Weddings + Event FAQ
Q: Do you have a minimum?
A: We have a wedding minimum of $2,000 before taxes during peak wedding season May-October. If you are looking for more of an “A la Carte” floral service, we request that you inquire no earlier than 2-3 months before your date to check our availability.
Q: Do you offer wedding/event design services outside of London?
A: Yes! We can travel within Ontario and the delivery + set up fee in your quote will be determined in part on the location of your wedding/event venue.
Q: Do you offer other décor in addition to flowers?
A: In addition to flowers, we offer arch, candle and vase rentals. If you are looking for something specifically and we don’t have it available, we would be happy to offer you suggestions of third party rental companies.
Q: Can I provide my own vases and candles?
A: You can provide your own candles, however, we find that our rental fees are similar to the cost to purchase them from a third party supplier. We reuse our candle holders, thereby making it a more environmentally friendly option to rent from us. You may provide your own vases as long as they are approved by us first to ensure the size and shape are fitting to our aesthetic.
Q: I have a friend/family member who is going to make my bouquet/centerpieces, are you able to provide the rest of the flowers?
A: We require that Grow & Bloom Co. maintains sole control over the complete floral design of each wedding/event we take on in order to maintain the integrity of our brand portfolio.
Q: How much is delivery?
A: We charge a delivery and set up fee that varies depending on the extent of the floral design. For example, if there is an arch installation or different ceremony and reception locations, the fee will reflect the additional time and staff required to complete the set up on time. If there is any type of installation, delivery and set up will be added to your quote. If you want to pick up the flowers yourself, they must be picked up the day of your wedding and Grow & Bloom Co. is not responsible for any damages, including dead or wilting flowers, once they have left our care. It is recommended you hire us to deliver and set up all the flowers to ensure that each bloom is perfectly in place and hydrated.
Q: How do I get a quote?
A: Please fill out our Inquiry form and we will get back to you within 3-5 business days. From there we will send you a more in-depth questionnaire and will ask you to Include as much information as possible including number of each item and any images of inspiration.
Q: Are consultations free?
A: Yes!
Q: How can I book you as my wedding/event florist?!
A: To officially book with us, we require a 10-15% non-refundable deposit. We do not offer any soft holds at this time.
Q: Can you use cheaper flowers to keep costs down?
A: The types of flowers we use range in price and are masterfully selected to offer a unique combination of blooms that when designed together represent our specific style and maintain the integrity of our brand portfolio.
Q: Can I make changes after signing the contract and paying the deposit?
A: Absolutely. Changes can be made up to one month before your wedding/event date. Changes must be made in writing by email or in person during the final consultation. Upon signing the contract, you may not reduce the total amount agreed upon by more than 25%.
Q: How far in advance should I book my wedding florist?
A: We only take a limited number of weddings each week, and we tend to book up quickly during peak months (May, June, August, September, October) therefore we recommend reaching out 6 months to 1 year ahead.
