01

One-on-one meeting to learn your style & vision

We'll talk details of your big day, how you envision your wedding florals, and how we approach Full Service event work. If we decide we're a good fit, you'll be sent an estimate and contract to secure your event date.

02

We grow your wedding flowers from seed.

We get to the creative work of sourcing and starting your wedding flowers from seed. You'll receive a mood board with varieties we are growing so you can see the magic unfurl!

03

On your wedding day, we take care of everything

We'll harvest every stem fresh, and create your designs knowing your preferences. Our team arrives early to your venue to create pieces on site, set up florals and attend to every detail.

WHAT TO EXPECT, HOW IT ALL WORKS, AND CASE STUDIES

01

Full flexibility to suit your needs

Whether for an intimate gathering or a larger party, we work with you to bring your unique floral vision to life. Possibilities include wedding party flowers (handheld bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, etc.), table flowers, as well as floral installation work for ceremony and/or reception sites. 

02

We take the mystery out of pricing

We charge a retainer for our services, which includes all labour and design fees. Above this, you'll only be charged the wholesale price per stem of the flowers used in your event, allowing for full transparency. Our retainer depends upon the size/scope of your event and averages around $2,000.

03

Access a diversity of Ontario blooms

As members of the Local Flower Collective based in Toronto, we have access to a variety of unique, specialty-cut flowers and foliage grown throughout Southeastern Ontario. In addition to the flowers we'll grow especially for you, we are thrilled to be able to source from other ecological growers for any added touches to complement your vision.

"From start to finish, Marie was so patient, kind, enthusiastic, passionate, caring, and so genuinely sweet. She intuitively grasped what it was I was envisioning.

We were both so happy with the flowers on our special day - they were lush, romantic, wildflowers, thoughtfully crafted into awe-inspiring works of art."

— sara, wedding client

LOVE NOTES

"I was drawn by the fact that Marie grows her own florals; Every seed was planted with love, care and intention.

In the wedding industry there's so much use of single-use plastics, waste and "excess". I wanted to hire someone who had the same values as I did when it comes to sustainability."'

~ June

"You absolutely killed it on our wedding day- everything you created was so beautiful and absolutely perfect.

 I still cannot find the words to describe how emotional the flowers made me. You captured my essence in flowers, which for how important and how much joy flowers bring me- it meant the world." 

~ Kirsten
