Essential Questions for Choosing Your Wedding Florist

Booking your wedding florist is a big decision. Flowers can completely transform your day—setting the mood, elevating the styling, and adding a personal, visual story to your celebration. That’s why it’s so important to feel confident and aligned with the floral designer you choose.

Your consultation is the perfect time to get clarity on process, pricing, and style. Coming prepared with the right questions helps ensure you're choosing someone who not only gets your vision, but can execute it beautifully and stress-free.

Here are 10 helpful questions to ask during your floral consultation:

1. Are you available on our date?
   Start with the basics! Popular dates, especially during peak season, book out quickly.

2. What’s your minimum spend?
   Knowing this upfront helps you understand whether you're a good fit budget-wise, especially for full-service florists who offer more than just flowers.

3. Do you offer styling or stationery as well as flowers?
   Some florists (like us!) offer styling and on-the-day stationery too—streamlining the look and reducing your vendor list.

4. How do you describe your design style?
   This helps you understand whether their aesthetic matches yours—wild and romantic, minimal and modern, classic and timeless?

5. What’s included in your quote?
   Is delivery, setup, pack down, or hire items included? It’s important to understand what you’re getting so there are no surprises later.

6. Can we make changes after we book?
   Your vision may evolve—ask how flexible the process is after paying your deposit.

7. Do you provide setup and pack down?
   A must for stress-free logistics on the day.

8. Can we see examples of your work?
   Instagram is great, but a portfolio or full gallery shows range, scale, and quality.

9. What happens if a flower we want is unavailable?
   Seasonal shifts happen—understanding their substitution policy helps avoid disappointment.

10. When do you need final numbers?
    Knowing your timeline for confirming guest count or table numbers helps keep everything on track.

Bring these questions to your consult so you feel empowered and well-prepared. A good florist will welcome them—and appreciate your thoughtful planning.
