The Sweet Afton Floral experience
Hi There!!
I’m SO glad you’ve landed on my page! Congratulations on your engagement! :)
I’m guessing you’re probably here because you’re in need of wedding flowers and might be considering Sweet Afton Floral…but also might want to know more about how this works!
Many couples aren’t sure where to start with flowers and THAT IS OKAY!
You don’t need to have it all figured out!
That’s where I come in! It’s my job to use your wedding vision to help guide you in the direction you would like to go with your flowers! I give you the information, tools, and resources to help determine your wedding flower needs.
Okay! Let’s get down to the details!
First things first, understandably pricing is always the #1 question I’m asked
Pricing flowers is tricky. It varies based on the size of arrangements, flower selection, and flower availability.
It is quite honestly impossible to give a cut and dry price for everyone who inquires. However, because I adore my clients and want you to be fully aware of what to expect, I give average prices on my website and have a handy BUDGET CALCULATOR on my website!
You can view those starting prices

Okay, so you’ve looked over the prices,
here’s what you can expect when you inquire to have Sweet Afton Floral for your day!

Step 5
We work our magic!
It's smooth sailing for you from this point on. Other than a few emails back an forth (or meetings if you choose), you can relax knowing we will take care of the rest!
FLORAL RECIPE:
About a month before the wedding, I will compile something called a floral recipe. This is essentially a list of all the arrangements I'm doing for you and the flowers I hope to include in each arrangement. It is a guideline for me to follow and a way for you to see the overall look I have planned. I will send the floral recipe to your email for you to review and approve and revise if needed, or we can meet in person-whichever you prefer. This will be sent no later than 3 weeks before the event.
Any changes you would like to make to your arrangements (including adding or removing) can only be made up until 3 weeks prior to the wedding
ORDER & DELIVERY:
I will order flowers approximately 2 1/2 weeks before the wedding and, in most cases, receive their delivery several days before the event. I get the flowers a few days in advance to allow them to fully bloom and look their best in your arrangements.
DESIGNING:
The arrangements are put together a day or two before the event and are kept in a cool fridge to maintain freshness until the day of the event.
DELIVERY OR PICKUP:
Per your selection, the arrangements will then be delivered by us or picked up by you.
Delivery is FREE for weddings over $2000!
(up to 150 miles total, additional fees applied to weddings farther)
SETUP:
Setup is required for arrangements such as: arches, garlands, cakes, and other installation arrangements.
We will make sure enough time is set aside to have your flowers ready and looking beautiful for when your event starts.
