Are artificial flowers cheaper than fresh?

Generally speaking, yes. It depends on quality, because real and faux flowers can both sit at either end of the scale. Premium faux flowers can sometimes be similar in price to purchase as fresh flowers, but they offer better long-term value because they stay perfect all day and can be kept or reused after the event.

Do artificial flowers look real in photos?

Premium faux flowers can look realistic in photos. The Faux Studio sources and uses flowers that photograph well and are suitable for wedding and event styling.

How far in advance should I book?

Clients can book up to 18 months ahead. If you know you would like to secure The Faux Studio for your wedding, you can pay a deposit before finalising every floral detail.

What areas do you service?

The Faux Studio services Toowoomba and South East Queensland, subject to travel availability and charges.

Is setup and pack-down included?

Setup and pack-down depend on the booking and location. Options include DIY setup with collection and return, extended five-day hire, or full delivery services quoted based on location and wedding size.

How do payments work?

A 30% deposit is required to secure the wedding or event date, with the remaining balance due 30 days before the wedding.

What is the difference between hire florals and keepsake florals?

The difference is whether you keep the flowers or return them after the event. Bridal party flowers such as bouquets, pins and corsages are keepsake florals, while decorative pieces can be hired or purchased.

What happens after I enquire?

After you submit the enquiry form, The Faux Studio prepares a moodboard and quote. You can request changes before paying a 30% deposit to secure your date.

Do you have a minimum spend?

No. The Faux Studio can cater to different budgets and does not require a minimum spend.

Do you offer studio visits?

The Faux Studio does not currently have a public studio available for visits. Wedding and event clients can view detailed information on the website and may email to ask about purchasing a sample box.

Wedding Florals FAQ Toowoomba

Generally speaking, yes they are cheaper! As with everything though, it depends on the quality and both real and faux flowers can sit at either end of that scale. Premium faux flowers can at times be similar in price (to purchase) as fresh, however they offer better value long term as they stay perfect all day, are a stress free option and can be kept and re-used well past the day,
Premium faux flowers can trick even the best floral eye when it comes to how they look in photos. I source and use flowers only I would be happy to use myself and that means choosing flowers that photograph well
Clients book up to 18 months ahead with me - if you know you would like to secure me for your wedding then you can pay a deposit without having to decide on your specifics.
Toowoomba & SEQ (subject to travel availability and charges)
When it comes to the size of your order, you can reduce the size up to 20% of your original quote. In terms of flower colours and choices, the 3 month mark is the latest I can accept significant design changes. This allows me enough time to source the best options
The prices per item in the price guide do not include delivery and set up costs - I can quote delivery charges once I know the size of the order and the venue I am travelling to.

The three options are:
1. DIY Set Up (Collect and return to my Studio within 48 hours)
2. DIY Set Up Extended 5 Day Hire (Collect and return to my Studio within 5 days)
3. Full Delivery Services - quoted based on location and size of wedding
A 30% deposit is required to secure the date for your wedding or event, with the remainder due 30 days before the wedding.
The only difference between hire or purchase is literally that you either keep your flowers or you don't - the process prior to that is the same no matter what. You still choose your flowers, colours, sizes quantities etc. For every Wedding you always get to keep your bridal party flowers (bouquets and jacket pins, corsages etc), then you can either hire or purchase your decorative flowers. 95% of people choose to hire as it is cheaper and you don't have to store and brave marketplace after your wedding to try and sell them which can be a real pain (learnt this lesson myself when I tried to sell my wedding flowers)
Once you fill out the enquiry form I put together a moodboard and quote for you to have a look at. At this stage you can change, tweak, add, remove as much as you would like. Once you are happy with the proposal, you pay a 30% deposit to secure your date. NOTE your date is not secured until the deposit is paid, even if I have sent you a quote the date is still up for grabs.
Although I don't officially work with any other vendors, I have built some great relationships with other vendors locally and am happy to give suggestions based on my experiences
Thats fine! Send me some inspo pics and a rough budget and I can put something together that will maximise your floral vision
Just give them a light dust from time to time to keep anything settling on your florals - if they do get marked, or dropped on the ground you can use a baby wipe to remove tougher marks.
No I don't! I can cater to all budgets
I currently do not have a public studio available for visits. For wedding and event bookings, our website has detailed information and plenty of proven Faux Studio weddings for you to view.
