Mayfly Flowers
TERMS OF SERVICE
Following an initial consultation, Amy will develop a personalized flower plan for your review. Your flower plan will provide a detailed description of the flower arrangements for your wedding, as well as all the charges associated with your order. If there are specific flowers you want used in your arrangements, Amy will price the order accordingly. If you do not have a flower preference, simply provide the colors and style that you like, as well as a budget guideline, and Amy will create a design plan based on those specifications.
You pay only the actual wholesale cost of flowers!
As a former budget bride, Amy has a special fondness for the DIY couple on a budget. That's why she does not mark up the price of flowers. Your total cost is the actual wholesale costs of your wedding flowers plus a labor fee that covers Amy's time and design expertise. Your Flower Plan Order Confirmation will identify the vendor(s) used, so you can verify all charges.
If you plan to rent design supplies such as vases, candelabras, or other items, you must make those reservations yourself. Make sure that all rented items for use with your flower arrangements are provided at least 3 days prior to your wedding.
If you plan to purchase specific items for use with your floral arrangements (rocks, candles, containers, ribbon, etc), they must be provided at least one week in advance of your wedding. Amy can assist you in selecting these items or identifying a vendor.

Please note: Amy does not remain on-site to relocate floral items from your ceremony to reception and take down service is NOT included. These services would entail an additional fee.
There are no last minute or hidden charges!
At the time you book Amy's services, 75% of your total charges will be due as a down payment. The majority of your deposit directly pays for the cost of your flower order, since Amy orders your flowers immediately to lock in current pricing. The remaining balance is to be paid in full no later than 30 days prior to your wedding. If a flower listed on your flower plan becomes unavailable through the vendor or arrives in poor condition, Amy will either locate it through other sources or will substitute with another variety in a similar style, price, and color (at no extra charge to you!).
Changes to your flower plan must be finalized no later than 30 days prior to your wedding. Any changes made to your approved flower plan will result in repricing your order based on current wholesale costs at the time your change is requested and may increase the amount of your remaining balance to be paid. In the case of a cancellation prior to 30 days before your event Amy will refund 50% of the total payments received to date. No refunds will be issued for cancellations occurring within 30 days of your scheduled event or after services have been rendered.
If you reschedule your wedding date and Amy has your new date available, there are no additional charges unless flower price adjustments are required due to the date change. If your new date is not available, the standard refund policy will apply. Once you provide notice of your intent to reschedule you will have 60 days to confirm the new date with Amy. Failure to confirm your new wedding date within 60 days of rescheduling notification will result in all funds paid to date becoming non-refundable.

Amy accepts cash, check, Venmo or PayPal!
Please note: client is responsible for any fees associated with their payment method.
What will it cost?
Your total cost is determined by the current wholesale price for the amount of flowers selected for your arrangements and Amy's labor fee for the number and type of arrangements you need. Amy has discovered over the years that she is able to save her clients more money by NOT having traditional 'fixed-price' packages or minimum spends, and instead customizing the flower order for each client based on their unique design needs and specific budget requirements.
​
Sample Labor Fees:
*labor varies based on the intricacy of the design and supplies required:
​
Bridal Bouquets $15- $45
Bridesmaid Bouquets $10- $25
Toss Bouquets $10
Hair Wreaths $20- $30
Boutonnieres $4- $8
Corsages $5-$10
Centerpieces $5-$50
Arbors $30-$100
​
As a very general guideline, weddings where Amy is just providing "people flowers" (bouquets, corsages, boutonnieres) price out in the $500-$750 range (and often may cost significantly less than that!). Adding in centerpieces, ceremony decor, and other arrangements will see a corresponding increase in total cost.
Spending a little bit of time together in the beginning of the process to talk through the floral vision for your wedding can pay off with savings in the long run!
Your wedding is the priority!
Amy typically only books one wedding per week so you can rest assured that your wedding will get her undivided attention! For an additional fee, she can schedule time with you to visit local shops to pick out design items, join you for a venue walk-through, or develop mock-up arrangements using sample bunches ordered from the vendors. Sneak-peek preview pictures are always made available to clients as Amy is putting together the arrangements!
Disclaimer
In rare instances, a flower variety becomes unavailable at the last minute due to grower shortages or arrives in poor condition due to stresses in transit. In that event, Amy will make every effort to replace the flowers with the same variety. However, Amy reserves the right to make substitutions with any flower in a similar color, size, shape, and price range that she feels would work with your overall floral design plan.
