Frequently Asked Questions
How much do wedding flowers cost?
The Knot.com recommends spending about 8% of your total wedding budget on flowers. The price is also dependent on the amount and types of flowers used. Using flowers that are in season can also help reduce the total cost of wedding flowers.
I have a small floral budget; do you have a price minimum?
We try to work with weddings of all sizes and budgets. In order to give our customers the best service possible we only accept one event per day, and therefore require a minimum order of $1000.
