Question 1

Full-Service Floral Design vs. À La Carte Florals

Accepted Answer

À La Carte Florals are perfect for couples who already have a general vision and want to select specific floral pieces based on a color palette and order needs. This option focuses on beautifully crafted arrangements—such as bouquets, centerpieces, and ceremony accents—without in-depth design development, mock-ups, or on-site styling. It offers flexibility and simplicity for celebrations that don’t require large-scale installations or extensive production.

Full-Service Floral Design is a comprehensive, concierge-level experience designed for couples who want their flowers to shape the atmosphere of their wedding day. This includes strategic design planning, venue walkthroughs, digital mock-ups, customized proposals, large-scale installations, delivery, full setup, repurposing, and breakdown. It is ideal for couples seeking immersive floral environments, statement pieces, and a highly collaborative creative process from start to finish.
