Frequently Asked Questions
🌸 General FAQs
What are the benefits of artificial flowers over fresh ones?
Our artificial wedding flowers are high-quality, everlasting, and allergy-friendly. They’re not limited by seasonal availability, photograph beautifully, and are yours to keep forever. Plus, there’s no wilting or last-minute stress before your big day.
How long will my artifical flowes last?
Unlike regular flowers that wilt after a few days, everlasting flowers are in it for the long haul. With proper care, they can stay beautiful and fresh for years.
That means you can enjoy their beauty for a whole lot longer!
How do i keep my artificial flowers clean?
Don't worry, keeping your everlasting flowers clean is a piece of cake! Just give them a gentle dusting with a soft brush or use a hairdryer on a low, cool setting to remove any dust.
If your silk stems get out of shape, you can also use a garment steamer to bring them back to life.
No water or cleaning solutions needed!
Where are you based, and do you ship Australia-wide?
We’re based in Brisbane, QLD, and ship our premium artificial florals Australia-wide. Whether it’s bouquets or large ceremony displays, we ensure your florals arrive safely and ready to go, no matter where you are based in Australia!
Do you have a minimum spend?
Not for our ready-to-order florals—buy a little or a lot (and enjoy our “Bundle Up + Save” deals!).
For custom wedding bookings, we have a minimum spend of $1,500 (excluding delivery fees).
Do you have a showroom or offer consultations?
We’re an online-based business and don’t currently have a physical showroom.
For custom bookings, our design process is handled online with lots of visual references, mood boards, and communication to bring your vision to life.
