Roundup of my Top Wedding Flower Posts

My least favourite episode of every TV show ever is always the “Clip Episode” (except for on the Office). You know, those episodes where the characters look back at their fondest memories and there’s nothing new in the episode, it’s just clips from the past? Yeah, that’s boring.

BUT, I thought it might be helpful for all of you who are stalled out on your wedding planning thanks to Covid-19 OR those of you who are looking ahead to 2021 and 2022 weddings to round up some of my personal favourite and some of my most popular blog posts to give you a hand or two!

My Top 5 Must-Haves for an UNBELIEVABLE Elopement

What I love about an elopement is IT’S ALL ABOUT THE PROMISES AND THE TWO OF YOU. In the current climate, I’m assuming that many of you who are planning an elopement is because you can’t have the large wedding that you’d like, but you still want to have the ceremony and make your promises to each other.

2020 and 2021 Wedding Flower and Decor Trends

Every year, I put together a “wish list;” concepts or ideas that I would love to play with or design more of for clients. What I love about doing this is that it makes it a bit easier to think on my feet during a consultation - I already have some great ideas in my back pocket, and if one of those ideas might be perfect for you, then I can suggest it right away. While I often talk about the big wedding flower and decor trends around engagement season, this year I want to highlight some of the design concepts on my wish list!

What's the Actual Cost of a Bridal Bouquet? Late Summer Boho Bouquet Breakdown

I’m often asked by brides-to-be on Instagram about the cost of a particular wedding flower arrangement that I’ve posted. I won’t lie - I often don’t hear back from those inquiries.

I can’t always give specific pricing because it’s not necessarily relevant to the inquiring bride’s date, or flower requests, or it might not be appropriate to share what an actual couple has invested in their flowers, so I generally give price ranges that someone might expect. For reference, my bridal bouquets start at $225 and often come in between $225 - $250. Couples who are attracted to my work generally fall within a similar design style (garden-inspired, romantic, floral-heavy), and that means incorporating certain types of flowers that start at a higher price point - garden roses, peonies, ranunculus are all examples. I wrote an entire blog series on wedding flower costs in Manitoba and if you want to know more, you can read that here!
