FULL-SERVICE FLORAL DESIGN
$8,000 minimum Investment
Our Full-Service offers comprehensive floral concept. From lush bouquets to show-stopping installations, we take care of every detail. You’ll work closely with our designer to create a custom floral design plan that feels like you and elevates your entire event.
This design package includes floral planning logistics, complete floral design, and additional services. Your event vision will be our top priority throughout the entire planning process, ensuring that we create a day uniquely tailored to you from the first petal to the final breakdown.
If you’re looking for something less personalized and smaller scale, our A La Carte Florals may be a better fit.
For Full-Service Floral Design
From inquiry to “I DO”
01 | inquiry & questionnaire
Your floral journey begins by submitting an inquiry form. Once received, we’ll send an introductory email confirming availability for your date, along with a detailed floral questionnaire, and a link to schedule a discovery call to discuss your vision and priorities.
02 | estimate + secure your date
Once we had a chance to chat and go over your completed floral questionnaire, we’ll give you estimates based on your wish list. If you’d like to move forward, we’ll send you a retainer invoice to secure your date on our calendar within 7 days. Your retainer payment will be credited towards your total.
03 | initial proposal
Once we received your retainer payment, we will create a customized floral proposal based on your vision and budget. You’ll be able to view your initial custom proposal, request any changes, and sign our contract.
04 | final details
We check in about 6-8 weeks before the event to schedule a final details meeting and chat about any changes - go over timeline, make any final adjustments, get any additional info on anything else we should know before your big day, and collect final payment.
05 | the big day
Our floral design team will arrive on site in the morning to deliver your personal florals, then begin executing your floral designs while you relax, get pampered, & enjoy your day!

“Working with A Rose's Thorn was great and we couldn't be happier with our wedding florals! Michelle was very thorough and helped bring my vision to life. She did a wonderful job of providing flexible choices, creating a custom vision board, and went above and beyond for us on the day of our wedding. The flowers were everything we hoped for!”

FAQs
-
For Full-Service Floral Design, you should secure your date with your florist as soon as your venue is booked. Ideally, you should contact your florist 6-8 months prior to the event date. However, if flowers are a high priority item for you then we suggest contacting and booking your event florist even earlier (between 8-12 months).
For our A La Carte florals, we accept orders up to 1 month prior to your event if the date is available.
-
Florals can vary significantly, and typically cost about 10%-20% of your total event budget. However, we suggest a budget of 25%-35% of your total event budget for Pinterest-worthy and lush designs.
The average price of a bridal bouquet is $300+ and a typical centerpiece ranges from $200+ depending on the size and florals used.
-
Event flowers are carefully managed at our studio to ensure they are fully open, beautiful, and at their prime for your event. Meaning, their post-event lifespan is not as long as an arrangement purchased at a retail flower shop.
Flowers exposed to heat, sun, wind, freezing temperatures, or other such conditions may not last beyond the event.
-
You can absolutely request specific flowers! But, as you'll see in our Services Agreement, we cannot make any guarantees. Flowers are perishable goods that are subject to a variety of factors such as growing season, weather, global shipping processes and many more. We will try our best, but encourage you to focus on an overall vision and aesthetic as opposed to having your heart set on specific flowers since exact selections are subject to change due to quality and/or availability beyond our control.
A La Carte Florals:
To keep an affordable and streamlined process, our A La Carte floral service allows for easy ordering within our curated list of items. This service is ‘designer’s choice’ which means we choose the exact blooms that will be in your arrangements based on your color palette.
-
We completely understand that things change during the planning process and that the design can evolve. We allow flexibility to make changes to the proposal up to 30 days prior to your event day, so nothing is set in stone when you sign. We only ask that you do not go below the stated minimum on your signed agreement. We will work closely with you throughout the planning process so that the final design is truly magical.
-
This can vary by event. Some floral arrangements include giveaway containers with arrangement costs, and are welcome to be taken home by guests at the end of the evening.
For more elaborate items, such as lanterns, stands, and oversized vases/containers, including any LED lights, votives, or candle holders, are not to be taken by guests at the end of the evening. All rental items will be clearly stated in your event contract.
For A La Carte Florals:
Yes, our A La Carte arrangement containers are included with arrangement costs, and are welcome to be taken home by you and your guests at the end of the evening.
