Wholesale wedding flower guide

We have been in the business of wholesale wedding flower suppliers for quite a while now. And with our experience, we can determine an average customer spending pattern for their big day.

Weddings in the United States are a hotter commodity than ever before. A reasonable wedding in the U.S. now costs an average of $32,000. And couples spend an upwards of $5,000 – $7,000 on wedding flowers alone. If you can manage to market yourself to couples seeking their dream weddings, that’s a huge potential payoff.

Of course, anyone wanting to pay for flowers is going to want the best quality. Which means that you, in turn, need to be able to provide a large selection of flowers that might not necessarily be available through local suppliers.

Buying online opens you up to the global market

Oftentimes, wholesale flower importers are much more flexible than local flower suppliers. For instance it offers a much wider selection and the ability to quickly deliver high quality flowers at competitive prices. More importantly being connected to global markets and not a limited flower supply, makes sourcing complicated seasonal items such as Anemones, Ranunculus, Peonies, or any other exotic flower that depends on the season to grow.

Buying online from renowned wholesale wedding flower suppliers ensures the highest quality: Dutch Flowers

When it comes to high quality flowers, nothing beats the Dutch Flower Market. The Netherlands is (and has been) considered a world leader when it comes to horticultural innovation. And certainly their flowers and plants show it. They consistently lead the global flower market in high yield of disease-resistant flowers. And they are leaps and bounds ahead of other markets when it comes to design-based horticulture. (In other words: they’re great at producing beautiful flowers that reflect what customers want.)

Your flowers have to be high quality in order to receive return business or referrals. That’s why it’s smart to incorporate Dutch Flowers in your inventory: you’re guaranteed high quality, exclusive flowers, which will, in turn, guarantee customer satisfaction. Remember: it’s not so much the price as it is the flowers quality that matter to your customers.

It is not all about Tulips!

The Dutch flower market, to boot, isn’t just limited to tulips— connecting to the Dutch flower market will give you a plethora of products to choose from. Being able to click, and buy direct will within seconds connect you “the florist” to global markets and give you information like availability, variety names, as well as priceless information that you can share with the bride. Typical issues with wedding orders can be avoided: offering seasonal items at the wrong time of year. Offering prices to your brides at a undesirable price. But last and foremost not having control over your selection. A lot of information gets lost in translation between florist, local wholesaler, Miami flower importer, and grower, you get the point. Take control of flower buying!
