We recommend scheduling your delivery to receive your flowers around 1-4 weeks before the wedding, but you can receive them before this, as theyâre dried, theyâll last!
please note, if you choose to receive your flowers months in advance of the wedding and subsequently become damaged we canât offer a guarantee for them
With standard shipping we have a 4 week lead time on wedding orders.Â
If you need them sooner please select express shipping or selected day shipping for a nominated day.Â
Please note if you choose a delivery date before the 4 week lead time but do not pay for express shipping or selected day shipping we cannot guarantee arrival for your chosen date and will send them out in line with the standard shipping time.Â
If you have paid for select day shipping please make a note of your preferred delivery date as this will not appear in your email confirmation.Â

Where possible we suggest buying your wedding flowers in one order to ensure we can make the flowers match as closely as possible Â
We always endeavour to create your wedding flowers as close as possible to the pictures. However, the pictures are just a representation. Flowers are natural products and therefore colours, stems and shapes may vary slightly to the pictures online. We cannot always guarantee that you will receive the colour ribbon in the pictures however we do our best to ensure this or use ribbon in similar colours. Rarely we will have to make substitutions, but we will always do this in line with the theme and colours of the arrangements. If you have any questions about this just contact us and weâll be happy to help.Â
Our wedding bouquets are designed with a subtle front and back. The âfrontâ is styled to be held against you, allowing the blooms to sit beautifully against your dress while showing off the fuller arrangement to your guests. This ensures your bouquet looks gorgeous from every angle, whether in photos or as you walk down the aisle
Your garland may arrive in 2 sections which can easily be slotted together to create the full length.
