A la Carte Wedding Flowers

February 13, 2025 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

Planning your wedding should be a joyful experience, and choosing your flowers is one of the most exciting parts! Our à la carte wedding flowers option is here to inspire, guide, and simplify the process for couples who want stunning floral arrangements without the commitment of a full-service florist.

Why Choose A la Carte Wedding Flowers Over Full Service?

Whether you’re envisioning a romantic bouquet, elegant centerpieces, or lush floral accents, we offer expert tips, trend insights, and real wedding inspiration to help you curate the perfect blooms for your big day. With the flexibility of à la carte ordering, you get high-quality, beautifully designed flowers—without the stress or hefty price tag of a custom floral package.

When opting for à la carte wedding flowers, couples are able to thoughtfully curate a selection of floral essentials to complement their big day instead of paying for a one-size-fits-all package. This flexible approach allows couples to focus on the arrangements they truly need, all while staying within their budget.

What Type of Arrangements Are Available When Choosing A La Carte?

A bridal bouquet is the star of the show, often featuring lush blooms that reflect the couple’s style and color palette. Bridesmaids’ bouquets are typically smaller, designed to coordinate beautifully with the bridal arrangement. These can also sometimes be used as centerpieces for the tables at the wedding ceremony. Boutonnieres for the groom, groomsmen, and other special family members add a refined touch, while additional ceremony pieces—such as altar arrangements or aisle markers—help set the scene for a romantic “I do.” The only items not available when using our a la carte services are those requiring installation, such as floral arches, as a la carte orders are pick-up only.

How Much Can I Expect To Pay For A La Carte Wedding Flowers?

Couples who choose an à la carte wedding flower package typically spend between $500 – $1,600 (before tax), depending on the number of floral pieces and the types of flowers selected. It’s important to remember that flower prices can vary depending on the style, season, and type of blooms chosen. Lush, premium flowers like peonies and garden roses will have a higher price point, while classic options like carnations and mums offer a more budget-friendly alternative.

Below is a sample cost breakdown to help plan your budget:

Essentials:

  • Bridal Bouquet – $250 to $400
  • Bridesmaids’ Bouquets (each) – $85 to $150
  • Boutonnieres (each) – $25 to $40

Featured: All-White Floral Arrangements at a Little White Chapel

February 9, 2024 By ZuZusPetals 1 Comment

Finding the Right Location

Nayelli and Aaron’s quest for the perfect setting to begin their lifelong journey together was marked with an expectation for a place that could mirror the warmth and love they share. Finally their search concluded with the charming Lincoln Chapel, an iconic little white chapel nestled in the Texas Hill Country. This solid concrete venue offers a modern, but intimate ambiance for couples looking to keep things cozy. Surrounded by breathtaking all-white floral arrangements and their closest friends and family last October, their wedding was a lovely representation of everything they had dreamed of.

Choosing an All-White Floral Style

Nayelli came to us envisioning a monochromatic, modern bouquet made of roses. She also wanted matching all-white floral arrangements combining roses and baby’s breath. We elevated these atop white columns and flanked the glass doors, providing a gorgeous backdrop for their stylish ceremony. There are hundreds of varieties of both roses and baby’s breath, which gave us a wide selection to choose from. For these designs we decided on Tibet, Polar Star, Moonstone, and Playa Blanca roses, and both Million Star and Xlence White for the baby’s breath. Having a diverse collection helped all of the shades of white blend together seamlessly.

After their ceremony, Nayelli and Aaron took a trip into Austin with their photographer, Kersten at Availeth Photography, to take more breathtaking couple photos. Any Austinite will definitely recognize this popular location! The Pennybacker Bridge, most commonly known as the 360 Bridge, spans across Lake Austin and makes for a fun background. Once again her all-white bridal bouquet provided an elegant addition to their photos. But the real winner was their adorable pup, who looked very dapper in his matching black and white bandana. We had a blast working with Nayelli and Aaron and wish them all the best!

The One With the Cranes

July 6, 2023 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

From the moment I met with Catherine I knew she was going to be fun and different from any other person I had met before! She had ideas that wowed me and drawing and rendering of her vision so I knew I had to nail her vision!

She and Logan booked their wedding at The Vineyard at Florence last fall and we created this beautiful look on this cold and rainy day. The Vineyard at Florence has several locations to host your ceremony and this ceremony site made sure to keep guests nice and cozy!

The bridal bouquet was easily one of my favorite pieces from this wedding. The colors, the shape and the unique orchids that we received made the whole thing come together! The scabiosa mirrored the speckled orchids, the soft and flowy agonis was a great contrast to the bold smokebush and the tulips created a nice soft highlight throughout the bouquet.

Mirroring the bouquet we had the compotes at the beginning of the aisle that were also placed on the tables after the ceremony. This was able to be done because the weather was nice and cool and the blooms were under the pavilion protecting them from the harsh weather outside. This is something we do NOT recommend during the summer as we can not guarantee the conditions of the floral.

The unique and exciting part of this wedding would have to be the installation we did that Catherine worked so hard on. She made hundreds and hundreds of cranes before her wedding and attached them to hoops that we then hung to the rafters. We used a twenty foot ladder to get to the very top and boy were our legs tired!

Another component to this beautiful wedding were the trees that we made. We ordered them months in advance and made sure we practiced and really understood the structure. The trees had hanging orbs with twinkle lights which created such a romantic mood.

Thank you for letting us be apart of your day! We really enjoyed working on this wedding and working with the venue to see the vision come to life!

Modern Fall Wedding

March 16, 2023 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

Form the moment we met with Brookelyn and Laura we fell in love with their love, the way they looked at each other and the care they had for one another was so beautiful! Looking through their gallery proved just that, smiles throughout the whole album! Come take a look at one of our favorite weddings from last fall and see how all the details came together to create this wonderful day!

We had dried several items in our studio to use for this special day. Things that we had saved from previous weddings and open houses. So much thought and detail went into this day!

Our favorite part of this whole wedding was the modern disco ball details and the toffee roses 💕

The wedding party was SO much fun! All the different dresses were such a great addition. How great is it to be surrounded by this group of loving friends and family!

Also, take a look at the amazing portraits they took. I mean come on, would you just look at them! Thank you Brookelyn and Laura for trusting us with your big day and for letting us be apart of your memories. Thank you for all the vendors involved for making the day run smoothly and beautifully!

Earthy Wedding Vibes

March 9, 2023 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

Every few months we get the privilege of dressing up of our very own venue Kindred Oaks and Lincoln Chapel. This past month we went with natural elements and a neutral color palette. We had several great vendors come out to participate and our lovely friend Shelley Montgomery took some amazing photos for us! Come along as we take a closer look at the details we added to this neutral nature inspired theme!

For our tables we went to Austin Floral Company to pick up some cute plants, some moss and fresh floral from Pikes Peak and our vases and wood pieces we had in our inventory. We really wanted to create a look that would look natural and the green dianthus definitely added that extra touch we were looking for! Having live plants as centerpieces is a great way to keep something from your wedding, they also serve as great gifts for your friends and family!

Our front arbor was covered with two whole bales of smilax and some faux wisteria that we saved from a previous event. For a wedding, this piece has a price tag of $1,400! A lot goes into the pricing of installations like this. Product pricing, labor, knowledge it takes to execute this look and storage of the items all play a key part in our pricing! If you’re on a specific budget we recommend spending most of your investment money on a statement piece that can be reused. Something that is on a moveable piece or a vessel that can be transferred by your florist or day of coordinator.

For our Lincoln Chapel we decided to add some Spanish moss and fresh white floral. We added touches of black berries too, let us know if you can spot them! This Chapel is such a great little place for elopements and small wedding ceremonies. We love using color but decided to keep the theme going all around this time. Tell us what you’d like to see here next time!

Our back ceremony site was the ultimate natural ceremony site! With ferns, Spanish moss hanging from the trees and some hanging green Amaranthus to tie it all together who wouldn’t say yes to this?! This is the perfect minimal decor for when you already love the site and just want to add a little something.

We love getting creative and thinking of different ways to showcase our venue! No two weddings are ever the same so no two Open Houses are ever the same either! Make sure to come out to our next one to see what we have created for you! We will be focusing on the ceiling chandelier as a focal point to showcase what you can do with it!

A Tropical Summer Wedding

March 2, 2023 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

We can’t wait to share this wedding with you! Our amazing Studio Manager, Jesica, took the lead on this Tropical Summer wedding for Kelly and Ryan – and completely blew it out of the water! This wedding took place at the beautiful Villa Antonia, and the tropical-inspired floral designs were the perfect match for this unique space. Jesica and the team used a variety of tropical blooms and foliages in shades of white and green to bring this couple’s design vision to life. Some of the fresh materials used were monstera leaves, king protea, orchids, ti leaves, teepee ferns, pampas grass, roses, and more! Let’s take a stroll through this beautiful wedding together…

The boutonnieres were simple and elegant, and included a white orchid with fresh foliage – wrapped in a white satin ribbon. The bridesmaid bouquets included a mix of white floral and tropical foliage, and they were the perfect accessory to carry for this event. Kelly’s bridal bouquet was absolutely stunning – check out those double asiatic lilies!

Our team used a gold octagonal metal piece from Mancino Iron Rentals as the base for a breathtaking ceremony design! Adorned with monstera leaves, king proteas, roses, double lilies and more – this design brought the terrace to life while creating the perfect frame for Kelly and Ryan to say their vows. Simple glass vases with tropical foliage, and a sprinkling of fresh rose petals dressed the aisle.

There’s just something about the flickering of candlelight, and fresh foliages that really brings a space together – right?! We used both to accent the fireplace and staircase leading to the reception area.

There were so many gorgeous photos taken by the talented Angela King that it was hard to narrow it down, but here are a few more of our favorites from this beautiful day!

Thank you so much for asking the team at ZuZu’s Petals to design your wedding flowers, Kelly and Ryan! We loved working with you, and we wish you all the best!!

A Bohemian Autumn Wedding

February 9, 2023 By ZuZusPetals Leave a Comment

This gorgeous September Wedding was designed by our very own Shannon! She worked with a beautiful color palette, reminiscent of Autumn – including shades of burgundy, copper, chocolate, ivory, and beige. Shannon selected roses, pampas grass, copper beech foliage, grevillea, upright amaranthus, ranunculus, and magnolia branches to create all of the floral designs. The textures were the perfect blend for this Autumn Wedding!

The ceremony space was brought to life with a wooden circular structure, adorned with an asymmetrical floral design. We lined the aisle with our Amber glass growler jugs, which created a nice contrast against the white chairs and lightly colored walkway.


This bridal bouquet was lush and whimsical, and it complimented the bride’s exquisite wedding gown beautifully!

The views at Villa Antonia are stunning! There are so many places for our designers to add in a creative flair, like the trailing greenery along the staircase, and the terrace overlooking the Austin hill country.

We are so grateful that this sweet couple asked us to be a part of their special day, and gave us the opportunity to design their wedding flowers!
