Start with the occasion and the look. Everyday bouquets and gifts, wedding and event flowers, corporate arrangements, and sympathy tributes are different work, so look for a florist whose style, whether classic, modern or wild and natural, matches what you want.
Browse their portfolio and social feeds for recent work and consistency. For weddings and events, ask about consultations, seasonal flower availability, hire items like vases and arches, and on-site setup and pack-down.
Confirm delivery areas and cut-off times, especially for same-day orders and busy dates like Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. Recent reviews on freshness, how closely arrangements match the brief, and reliable delivery are the best guide.
A hand-tied bouquet typically starts around $60 to $90, with larger arrangements and wedding flowers quoted to your brief. Wedding florals are usually a custom package based on your flowers, numbers and setup.
Most florists deliver across Whanganui and surrounding suburbs for a fee, with same-day delivery often available if you order before a morning cut-off. Confirm delivery zones and timing when you order.
Book your wedding florist six to twelve months ahead, especially for peak summer dates, so they can secure your preferred flowers and reserve the date. Smaller orders need much less notice.
Florists work best with what is in season, which is fresher and better value, and will suggest alternatives if a specific flower is unavailable. Share your colours and style and trust their seasonal advice.
Many supply weddings, events, corporate reception flowers and regular business arrangements, plus hire of vases, arches and stands. Ask about consultations and on-site setup for larger jobs.
