 Occasionally, substitutions may be necessary to create your arrangement due to the availability of certain flowers in various parts of the country. Care is taken to maintain the style, theme, and color scheme of the arrangement using flowers of equal value. In single-flower arrangements, such as an all-rose bouquet, or orchids, we will make every attempt to match the flower type, but may substitute with another color. Likewise, the substitution of plants or containers using items of equal value may be necessary.
