A holiday engagement is something to celebrate! Time to plan the wedding flowers!

Holiday Engagement? How do I find a wedding florist? Petal Town Flowers can help make the planning process so easy!

Congratulations on your engagement! Not sure how to start the planning?  Time to pull out your Google machine and start searching :-)

Typically, brides (and some grooms) dream of their future wedding day, but when it finally comes to planning, it can be overwhelming.  Where to start? Who to contact? How to contact?  We can't answer for all of the details, but hopefully Petal Town Flowers can make the wedding floral planning super easy.

The best way to get started is to create a Pinterest board. Collect photos and ideas from around the web that you like, or even think you like. Look up your favorite celebrities weddings, your favorite wine country venues, even your favorite bohemian ranch in west Sonoma County.  In fact, you may be surprised how your style changes as you discover more flowers, color palettes and venue styles. You can check out our Pinterest board to give you a head start!

 

Although it's best to have your venue in mind when you request a wedding flower quote, it's not necessary. Flowers are flexible and we can accommodate a change of venue with no problem (providing it's still in the San Francisco Bay Area or the Sonoma/Napa Wine Country :-) )

After you have a vague idea of the style or color palette you like, download our Wedding Flower Questionnaire from the Petal Town Flowers Learn More page or click here: Wedding Flower Questionnaire . This will help you think about your bridal bouquet, how many bridesmaids bouquets you will need, how to spell the man-flower thingy (boutonniere) and so much more. 

We love to communicate with our brides and grooms. Send us an email with questions, photos, pinterest links... we will help you through the creation process so you end up with your style on your day.

Happy New Year from Petal Town Flowers and have a great time planning your wedding!

2017 Summer Weddings in Sonoma County, a variety of venues.

Sonoma Wine Country offers so much variety in wedding venues, styles and wedding flowers. Whether your wedding theme is rustic, traditional, country chic or romantic garden, we can customize your wedding flowers to match your style.

Sonoma County Wine Country is an amazing place to get married. The sun shines brightest in the later summer months and we welcome many destination brides and grooms to share their special day with us. The venue options are vast and Petal Town has had the good fortune of providing wedding flowers to many of the amazing wedding sites our wine country has to offer.

When couples come to Sonoma and Napa, they mostly imagine rolling vine covered hills and weddings nestled in the vineyards. We have that. But if you're looking for something just a little different, a more unique and intimate venue, there are many boutique hotels and restaurants with amazing courtyards, outdoor fireplaces and water features. Olive leaf garland draped across fireplace mantles dotted with bold colorful flowers and flickering pillar candles, vibrant local dahlias, garden roses, hydrangea and ranunculus combined with local seeded eucalyptus placed on the guest tables. 

If you're interested in bringing a bit of the grand South to your wedding, check out some of the old Manors and Estates that you can rent for your wedding. Sweeping lawns, covered porches, shaded patios allow you to have your ceremony under large oak trees, then cross the lawn to celebrate with catered meals and dancing in the courtyard under string lights and starlight.  Lush draping local greenery and blush colored local flowers can line your king's tables, place your leafy green bouquets in vases along the table's edge to display for your guests.

Rustic refurbished barns and country ranches are a big trend for your country chic boho style wedding. Backyard bar-b-que catered by some of the finest, paired with local wines and upscale microbrews are filling up our wedding calendar this year. Local colorful dahlias, hydrangea, garden roses and seeded eucalyptus display beautifully in spruced up mason jars and milk bottle bud vases. Line the farm tables with loosely placed garland, dotted with freshly cut local roses ranunculus.

Such a variety of venues!
