AM I THE FLORIST FOR YOU?
A little about me, my creative approach and how I work my flower magic! From seasonal blooms to florist's choice designs, here's everything you need to know about Pretty Please Flowers, what makes my flowers a little different and whether we're a match made in flower heaven.
ANSWERING THE PRETTY LITTLE QUESTIONS FIRST…
What services do you offer?
Weddings, parties, pretty little pick-me-ups and everything in between! Pretty Please Flowers offers a range of floral services, from the tiniest buttonhole to big, bold statement arrangements. Whether you've got a fully formed vision or just a vague idea and a Pinterest board, I'd love to hear what you're dreaming up.
Where are you located?
Reservoir, Melbourne! I currently work from a residential home meaning the exact address isn’t provided until after purchase. Delivery is available across Melbourne, but pricing varies dependent on distance and whether the delivery is needed before or after hours.
How far in advance should I order?
The more notice, the better!
For gift bouquets, orders generally need to be placed by Friday for delivery across the weekend.
Events - ideally one week notice.
Weddings - I recommend getting in touch between 6-8 months in advance so we have plenty of time to plan, source and organise everything.
Do you offer delivery?
I sure do! I offer local flower delivery across selected Melbourne suburbs, with free delivery to Reservoir, Kingsbury and Preston.
Delivery to surrounding areas is available for an additional fee (between $12-$20, depending on the location.
For weddings and events, delivery and setup are quoted separately.
Can I request specific flowers?
You can absolutely tell me what flowers you love, and I'll always do my best to accommodate your preferences!
However, I primarily work with seasonal, florist's choice flowers, meaning specific varieties aren't always guaranteed.
I believe some of the prettiest creations come from working with what's fresh, seasonal and looking fabulous at the flower market.
What does Florist’s Choice mean?
You choose the vibe, I choose the flowers!
You can share your preferred colours, favourite flowers, inspiration images and anything you'd rather avoid.
From there, I'll hand-select a combination of seasonal blooms to create something beautiful and uniquely yours.
Do you have a minimum spend?
I have a minimum order spend of $80 (not including delivery).
As a small, made-to-order florist, I purchase flowers specifically for each job, often in full bunches from the wholesale market.
The Pretty Please approach to wedding flowers
When I was a bride-to-be, I found it SO easy to get swept up in the whirlwind of more, more, more.
Suddenly, I was buying things I didn't even know I wanted, considering add-ons I hadn't thought twice about and scrolling through a Pinterest board that was about 250 pictures deep. There were a million decisions to make, a million opinions to consider and a constant feeling that maybe I needed just one more thing to make the day perfect.
And while I worked with some wonderful vendors, I found it surprisingly difficult to build a genuine connection with many of them. Sometimes, I just wanted to have a proper chat with someone. Someone who would listen to my ideas, understand what I was trying to achieve and give me a little honest advice along the way.
I wanted that big-sister figure who would tell me not to overthink it, who matched my energy and wouldn’t simply agree with every idea I threw their way or encourage me to keep adding things to the invoice.
And that's exactly the kind of florist I want to be for you. I'm not here to sell you more flowers than you need. I'm here to help you create wedding flowers you'll absolutely love and take the stress of floral planning off your plate.
If your dream has always been big? Then by-golly, we’ll shoot for the moon. Not that fussed by flowers but still want to make a statement? Check out one of my wedding packages and let’s cut the fat. Keeping it cute? Bouquets and buttonholes is all you need.
At Pretty Please Flowers, my approach is personal, collaborative and refreshingly down-to-earth. I'll bring the creative ideas, the flower knowledge and a little bit of honest advice. You bring your vision, your personality and whatever beautifully chaotic Pinterest board you've been putting together.
I'M THE FLORIST FOR YOU, IF...
-
You've got a Pinterest board full of inspiration, a colour palette you adore and a general idea of how you want your flowers to feel, but you're happy to leave the finer details to me!
I'm all about capturing the vibe, not creating a carbon copy. We'll chat about what you love, what you don't and everything in between, and I'll use a little creative freedom to bring your vision to life.
Mother Nature is a fickle thing, and flower availability can change with the seasons, weather and market. A little flexibility means less stress, fewer last-minute worries and more room for me to work my flower magic.
You bring the vision, I'll bring the flowers!
-
Don't get me wrong, I love a good trend as much as the next florist, but I also love doing things a little differently!
If you've got a weird, wonderful or completely out-of-the-box idea, I want to hear it! Whether it's an unusual colour combination, an unexpected floral installation or something I've never tried before, I'm always up for getting a little creative.
I love a challenge, and some of the best ideas come from thinking outside the (flower) box. So please, throw your wild ideas my way!
