Our Aesthetic
The wedding process
Flowers will be custom grown for your wedding, right here in Nelson! We choose the seed, right for your colour pallet, and grow the flower using organic methods. The connection you will feel with the flowers, knowing the nurture that has gone into them will be a wonderful addition to your love story. In addition to growing all the flowers ourselves, we avoid the use of toxic floral foam and single-use plastic, and compost all floral materials on our own farm. Because we are committed to using locally-grown and sustainable flowers, our wedding services are offered during BC’s Southern-Interior growing season, from mid-May through mid-October.
1st Step
Get in touch to receive our wedding flower questionnaire, where you will put down which floral elements you want at your wedding. You will also have an opportunity to share your flower budget, inspiration pictures, and any other details you have in mind for your wedding flowers. After receiving your filled-out form, I will give you some first impressions on which flowers will be in season at the time of your wedding and an initial quote for the arrangements, delivery, and set-up. Once you’ve placed a deposit to secure your date, we will go through all the details regarding vase-ware, venue details, set-up, etc., to finalize the plan.
Why choose Opal’s Flowers for your wedding?
-
You value the importance of flowers in the overall wedding experience and want to plan your wedding around local in-season flowers. When you go into planning your wedding flowers with an aesthetic, rather than having your heart set on a particular flower, there is more room to create lush floral arrangements with diverse blooms. The more flexible you are, the greater the variety of blooms we will have to choose from to create your wedding flower arrangements.
-
You feel better knowing your wedding flowers are sustainable. The flower industry can be an ugly place - with plastic floral foam, toxic pesticides, and worldwide shipping. You'll be happy to know, none of these apply here. Our flowers are grown using natural methods and arranged in chicken-wire and reusable vessels.
