Planning wedding florals can feel overwhelming, but having the right answers simplifies your journey. At Sunshine and Stems, your trusted local florist in Andover, MN, we’ve helped many couples bring their dream bouquets and arrangements to life. Here are the most common wedding flower questions we receive, answered with Andover venues in mind.
How far in advance do I need to place an order?
For popular venues in Andover like The Courtyards Event Center and Bunker Golf Course, it’s ideal to book your florist at least 6 to 9 months before your date. This guarantees availability, especially during peak wedding seasons. Booking early helps us secure your preferred flowers and design time. Learn more about our booking process on our Sunshine and Stems website.
What flowers do you recommend based on the wedding season or color scheme?
Seasonal flowers make your wedding fresh and cost-effective. In Minnesota, spring offers tulips and daffodils, summer brings vibrant roses and peonies, fall highlights sunflowers and dahlias, and winter dazzles with amaryllis and anemones. Our designers at Sunshine and Stems tailor recommendations to your color scheme and venue ambiance, whether indoor at The Courtyards or outdoor at Rum River Golf Club.
Can you create a unique design blending timeless and trendy elements?
Absolutely. We blend classic elegance like white roses and calla lilies with trendy touches such as cascading greenery or jewel-toned blooms. Each design reflects your personality and the vibe of your venue—be it the rustic charm of Cedar Creek Amphitheater or the modern elegance of Green Haven Golf Course.
Have you worked at my wedding venue before?
