Has anyone here tried ordering wedding flowers from wholesale suppliers

I’m considering sourcing wedding flowers from a wholesale supplier instead of a florist. Has anyone used options like FMI Farms Flower Wholesale or similar? Would you recommend it for weddings?

If you can find a flower grower they might so a bucket price but if you want to buy from a flower market you will be paying retail price. Wholesale is for florsit only with a floral abn

Hi there,

Some wholesalers only deal direct with thier florists, but if you did happen to find one that sold to the public, they wouldnt be arranged. They would sell you bunches as they are and you'd have to condition, prepare and arrange them all yourslef making your wedding that tiny bit more stressful ( if you ask me)

Sometimes paying that little bit more for a proper florist to create your wedding flowers is a lot less stress, and you camn go into your wedding knowing all the details are taken care of for you.

Hope that helps,

Nat

I'm not sure if there's any options like that in Australia. You will probably need to find your nearest flower market - they usually do both wholesale and retail, and you'll most likely need to buy at their retail prices, which usually isn't a whole lot more.
