What Your Special Event Flowers Can Cost

January 08, 2018

When you're putting your event decor plan together, unless it's incredibly sparse or avant-garde, at least some of your event decor is going to include flowers.

Here is a breakdown of the most popular floral decor items with average starting prices.

Note that luxury-name florists will charge much more than these price guide estimates - and you'll need to book them as soon as you've paid and secured your venue space.

Why?

Because if they're good and/or popular, they can usually only handle floristry arrangements and installations for up to two events per day maximum, up to three if they're a large floral company.

• Gazebo flower arrangements - from $75
• Flowers for an arch or arbour - from $150
• Real garlands - from $50 per metre
• Faux rose garland hire - from $2.50 per metre
• Venue entrance flowers on pedestals - from $100 each
• VIP table garland - from $200
• Centrepiece and vase hire - from $10 each
• Faux floral wall hire (excluding delivery & installation) - from $450
• Foliage wall hire (excluding delivery & installation) - from $450
• Floral chandeliers - from $1,000
• Succulents as guest favours - from $10 each
• Olive sapling bomboniere - from $5 each
