Wedding Flowers That Feel Like You, Not Like Everyone Else

---

You've imagined this day a thousand times. The way the light will fall, the look on their face when they see you, the flowers that make it all feel real.

We get it. Wedding florals aren't just decoration. They're the scent that fills the room when you walk down the aisle. The bouquet you'll clutch during the best nervous moments of your life. The centerpieces your guests will lean across while toasting to your future. Flowers hold the feeling of the day long after it's over.

At Lovingly Charlotte, we believe your wedding flowers should be as intentional as the person you're choosing to marry. That's why we design completely à la carte with no pre-set packages. You tell us what matters most, and we pour our hearts into exactly that.

Maybe it's a breathtaking ceremony arch that makes everyone gasp. Maybe it's hand-tied garden bouquets with that effortless, just-picked look. Maybe it's keeping things beautifully simple so you can splurge on the moments that matter most to you. Whatever your vision, we'll help you bring it to life stem by stem, detail by detail.

We've been part of Charlotte love stories for 16 years, and there's still nothing that moves us more than watching a couple see their wedding flowers for the first time. That moment when the vision in your head becomes real, tangible, yours. That's why we do this! 

  

How À La Carte Wedding Florals Work

---

No packages. No pressure. Just flowers you actually want.

1. Free Initial Consultation (In-Person or Virtual)

We meet at our Charlotte studio or via video call. Bring inspiration photos, your venue details, and your budget range. We'll walk you through:

• Which flowers are in season for your wedding date
• How à la carte pricing works- you pay per arrangement, not forced bundles
• Realistic budget expectations based on guest count and style
• Our wholesale advantage and we access fresher blooms at better prices

2. Custom Proposal Within 48 Hours

You'll receive an itemized quote listing every arrangement- bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, centerpieces, ceremony arrangements, etc.

Add, remove, or adjust anything. No pressure to purchase "recommended packages." This is your day. You decide what stays and what goes.

3. Design Refinement 

We revise your proposal until it's exactly right, usually 1-2 rounds of edits. Want to swap peonies for garden roses? Prefer a taller ceremony arrangement? Need to bring costs down by simplifying table florals?

We'll work with you until you feel confident you're getting exactly what you want, nothing you don't.

4. Final Walkthrough 2 Weeks Before Your Wedding

We confirm delivery logistics, setup timelines, and any last-minute tweaks. You'll know exactly what to expect on your wedding. No surprises, no stress!

5. Delivery & Setup on Your Wedding Day

Our team delivers and arranges everything at your venue. You focus on getting married; we handle the flowers.

What Makes Us Different

We Source Direct from Charlotte's Wholesale Flower Market

Most florists order from distributors who mark up wholesale prices 200-300%. We buy direct from Charlotte's wholesale flower market daily, accessing:

• Fresher blooms harvested 24-48 hours before your wedding (vs. week-old distributor stock)
• Lower costs- we pass wholesale savings to you, typically 30-40% less than competitors
• Wider selection of seasonal varieties other florists can't source

16 Years of Charlotte Wedding Expertise

Tammy Graham, our lead designer, has spent over a decade getting to know Charlotte weddings, the venues, the seasons, what photographs beautifully in our Carolina light. She loves helping couples bring their vision to life.

As part of the Charlotte Flower Market family, we've designed florals for hundreds of Charlotte weddings. We know which flowers hold up in June heat, what looks stunning at The Diary Barn vs. The Mint Museum, and how to make your budget work harder for you.

Flexible, Customizable Design, Not Cookie-Cutter Packages

Some couples want a show-stopping ceremony arch. Others want the focus on their bouquet. Some want lush centerpieces everywhere, and some prefer to keep it simple.

We don't force you into pre-set packages. You choose what matters to you, and we design around that. It's your wedding. It should feel like you.

  

Frequently Asked Questions  

---

What does "à la carte" wedding flowers mean?

Instead of buying pre-set packages, you choose each arrangement individually- bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets, centerpieces, etc.- pay only for what you want.

Many florists force you to purchase bundled packages that include things you don't need. À la carte means you control your budget by selecting exactly what matters to you.

How much do wedding flowers cost in Charlotte?

Wedding floral budgets in Charlotte typically range from $800 (intimate ceremonies) to $5,000+ (large receptions with full ceremony and reception florals).

Most couples we work with invest between $2,000-$3,500 for complete wedding florals.

À la carte pricing lets you control costs by selecting exactly what matters to you. Want to splurge on your bridal bouquet and keep centerpieces simple? You can do that. Prefer to invest in a stunning ceremony installation and skip boutonnieres? That works too.

What's your advantage over grocery store flowers or DIY?

We buy wholesale daily from Charlotte's flower market, accessing higher-quality blooms at lower cost than retail. Plus, we handle design, delivery, and setup&mdashsaving you stress on your wedding day.

DIY can work for very small weddings, but most couples underestimate the time, skill, and refrigeration space needed. We've seen couples spend just as much (or more) at grocery stores for lower-quality results.

When you work with us, you get professional design + wholesale pricing + stress-free execution.

How far in advance should we book?

We recommend booking 6-9 months in advance for peak wedding season (April-October). For off-season weddings (November-March), 3-4 months is usually sufficient.

That said, we've worked magic for couples with shorter timelines. If your wedding is coming up soon, reach out and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

Do you deliver and set up wedding flowers?

Yes! Delivery and setup are included in your quote. We arrive at your venue on your wedding day, arrange everything exactly as planned, and ensure it all looks perfect before guests arrive.

You won't have to worry about a thing.

Can we see samples before our wedding?

While we don't typically do full floral mockups (perishable nature of flowers makes this cost-prohibitive), we'll show you photos of similar designs we've created, color samples, and can bring a few blooms to your consultation if you want to see specific flowers in person.

Our 5.0-star reviews and 16 years in business reflect our commitment to delivering exactly what we promise. You'll feel confident by the time your proposal is finalized.

What happens if our wedding date changes?

We understand plans can shift. If you need to change your wedding date, we'll do our best to accommodate the new date. As long as flowers are available and we have availability, we'll transfer everything to your new date at no additional charge.

If we can't accommodate the new date, we'll work with you on next steps.

Do you work with our venue's preferred vendor list?

We've worked with most major Charlotte venues and are happy to coordinate with your venue's team. Whether you're getting married at The Dairy Barn, Mint Museum, Foundation for the Carolinas, or a private estate, we'll handle all logistics with your venue coordinator.
