Dinners, openings, memorials, standing orders

Events and everything else

Not every job is a wedding. Some of the best ones are a Tuesday.

What we do

Six things, with what they cost.

Prices are starting points for Asheville proper. Anything further out picks up mileage, which goes on the quote.

Low floral arrangements down a long dinner table

From $600

Corporate dinners

Low arrangements that people can see over, delivered and collected. Nobody on your staff handles a vase.

A tall floral statement piece on a plinth

From $450

Gallery & shop openings

Statement pieces that photograph — built tall, built once, and positioned where the camera will actually be.

A simple memorial flower spray

From $350

Memorials

We will take this off your plate entirely, and we do not upsell at funerals. One phone call, one price, delivered where it needs to be.

Bud vases and a centrepiece set for a party

From $500

Milestone parties

Birthdays, anniversaries, retirements. Usually a centrepiece, a run of bud vases, and something for the door.

A floral arrangement on a restaurant bar

From $180/week

Weekly accounts

Restaurants, hotels, offices. Changed every Monday, with the old stems taken away and the vessels washed.

Weekly accounts

How a standing order works.

You tell us how many positions and roughly what money you want to spend. We arrive every Monday morning before service, swap the flowers, take the old stems away, and wash the vessels back at the studio.

  • From $180 a week for three to five positions
  • Invoiced monthly, cancel with two weeks' notice
  • Vessels are ours — nothing to store, nothing to replace

The flowers change every week because we buy what's cutting that week. In August that's dahlias and zinnias for weeks on end; in February it's anemone, forced branches and a lot of foliage. It costs the same either way.

People arranging flowers at a long workshop bench

Workshops

Two hours at the bench.

Twelve people, one long bench, and whatever we cut or bought that morning. We start by talking about the season, then you build — a hand-tied bunch in spring and summer, a wreath or a dried arrangement in the winter.

  • From $85 a head, all materials and a vessel included
  • You take home what you made
  • Roughly monthly, plus a run in late November and December
  • Private bookings for groups of eight or more

Lead times. Most events we can turn around in under two weeks. Memorials we will do same-day or next-day where we possibly can — call, don’t email. Weekly accounts start the Monday after we’ve agreed the positions. Workshops need three weeks to fill twelve seats.

Weddings need a year. Everything else usually needs a phone call.
