Floral Design Concierge

Flower Aunt Design Concierge service begins with flower and foliage selection, based on location, season, and style of your event. We meet via Zoom to get to know your vision, colors, location, and season of the event. We share flowers and foliage options to bring your vision to life through images from our growers, wild foliage, and sketches.Rather than pricing per arrangement, we work similarly to interior designers and share the cost of flowers, plus our design and delivery fees to help you create an event with confidence and clarity. Our concierge fee includes a detailed proposal for flower and foliage selection and sourcing for a wild greens archway, entry flowers, personal flowers, and small to medium size table arrangements. $249 -Schedule a complimentary fifteen minute call to learn more before booking by email at [email protected]
