FAQ

We recommend ordering as early as possible - ideally several months before your wedding date. However, we understand that plans change, and we sometimes have capacity to produce pieces on an express basis, even 2 weeks before the wedding.

Please note that our production capacity is sometimes fully booked up to 6 months in advance, especially during peak season (May to October).

How it works:
• You can reserve your production slot in advance
• The actual production will be scheduled approximately 1 month before your wedding, this allows time for delivery, consultations, and any adjustments
• This way you'll have everything ready on time and stress-free 🤍

Not sure where to start? Send us a message via chat, leave your email and WhatsApp number and we'll get back to you to discuss everything individually based on your needs.

To maintain fullness and visual balance, we design our arrangements more densely, so the overall look remains unchanged even if a tiny flower or leaf loosens.
