Floral Frequently Asked Questions:

Q How far in advance do you usually have to place your flower order?
A We recommend a minimum of four to six weeks prior to the wedding date. If you call to set up an interview time, we can ensure that one of our floral designers will have the time set aside for you.

Q Can silk flowers be substituted for fresh flowers?
A We have a wide selection of silk flowers, but would like a few weeks’ notice to order any flowers not in stock.

Q If I want fresh flowers on my wedding cake, who takes care of that?
A We will work with both you and the bakery to ensure that your desires are coordinated.

Q Is there a minimum price range for weddings?
A No. We do weddings in any price range and will work with you to stay within your budget.

Q What about rentals on wedding equipment?
A We have wedding equipment for rent with or without flowers.

Q Do you deliver and set up for the wedding?
A We will deliver and set up for your wedding for a nominal fee.

Q Is there a deposit required?
A We do require a 25% deposit at the time of booking, with the remaining balance due before delivery and set up.

Your Windmill florist will need some information from you about your church or selected wedding environment:

• How many rows of pews or chairs will there be?
• What are your church's procedures for wedding decorations?
• Does the church have their own wedding equipment?
• How long is the aisle (for the aisle carpet)?
