Wedding FAQs

1. How much do wedding flowers cost in Melbourne?

Wedding florals in Melbourne typically range from $3,000 for a small, intimate wedding to $10,000+ for larger celebrations with full ceremony and reception styling. At Herbivore, most couples invest between $5,000 and $15,000, depending on guest numbers, venue size, and whether the design includes large-scale installations like arbours or ceiling florals. We provide an itemised quote after an initial consultation, so you know exactly what's included.

2. How far in advance should I book a wedding florist in Melbourne?

Most Melbourne couples book their florist 6–12 months before the wedding, especially for peak season dates (spring and autumn) or for weekend weddings at popular venues. Herbivore recommends booking as early as possible once your venue and date are confirmed, since we take on a limited number of weddings each month to ensure every design gets full attention.

3. Does Herbivore work at my wedding venue?

Herbivore regularly designs for premium Melbourne venues, including ballroom, heritage, and Yarra Valley estate weddings, and we're always adding new locations. If your venue isn't listed on our site, get in touch — we'll talk through load-in requirements, styling restrictions, and what's possible in your specific space before you book.

4. What's included in a wedding florist consultation?

A Herbivore wedding consultation covers your colour palette, style inspiration, venue layout, and guest count, and ends with a tailored, itemised quote covering bouquets, ceremony florals, reception centrepieces, delivery, setup, and pack-down. Consultations can be booked online and typically take 30–45 minutes, either in person or via video call.

5. Will my wedding flowers be in season?

Yes — Herbivore designs primarily with seasonal, Melbourne-appropriate blooms, which keeps quality high and gives you the freshest possible result on the day. If you have your heart set on a specific out-of-season flower, we'll let you know upfront and suggest a close seasonal alternative that achieves the same look.
