With wedding season busier than ever, booking your wedding florist early is one of the smartest planning decisions you can make—especially if you’re dreaming of a bespoke, design-led floral experience.

Why Timing Matters

Many couples don’t realise that experienced florists often take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure quality and attention to detail. Once dates are gone, they’re gone—especially during high-demand months.

Booking your florist early gives you access to:

Your preferred florist before they book out
Time to collaborate on a unique, intentional design
Opportunities for venue visits, styling suggestions, and a refined creative process
Peace of mind as other vendors fall into place around the visual brief

Ideal Booking Timeline

We recommend booking your wedding florist during the following windows:

12 – 18 months out:
Best for weddings during Melbourne’s peak season (especially March and November, which tend to book out fast). This gives you full access to design conversations, styling integration, and the comfort of knowing you're in good hands.

6 – 9 months out:
Usually suitable for smaller weddings, weekday weddings, or elopements during off-peak times. Availability is more limited, but if you’re flexible on dates and scope, there are still beautiful options available.

What Happens After You Book?

At Botanical Quarter, our process is built to evolve with you. After securing your date:

We revisit and refine your proposal closer to the wedding
Mood boards and mock-ups are developed to bring the vision to life
Site visits help us plan for layout, installations, and any floral moments unique to your venue

And don’t worry—your vision doesn’t have to be locked in on day one. You can absolutely shift your styling direction, tweak colour palettes, or update floral preferences as your ideas evolve.
