Wedding Flowers FAQ

The sooner you contact us the better, especially if your wedding will be taking place during the busy summer period. Six or more months prior to your wedding date is best, however we can work to a shorter timeframe if necessary.

We currently do not take bookings more than 12 months in advance.

This is a question that always puts us on the spot, as every wedding is different.

For information about our base-level pricing, we recommend you have a read through our Wedding Flowers Pricing page. Once you have read through the guide you can submit a quote request and we will get in touch to arrange a consultation.

We get this one a lot.

We understand that wedding flowers seem expensive when compared to what you have probably spent on a quick bunch of flowers from the supermarket, a florist, or even us in the past. However, it is important to remember that when it comes to wedding flowers you are not purchasing a product, you are ordering a service.

There is no conspiracy, no automatic upcharge just because you mentioned a wedding - wedding and event flowers cost more simply because they require more work. From the initial consultation and early design stages, through to ordering and preparing the flowers, constructing the final product, and setting up on the day - not to mention all the logistics involved in this process - wedding orders take a great deal of time, labour, planning, and care on our end, as do flowers for any other event.

Take your bridal bouquet, for example. While your everyday bouquet gets taken home to be placed in a vase, wedding bouquets need to be carefully styled to look right from all angles when being held, while also being sturdy enough in construction to keep their shape as they get jostled about in your hands. The flowers used in wedding bouquets also have to be incredibly fresh, as they need to last all day out of water.

Flowers are seasonal and as such prices can change drastically depending on the time of year. It is also worth noting that the flowers you see on Pinterest, Instagram, and in bridal magazines are typically premium blooms. Popular flowers such as peonies, roses, and proteas can carry a price-tag of up to $30 per stem - and even more if out of season. If you want your flowers to look exactly like that beautiful Pinterest photo, chances are it is going to set you back.

The best way to keep costs down is to be flexible, the more you can leave things up to us, the better we will be able to fit into your budget.
