How to Organise a Beautiful Flower Arrangment for your Gold Coast Event
How to Organise a Beautiful Flower Arrangement for Your Gold Coast Event
Planning the perfect floral arrangement for your next event can elevate the atmosphere, leaving a lasting impression on your guests. Whether it’s a corporate gathering, an illustrious soiree or private party, here’s how to ensure your flowers are flawless.
1. Define Your Budget and Flower Needs
Start by determining your budget. Knowing how much you can spend helps narrow down your choices, making it easier to select flowers that fit both your vision and your price range. Decide on the types of arrangements you need: bouquets, table centerpieces, or arch displays. Clear communication with your florist will ensure the best results. Flowers are a premium product, but the Flowers Gold Coast team can work with you to ensure the best outcome based on your needs.
2. Choose In-Season Blooms
Gold Coast’s sunny climate makes it perfect for many flowers, but be sure to pick flowers that are in-season to get the freshest, most vibrant blooms. This is especially important for outdoor events where durability is key and the weather is hot.
3. Venue Considerations
Before finalising your order, check with your venue about flower placement and delivery logistics. Make sure they can accept deliveries ahead of time and have ample space for arrangements. Visualise where the flowers will be placed – for example, at the entrance, on dining tables, or as part of a backdrop. Venues often have packdown requirements and timelines so its best to ensure that you have everything planned out!
4. Plan for the Weather
If your event is outdoors, the Gold Coast heat can be harsh on flowers. Choose hardy varieties that can withstand the temperature, and talk to your florist about setting up the arrangements closer to the event start time to keep them fresh for as long as possible.
5. Plan Ahead
While Flowers Gold Coast offers Same Day Flower Delivery across the Gold Coast Monday to Sunday, for orders placed by 3pm, and to Brisbane & Logan suburbs Monday to Friday for orders placed by 11am. There's nothing worse than having a last minute order with extremely specific requirements that we're unable to assist with, so planning ahead is critical to ensure we can help you to the best of our ability. Our dedicated Events team are here to help you create stunning, lasting arrangements that will make your event unforgettable.
6. Think about what to do afterwards
Your flowers will last more than one day! We hate hearing about Flowers being thrown out the next day, as our wonderful blooms deserve to be enjoyed by as many people as possible.
We always recommend giving them to guests to take home, or, additionally, we can offer our packdwon services to assist in relocating your flowers, we partner up with Aged Care & Elderly Services to supply flowers for their residents as stimulating & fun workshops to partake in
7. Have fun with it!
Planning & Organising events is challenging, tiring, and often fraught with last minute changes causing a lot of stress, but ensure that you take a moment to enjoy the event itself and what comes with it, and if you have questions, or concerns, let us know and we'd be happy to help organise your Flowers for your next event!
