a la carte
how it works
Browse our A La Carte Collections to find the one that suits the color palette and style for your wedding or event. Then head over to the A La Carte Menu and build your own perfect floral package! As you select each item, be sure to indicate your favorite collection and a vase style to match. At check out, you’ll provide us with your delivery details and then sit back and relax while your gorgeous florals are taken care of by the experts!
​
We'll source the very best blooms and foliage to capture your chosen Collection’s color palette and style - prioritizing seasonal, locally grown flowers as much as possible. In the days leading up to your event, we'll send you sneak peak photos from the design studio!
the details
Fill your cart with what you need and check out with no payment required. We will follow up via email to let you know if we are available for your date, and to verify your order details. If we are available, we will send you a contract and an invoice with instructions to mail a paper check. All orders must be placed and paid for at least 5 weeks prior* to the wedding/event date and meet a minimum total floral purchase of $750 before delivery and tax. This ensures that we have ample time to source the very best quality blooms for every order.
Delivery
We recommend having your flowers delivered on the day of your wedding/event to ensure the freshest blooms possible, but anytime up to 24 hours before your event should be perfectly fine. Wearable flowers like boutonnieres, corsages and flower crowns can be stored (with some special care) in a standard refrigerator until the event. All of the care and handling information you will need for your order will be included with your delivery.
We deliver throughout Jacksonville and the beaches, Ponte Vedra, St. Augustine, Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island. At checkout, your delivery fee will be determined by the 5-digit zip code of the venue/location. All deliveries include one location drop-off service only. Additional locations incur additional fees. If you would like to schedule delivery to multiple locations, please send an email to botanicraftfloral@gmail.com and we can make those arrangements and send a pay link for the additional fee(s).
On delivery day, our staff will meet with you (or your coordinator/day-of flower helper) to go over your itemized order and sign the delivery slip. All of our flowers are ordered with precise timing in mind and expertly conditioned to ensure blooms are at their peak for your event - that means perfectly opened roses, not tight buds. We include care instructions in your confirmation email to help you keep the arrangements in top condition. Botanicraft Floral is not responsible for the condition of the flowers, or for their unpacking and placement, after the delivery has been signed for and accepted.
​
Cancellations/Refunds/Order Changes
All changes to item quantities (table centerpieces, boutonnieres, etc) will be due at the 5 week deadline and those changes may not bring the order total before delivery to lower than the $750 minimum. Changes to delivery location or time, and any incurred fees, will be due 2 weeks prior to the event.
If you need to cancel or postpone for whatever reason, you may do so up to 4 weeks prior to your event. All postponements and cancellations will be subject to a $50 admin fee. No refunds will be given once the 4 week deadline has passed, as flower orders to our wholesaler can not be cancelled at that point.
A Note on Florida Hurricanes: We highly recommend you look into wedding/event insurance if your event takes place during hurricane season. While we will make every effort to accommodate a last minute cancellation or postponement due to a hurricane, full refunds will not be applicable.

frequently asked questions
Ordering
When should I place my A La Carte Order?
You can place your order anytime up to 5 weeks before your wedding date!
Are you available on “X” date?
Most likely yes, but please feel free to contact us to check first! We take A La Carte orders 5 days a week, excluding Sundays and Mondays, but we may be willing to make an exception for you with enough notice. We also pause orders for a summer break in July, when the event season is at a slow point. In the instance that you place an order on a fully booked date, we will make sure to contact you upon receiving your order.
Can I place my order for a Sunday or holiday?
Though we may be able to accommodate a Sunday or Monday delivery given enough notice, no A La Carte events or weddings will be delivered on major holidays, especially floral holidays such as Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day.
Can I have my order delivered the day before my wedding or event?
Yes! We always recommend having your order delivered on the day of your event for maximum freshness. However, we understand that is not always possible. If you need your florals early, we recommend keeping them in a cool and dark place away from any direct sunlight or heat source - ideally, in a room with no light and the AC cranked down to 60-65. Make sure to replenish the water in vases and low design dishes. You will receive thorough care instructions with your confirmation email and with your delivery.
Can I add to my order?
Yes, you may place as many orders as you need as long as it is before our 5 week deadline. We will add subsequent orders to your original.​
Customizations
Can I customize my A La Carte Order?
In order to keep the process streamlined and affordable, we do not offer customizations. Some slight changes may be allowed if they do not affect the integrity of the original design. Make your requests known when checking out in the notes section. We will do our best to accommodate but please know it is not a 100% guarantee! Some customizations we have allowed in the past are slight color changes and *reasonable* floral variety requests (some high-end blooms would totally blow the budget, sorry!).
Will my bouquet/design look exactly like the photo?
No, but that is not a bad thing! Flowers are unique and vary depending on the time of year. Take peace in knowing that your bouquet will be made uniquely for you and will not look like every other bouquet in the same collection. We always try to source unique blooms to make your florals extra special, regardless of the season.
General
What if I don’t want a big bouquet?
Many brides choose the bridesmaid bouquet for a more understated option! But we do think most brides will be happiest with our Primary Wedding bouquet size. If what you want is a super show-stopper, though, we have an option for that too!
What do you recommend for a ceremony space?
We have a few great options! Our floral clusters make a beautiful addition to an arbor of any shape - they’re easily attached with extra large, extra strong zip-ties. Don’t have an arbor? No problem! Combine our ground floral designs into a nest shape or use them to line your aisle. Or consider displaying an Entrance Showpiece or Display Florals on a lovely pedestal or decorative table.
Do you offer bulk flowers?
Yes we do! Each collection comes with a bulk bucket option, featuring a specific number of stems in the collection's color palette. Just select as many buckets as you need to suit your event. Flowers and greenery are conditioned, hydrated and delivered in a bucket of water so they’re ready for your to design!
I don’t see “X” on the menu, do you have it available?
We do our best to keep our menu simple without an overwhelming amount of options. What you see online is all we have available at this time. We are open to suggestions and if there is a large enough demand for a certain item, we will add it!
I have another question - Can I email you?
Of course! We’d be happy to help! botanicraftfloral@gmail.com
Changes/Cancellations
Can I cancel my A La Carte order?
You may cancel your order no later than 4 weeks before your event date.
Do you offer refunds?
We will give a full refund if the order is 4 weeks prior. Note that you will be charged a $50 admin fee. No refunds will be given after the 4 week deadline.
Can I make changes to my flower order once it has been placed?
Yes, but all changes to item quantities (table centerpieces, boutonnieres, etc) will be due at the 5 week deadline and those changes may not bring the order total before delivery to lower than the $750 minimum.
Can I change my delivery time/location?
Yes, if you would like to change a delivery time/location or pay for an additional delivery service, please do so at least 2 weeks prior to your event date. Changes after that will not be allowed.​​
