If you're unsure of colours, check out our Complete Guide to Formal Flowers. If you're still unsure, simply let us know what outfits will be worn, or text through a photo so we can match. We strongly recommend ordering in advance for delivery or pick up on the day of the formal or event itself.

Formal Buttonhole Ordering FAQs

What areas in Sydney can formal flowers be delivered?

Formal flowers delivery is available across many Sydney suburbs, including same day delivery from Monday to Saturday, for orders placed by 12.30pm AEST. Formal flowers are not available on public holidays due to shop closures.

Formal flowers are in particular very delicate, so it's highly recommended that the delivery date selected in the order, is the same day as the formal event.

What happens after I place an order online for formal flowers?

You will receive an email confirmation of your flower order.

If you selected to pick up the flowers and specified a date and approximate time period during checkout, we will have your formal flowers designed and ready to be picked up on the specified date. If we are missing details from you, we will contact you to confirm your pick up.

If you selected local courier delivery, your formal flowers will be transported from our shop in Northbridge to the delivery location by either someone on our team or one of our trusted courier partners. Delivery occurs usually between 8am - 5pm. If you have a preferred time window or cutoff due to the formal time and pre-formal festivities, please select a priority delivery time period and mention the specific deadline in the notes, if any. We do our best to accomodate for any preferences where realistically possible, and will contact you if there is an issue.

After a delivery has been completed, we will notify you usually via SMS or email.

Will the formal lowers I order look like the photos?

The photos online are for colour & textural inspiration - with flowers being seasonal, exact varieties will vary based on its availability and quality throughout the year. We strive our best to substitute for something similar to what you see in the photos at different times of the year. If there's a particular photo or formal design in a photo that you love, please let us know when adding to cart. We ALWAYS do our best to cater for preferences, and will inform you prior to designing if a request is not possible.

We also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If your recipient isn't happy with their flowers, we'll do our best to make sure the issue is resolved.

How do you ensure the formal flowers will survive a delivery?

For all formal flower deliveries, we keep your designs in a presentable box surrounded by tissue paper to cushion the delicacy of the design. Formal flowers are designed by hand meticulously, wired and glued together, and therefore will not be drinking water. For this reason, we recommend taking care of the flowers after they've been delivered so they can remain as fresh as possible until and during your formal event.

What happens if no one is home for the delivery?

This is a very common delivery scenario. Typically there is a safe place to leave the flowers.

If it's a house, we find a shaded spot undercover near the front door or similar.

If an apartment, either at the lobby or we try to buzz a neighbouring unit, to enable us to leave the flowers inside the secure building or at the unit's door.

We usually attempt to contact the recipient to let them know that something has been delivered (unless directed otherwise).

In the absolute worst case scenario, a re-attempt of delivery will be organised at an additional fee for a subsequent date or time. We will always contact you if this is the case.

It's my first time shopping with you - how do I know if you're a reliable florist?

We're a small, locally-owned Sydney florist (not a franchise or order gatherer like Interflora). Every item is hand designed and made in-house by our team of professional florists - so you get consistent quality and real attention to detail.
