Where do I start? 2018-06-11T16:10:52+00:00

Firstly, it’s important to know your venue and theme, you want everything to flow and come together to create an overall feel. Next, have your dress sorted so I can advise what style of bouquet will be best suited. From here, you can either work with flowers as a priority, and match the bridesmaid dresses accordingly, or vice versa and we can design the flowers to match the dresses.

Once your colour theme is decided, jump onto google or Pinterest and start a collection of photos that show the style, colour scheme and flowers you prefer. We can work from there!

How do I know what is in season? 2018-06-11T16:19:08+00:00

If you have a particular flower you want to include, I will happily let you know its availability. Otherwise there is a seasonal flower guide on the contact page where you can see popular flower choices for each season.

Can I request specific flowers? 2018-06-11T16:19:35+00:00

Absolutely. I love to ensure the flowers you have on the day are representative of you, and if there is a certain flower that is sentimental, I’d love to know about it!

I do my best to accommodate with favourite or preferred flowers, however please note that due to reasons like availability and quality, they cannot always be guaranteed.

How do I know if my colour scheme works? 2018-06-11T16:20:01+00:00

That’s where I come in, colour is my speciality! I’ve studied and trained in design and have an eye for balancing colour. If you send me over your ideas or some inspirational photos, I’d love to go over colour palette options with you.

Can I change my mind once we have decided on flowers? 2018-06-11T16:27:08+00:00

Yes, if you have a sudden change of heart, or the colours just aren’t working, we can look at a different concept. Please note there is a small fee of $20 per quote if a new concept needs to be designed. Changes can be made up to 3 weeks prior to the event day.

How far in advance do I need to book? 2018-06-11T16:27:37+00:00

Generally speaking, the more time you give, the better! Firstly, to ensure I am available for your date. Secondly, it allows time to brainstorm ideas and ensure you have looked at all of your options before deciding on your final designs.

How do I lock in my date? 2018-06-11T16:28:03+00:00

To secure your date, a booking fee of 25% is to be made. Full payment is required 3 weeks prior to your wedding or event date.

Do you offer a wedding package? 2018-06-11T16:28:59+00:00

Yes, my packages can be found under the Weddings tab. The packages are designed for those that would like the slightly easier option of deciding a colour palette and then allowing me to match the flowers accordingly. There is a variety of options that can cover as much or as little of your wedding day as you like, and to suit a range of budgets.

Otherwise we can design your wedding together! I love to work with couples and talk through flower preference, style, colour etc to create a bespoke design and come up with an overall concept. This doesn’t necessarily make it more expensive, it does depend on your vision, but I find it to be a lovely personal, and unique experience.

What if I have a small budget? 2018-06-11T16:29:24+00:00

Please don’t think you are any less important! I love flowers and I love weddings, regardless of the size. Just let me know what budget you have in mind and I will be able to design accordingly or recommend one of the wedding packages that might be suitable.
