Money!!! Boo!
Are you scared yet?
Let’s be real. Talking about money can feel intimidating, especially when it comes to putting a number on something as meaningful as your wedding or special event. But here’s the thing: we’re not afraid of your budget. As an Arizona wedding florist, we actually need to know it so we can create something that fits both your vision and your price range.
Florists ask for your budget because it helps us design intentionally. We work backwards from your number to craft arrangements that make the most impact without stretching beyond your comfort zone. Like a chef writing a recipe, we build floral “recipes” for every arrangement. These tell us how many stems we can use, which varieties, and how to balance your preferences with seasonal availability and scale.
Flowers come in a wide range of styles and price points. If you love luxurious blooms like orchids, ranunculus, and garden roses, your total will look very different from someone who prefers daisies and carnations. There’s no right or wrong answer it just comes down to your style and priorities.
Some florists use a price sheet with set costs for bouquets, centerpieces, and other designs. That usually means they follow a specific formula, which works well for people who like consistent, repeatable styles.
At FERN Floral Studio, we take a custom approach. Every design is original and created specifically for your event. Whether you’re planning a wedding in Scottsdale, a brand activation in Phoenix, or a small ceremony in Sedona, we build your flowers to reflect you—not a template.
We also launched our Arizona flower truck this year, which brings mobile blooms to events, popups, and celebrations across the state. We’re happy to travel wherever we’re needed, whether that’s Phoenix, Scottsdale, Sedona, or beyond.
At the end of the day, your budget is about what matters most to you. Maybe your venue is your big splurge. Maybe you’ve been dreaming of a lush floral arch or a flower-filled aisle. Whatever your priorities are, we want to help you get the best possible result without wasting time or money.
