Making one arrangement is one thing, but making 20-30 of the same thing—on top of everything else—in a short time span? That’s a whole different ballgame. We love it, but caffeine and treats are a must to keep us going!

Read MoreFirst of all, congratulations on your engagement! This is such an exciting time in your life, and as wedding florists, we know how special it is to begin dreaming about the day you say, "I do." Whether you’ve had Pinterest boards for years or are just starting to envision your big day, we’re here to help guide you through the process of planning your wedding florals.
One of the most common questions we get is: When should I book my wedding florist? With inquiries coming in earlier and earlier, it can feel like a race to lock in your vendors. The truth is, there’s no perfect timeline. We’ve worked with couples as close as three months before their wedding and as far as 18 months out. While we recommend reaching out early to secure your date (especially if your wedding is during peak season), the most important thing is to feel ready.

That’s why we always say: go for it when it comes to your bouquet! Beyond being a gorgeous statement piece, your bouquet is an opportunity to tell a story and infuse it with memories, traditions, and your unique personality. Here are a few thoughtful ways to make it truly yours.
