Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering

When should I place my A La Carte wedding flower order?

Please place your A La Carte order at least 4 weeks before your wedding or event date. Orders placed inside that window may not be accepted due to product and staffing limitations.

Are you available on my wedding date?

Most likely, yes!
We accept A La Carte orders Tuesday through Saturday, subject to availability. You’ll see available dates when you check out online.

Can I place an A La Carte order for a Sunday or Monday wedding?

We do not offer pickup or delivery on Sundays or Mondays.

If your wedding is on Sunday or Monday, we recommend:

  • Picking up your flowers on Saturday, and

  • Following our care instructions to keep everything fresh.

Can I pick up my order the day before my wedding?

Yes.

We always recommend same-day pickup/delivery for maximum freshness. However, if you need your flowers early:

  • Keep flowers in a cool area, away from direct sunlight and heat.

  • Do not place them in a fridge unless it is set to 40°F (4°C) and is flower-safe.

  • Replenish water daily for any designs in vases.

Can I add more items to my order later?

Yes, you may place additional orders as long as it is before the 4-week deadline.

Once you are inside 4 weeks of your wedding date, we are unable to add new A La Carte items.

Customizations & Design

Can I customize my A La Carte order?

To keep A La Carte affordable and efficient, we do not offer extensive customizations to these designs.

You choose from our curated menu, and we design your flowers in the style shown, using the best seasonal product available.

Will my bouquet look exactly like the photo?

No—and that’s one of the beautiful things about working with fresh flowers.

  • Each bouquet is uniquely crafted and may vary slightly based on the season and product availability.

  • We stay true to the overall style, color palette, and feel shown in the photos.

  • Some flowers (like peonies) are not available year-round. When they are in season and available, we will happily include them.

Your bouquet is designed just for you, so it won’t be identical to another bride’s—even within the same collection.

General Design Questions

What if I don’t want a big bouquet?

No problem.

Many brides choose our charming or delicate bouquet options for a more understated look. These are intentionally designed to feel lighter and smaller while still being beautiful and photo-ready.

What do you recommend for decorating an arbor?

We have several great options for arbors and ceremony structures:

  • Focal structures – clustered floral pieces that can be attached where you want the most impact.

  • Floral garland – a lush, elongated piece that can drape or frame your arbor.

Installation tip:

  • Use zip ties to attach both garland and focal structures.

  • Order multiple focal pieces if you want your arbor to feel extra full and dramatic.

Can I mix and match different collections?

Absolutely.

You’re welcome to mix bouquets, personals, and décor items from different collections to create a look that feels like you.

Menu Availability

I can’t find a specific item on the menu. Is it available?

If an item or design isn’t listed on our A La Carte menu, it is not currently available through this offering.

We intentionally keep the menu simple and streamlined so it’s easy to navigate.

You’re welcome to send suggestions—if we see enough interest in a particular item, we may consider adding it to the menu in the future.
