Do you have a minimum? 

Yes, full scale weddings have a $2,500 minimum, with most couples averaging $3,000-5,000. This investment allows for the bespoke and quality floral service you deserve.

How far in advance should I book my wedding florist? 

It is recommended you book 6-12 months in advance, especially for peak wedding dates. 

Do you offer rentals?

Yes, all hard goods (vases, compotes, candles) will be offered as a rental unless otherwise specified by the couples. This allows for cost effectiveness and sustainable practice. Rentals will be collected at the end of the event. Arrangements can be made so you and guests can take home flowers if you wish. Carnations + Connections does not have an inventory of arches, arbors, or chuppahs, but can reach out to one of our rental company connections to obtain one if needed.

Can you recreate a specific Pinterest look?​

We love inspiration pictures and vision boards! We won't recreate any one design specifically, however we will work together to fully understand your style and vision and use any inspiration photos to create a look that is unique to you, one that honors you and your connections.

Can we choose specific flowers?

We will do our best to incorporate favorite blooms when they are seasonally available, however mother nature can be unpredictable so we can never guarantee a specific flower. We will work to use alternatives that achieve a similar look, including color and texture, as needed.

What types of florals are included?

While we work together with couples to bring their vision to life, typical full scale weddings include personal flowers (bridal bouquet, wedding party bouquets and boutonnieres), ceremony flowers (aisle pieces, arches, chuppahs, etc.), cocktail hour and reception pieces (bud vases, centerpieces, bar piece, etc.). We work to repurpose florals from ceremony to reception as best we can without compromising the look you're envisioning.
