About

Overview & Vibe

Rosella Floral Designs is a Sydney wedding and event florist and stylist run by lead designer Anvara, who has been designing for couples and brands for over twelve years. It works from a home studio rather than a shop, and says so plainly: no shopfront overheads, stock bought to order, and the saving passed on. Fresh flower wedding packages start at $600, every item on the price list carries a starting figure, and consultations are by appointment. It was a finalist for Outstanding Florist in the 2017 Sydney Hills Awards.

Style & Signature Blooms

The house style is romantic, whimsical, elegant and modern. Bouquets run from a tight posy to an oversized organic gather finished with hand-dyed silk ribbons, and the portfolio moves easily between blush garden roses, burgundy dahlias and a full-native build around protea, banksia and gum. A four-season Sydney flower guide sets out what is available when - peonies and David Austin roses in summer, ranunculus and anemone in the cooler months, waratah in spring - and the studio is clear that choosing in-season blooms lowers the bill.

Ideal For

Couples who want to see a number before they enquire. Four named packages cover the bridal party from $600 to $1,800, and around twenty individual items are priced from a $15 buttonhole to a $600 ceremony arch, so a small ceremony and a full reception can both be costed from the same list. It also suits couples marrying outside Sydney - the Hunter Valley, the Central Coast, the Southern Highlands, the Illawarra and the South Coast are all regions it travels to - and anyone who wants one supplier for flowers, styling, hire pieces and the planning as well.

The Need-to-Knows

Enquiries go by email, and the studio asks for a lot up front: your date, both names, the delivery suburbs, both venue names, start and finish times, bump-in and bump-out, pictures with quantities, your photographer and your budget. Allow 48 hours for a reply on weekdays and 72 across a weekend, and check your spam folder. Delivery, set-up and pack-down are quoted on your locations and sit outside the package prices, and flowers can be dropped to more than one address on the morning. Travel to the Blue Mountains and the Central Tablelands is paused while the Great Western Highway is closed, so ask about a date there first.

Standout Feature

The hire range is measured as well as priced. A silk floral arch is $350 and comes with its height, width and depth; a wooden arch is $200 at 2m by 1.5m; an elevated silk centrepiece is $150 on a 70cm stand; a clear wishing well is $45 at 32cm cubed. For a couple working to a venue’s ceiling height or a hire company’s dimensions, that is the rare listing they can plan against rather than ask about.

Appointment Policy

Consultations are by appointment only, and the first step is email rather than a visit.
Send your wedding date, both your names, the delivery suburbs for the bridal party's blooms, the names of the ceremony and reception venues, the start and finish times and the bump-in and bump-out times.
Send pictures of the arrangements you like with quantities, your photographer's name and your budget - the studio asks for the budget up front so the quote fits it.
Allow 48 hours for a reply Monday to Friday, and 72 hours from Friday to Monday; if nothing arrives, check your spam folder, because the studio says its email often lands there.
A face-to-face consultation is offered once the details are settled by email, at a location agreed between you, and the first consultation is complimentary.
Dates fill quickly, so email or call early in your planning to check the studio is free on yours.

Delivery & Setup

Delivery, set-up and pack-down are quoted with the job, and the charge depends on where you are.
Flowers can go to more than one address on the morning, so the bridal party and the groom's party can get ready in different places.
The studio will deal directly with your other suppliers and with the ceremony and reception venues to settle the delivery time, so you do not have to relay it.
Hire pieces are delivered and packed down for a fee set by the location, quoted on top of the hire price.

Price Notes

Every figure is a starting price - 'prices will vary depending on flower choice, arrangement size and seasonal availability'.
The studio works from home rather than a shop and buys stock to order, and says that is why its prices sit where they do: 'no expensive overheads associated with traditional floral shops and kiosks, and only purchase stock, as we require it'.
Choosing blooms that are in season lowers the bill; out-of-season flowers can be sourced but cost more.
Delivery, set-up and pack-down sit outside the package and hire prices and are quoted on your locations.
A wrist corsage is $30, with a minimum order of ten for school formals.
