Frequently Asked Questions
Wedding FAQs
How far in advance do we need to book?
Eight months to a year is a perfect time to book your wedding florals with us. Of course, you can secure the date much earlier than that, but we won’t be able to give you a fixed quote that far out as market prices will likely change too much. If you’re booking last minute, that’s fine too so long as we’re available.
What do I need to do to get the ball rolling?
Book a Zoom consultation using this link. It is imperative that we talk face to face so that Sally can really understand what you’ve planned so far and what you’re looking for.
Do you do packages?
No, I passionately believe that each wedding should be unique – no off the peg packages here!
Do you have a minimum spend?
Yes, our minimum spend is £500. If in doubt, please just ask- we will do our best to accommodate you.
How much do flowers cost?
Flowers usually make up 10% of your total wedding budget. The cost of designs vary considerably depending on the look you’re going for and the flowers you’d like to include but as guide bridal bouquets start from £150, bridesmaid bouquets from £75, buttonholes from £10, table designs from £60 and large designs and installations from £250.
Do I need to pay up front?
You need to pay the booking fee of £250 to secure the date (this comes off your final instalment), the rest can be paid in two instalments, 12 and 8 weeks before the wedding.
Will I be one of many weddings each week?
Absolutely not – we offer an exclusive service as we believe you and your wedding deserve our undivided attention in the run up to your big day and on the day itself.
Do we need to collect the flowers for our wedding?
No, your flowers will be delivered to your venue and your venue will be personally dressed by me. The cost for delivery and set up will be included in your quote.
I’m not sure what designs I need at my venue?
Don’t worry, once you book with me, we can do a venue visit together to check the plans will work and ensure that you have everything you need to make your venue look fabulous.
What if my designs need moving during the day?
Because we only work on one wedding at a time, I can stay on site to move things around as required.
What if we am getting ready somewhere else?
Wedding party flowers can be delivered to a different venue of your choice. Multiple drops can be arranged.
What will happen at the end of the wedding?
When you’ve finished partying, I will ensure that everything is cleared away, leaving behind any flowers and designs that you want to keep. I liaise with your venue to do this at a time that suits them.
Do you just do flowers?
No, we have a range of vases, lanterns, pedestals, candles and arches that are available to hire.
What if we haven’t chosen our colours yet?
That’s fine (so long as your wedding isn’t a week away!). Understanding your style and vision is the first step. Colours can be decided later or even changed until quite close to the wedding.
What if we need lots and lots of flowers?
Then you’re our type of couple! If needed, we will bring in trusted, trained freelancers who will help create designs under Sally’s close supervision. Bridal bouquets will always be made by Sally.
