Wedding flower FAQs
When should I organise my wedding flowers?
It's best to book your florist as soon as you have your venue and date confirmed to ensure availability.
How much will my wedding flowers cost?
Costs depend on your chosen flowers, style, and colour scheme. We offer guide prices to give you an idea of the range. Quotes will include VAT, materials, labour, and logistics (delivery, set-up, and item collection).
Do you have a minimum spend for wedding flowers?
We don’t have a minimum spend but offer different design services based on your budget:
- Pre-design: A relaxed brief and seasonal approach with lower starting prices than bespoke work.
- Bespoke wedding flowers: For budgets under £1,500, suitable for simpler weddings. Includes a £50 design fee.
- Luxury bespoke wedding flowers: For budgets over £1,500, ideal for larger celebrations or special installations.
Note: Bespoke designs may be subject to supplier minimum order quantities
Do I still have to pay the 'Bespoke Simplicity' design fee if I only want a bouquet and buttonhole?
It depends. If you have an image to replicate, we can provide a quote for that. If you want a consultation and a custom design, it falls under the Bespoke Simplicity service. Alternatively, you can select flowers from our shop 2 days before your wedding, with an additional £15 charge for a bridal bouquet (includes ribbon and florist time) and a £5 charge for buttonholes.
How does the bespoke process work?
Initial consultation
We’ll start with a consultation call to understand your vision, priorities and plans, and to confirm which of our wedding flower design services is the best fit for you.
Design & quotation
From there, we’ll create a bespoke floral design board along with a detailed quotation, bringing your ideas to life.
Refinement
We’ll work closely with you to refine the details until everything feels just right.
Securing your date
A £250 deposit secures your wedding in our diary, with the remaining balance due six weeks before your wedding day.
Planning, logistics, prep, delivery & set-up
Leave the rest to us — we’ll take care of everything.
How do I book my wedding flowers with Gardenia?
To secure your booking, a non-refundable deposit of £250 and a signed contract are required. This deposit will be deducted from your final invoice.
When will I have to pay the balance for my wedding flowers?
The final balance (minus the £250 deposit) is due 6 weeks before your wedding.
Can I have a mock-up of my wedding flowers in advance?
We can arrange for mock-ups to be made at any time before your wedding (providing seasonal flowers are available). All mock-ups are charged at full price and may be subject to minimum order quantities.
Why are wedding flowers by Gardenia a sustainable choice?
Our sustainable weddings focus on responsible design and sourcing, holding ourselves accountable for thoughtful waste management and ensuring that we are good to the people around us.
Sustainable Floral Design - We replace floral foam - a product made from microplastics - with wool and moss. While this approach takes more effort, we’re committed to doing what’s best for the environment.
Eco-Friendly Packaging – As a business we use home-compostable and home-recyclable packaging exclusively. This is very different to being commercially compostable, which isn’t a process that is accessible to the general public, or biodegradable - even harmful materials biodegrade eventually, but they’re still harmful materials.
Recycling and Reusing Materials - Any plastic from third-party suppliers is reused or recycled through our partnership with FirstMile. For the rare occasions when non-compostable materials are necessary, we ensure they’re repurposed. We’ve proudly maintained a zero-waste-to-landfill record since 2017.
Green Waste Management - All of our green waste is processed through CompostUK, turning it into nutrient-rich compost used in British agriculture and horticulture.
Supporting People and Communities - Sustainability isn’t just about the planet - it’s about people too. Our team, suppliers, and local community are at the heart of our sustainability initiatives.
Learn about our eco-friendly practices and commitment to sustainability through our Petals. Planet. Promise. links below. Together, we can create a wedding that’s both unforgettable and kind.
