About

Overview & Vibe

Bloomy Days is a family-owned studio at Smythes Creek, just outside Ballarat, working almost entirely in dried flowers. Jaclyn started it in 2020 and it has grown into a team; the studio is open by appointment rather than as a shop. It sits at both ends of a wedding - it makes the bouquet a bride carries, and it is one of the few places in the country that will later set that same bouquet in resin or press and frame it.

Style & Signature Blooms

Everything is dried or preserved, and the studio is direct about the appeal: a dried bouquet looks the same on the first anniversary as it did on the day. The hire range runs to pampas-dressed timber arbours and welcome signs, and its own photographs show bridal parties in open paddocks, ceremonies under dressed arbours, and cakes trimmed with dried stems in rust and burnt orange.

Ideal For

Couples who want flowers that last, who like a natural dried palette, or who are marrying somewhere the heat would punish fresh stems. It also suits anyone who wants the arbour and the bouquet from one place, and couples anywhere in Australia who simply want their bouquet preserved afterwards - that side of the business works entirely by post.

The Need-to-Knows

Wedding bouquets and event florals are bespoke and quoted; the only fixed floral prices are dried-flower clutches at $67.50. Hire is priced openly - hexagonal arbours from $80 to $300 for a set of three, the Ellen arbour at $150 alone or $600 dressed, the pampas arbour at $450, and welcome signs and stands from $60 to $250. Preservation is a separate service with its own $150 minimum and a six to eight month turnaround. Enquiries are answered in two to three business days, and the studio warns that wedding season books out fast.

Standout Feature

It is the same studio at both ends of the day. The bouquet is made there, and afterwards it goes back there to be set in resin or pressed and framed - the team preserves the wedding flowers of roughly 700 couples a year.
