Frequently Asked Questions

We believe your floral journey should feel seamless, inspiring, and thoughtfully led from start to finish. Here’s what it looks like to work with Cedar Rae Floral:

​​

1. Submit Your Inquiry Form
Start by filling out the form on our Weddings page. This helps us gather key details, check availability, and begin understanding your overall vision.

​

2. Let’s Connect
If your date is available, we’ll schedule a consultation—virtually or in person—to explore your aesthetic, color palette, guest count, budget, and venue layout. Feel free to send inspiration images or your Pinterest board in advance. We love seeing what speaks to you.

 

3. Receive Your Custom Proposal
Following our consultation, we’ll craft a personalized proposal tailored to your style, seasonal flower availability, and overall event design. We source from trusted wholesalers and local flower farms to ensure exceptional quality and thoughtful selection.​

​​

4. Proposal Review & Refinement
Once you receive your proposal (typically within a week), we’ll review it together and make any adjustments

needed. Proposal pricing is valid for seven days to allow time for thoughtful decision-making.

​

5. Booking & Contract

When you're ready to move forward, your personalized proposal in our online system also generates your contract and allows for secure electronic signatures. Everything—proposals, updates, amendments, and inspiration—is organized in one place so we both stay aligned throughout the process. Once your contract is signed and half of the payment is received, your date is officially reserved.

​

Still making a decision? That’s completely okay. We simply ask that you keep us informed so we can plan accordingly. We normally jive with our couples, and it just feels right. If you aren’t getting those feelings, please let us know within the 7-day proposal window so we can open your date back up for someone else. More than anything, we want you to feel confident and excited about your wedding floral designer.

​

6. Final Details Meeting
Approximately 4–6 weeks before your wedding, we’ll reconnect to finalize all remaining details, including delivery timelines, design refinements, and any updates to your floral needs.

​

7. Continued Support
From timeline logistics to last-minute ideas, we’re here for you every step of the way. Our goal is to ensure that your experience feels intentional, organized, and beautifully tailored to you.

​

Let’s design something unforgettable—florals that reflect your story, your style, and the beauty of your celebration.

​

Our full service wedding floral designs typically begin at around $2,000 for essentials such as bouquets, boutonnieres, altar pieces, and smaller accent arrangements. For couples envisioning lush centerpieces, floral arches or hanging installations, a sweetheart table abundant with blooms, or a ceremony aisle lined with meadow-inspired florals, investments generally range from $3,500 to $6,000+.

​

On average, our clients invest between $3,750 and $4,500 for full-service florals, including design, installation, and taxes.

​

One of the benefits of working with us is that many ceremony elements—such as arches, aisle markers, and altar arrangements—can be thoughtfully repurposed for your reception, extending their impact and providing exceptional value while maintaining that seamless floral experience throughout your day.

Absolutely. We provide comprehensive delivery, setup, and teardown services to ensure your florals are flawlessly arranged and ready to impress. These services will be detailed as separate line items in your proposal, allowing for transparent planning and budgeting.

​

If you plan to repurpose ceremony florals for your reception, we will collaborate closely to determine responsibility for their careful transition. Please note that additional labor fees may apply depending on the complexity of teardown, cleanup requirements, and any venue restrictions such as late-night or early-morning access.

 

We’ll also discuss your preferences for centerpieces at the end of the night—whether you’d like to gift them to guests or keep them as cherished mementos (we highly recommend the latter!). Our designs can be tailored to facilitate easy transport and enjoyment by you and your loved ones.

​

Additionally, if your design includes rented items—such as vases, candles, or decorative stands—we take full responsibility for their proper return in accordance with rental agreements.

​

Our goal is to manage every detail seamlessly so you can fully immerse yourself in and enjoy your extraordinary day.

We gladly accept payment via check, cash, or credit card. As a small business, we encourage clients to consider paying by check or cash, as it helps us minimize processing fees and keeps costs lower for both parties. If you prefer to pay by credit card, we can certainly accommodate that as well, with a small fee to cover processing costs.

​

We aim to make the payment process as easy and convenient as possible, and we're happy to discuss any payment plans that work best for you.

To get started, simply fill out the form here with a little more information about your day, and we’ll schedule a consultation to dream up the perfect floral designs together. We can’t wait to hear all the details and help bring your vision to life as your chosen floral designer!
