The Wedding Booking Process
Congratulations! You're engaged!
Hopefully, you’ve taken some time to really enjoy the excitement of this major life event and had a blast telling all your friends and family. Engagments are so incredibly special and emotional and overwhelming, and really, just all the feelings all at once! It’s pretty amazing when two people make a commitment to build a life together; and being your florist for that incredible event, is an absolute honor and pleasure.
Planning a wedding is so fun and so much work, but if you find vendors you love and trust, the process will be much more enjoyable. If flowers are something you love, and are an important part of your day and decor, it’s best to book as soon as possible. Here is a look into the wedding process we use here at Black Dog.
first
Fill out the inquiry form on the website and give as much detail as possible, if you don’t have a lot of details yet, that’s ok too! I’m here to help! The good news is I know a TON about flowers, so you don’t have to!
second
Let's chat! After your form is submitted, we'll set up a call or zoom to discuss how we can make your floral vision come to life and how we can make it work within your budget.
third
Now that I have all the information I need, I will write up a quote specifically for you and your fiancé with an itemized list of your needs, details, and pricing, as well as a copy of the contract. Look everything over and discuss with your fiancé and family.
forth
After touching base about the original quote, we will finalize any last changes and then it’s time to book your wedding date! To book, I require a 25% deposit is due to hold your date and start the design process.
fifth
Once booked, we'll chat again about 6-8 weeks out from your wedding date, finalize all the numbers, needs, and colors one last time. At this time your remaining balance is due! When the balance is received in full, I'll order your wedding flowers, foliage, and hardgoods and we'll be on our way to design for your best day ever!
If at anytime during the process, you’d like to chat about an update or change, feel free to send an email at any time! Lines of communication are always open for my couples. Looking forward to guiding you through this process and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
