew exactly what to do for our wedding day. The bouquets were so beautiful, and each flower he chose worked so well with the others. I loved the more natural shape and the way the colors matched with the greens and blues of labradorite was so perfect. The centerpieces at the reception were also gorgeous, and they brightened up the room in a way I never expected. But my husband and I completely fell in love with the arch they created for our ceremony. We didn't give Matthew much guidance, since I couldn't find any arch designs online that I connected with. I just told him I wanted something natural that fit with the labradorite theme. So when we saw what he put together, we were amazed and so happy we chose Leaf for our wedding day. I highly recommend them to others!

In planning our wedding, my fiancé and I wanted to go with a florist who had the ability to create artistic, unique, and romantic floral arrangements to match the natural beauty of our outdoor venue. I went on google and started searching florists in Akron. Leaf’s website caught my eye. Immediately I noticed that it wasn’t your average florist. Their stylish vision was evident in my first few clicks on their website. My fiancé and I set up a meeting with Matthew. After sending him photos of bouquet I was drawn to, we met for a brief sit down conversation with him. It wasn’t long before he was showing us flower options and explaining what would be in season and grown at their farm. We left the shop that day excited; we knew we could trust him, and what he would create for us. We were proud to be supporting a local business. Fast forward to our wedding day. I stopped by the florist to pick up my bouquet and boutonnières for my fiancé and Dad. One look at my bouquet and I gasped. It was exquisite! Absolutely a breathtaking work of art. I cannot say enough about the different flowers, textures, colors and greenery he used. It felt one of a kind. And the boutonnières, although similar to my bouquet in style and concept, were original and simple pieces of floral art in and of themselves. I’d recommend Matthew and the other florists at Leaf for any of your floral needs!

Words can't even express how much I love and appreciate Matthew and the entire staff at Leaf. They took our vision for our wedding and completely blew us and our guests away with the final results. Their attention to detail is unreal. We received so many compliments on every single detail that had their touch on it. We can't thank you enough for everything. You truly made our day more beautiful! Love, Mr. + Mrs. Boltz

I absolutely love this place-the fun gifts, gorgeous plants, incredible decor and such a welcoming and friendly staff. Today, we went for one of their classes-wreath design, and they knocked it out of the park! Mimosa's, coffee, Christmas beer and delicious sweets were offered. The owner, Matthew is an incredibly sweet and talented instructor. We can't wait to vo back.

Five-star wedding recognition to the so many talented artists and event specialists like the team at Leaf Home and Bloom! Mathew, Ally and team were masterful at taking my daughter's "enchanted forest" inspiration and making it come to life. Whether they walked into the barn or the tent, guests were in awe saying words like, "magical", "perfect", "whimsical" and "the prettiest thing I've ever seen". They literally had to stop to take it all in. LEAF doesn't limit their vision to flowers; they incorporated live trees, greenery, shrubs, twinkle lights and even random branches from their blueberry bushes, with ripe blueberries on full display. The large scale of their plantings made our big spaces feel cozy. Centerpieces were created with live moss as the base and her wedding cake stand was a live tree stump. It was truly outdoor elegance at its finest. And their linen selections were pieces of art. Who knew you could mix and match colors and textures? Thank you so much! The outcome was fabulous and the process to get there was so much fun. It will forever be a five-star memory! Lisa Chapman-Smith

Phenomenal floral and gift shop! Matthew, the owner, and his team are incredibly personable and truly talented. It’s no surprise they’ve already opened a second location—this place is something special. I’ve purchased plants and even taken one of their floral arrangement classes, and every experience has been wonderful. Highly recommend supporting this standout local business. Thank you to the whole team!

What a delightful recommendation! I needed 3 small winter bouquets for a Christmas gift at a lunch gathering. Perfectly done. I set a price point for each and I was more than pleased with the results! Loved browsing too. Lots of lovely merchandise. (The vase in the photo was a vase at home)

I cannot say enough good things about Leaf! I called last minute—literally an hour before homecoming—and they created the most beautiful corsage and boutonniere I’ve ever seen. From the moment I called, they were polite, ready to help, and incredibly accommodating. The turnaround time, quality, and attention to detail were unmatched. You can tell they truly love what they do. The shop itself is such a gem in Akron’s Highland Square—so warm, welcoming, and full of beautiful things. 10/10 experience. I’m already looking for a reason to go back! 🌸💐✨
