Can I change my flower choices after I book?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can usually adjust your flower choices after booking, especially in the months before the wedding when the design is still flexible. Small changes are easy up to your final count deadline, while large changes get harder as the date nears and flowers are ordered. Booking secures your date and a direction, not an unchangeable blueprint. In the months between booking and your final deadline, you can refine colors, swap flowers, adjust piece counts, and evolve the vision as your other details come together. This is normal and expected; designs mature as the wedding takes shape. Just keep your florist informed as your ideas shift so the proposal stays accurate. The earlier you raise a change, the more smoothly it fits into the plan. Flexibility narrows near the end. Once you pass the final count deadline, usually one to two weeks out, and flowers are ordered for your specific date, big changes become difficult or impossible. Small tweaks like adding a boutonniere may still work, though last-minute additions can cost more. Seasonal availability also limits substitutions late in the game. If you sense a change coming, raise it as early as you can rather than waiting, so your florist has room to make it happen well. Communication is everything. Reach out to your florist directly whenever your vision shifts, and confirm any change in writing so both sides share the same understanding. Ask how a change affects the price before committing. Our Bentley Florist team is glad to evolve a design with couples throughout planning; we would much rather adjust early than surprise anyone at the end. Review your contract too, since it explains how changes are handled and any deadlines that apply.
