What do wedding flowers cost?
This is the season for inquiries about wedding flowers!
I have so much fun sitting down with couples to come up with proposals for their big day.
It’s my goal here to give you a picture of what you can expect to pay for wedding flowers.
Unlike other customer experiences, the cost can be a bit more complicated when it comes to flowers. So much depends on what each bride is looking for. I like to liken the pricing of wedding flowers to the price of a contractor for a home remodel. Everything is custom. Everything is dependent on the couple’s unique vision and desires
Does the bride want a huge cascading bouquet with lots of variety? Or does she want something more small and dainty? Does she need large table arrangements for 25 tables? Or maybe garlands for 10 tables with candles. Are pieces going to be moved from ceremony to reception? Is there a floral installation or arch involved?
You can see why it’s not simple to put a price tag on any one of these items!

The Bridal Bouquet
So let’s get into the nitty-gritty by starting with the bridal bouquet - arguably the most important floral piece.
Your flowers will be part of your wedding photos which will be with you for a lifetime and beyond. This is your special floral piece! Give yourself permission to get exactly what you want.
Turnstone Farm bridal bouquets start around 350.00. Each piece is a work of art and completely custom. My flower designs will make you feel chic, elegant, and magical.
The Bridesmaids Bouquet
The style of your bridesmaid’s bouquets largely depends on your bridal bouquet, but not always! Usually, brides choose to have smaller versions of their bouquet for the bridesmaids. However, if you are choosing a cascading bouquet, don’t think you need to get your ladies a cascade as well. Their bouquets should be smaller and more modest. Turnstone Farm bridal bouquets start at 185.00.
Sometimes customers choose to give their bridal party a single bloom to hold. This can be a simple and elegant visual statement. Single blooms start at 15.00 each.
Floral Combs & Crowns
A stylish addition to your wedding attire are flowers for the hair! Floral combs are 75.00. Floral crowns start at 175.00.
Boutonnieres and Corsages
Expect to spend 35.00 - 65.00 on each one. The lower price reflects a standard boutonniere worn on a shirt or coat. The upper price covers a slightly more elaborate wrist corsage. Remember corsages can be worn on the wrist or pinned a jacket/blouse/dress.

Custom Arrangements
These may include any of the following: chapel flowers, table garlands, table arrangements (small or large), flowers for the bar or welcome table, etc.
So much about the actual price depends on the style of your arrangements, the flowers you choose, the vessel you desire, and the density of the arrangement.
Expect a small and simple table arrangement to start at 85.00. A larger, more elaborate one could reach 750.00+.
I know this is a huge price range! That’s why I spend so much care putting together your proposal. I want to make sure you get exactly what you want. I want your event to feel exactly as you envision it. I want your guests to feel honored, welcomed, and loved.
Floral Arches/installations
Arches and installations are dreamy. They are gorgeous, add a layer of luxury to your event, and create an amazing backdrop for your ceremony. Remember, the photos taken in front of an installation will be with you forever! It is because of this that installations are well worth the money.
A simple arch may start around 700.00. Expect to spend well over 1500.00 on anything more elaborate!
Other floral installations that you may want to consider in and around the reception area are: floral walls and hanging florals.
If you want to communicate abundance, magic, and beauty, this is for you!
