So glad you asked! It means that we are not a retail flower shop that offers daily designs instead we specialize in weddings and events. Our studio is open by appointment or when we are working on these amazing events. Our space is consult and production space only, no gifts, greeting cards, balloons, or others items you might see at a traditional flower shop. We are 100% focused on each client and event we take, as we don’t have the distraction of running a retail shop, daily deliveries, sympathy arrangements etc. This studio concept has allowed us to minimize overhead expenses, maximize our family time, and provide exceptional value for those that book us.

Good question! Back in the day when Instagram first started they would only allow so many characters to be a user name, this eliminated my business name and my full name. I was sitting at my kitchen counter and looked up at my refrigerator and there was an envelope hanging on it that said “Flowermoney” that a client had dropped off for payment of their wedding….thus it was born. After IG changed their parameters and allowed larger names and even business accounts we could have changed it but it just kinda stuck and we are ok with it.

We work on proposals weekly typically Mondays and Tuesdays, so on average 3-5 day turn around unless we are on a heavy production week, then we ask for patience. We will never ghost you so if you don’t receive anything message us, sometimes it goes to spam.

ABSOLUTELY! In fact 60% of the couples we book with each season we actually never meet and all of our initial consults are via zoom or phone. Of course we would love to meet in person for your final consult which will be 45-30 days prior to your wedding but is not necessary or required. All initial consults are conducted via phone or zoom.

50% of the proposal total. The remaining 50% is due 45-30 days prior to your wedding date at your final consult meeting. If you are booking less than 2 months out from your event, please plan to pay in full. Please note the initial 50% is non-refundable.

YES! I can tell you most of our bride’s average in the $2500-$5000 range. We can work with most budgets but do have a minimum ($1000) as our flowers are ordered in bunch or case quantities not by the stem.

I am sorry but this rarely works as it doesn’t meet our minimum. We can do your bouquet, bridesmaids, boutonnieres, and corsages so everything that is photographed the most coordinates and is professional.

Unfortunately, we are not a wholesaler so we don’t offer or resell flowers by the bunch. We refer brides to local growers April-October and to www.fiftyflowers.com. We do not provide recipes for designs, lists of flowers, etc. please don’t ask …it gets awkward. In your proposal we will show you inspiration that you can then decide what blooms you are selecting to DIY.

Your bouquet(s) will be a curated version of all those images combined. We do not ever copy a design from another designer or from our past brides. We ask that you trust us to create something beautiful based on what we show you or what you have shown us. Please give us the flexibility to be creative, use in season blooms, and substitute when we see something we like better at our wholesaler.

We have a program for brides called “Something Borrowed.” Any bride that secures us for their entire wedding we allow them to borrow our glassware if they agree to return them the Wednesday after their event. Please ask about this program during your consult. These are for designs that you secure on your proposal designed by us not for DIY.

Absolutely! We have many affordable container options that can be included in the pricing of your designs.

Yep! Just make sure that they are watertight especially any galvanized containers and just bring one of these to your consult so we can quote you appropriately for a design. It is also helpful to provide an extra container in case of breakage. We also do not wash, remove any labels or add liners. Please plan to drop all of them off the week of your wedding. Also note, that we are going to be completely honest with you about these containers and how it will look with YOUR wedding. We ALWAYS consider vase height when designing centerpieces so you DO NOT even need to tell us that you don’t want it in direct eyesight or blocking your guests view in the middle of the table. With that being said do not bring any centerpiece vases over 6 inches in height to be on the safe side. Taller vases for guest book, buffet, bars, memory table, dessert table, etc are totally acceptable.

We put a 7-day courtesy hold on your wedding date for you to decide if you would like to secure us. It really varies how many weddings we take in one weekend as we base this on size and location. April-October is wedding season in this area with peak months being June and September, October. In 2021 we will start enforcing our peak month minimum of $1500 per wedding in the months of June, September, and October.

These are VERY limited packages and are only available to clients that want no DIY floral in their event. Planning services are quoted completely separate from floral. If you are interested in this please let us know at your initial consult.

YES! Just let me know what categories you are still seeking, and we will let you know who our go to peeps are. Also do not hesitate to check out our vendor link.

Yes, I can but please note that this is not a cheaper option.

Yes, we just started offering pressed framed designs in 2024. Please let us know as soon as you decide you want bouquet preservation to get on our schedule. Keep in mind someone needs to bring the bouquet to the studio the Monday after your event. During wedding season these take us some time so if you need a quick turnaround time we are not a great option. Prices ranges from $150-$300. Soon we will add a resin option.

Another option we like is an online company called Soil and Soul Studios.

We totally understand! We offer a unique kind of consult for brides that fall in this category. We call it our “Celebration” consult. It starts at $350 and all the details are on our website. I can tell you that in 14 years I have only done one mock up as brides that book us give us a lot of creative freedom and trust.

Just shoot me an email with any adjustments or questions and we will make those changes. You can make changes again 45-30 days prior to your wedding.

Yes, but only through the proposal “Pay Now” link. We do not keep cards on file or run cards in our studio for your security. Also note that there is an additional fee for this option. Again, we do not take payment in our studio using credit or debit cards. We do however accept cash and check if you would like to schedule a time to drop off payment or better yet just pop it in the mail (cause we LOVE mail.) We are available at our studio BY APPOINTMENT only.

I really try hard to do behind the scenes and sometimes I am super successful and other times I fail miserably. If you do not want anything posted, PLEASE let me know so I can note it for all our designers.

I sure hope so! We love getting links from brides with all their photography so we can create blog posts, social media content, and basically just swoon over your big day…so don’t forget to send those links, pretty please.

You can opt for delivery (starting at $125 and up) or pick up from our studio in Richland, WA. All delivery times are based on when photography starts for each of our brides on that weekend. We cannot guarantee a certain time but can guarantee you will have them prior to picture start time. Also please note that in high heat or crazy weather you may need your day of coordinator to put out centerpieces on tables an hour prior to ceremony. We can accommodate pickups on Friday evening as well as Saturday morning before we head out for deliveries. Let us know what works best for you.
