OK – so Black Friday was a phenomenal success, Small Business Saturday is getting a foothold and Cyber Monday consumed those who had not yet completed their shopping during the previous 2 events. Is it possible that YOU still have shopping to do? If so, do not panic! The simplest shopping experience is still available to you – call us and we will handcraft and deliver a beautiful gift right to your loved one’s door.

This is an especially appealing option for friends and family who don’t live near each other and want to make a big impact. Opening one’s front door to see a plain brown box with something unknown inside is OK. Answering the door for a smiling gal holding a beautiful arrangement of flowers, candy, fruit or just about anything else really makes an impact!

Call us at 619-516-5544, e-mail to julie@michaelsflowergirl.com or shop on-line to take care of those last holiday gifts on your list!

Lets face it, everyone is on a budget these days.Even if we are not, doesn’t it pay to figure out how to get more bang for your buck? At Michael’s Flower Girl we have been doing wedding flowers for over 20 years in San Diego and have a few tricks to share.

1) Be sensitive to seasonality. Red roses in the middle of Feb are 2 times as much as they are any other time of the year. This is going to drive up the cost. So either pick a different color rose or different flower in red.
2) Price is driven by flower type, flower count, and difficulty of construction. This may seem obvious but if you are shopping florists, and someone is much less expensive, make sure you are comparing apples to apples. If the price is too good to be true, it probably is. Ask the florist to specify how many of each stem they plan to use for that price.  Be clear on exactly what you are getting for your money.

3)  Make sure you look at the complete price.  If you are going to pick up the flowers, this isn’t hard but if you are going to need delivery and set up, make sure this is included in the quote.  You would be surprised how many brides think they have a great deal only to realize that they had left off rental of the glassware or set up.

4)  Ask your florist to loan you the center piece containers or provide them yourself.  This can save you large amounts of money and can provide you much more elaborate containers than you would be able to afford if you were buying them.  Heck, its more ecologically friendly too.

5)  Be flexible. Its amazing how much more you can get for your money when you let the florist guide you in your decision.  They may have other weddings that day with a certain flower choice and if it doesn’t matter to you, why not take advantage of the florists ability to buy the flowers in bulk and pass on the savings to you.

6) Don’t be afraid to share your budget – If your are upfront with the designer they can help maximize value during the process of selecting your flowers and make suggestions to either get you more for your budget or help you save additional money.

7)  Don’t be afraid to buy the package. We offer a number of packages at Michael’s Flower Girl.  These are items we turn out every week and are exceptional at making cost effectively.

Hope these tips are helpful and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
