Frequently Asked Questions
Floral Consultation:
We love to start off each new client relationship with a personal wedding floral consultation. Consultations take place at our Sherwood Design Studio office. Our office is a place to meet with clients and to display some of the creative items that we love to work with. We are only available for wedding floral consultations by appointment. The Design studio in a large industrial space, allowing us to make big fabulous messes while designing for our clients.
Consultations generally last between one and two hours depending on the amount of florals and décor you would like to discuss. We use this time to learn as much as we can about your vision for your wedding, your personal style and to share with you about Bella Bloom Florals.
We suggest you book your floral consultation as soon as possible. We book weddings on a “first come” basis and book full during the peak wedding months. You are welcome to book with us as early as twelve months prior to your wedding date.
Your Floral Proposal:
After your floral consultation with us we will put together a floral proposal; detailing what we would like to design for your wedding, a detailed pricing sheet, a small page of images; to give you a visual idea of the direction we’d like to take your florals and décor and a floral contract. Once we have these items complete we will email them to you for you to review. You should receive your floral proposal from us approximately two weeks after your floral consultation.
​
Mock up or Sample Designs:
You are welcome to order a sample design of most any of the designs for your wedding. The charge for each sample will be the same cost as described in your floral proposal. Depending on the seasonality of your proposed wedding blooms some blooms may not be available for your floral mock up.
Booking:
Once you’ve taken the time to review your floral proposal and you’ve decided to move forward with Bella Bloom Florals as your wedding florist we ask that you provide us with a $400 initial booking payment and e-signed a copy of your floral contract. We take a limited number of wedding clients each year and book clients on a “first come” basis. We are not able to hold dates for clients without a booking payment and signed floral contract.
​
Final Meetings:
We ask that each of our full-service wedding clients have a final meeting with us 4-6 weeks prior to their wedding date. During this final meeting, we will review the florals for your wedding and confirm the timeline for the day of your wedding. The final meeting can take place in our Sherwood studio or if you prefer we can finalize your florals over the phone.
Pricing:
On average Bella Bloom Clients spend between $3000 and $10,000 on their wedding florals and décor. We have some client choose to book only “personal” flowers with us and will spend less than $500 and other clients will choose to book full-service florals and styling will spend $6000 or more.
​
At this time we are cannot guarantee pricing on quotes prior to 6 months before your wedding or event date. Postponements and wedding date changes can effect your floral pricing.

Season, type of flower, the complexity of design and quantity may all affect the cost of your wedding floral.
