This package consists of the wedding flowers listed above, carefully packed, and shipped to your door. 

All orders for wedding flowers must be placed at least 10 days prior to your desired delivery date and can be placed up to 60 days in advance.

We highly recommend our customers schedule their wedding flowers for delivery 3 days prior to their event. The roses are shipped out of water in an early blooming stage and do require some time to re-hydrate and open properly. If cared for properly, these wedding flowers will last for a long time.

** Special Tips **

Roses:

- Our flower farms pack roses in bunches of 25 stems.  The roses are packed in a two-level system.  When you remove the rose bunch from the box you will only see 12 or 13 roses - the other 12 or 13 roses are packed directly underneath them.

- We highly recommend leaving the plastic wrap around the roses in place for about 6 hours while the roses re-hydrate.

- When you un-wrap the roses, carefully remove any loose or discolored outer petals.  As the rose gradually opens, look for opportunities to refresh the appearance of selected roses by carefully removing additional unsightly petals.

Calla Lilies:

It is important that our customers understand that the calla lilies behave differently than other varieties of flowers:

- Sometimes the calla lilies are shipped with plastic sleeves around the flower heads.  Carefully remove the plastic sleeves upon arrival. 

- When the calla lilies arrive, it is not uncommon for all the flowers in a bunch to bend in the same direction.  Place the flowers in bunches of 10 stems and turn the calla lilies so that the blooms are all bending out in different directions.  Secure the bunches with rubber bands placed at the bottom, in the middle, and up near the top of the stem.  This simple procedure will ensure that your calla lilies will stand tall and strong when put out for display.

- From time to time the small tips (the curly-Q's) of the calla lilies will turn brown.  Our world class calla lily farms have assured us that the browning of the tip is a normal occurrence and in no way compromises the quality or integrity of the flower.  These little tips are the first part of the lily to emerge from the ground and endure much as the flower grows and matures.  To improve the presentation if this condition exists, simply trim the tip (curly-Q) at an angle right below where it begins to turn brown.

As always, please call us if you have any questions.
