Inquire 

The first step when looking to hire the Ashley MacDonald Floral Designs team is to complete our submission form. This form gives us a basic outline of numbers, location, and floral needs. Once you have submitted the form, you will receive a welcome letter with more information to better prepare you for the next steps. Upon submission, someone from the Ashley MacDonald team will be in touch to answer any questions you may have and to assist in scheduling and preparing you for your consultation. 

Consultation 

Consultations are held at our design studio. If you cannot make it to the studio due to timing or living out of town, we are more than happy to continue the process via email/phone. Once a consultation date is set, you will receive a pre-consultation form. This form dives deeper into numbers, your style and details. The form also gives us the ability to be prepped for your consultation where you will be presented with an initial design board and proposal. Our consultations last approximately one hour. This is where you will personally meet with Ashley, who is there to listen, offer suggestions and get a better understanding of what your floral event dreams look like and how we can make them a reality. One to two weeks after the consultation, you will receive a finished design board, proposal, and contract. 

Booking 

After taking time to look at the design board and proposal, it is time to book. To officially book with Ashley MacDonald Floral Designs, we must receive your signed contract and the deposit amount stated on your contract. We suggest making the decision to book as soon as possible, as we book nine to twelve months in advance. The only way to secure your event date is by completing this booking process.  

Final Consultation

Once you have officially booked, you will be provided with a payment and a final consultation schedule. These payments and dates will also be listed on your contract. During the final consultation, details such as miscellaneous areas, guest count and all details will be finalized. Final payment will be due at the end of the final consultation as all final revisions will be made.  

*Any other consultations requested by the client will be an additional $100 fee.

*Any “Mock Up” or “Samples” requested by client will be an additional charge based on set value listed under the clients proposal.
