Once you reach out to Southern Maryland Flower either using the "Wedding Inquiry" form below, emailing us directly or giving us a good old fashioned phone call, we will get in touch with you within a few days to setup a time to chat a bit about your wedding. This will give us a chance to gain an understanding of your floral needs and vision for your wedding day. Then, we will send an online form to gather more details about the specifics of your wedding.

At this point, we will be able to put together a quick estimate for your wedding florals. We will email your quick estimate and give you a week (longer if requested) to look it over and discuss with anyone helping you plan your wedding. Of course we are here to support you through this process as well and will be here to help creatively problem solve any roadblocks that arrive.

If you approve the quick estimate and want to commit to having Southern Maryland Flower as your wedding florist, you will be emailed a contract to sign. Once we receive your signed contract and non-refundable deposit (this is applied to your total balance) we will block off your wedding date, begin working on your more detailed Floral Design Proposal and setup your payment schedule. Your Proposal will be sent to you for your signed approval.

Throughout this process we can connect with your wedding planner, photographer and other key members of your wedding day team if you have them.

Two months and one month before your wedding, we will check in with you and discuss any last minute details.

When your wedding day arrives we will deliver and be on site to setup your flowers if you have chosen our Full Service Wedding option. Take down of florals can also be included for our Full Service clients. If you've opted for our Partial Service option we will have your wedding flowers ready for pickup the morning of your wedding. This is usually a task that is given to a friend or family member who is willing to help.

Yes and no...Knowing the amount you've budgeted for wedding flowers does help us provide you with more accurate details like the amount of florals and flower types you can expect for your wedding, but if you really don't have a clear budget yet we can discuss typical budget ranges with you and what to expect at each level.

Yes, we book events year round! Here at Southern Maryland Flower we aim to create floral designs that include some elements that are seasonal and local to help create a sense of time and place. While we do grow some of our own flowers to achieve this, we also use traditionally sourced flowers like other florists.

This is an important question for our Partial Service customers who will be picking up their wedding flowers. Southern Maryland Flower is located in St. Mary's county in Leonardtown, Maryland.
