Cut the Stems: Trim the stems of your flowers at an angle using sharp scissors or a knife.

Hydrate the Flowers: Place the flowers in water as soon as event is over until you are ready to ship them. We recommend you send your blooms within 1-2 days following your wedding or big event.

Wrap the Stems: Wrap the stems in damp paper towels and Saran wrap or floral water tubes to keep them moist during transit.

Protect the Blooms: Wrap the flower heads loosely in tissue paper or soft material, or use a flower bag to protect the delicate petals.

Box Size: Select a sturdy, appropriately sized box that’s large enough to accommodate the flowers without bending or crushing them, with some space for padding.

Insulation: If you're shipping in warm weather or over long distances, consider using an insulated box or adding cold packs to keep the flowers fresh.

Positioning: Place the flowers inside the box carefully, with the stems at the bottom and the blooms at the top.

Stabilization: Use bubble wrap, packing peanuts, or crumpled newspaper to fill any gaps around the flowers, ensuring they don’t move during transit.

Layering: If you're packing multiple layers of flowers, separate each layer with cardboard or more tissue paper.

Close the Box: Securely close the box, using packing tape to seal all edges.

Labeling: Label the box with “Fragile” and “This Side Up” stickers to inform the courier of the contents.

Courier Selection: Choose a reliable courier service that offers next-day or two-day delivery to minimize the time the flowers spend in transit.

Tracking: Opt for a service with tracking options so you can monitor the shipment’s progress.

Shipping Address: Make sure you have our correct shipping address.

Contact Information: I’ll provide you with our contact details in case the courier needs to reach us upon delivery.

Send a Confirmation: Notify us as soon as the flowers are shipped and provide the tracking number so we can track the delivery and ensure timely reception.

Following these steps will help ensure your flowers arrive in the best possible condition. :)
