We do weddings a little differently around here.
From growing stems just for you at our own farm, to crafting your design and arranging your flowers at our studio, every step of our process is thoughtful, intentional and joyful.
Whether you’re looking for something simple and seasonal or unique and creative, we’ll meet you where you are, collaborate to create a look that feels like you, and make your day beautiful with our whimsical, garden-inspired style.
Our designs are intentional, effortless and beautiful. Never stuffy, boring or outdated. Always guided by the seasons and the best of what nature has to offer.
Our design philosophy is simple, and it starts with using the best materials available. When flowers are grown with care, harvested at the right time, and used in season, they already hold so much character, beauty and shape. Over the years we’ve observed nature’s patterns and have learned when specific varieties shine and how to let them lead.
Just like a chef builds a dish around peak produce, this approach begins with what’s freshest, and growing our own flowers and working with other local farms allows us prime access to what’s in season. Technique still plays a role of course, but it’s in service of the materials. The result feels organic and effortless, rather than showy or forced: bouquets and arrangements that feel grounded, intentional and full of life. The beauty lingers not because it was complicated, but because it was made with care, respect, and the very best ingredients available.
THE PROCESS
We offer both full service design and a la carte flowers, and have options for any type of set up and budget. We aim to make the process stress-free and fun, so you can enjoy planning your wedding as much as the big day itself. You can count on our team’s attention to detail, excellent service, and most of all, a passion for creating a stunning and memorable day for you and your loved ones to enjoy.
Fill out the inquiry form below to get started and we’ll set up a time to chat to ensure we’re a good fit. We’ll discuss the overall vibe you’re envisioning and what you think you might need in terms of flowers (don’t worry if you don’t have all the details ironed out at this point).
From there we’ll send a proposal, and if you'd like to move forward a 25% retainer and contract secures your date.
We’ll get to work on your design, and schedule a meeting, either in person at our studio or virtually, to review details together, select vases, and make sure everything is feeling great (this is the fun part!).
Your balance will be due two weeks before your wedding and any adjustments can be made until then. We’re always in your corner and offer unlimited communication throughout the planning process.

FAQs
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FULL SERVICE AND A LA CARTE FLOWERS?
They are both great options and it comes down to the level of service and customization you’re seeking. Full service includes a curated design accounting for specific details such as flower varieties, colors, vases, ribbons, etc.. It also includes full setup and installation, breakdown, processing and composting of flowers, a personalized design meeting and plan, unlimited communication, and an optional site visit. A la carte is simple and straightforward: we use only seasonal flower varieties that we’re growing at the farm, working with your general color palette and our own standardized vases. Beautiful designs, just a different level of customization. It also doesn’t include setup, installation or breakdown. We can deliver to your venue for a flat hourly rate, but you would be responsible for setup and cleanup.
how far do you travel?
We’re located in Dover, NH and will happily travel throughout the New England region.
do you have a minimum spend?
Our full service florals begin at $6,000, which includes custom design, an in person (or video) design meeting, an optional site visit, setup and installation, breakdown and clean up, access to our rental inventory, and unlimited communication throughout the process. This threshold allows us to take on a limited amount of weddings throughout the season and put our full focus, intention and care into the design and execution of each event. For a la carte flowers and smaller scale options without any custom design or installations, the minimum spend is $300.
ARE VASES INCLUDED?
Absolutely! Our full services clients have access to our rental inventory of vases, and we’ll discuss design details during the planning process. A la carte floral packages include vases and do not include custom choice of vessels or breakdown.
DO YOU OFFER CANDLES?
We do! Full service clients have access to our rental inventory, and we’ll work together on the design. You are not required to use our candles if you would prefer to source elsewhere. A la carte floral packages do not include candles.
where do you source your flowers?
We use as many flowers from our own farm as possible! This allows us to grow flowers specifically for each design, which creates a more meaningful connection between the couples and their flowers. When we need to supplement, we source from a network of other local growers and trusted wholesalers.
what is an average spend on wedding flowers?
While pricing can vary based on factors such as guest count, bridal party size, location, other additions such as candles, etc. Most couples spend an average of 10% of their overall wedding budget on flowers. Here at Nowadays, our couples typically spend between $7,000-$10,000 and we require a minimum investment of $6,000 for full service weddings. We offer a la carte items for budget-friendly options under that threshold (this option does not include custom design).
