Frequently Asked Questions…
-
As soon as possible but definitely within 4-6 months- clients can always place a deposit to hold a specific date and decide important design details later on in the timeline as guest count is completed.
If the date is during peak wedding season (May-June, Sept-Nov.),then definitely the earlier the better.
-
Currently I do not require a minimum spend, but for full service florals you should expect to spend at least around $3,000.00 for simple floral designs for an average sized wedding (150 guests). Keep in mind the final spend is very dependent upon the amount of designs requested and florals used.
-
For a full service wedding or event the following is included:
Detailed portfolio with mood board, design meetings as needed (virtual or in person based on location and availability of both parties), virtual mock-ups, day of delivery, setup, and breakdown.
Communication will be provided on a regular basis via my Client Management System- Honeybook. There will be regular communication in the beginning of us deciding to work together to settle on a design style and budget. After that, don’t be alarmed if you do not hear anything until we get closer to the day of. This does not mean you have lost your spot or we have forgotten about you! Most of the real work begins 2-3 months out which includes making sure flowers are ordered and available, creating design recipes and virtual mock ups, prepping containers and any rentals, confirming guest counts and any other important final details, and of course designing and delivering all florals.

YES! This is your wedding. You should have what you like (within reason). I will help guide you with your floral choices to make sure we are staying in season and on budget.
-
I have a wealth of knowledge on floral selection and will do my best to find a good substitute with your approval. Out of season florals or unavailability can happen- although I have not had an issue with the designs still coming together beautifully as long as a good substitute is used.
The best way to avoid any disappointment in this area is If a flower MUST be used, make sure your wedding falls within that flower’s season.
-
Yes- delivery, setup, and breakdown is included in the full service package.
-
Yes- a deposit of $500.00 is required to hold your date. Payment will be due in full 1 week before the event date. If payment is not paid in full with no communication, services will not be provided.
Example payment schedule:
Non-refundable retainer- $500.00 to be paid within 10 days of signing contract.
50% of the total proposed amount due (less the non-refundable retainer) 90 days before event date.
Remaining balance paid in full 7 days before event date.
-
Contract cancellations made before final payment due and 30 days prior to the wedding date will receive a refund of monies paid, less the non-refundable retainer. Cancellations made less than 30 days prior to the event date will receive no refund.
If the event is postponed or rescheduled, services contracted can be applied to a new date if available. If you are rescheduling less than 30 days prior to your event, there will be no refund. If you decide to reschedule your event more than 30 days prior to your date, I am happy to do so if the date is available.
