Below, you’ll find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions — covering everything from consultations and bookings to delivery, event setup, and prop hire. We hope this helps you feel confident and excited about planning your next special occasion with us.
What services do you offer?
We specialise in bespoke floral styling for weddings, corporate events, private celebrations, and funerals.
Our services include full floral design, delivery, on-site setup, and optional pack-down, along with prop hire such as arches, stands, and vases to complete your event look.
How far in advance should I book?
For weddings and large events, we recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance to secure your date.
During busy seasons (spring and summer), early bookings are highly recommended as dates fill quickly.
Do you offer consultations?
Yes — we offer a free initial consultation where we discuss your event vision, colour palette, and floral preferences.
From there, we’ll create a tailored quote and design concept that reflects your style and budget.
Can you design florals to suit my event theme or colour palette?
Absolutely! Every event we style is customised to match your chosen theme, venue, and colour story.
We’ll source seasonal blooms and textures that complement your design while ensuring everything feels cohesive and intentional.
How do I get a quote?
You can book a free consultation through our website or contact us directly via email or phone.
We’ll provide a custom quote after learning more about your event style, size, and floral requirements.
What areas do you service?
We service Sydney and surrounding regions.
For large-scale weddings and corporate events, we may also travel to select regional areas upon request.
What types of flowers do you use?
We use a mix of fresh, preserved, and premium artificial blooms, depending on your event needs and styling preferences.
All flowers are hand-selected for quality and longevity to ensure your event looks flawless from start to finish.
Do you provide setup and pack-down on event day?
Yes — our team handles full delivery, styling, and installation on the day of your event.
We can also return for pack-down after the event if required, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
What happens if a flower type I request is unavailable?
Flowers are seasonal and subject to market availability.
If a specific bloom isn’t available, we’ll substitute with flowers of equal or greater value, keeping your colour palette and design style intact.
Can I hire props without booking floral styling?
Yes — we offer prop hire for stands, vases, urns, plinths, and other décor items.
Hire can be arranged independently or alongside your floral package.
What is your cancellation or refund policy?
For weddings and events, cancellations must be made at least 14 days prior to the event date for a refund (minus any costs already incurred).
Due to the perishable nature of flowers, refunds cannot be issued after floral preparation or delivery.
