Hiring a wedding florist in Charleston, SC
Local flowers vs. imports
Working with a local florist in Charleston, SC gives you access to seasonal, locally-grown flowers that are fresher and more affordable than imports. Ask what's in season during your wedding month, you may discover stunning local varieties you wouldn't find at home.
What to budget
Destination wedding florals typically range from $2,000–$8,000+ depending on the scope. A bridal bouquet, ceremony arrangements, and centerpieces are the minimum.

Questions to ask before booking
What flowers are in season during our wedding month? Do you source locally? Can you work with our planner on the design? Will you handle setup and breakdown? What happens if specific flowers aren't available? Do you offer rental pieces (vases, arches)?
When to book
Book your florist 6–9 months before the wedding. If your heart is set on specific flowers, confirm availability early, some blooms only grow in certain seasons in Charleston, SC.
