RENEE BURROUGHS, LOCAL FLORIST IN GREENVILLE, SC

What is Renee Burroughs Design?

We are a wedding and event floral design company serving the Upstate of South Carolina. Our floral focus is primarily weddings, but we also provide floral design for birthdays, showers, private parties, and corporate events along with specialty decor. Renee leads a team of designers that share her love of flowers and expertise knowing that no task is too large. We service over 125 events a year and usually recommend booking 10-12 months in advance.

Where do we begin?

We always begin with a phone consultation to get to know one another and cover some preliminary details. This usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes, and we can certainly cover quite a bit in that amount of time. We’d love to see some inspiration photos that you’ve gathered prior to our call. Just look for styles and a general feel of designs that speak to you. If you have a Pinterest account, send us the link and we can see what you love.

What are your prices?

We are very specific about working within your budgetary boundaries and design your style within your budget. Every event is unique, and pricing varies based on each clients’ needs, priorities & vision. We do suggest you take the time to create an overall budget for the wedding to see what you would like to put toward floral design and décor. We also have the average pricing of wedding floral necessities on our webpage. We do not require a minimum.

How far in advance should I contact you for my wedding or event?

If you are getting married or having an event during “peak” wedding months (April-October) we suggest booking 10-12 months in advance, as we fill up very quickly. The additional timeline of design planning can sometimes take up to 4 weeks so don’t hesitate if you are interested in an event with Renee Burroughs Design. We are always happy to help out with last minute bookings as our schedule permits.

Is there a charge to meet with you?

Initial phone and the first design plan consultations are complimentary.

Do you have a minimum?

No minimum purchase is required to work with us. We do have a minimum of $3,000 plus service for full-service purchases. We want the opportunity to work with every couple that wants to be a part of what we do. If you are having a small intimate wedding or have decided to be conservative with your floral budget, we would be delighted to help in any way we can.

Do you charge delivery or is that included?

We do charge for delivery, styling and installation; this charge includes on site set up and is calculated based on distance traveled and on-site installation requirements. We have a floral designer at every event site qualified to handle any last-minute emergency that may occur the day of the event. We don’t just send someone to drop off your delivery. Not all weddings require on-site services and pick-up is available.

How do I do a Pick-up? I am unsure that would be a good idea… Yikes! How does that work?

Pick up is chosen by many, many couples. Remember, you just need an appropriate vehicle and a responsible driver. This works because WE load EVERYTHING for you. All bouquets and arrangements are transported in appropriate, secure crates and come with a detailed labeled system that tell you exactly where each piece belongs at the wedding and who each bouquet, corsage and boutonniere belong to. Floral pick up is available the morning of your event from 8:00 AM to Noon.

Do you provide tear down and clean up services at the end of my event?

We do. This is calculated separately from delivery and set up as it is not always necessary for every event.

How do I book the date?

You should expect to pay a non-refundable retainer of 50% to secure your date and book our services for your event. A contract will be sent, and dates are not confirmed until we have both your retainer and contract on file. Balance is due 30 days before the event. 

Do you take Credit Cards?

Yes. We accept all major Credit Cards subject to a 3.5% service charge. We also accept Zelle, Venmo, cash and check.

Do you have vases, containers, and other items to use at my event?

We do. Our many collections of vessels for flowers are as broad as individual tastes. We offer many options for ceremony, aisle, centerpiece, food table and other reception designs. These options are already calculated in the total cost of each arrangement. It is very practical to use what we have and not have the considerable cost of buying things for your event. We have ceremony structures and props ideal for an array of events.

Can you use my vases for the centerpieces?

Yes, we will be happy to.

Do you do more than one wedding a day?

We do. With over 35 years in wedding floral design, Renee takes to heart our deepest core value, “We have only ONE DAY to get this right.” We have experienced designers that lead each team of staff members and have backs-ups in place to assure that we provide exactly what you are expecting and more. We are ready at a moment’s notice to adjust to any unexpected change in your timeline, circumstance or need of the day. Renee approves every arrangement and placement of designs we provide for you. We are not finished until she gives the final approval on everything. Your wedding will always be our priority.
