Online Wedding Flowers: Everything You Need to Know Before Ordering!
If you’re planning your wedding and love the idea of ordering your flowers online (without sacrificing style or quality), you’re in the right place!
Our Ready to Purchase wedding flower range is designed for couples who want a beautiful, considered option that’s easy, reliable, and very Sonder + Stone. Think premium faux blooms, modern styling, and zero unnecessary fuss (and NO MINIMUM SPEND!).
This guide covers everything you need to know about ordering our ready-made artificial wedding flowers online, from pre-orders to delivery timelines.
What Are Online (Ready to Purchase) Wedding Flowers?
Our online collection features ready-to-go wedding flower designs, sold exactly as shown on our website. Each piece is handcrafted in our Brisbane studio using the same premium-quality artificial blooms and signature styling you’ll see across our custom work.
These designs are:
-
Thoughtfully curated
-
Released in small batches
-
Made to order
They’re ideal if you’ve found a style you love and want a streamlined way to secure your flowers without going through a full design consultation.
Sold As Shown (And Ready to Go ✨)
Our Ready to Purchase range is designed to be exactly that — ready to go for your wedding day.
Every piece is created as a finished design, prepared to slot seamlessly into your day with minimal effort required.
What that means in practice:
-
Bouquets arrive fully styled and ribbon-wrapped, ready to be held straight out of the box
-
Ceremony and signage arrangements are made up in the vases shown, ready to place and go
-
Arbour and larger statement pieces are designed to be easily attached to frames using zip ties or similar fastenings, depending on your arbour structure
No loose stems. No DIY styling on the morning. No guesswork (and no extra jobs for your bridal party).
Because of this, designs are sold as shown in the product images. The overall look, scale, colour palette, and flower selection remain consistent so you know exactly what you’re receiving.
We don’t offer customisations to our online range.
If you’re after full creative flexibility, custom colour palettes, or a cohesive floral plan across multiple elements, our Custom Bookings service will be a better fit.
Small Batch Releases (And Why Dates Can Move 👀)
One of the most important things to understand about our online range is that every release is intentionally limited.
We work in small batches to maintain quality, consistency, and that sense of exclusivity Sonder + Stone is known for. The result? Popular styles can sell out quickly.
When a batch sells out, one of two things happens:
-
The design moves to a later pre-order date, or
-
The design is removed if we’re not planning to restock it
👉 This is why it’s essential to check the pre-order or dispatch date listed on each product page before ordering.
Pre-order dates will shift as batches sell out. If your wedding date is approaching, always double-check that the listed date still works for you before purchasing.
When Should You Order? (The honest answer) 🗓️
For our Ready to Purchase range, it’s important to know that most styles will be on pre-order.
Because we work in small batches, designs often sell out and move to a future dispatch date. This means the usual “order X weeks before” rule doesn’t always apply in the traditional sense.
Here’s how we recommend thinking about timing:
If the style is on pre-order ✨
-
Always check the dispatch date listed on the product page. This is the current estimated dispatch timeframe for that specific style.
-
Occasionally, we may be able to ship an order earlier if stock arrives sooner or our production schedule allows — but this isn’t guaranteed.
-
For that reason, we always recommend making your decision based on the latest dispatch date shown on the product page.
From there, we suggest allowing at least 4 weeks from the dispatch date before your wedding.
This gives you comfortable breathing room once your flowers arrive, plus time for shipping and any unexpected delays (because rushing around the week of your wedding is not the goal).
If the style is in stock 🌸
-
We recommend ordering 4–6 weeks before your wedding
-
This allows for:
-
10–15 business days production time
-
Shipping and delivery timeframes (metro vs regional)
-
A little buffer so nothing feels rushed
-
The key takeaway? Always check the product page date first, then work backwards from there. Easy, stress-free, no surprises.
When to Choose Custom Bookings Instead
Custom bookings are where we offer a fully bespoke floral experience.
This option is best suited if you’re looking for:
-
A personalised design process
-
Multiple floral elements across your wedding day
-
Styling tailored to your venue, colour palette, and vision
-
Flexibility beyond a fixed, pre-designed look
Our online range is intentionally streamlined. Custom bookings are where we go all in on design.
One of the Biggest Perks of Faux Flowers (A big one) 💐
One of the most-loved benefits of artificial wedding flowers is the ability to receive them ahead of time and store them safely until the big day.
Once your flowers arrive, we recommend:
-
Carefully unpacking and checking everything over
-
Letting the blooms gently settle after transit
-
If everything looks perfect (as it should), you can place them back into their boxes for safekeeping
For best results:
-
Keep flowers covered or boxed to avoid dust
-
Store them out of direct sunlight to prevent fading
-
Avoid damp or humid spaces
No wilting. No water. No last-minute logistics.
When the day arrives, simply take them out, give them a gentle fluff if needed, and you’re good to go 🌸 Easy.
Is the Ready to Purchase Range Right for You? 🤍
Our online wedding flower collection is ideal if you:
-
Want a beautiful, low-fuss option
-
Have fallen in love with a specific design and are happy to buy as is
- Appreciate small-batch, limited-release styles
If that sounds like you, our Ready to Purchase range might be your perfect match — simple, stylish, and designed to make wedding planning that little bit easier.
✨ A small note: because our designs are released in limited batches, availability and pre-order dates can change quickly. If you’re ever unsure whether a style will suit your timing, checking the product page details (or reaching out before ordering) is always a smart move.
