We go the extra mile to make sure the bride is happy with her flowers. Several people have told us about previous weddings they were involved with where the florist randomly substituted flowers other than what were ordered without ever consulting with the bride. In contrast, Stems delivers exactly what we promised, as ordered. We would never dream of substituting flowers, especially not without consulting the bride. In fact, we contact you several weeks prior to your wedding just to go over the final order, both to ensure there are no mix ups and to handle any last minute changes or additions.
If you book your wedding early enough, we can even order sample flowers in the colors selected to ensure that the colors are what you wanted. Brides have told us that they chose to go with us because we were very welcoming — it was not simply a business transaction. We really want you to feel comfortable and to have a worry-free wedding. We take the time to get to know your personal preferences…for example, do you prefer wide open blooms or flowers in the bud stage? We make sure that our flowers are at just the right stage of development to meet your wishes. We are excellent at identifying desired flowers, working within your budget, and making cost-saving suggestions.
Your bouquets are kept in water even after delivery to ensure maximum freshness. We will deliver to multiple locations if desired, so that you have less stress on your wedding day. We will also set up pew bows and altar flowers, if desired. If you want to save on delivery costs, we are happy to let you pick up your order at the shop instead at whatever time is convenient for you.
We often get phone calls requesting price quotes over the phone. Although we prefer to do consultations in person, if you can give us a general idea of the flowers you would like and the size and style of your bouquet, we can do an informal consultation long distance. Our web site contains a number of photos from prior weddings to help you with ideas– go to http://www.stemsabq.com/galery and click on “Wedding Flowers” or any of the sub-albums listed to the right side for inspiration.
For budgetary purposes, flowers for a typical wedding can range from $150 for just a small bouquet, boutonniere, and a couple of corsages up to several thousand dollars for a more grandiose affair with multiple attendants and reception flowers. Most bridal bouquets range between $75 and $200, depending on the types of flowers selected, the seasonability of those flowers, and the size and style of the bouquet.
When a bride schedules a consultation, she should bring a sample of her wedding colors, if possible, as well as a list of attendants and other family members or special friends who will need a boutonniere or corsage. Some brides know exactly what they want, and the right florist will help turn those dreams into stunning reality. Other brides are looking for guidance and ideas and simply want to know that their flowers will be delivered on time and as ordered. Whatever type of bride you are, Stems Floral Boutique will make you feel comfortable and guarantee that your flowers are exactly what you wanted. As one of our recent brides told us, “When I saw the bouquet, it was even better than what I had imagined! My jaw dropped open — it was gorgeous! I was very, very pleased with your work. You guys did an awesome job!” To see more of what our customers say, visit http://www.stemsabq.com/weddings.html. We look forward to working with you!
