Frequently Asked Questions Events & Weddings

What is the process to book with JP Parker?

We would love to meet with you and discuss your vision for your wedding. We like to go over everything and then offer a quote. To book we require a non-refundable, minimum of $300.00 or 10% of quote deposit and a signed contract. Our contract saves the date and allows changes to be made up until 3 weeks before wedding date.

How much do event & wedding flowers cost?

We provide custom designs for our event and wedding florals, which means we help advise & pick the best available flowers in your colors, in season and offer different price options if able. We do our best to match the vision and the investment with the flowers available in our area.

Is there a minimum package?

We do not offer any packages or require a minimum investment currently. We offer designing a single bouquet or help provide flowers for the whole party.

What is your cancellation policy?

Our deposit to save the date is non-refundable. Once flowers are ordered at the 3 weeks before wedding, we do not offer a refund, we would use any extra flowers to add to designs or place at other parts of venue, or flowers are sent home with family. Cancellation refunds will be addressed by a case-by-case basis, as we understand some situations are unavoidable.
