Yes, we offer both! For your bridal party flowers, you have the flexibility to choose between fresh flowers, real-touch silk flowers, or even a combination of both. Our real-touch silk flowers are of the highest quality, ensuring that whether you opt for fresh or silk flowers, both choices will meet the highest standards of perfection.
For ceremony and reception florals, we exclusively offer silk flowers, as these are available for hire only. This allows us to create stunning, long-lasting displays for your special day.
Absolutely! Whether you choose fresh or silk flowers for your bridal party, your floral arrangements are custom made just for you and are yours to keep.
If you’ve selected our real-touch silk florals, you’ll have a bouquet that lasts a lifetime!
If you’re booked in for a consultation, you might be wondering what to expect. At Dream Weddings and Events, we offer an initial consultation to meet with you and explore all the options for your wedding. This consultation is completely free of charge, as well as any quotes we send out to you.
We offer both in-person consultations at our showroom in Altona (3018 VIC) and video calls via Zoom for brides located further away.
For in-person appointments, you’ll have the opportunity to explore our showroom for inspiration and see how your ideas can come to life. This is a great chance to get a clear picture of what your wedding could look like.
We recommend allowing 1.5 to 2 hours for the initial consultation. It’s helpful to bring reference or inspirational photos – Pinterest is a great resource for this! However, if you’re unsure where to start or still need guidance, our wedding coordinators are happy to assist and walk you through the process.
During the consultation, your wedding coordinator will guide you through the three main areas of your wedding:
Bridal Party Flowers
Ceremony Decor
Reception Decor
We break everything down step by step to ensure that nothing is overlooked.
Once all the details are discussed, our team will begin working on your personalized quote, which will be sent to you via email. The standard turnaround time for a quote is 5 business days, though larger quotes may take a bit longer. If there are any delays, we’ll be sure to keep you updated.
You’re always welcome to book follow-up consultations as your plans evolve. We understand that things can change, and we’re happy to work with you throughout you wedding planning journey!
The earlier, the better! As a guide we recommend for weddings, to book about 6 months before your wedding date, and for events, about 3 months prior to your event. Once we send you an initial quote, there may be some back and forth as we make adjustments to ensure everything is just right. The quote is valid for a 3-month period, giving you time to lock in that quote.
Once your date and decor are locked in with us, you are still more than welcome to make changes along the way! We recommend having all decor finalized 3 weeks prior to your wedding or event.
Booking early gives you plenty of time to make decisions and ensure everything aligns with your vision.
To secure your date and decor, a 20% non-refundable deposit is required, as outlined in your quote. This deposit must be paid within the 3-month period after receiving your quote. If the deposit is not received within this timeframe, another consultation may be necessary, and a new quote will be provided.
The final payment for your wedding or event is due 10 days prior to the event date.
During your initial consultation, we’ll ask for your venue’s bump-in and bump-out times (the earliest we can set-up and the earliest we can pack everything away). If you’re unsure, that’s not a problem! We can always ask you to double-check with your venue coordinator, and we’re happy to liaise directly with the venue on your behalf.
On the day of your wedding or event, we’ll stick to the agreed-upon times and ensure everything is set up and styled to perfection within the allocated time. There’s no need to contact us on the day – we’ll have a detailed plan in place ahead of your special day. We ask that you simply enjoy the day, while our experienced team works seamlessly behind the scenes to bring your vision to life!
We typically request a minimum 2-hour time slot to ensure every detail is executed to the highest standard. Depending on the scale of your event, we may require a minimum 3-hour time slot. However, if your venue has stricter time constraints, our team will work efficiently to ensure everything is completed seamlessly and according to plan.
At Dream Weddings and Events, we do not set a minimum spend for your decor and styling. Whether you are planning an intimate micro wedding or a grand celebration, we cater to brides of all styles.
We certainly do! The majority of our decor and equipment is available for hire, and you’re more than welcome to hire directly from us and style your own wedding or event.
We ask that you ensure you have the proper means of transportation for the decor (such as a van or large car). Our hire equipment is available on a 3-day contract, in which a refundable bond will be required and will be returned back to you once the equipment is returned.
