Question 1

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK YOU?

Accepted Answer

I do tend to get booked up quite far in advance (as do many suppliers in the wedding and event industry), and I absolutely hate having to say no to people because of timing. I always recommend that as soon as have your date set and your venue booked, you should send that initial enquiry to get the ball rolling.

Question 2

DO YOU DO MORE THAN ONE WEDDING A DAY?

Accepted Answer

No. Infact in many cases you wedding will be the only wedding I will work on that week. Your wedding will be my sole focus, and I only take on a limited number of weddings each year to make sure I give each one my full creativity and attention.

Question 3

DO I NEED TO SOURCE ANYTHING ELSE TO COMPLETE A SET-UP?

Accepted Answer

No you don’t. I price my work in such a way that it includes all prop work, florals, designing, delivery, set up and collection.

Question 4

WE’RE NOT SURE HOW TO THINK ABOUT BUDGETING FOR OUR STYLING, BUT WE KNOW WE WANT A ‘WOW’. DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS?

Accepted Answer

I totally understand that pricing your styling and flowers feels like a bit of a minefield when you’ve never done it before (and bouquets from the supermarket just can’t be used as a comparison here I’m afraid). Every quote I send out is totally bespoke, depending on the scope, size and intricacy of your designs, the stem count and varieties of flowers you wish for me to use, and a host of other factors. I will say that my minimum spend is £1,500 but couples can spend up to £5,000 or more on styling, particularly if I am also supplying all the floristry. I will always strive to work within your budget and suggest key pieces that make the greatest impact if you feel you need to rein it in.

Question 5

DO YOU HAVE A MINIMUM SPEND?

Accepted Answer

Incase you skipped past it in the above answer, yes we do, it’s £1,500.

Question 6

WHAT IF I HAVE AN IDEA THAT YOU HAVEN’T DONE BEFORE, CAN I SUGGEST THESE TO YOU?

Accepted Answer

Oh my goodness, hell yes! I adore creating new and interesting set up and styling ideas. You only need to ask. What did we do in the world before Pinterest, eh? It’s an absolutely marvellous tool to gather inspiration and get ideas, but I do draw the line at directly creating anything you’ve found on there. I will use it as inspiration, certainly, but you deserve wedding styling that is unique. It is my job to take your ideas and the things you love and turn them into something new that’s never been seen before. Your wedding isn’t going to be an imitation of any other, so why should your styling be?

Question 7

DO YOU COLLECT EVERYTHING OF YOURS AFTER OUR WEDDING? WHAT HAPPENS TO THE FLOWERS?

Accepted Answer

Yes, don’t worry, you won’t be left with needing to leap about up ladders at midnight on your wedding night! Tidy up is included in your quote and usually happens the day after the wedding (in agreement with your venue). We can discuss options for what happens to the flowers in the form of your bouquets and table flowers (minus my vases, urns and vessels etc) – if you would like to take them home, they’re yours. However to avoid your home being overrun with blooms, I can arrange for them to be donated to charities, local hospices or old people’s homes to give others a splash of lovely colour. The choice is totally up to you.
