About

Overview & Vibe

Torquay Florist works from a shop on Gilbert Street in Torquay, at the eastern end of the Great Ocean Road, and describes itself as a fresh and funky florist based on the Surf Coast. Couples work one to one with senior florist Courtney. It is a small studio that takes a limited number of weddings and publishes each one in full, crediting the photographer and the venue.

Style & Signature Blooms

The range is wider than most studios of this size. One published wedding is built on sculptural arrangements with, in the studio’s own words, an edgy undertone — anthurium and dried elements on bare metal frames. Another is dense blue hydrangea and pink peony carried down a beach. Flowers come from locally sourced stock, so what is available moves with the season.

Ideal For

Couples marrying anywhere between Geelong, the Bellarine and the Great Ocean Road — the studio has flowered weddings at Lorne and Wye River. It suits anyone who wants a single florist across the whole day, from the bouquets to an installed arbour, a styled cake table and florals suspended above the reception.

The Need-to-Knows

No wedding prices, packages or minimum spend are published; every wedding is quoted from your brief after an enquiry through the studio’s form. Hire items are not offered. ⚠ The shop closes for a winter break over the quieter flower season and reopens on 11 August, and bookings are open for the 2026/27 season.

Standout Feature

The portfolio is the reason to look. Four weddings are published under the couples’ own names, each with its photographer and venue credited, and they are genuinely different from one another — a blue and white homestead wedding, a coral clifftop ceremony, a sculptural celebration in anthurium, and a beach wedding in hydrangea and peony. Very few studios show their range that plainly.
