Do you offer wedding planning or interior design services in additional to florals?
As we specialize in centerpieces, bridal floral design, and floral installations, we do not offer additional wedding planning or interior design services such as placement settings, cake toppers, wedding favors, gift baskets, table linens, chandeliers, catering design, furniture, lighting, signage, tenting, dessert displays, escort card displays, floor plans, collateral, tabletop customization, etc.
Are you able to accommodate events of all sizes?
Yes. Our scope ranges from single centerpieces for intimate dinners to elaborate floral displays for extravagant weddings and everywhere in between.
Do you have a minimum for wedding services?
Wedding florals are highly personalized and the cost is dependent on a variety of factors such as the number and size of bouquets, centerpieces, and installations, flower type and seasonality, and the complexity of the design. As we offer floral design services for weddings of all sizes ranging from the intimate to the extravagant, we do not have a minimum as such but recommend reviewing the aforementioned pricing guidelines. Elopement packages (which include a bridal bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages) generally fall in the $500-$1000 range depending on the number of pieces required and full-service wedding packages (which include ceremony installations and reception centerpieces in addition to personal flowers) typically start at $2500. Most clients hosting a 100-person wedding invest a minimum of $5000 in the florals. We are also glad to accommodate orders for individual pieces à la carte (such as bridal bouquets and boutonnieres for City Hall ceremonies) - please note that we do have a $150 minimum for bridal bouquets.
