Flower Delivery- How early should you order flowers?
As a rule of thumb, you should get in touch with the florist for a special occasion at least a few days in advance, if you are ordering a single bouquet. If you plan on having it delivered, tack on a few more days!.
For the BIGGIES, (Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day) it is recommended to order flowers several weeks in advance to make sure the florist can prepare during the influx.
For a wedding or a big event that requires a lot of flowers and arrangements, you’ll want to give 5 months to a year in advance, depending on the order size, to guarantee availability. When planning a wedding, call florists shortly after nailing down a venue! They will appreciate the advance notice.
Why are bouquets so darn expensive?
You might be asking yourself why flower bouquets are so expensive. I tend to think of a bouquet as art. Some flower varieties are expensive due to their rarity and often require skill to arrange. If you’ve ever tried to arrange your own bouquet, you know what I’m talking about. Since flowers are perishable, they require careful storage and transportation. All in all, bouquets can be like art, and who can put a price on beauty?
What are the popular types of flower arrangements?
1. Bouquets: flowers bunched and arranged artistically
2. Garland: flowers, but on a string!
3. Centerpiece: like a bouquet, but meant to be in the middle of a table
4. Corsage: a tiny cluster of flowers meant for a dress or wrist!
5. Wreath: flowers, but in a circle!
6. Basket: flowers arranged in, you guessed it, a basket!
7. Posy: an adorably tiny bouquet meant to keep your pockets full.
8. Topiary: A unique arrangement crafted to appear like a tree or an animal.
9. Ikebana: Japanese flower arranging that puts an emphasis on minimalist composition.
10. Boutonniere: a tiny cluster of flowers meant for a coat or jacket!
