The power of prayed-up petals.

As a specialty event florist shop, our goal is to create beautiful florals for each of our brides and go beyond their expectations. Sometimes, this means that we go a little crazy in the ordering process. Many times, we add on extra arrangements on site for our gorgeous couples that may not be listed in their quote- just as a gift from us designers. However, we are usually left with extra blooms from the day. Since we stay booked with weddings almost every weekend in the spring and fall, we typically like to “de-stash” in preparation for the next event. Additionally, we’ve had brides who have specifically requested that we donate their wedding florals after we clean up their event. Of course, this was a heavy task at first as we started donating to cancer centers, hospitals, teachers, schools, etc.
After some reflection and refocus, our shop began wrapping small market bouquets and placing them outside the shop for a $5 donation as we took on a child from World Vision and began sponsoring him monthly. Since then, our community has rallied behind us, and we have been able to gift more and more.
We have created The Flower Box as a pickup location at our shop’s primary address. This is typically placed out on Sunday with freshly wrapped bouquets that can be purchased for $5 and sometimes small jar arrangements for $10. Profits go directly toward our World Vision buddies. (You may recognize them if you have gotten a holiday delivery from us as a portion of our holiday proceeds go to the same cause!)
The address is: 3211 Weoka Road, Wetumpka, Alabama 36092
(This is not a store front but rather a private residence. As we open up our roadside stand, please be respectful of neighbors and personal property)

As our community involvement gets larger- we would love to do more. Please, support us as we play a small part in children’s lives that are beyond our nations boarders.
We hope our mission speaks volumes to our community and our blooms bless your homes.
