HOW TO SEND YOUR FLOWERS

Here are our simple instructions for posting your flowers to us.
We promise, it is really not as tricky or scary as it first sounds. We receive about lots of bouquets every weeks through the post and they are always absolutely fine! Just follow these instructions carefully and your bouquet will be perfectly happy.
​
STEP 1:
Picture
Find a box the right size to fit your bouquet. If it is not quite tall enough you can always chop an inch off the bottom of the stems. Don't be scared - it's actually good for the flowers as they will drink better.
Make sure the box is not more that 60cms tall or the post office will make you use a more expensive option. 
Write our address and 'FRAGILE FRESH FLOWERS' on the box. This is already done for you if you have our P&P pack.
STEP 2:
STEP 3:

Put a cardboard florists vase in the centre of your box. You could improvise with something similar, or you can buy one cheaply here on Amazon if you still have time. Alternatively it is included in our P&P pack.
If you are super organised, you could even take the florists vase to the wedding venue to put the bouquet in once you no longer need it.

Scrunch up newspaper pages and stuff them around the edges of the box to hold it securely in place.
Do not use any bubble wrap or it might make your flowers sweat.
If you are including any other keepsakes in the box, do NOT wrap them in newspaper or we might not see them. Wrap in a sandwich bag so they don't get wet.

STEP 6:

Trim the stems a little if you are feeling brave. The bottoms will have sealed themselves up since your florist made the bouquet so you will be helping them to drink better.
Wet some kitchen paper and fold it up around the BOTTOM of the stems. Don't just wrap it around the sides. They drink from the bottom.

Put a sandwich bag around the kitchen paper and the bottom of the stems. This will stop the water from leaking all over the rest of your box.
Use an elastic band to secure the plastic bag in place.

Put the bouquet carefully into the cardboard vase. It should fit quite snugly and not move around too much. Put some more newspaper in the vase if your bouquet is too wobbly.

STEP 7:

Pack some more newspaper loosely around the sides and top of the bouquet.
STEP 8:
Picture
Fill in the form if you have purchased our P&P Pack or otherwise just include a piece of paper with all your details written on it. Please include your full name and your chosen style of preservation .
STEP 9:
Picture
Seal the box closed with sellotape. The address is already written on the box if you purchased a P&P Pack, or just ask us for the address if not.
Take it to the post office and ask for Special Delivery Before 1pm Service. It should cost about £11 or £12.

BUY A P&P PACK...

Picture
All of these items are pretty easy to come by but many brides want one less item on their to do list before the big day. 

For an extra £10, we can send you a P&P pack which contains all the items mentioned above. It will all be delivered to your door in a convenient bundle three weeks before your wedding.

This is a great option if you are asking a friend or family  member to post the flowers for you if you are jetting straight off on honeymoon. The P&P pack will make it so easy for them to package the bouquet safely without any stress for them or you.

Please let us know if you would like one of these bundles sent out to you. Don't leave it too late!

If you don't want to purchase a P&P Pack, these are the things you need to gather together before the wedding.

Don't leave it until the morning after! You will be hung over/trying to pack for honeymoon/opening presents/looking at wedding photos on social media.
