Who is A&L Flowers?

A&L Flowers is a family business. We began growing and selling flowers on our family farm in 1973, and we’re now Sydney’s leading boutique florist. We use only the highest quality flowers in every creation (home grown and imported). And we go above and beyond to ensure every bouquet and floral display is sublime, and every customer 100% satisfied.

What services do you provide?

You can buy flowers online 24/7 for birthdays, Mother’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Easter, Christmas… or simply to fill your world with flowers. We also specialise in weddings, funerals, baptisms, birthdays, corporate functions and other events.

We have the expertise, creativity and knowledge to transform any event into a spectacular floral display and we work with every customer to provide bespoke and breathtaking bouquets, floral arrangements, buttonholes, table centrepieces and anything else that you need for a magical and memorable event.

Where do you deliver?

You can order our beautiful flowers online 24/7 with Sydney-wide flower delivery. If you live further afield, please contact us. We’ll do everything we can to deliver your flowers when and where you need them.

What are your delivery fees?

Standard local delivery starts from $20. For deliveries outside of our area, delivery fee’s  will be charged accordingly at checkout. For flower delivery outside Sydney, please contact us and we’ll provide a price on the spot.

Do you offer same day delivery?

We absolutely do. Please place your order before 1 pm (AEST) Monday-Friday, and before 10am on Saturday for same day delivery. Orders received after 1 pm will be delivered market-fresh the next day. We will also try our best to fulfil last minute deliveries, so if you have an urgent request, please get in touch to see if we can help.

Do you have a weekly subscription service?

We certainly do. We’ve lived a life in flowers and we love filling your world with flowers, too. We’re flexible and can provide weekly, fortnightly or monthly bouquets or vases for your shop, office or home… delivered to your door. Simply get in touch to discuss your options.

What happens if the recipient isn’t at home?

We have a trusted courier we have used for years. In the event the recipient is not at home, they will leave the bouquet at the front door if they deem it a safe and discrete spot. If the flowers cannot be left safely, we’ll contact you as soon as possible to arrange alternative flower delivery (additional charges may apply).

If you are unsure if the recipient will be home, we suggest you leave their contact number (and yours) in the ‘delivery notes’ field on our order page. We will then contact them prior to delivery.

Please note that all deliveries to hospitals are confirmed prior to delivery.

What happens if I want to make changes to my order?

Please contact us as soon as possible. If the order has not yet gone out for delivery, we will do everything we can to meet your request.

Weddings and events

What sort of events do you do?

As a leading Sydney florist, A&L Florist creates, delivers and installs breathtaking blooms for every size and type of event, from christenings to corporate functions, baby showers, birthdays, funerals and of course, weddings. We create and deliver spectacular bouquets and floral arrangements and style every event to floral perfection.

What does your wedding flower service cover?

We’ve been providing exquisite, elegant and high quality wedding flowers for decades, and we have the expertise and creativity to ensure every wedding bouquet and display is sublime. We take hold of every detail, including bespoke floral design, flower delivery and set up on the day. We go above and beyond to help ensure your special day is truly magical.

How do I order flowers for an event?

A&L Florist creates breathtaking bouquets and floral arrangements for every event, tailored to every customer. The first step is to contact us to arrange a consultation for a wedding, funeral or other event. We’ll talk through all the details, discuss your options and plan every floral detail to perfection.

Do you have insurance?

We certainly do. We have been growing, styling and providing exquisite flowers since 1973, and event flowers are a speciality, so we have full public liability insurance.

Can we arrange a consultation?

We wouldn’t start any other way! We’re a leading Sydney florist because we have the expertise, creativity and dedication to ensure every bouquet is sublime and every event a floral feast. And that means we’re big on detail. We begin event flowers with a face to face consultation to confirm your floral needs and preferences, discuss best options and begin planning for your special day.

How early should I book my wedding/event flowers?

We are committed to giving each and every event client our full attention and service, so we limit the number of events we do each weekend. For that reason, we recommend you contact us as soon as you’ve confirmed your venue.

We do understand that funerals and some other events take place at short notice, however. We keep a vast stock of flowers – and we still grow some on our family farm – to ensure you have bouquets and floral displays when and where you need them. Please browse our flowers online, or contact us to discuss your event and how we can help.

How much do wedding flowers cost?

We’ve provided wedding flowers for decades and we know that every event is unique. The cost of your wedding flowers can vary based on the number of bouquets and buttonholes, table centrepieces and floral arrangements, the variety of flowers and your event location, if beyond Sydney.

We don’t do set packages because we craft only bespoke wedding flowers that suit you and your event perfectly. As a guide, we would recommend you allow around 10% of your wedding budget for flowers and styling, however the best option is to contact us to book in a consultation. We can work to any size budget and will do whatever it takes to fill your world with flowers.

What deposit do you require? What forms of payment do you accept?

We require a deposit of 20% to secure your event date. Our preferred method of payment is direct deposit or you can pay via credit card or through Paypal. For wedding flowers, we ask for full payment 14 days prior to the event.

Do you provide funeral flowers?

Yes, we do. We create bespoke funeral flowers, including bouquets and arrangements and we ensure you receive only the highest quality blooms, for an elegant and memorable service. We also arrange flower delivery and install to oversee every detail. If you would like to send sympathy flowers, please also shop our flowers online for an elegant selection.

Do you do only Sydney weddings and events?

Not at all! We’re located in Wetherill Park in Sydney’s south-west, and we provide flowers for weddings, funerals and events across Sydney… and further afield. Events outside Sydney may incur additional costs in terms of labour and delivery but we will confirm these prior to the event. Simply contact us once you have your event date and venue details to book us in.

What does the cost of wedding flowers cover?

Our work for your wedding or event flowers begins with your very first consultation and continues until after your big day. Our complete planning includes floral design and styling, quoting, sourcing the finest flowers, conditioning and hydrating the flowers and creating your bouquets and floral arrangements.

We personally deliver everything for your event and install it at your venue. We can also pick up any arrangements after the event. On average, we spend between 30 and 80 hours on a wedding – and we pour our heart and soul into every single bloom.

We’ve been in flowers since we established our flower farm and set up our first roadside stall in 1973. We have the knowledge, expertise and creativity to ensure every floral detail is sublime – and we never disappoint a customer.
