What Factors Impact Modern Wedding Flower Pricing? 

  • Guest Count and Reception Size - this drives the number of tables you need for the reception, and therefore the number of arrangements.  

  • ​Flower Selections and Stem Count - Large arrangements filled with premium blooms (orchids, peonies, dahlias, ranunculus, etc) drive flower pricing to the upper end of the cost range.  If you are open to floral substitutions that maintain the overall color palette and floral aesthetic you desire, we can offer a solution at a more affordable price point. ​

  • ​Seasonality - If a flower is in season locally, it will help maximize the value of your budget.  E.g. a peony in June from Western NY is drastically different than a peony from Alaska in August.  ​
