Postponement Planning - Florals

Danica, on March 30, 2020 at 10:34 AM Posted in Style and Décor 0 10
Hi everyone!


Yesterday was supposed to be our wedding day, but we postponed due to the potential exposure we had from someone at my FH’s work.
That being said, we have postponed until the fall, most likely November. All of our vendors eithe gave us money back or are crediting what we paid towards a new date....except our florist. She kept the funds and won’t credit them at all. So, I am going with different floral options and won’t be using her again.
Since we are still having a microwedding regardless, I was thinking of using wood flowers so the bouquets could be kept as decor (2) and the moms can keep their corsages (2). Has anyone used either Southern Blooms or Sola Wood Flowers? What are your thoughts on both?

    I haven't purchased from sola but I did reach out to their customer service and they were very helpful and nice.

    Wait— your florist didn’t give any of the money back? Had you paid her in full already? Did she already buy the flowers?


    If it was already paid in full, I would have made her make every single centerpiece and bouquet.

    I agree with Karla. Even if you just give them away to strangers.

    Also, I would let it be known through their facebook or other ranking sights. This is no fault of yours and people and companies need to work together in these times.

    In times like these they need to know what to do and specially not just take your money. I’m so sorry!

    Hi Danica,

    I'm so sorry to hear that you had to postpone your wedding and that your florist wasn't flexible about crediting your deposit. On the flip side, it's great to hear that the rest of your vendor team is accommodating this (completely outside of your control) change of plans.

    I found a couple of other WeddingWire discussions that may be helpful:

    Smiley flower Bouquets - Southern Blooms Co

    Smiley flower Sola wood flowers (photos included!)

    Smiley flower Sola Wood Flowers (more photos!)

    I hope you find something gorgeous for you and the moms to keep forever.

    I actually am now looking at Pine and Petals. Out of them all, they have been the best with customer service, custom design and working with my budget. Check them out....they are great!

    Smiley flower That's awesome! Do you mean Pine and Petal (Etsy)? I found a couple of florists on WW with that name as well.

    Yep, these guys: https://pineandpetalweddings.com/

    Based on one of their designs they sent me in the style I was looking for, I am having everything custom made. I'm not one for much color (monochromatic wardrobe over here), so finding someone who had the exact design I wanted in the shades I wanted was a dream. They also come already made, so I don't have put them together (yeah lazy!).
