Wedding florist Singapore: flowers, costs and when to book

A wedding florist in Singapore can do anything from a single bouquet to a fully dressed ballroom. Here’s what florists cover, what they charge, which flowers cope with the heat, and how to get quotes.

What's included

What a wedding florist does

Most couples start with the bridal bouquet and add pieces from there. A wedding florist in Singapore will usually quote for some or all of these:

  • Bridal bouquet, plus smaller bouquets or posies for bridesmaids
  • Boutonnieres for the groom, groomsmen and fathers, and corsages for mothers
  • Solemnisation table flowers
  • Ceremony florals: aisle arrangements, church pews, an arch or pedestals
  • Reception centrepieces and stage or backdrop florals
  • Bridal car decoration
  • Delivery, set-up on the day and clearing away afterwards

Some florists stop at bouquets and personal flowers. Others work as stylists and handle the whole look of the venue. Ask which kind you’re talking to early on, because it changes both the quote and how much you’ll need to coordinate yourselves.

Costs

How much wedding flowers cost in Singapore

These are published prices we checked on 2 October 2026. Most are starting prices, and many florists add GST and delivery on top. Treat them as a guide and get written quotes.

Bridal bouquet (fresh)Starting prices on five Singapore florist websites ran from S$65 for a small posy of three to five roses to about S$370. Most full bouquets started between S$180 and S$250.
Boutonnieres and corsagesUsually priced per piece and often bundled with the bouquet. One florist’s rate card lists boutonnieres from S$24 and wrist corsages from S$28.
Bridal car decorationFrom about S$190 for artificial flowers on the bonnet and door ribbons, to S$330 to S$390 for fresh flowers. Packages around S$690 bundle fresh car flowers with a bouquet and corsages.
Church or ceremony packageTwo florists publish packages of S$1,265 and S$1,488 covering 10 to 12 pews and bridesmaids’ bouquets, among other pieces.
Full venue floralsSingSaver’s wedding cost guide (updated June 2026) puts comprehensive set-ups with arches, centrepieces and aisle decorations at S$4,000 to S$7,000, and decor and flowers at 6% to 10% of the total wedding budget.

What drives the price

What affects your florist's quote

  • Flower choice. Some flowers cost far more than others. At one florist, a peony bridal bouquet was listed at nearly twice the price of its entry-level bouquet.
  • Size and volume. A cascading bouquet uses far more stems than a hand-tied posy, and every extra table centrepiece adds up.
  • Fresh or preserved. Preserved and artificial flowers are often cheaper and won’t wilt, though they look different up close.
  • Set-up and timing. Early-morning set-ups, tight venue windows and teardown late at night can add labour charges.
  • Date. Popular dates book out, and some florists only take one wedding a day.

Heat and humidity

Choosing flowers that cope with Singapore's weather

Singapore’s heat is hard on cut flowers, especially at an outdoor ceremony or during a long photo session. Florists quoted by SingaporeBrides warned that hydrangeas wilt easily in hot, humid weather, so if you love them, keep them for indoor arrangements or ask how your florist will keep them hydrated.

A few practical habits help any bouquet last the day:

  • Ask for delivery as close to the ceremony as the schedule allows
  • Keep flowers in air-conditioning and out of direct sun between moments
  • Ask your florist which of your chosen flowers handle heat well, and what they’d swap in if something looks tired on the day
  • Consider preserved flowers for pieces you’ll carry for hours or want to keep afterwards

If you want a local touch, Singapore’s national flower is an orchid, the Vanda Miss Joaquim. NParks describes it as hardy and free-flowering, and it blooms all year. It was named the national flower in 1981.

Venue rules

Venue rules on outside florists

Check your venue’s rules before you book a florist. Many hotels have a preferred decorator or an in-house styling package. Most will still let you bring your own florist, but on their terms.

  • Amara Singapore’s wedding page says external decorators and florists may be engaged subject to hotel approval and its fire-safety, installation and dismantling requirements.
  • Sofitel Singapore City Centre offers its own themes with an option to collaborate with an external florist.
  • Gardens by the Bay works with a curated panel for catering, so ask what applies to decor when you enquire.

Questions worth asking your venue: is there a fee for outside suppliers, what time can set-up start, when must everything be cleared, and are fresh petals, candles or hanging installations allowed? Our guide to wedding venues and packages covers other things to check.

ROM and solemnisation

Flowers for a ROM or solemnisation

For a solemnisation, most couples keep it simple: a bridal bouquet, a boutonniere for the groom, and maybe flowers for parents and the solemnisation table.

If you’re marrying at a Registry of Marriages (ROM) venue, check the rules first. ROM’s guide to its Ficus Room at Gardens by the Bay says no decoration is allowed because the basic set-up is already done, and no confetti or party items are allowed either. ROM’s own solemnisation room holds up to 20 people, so personal flowers are usually all you need. Rules can change, so confirm on the ROM website.

For a solemnisation at a restaurant, garden or hotel, table flowers and a small arrangement behind the couple make a big difference in photos. See our guides to solemnisation venues and registering your marriage at ROM.

Bridal car

Wedding car decoration

Bridal car decoration usually means a front arrangement on the bonnet plus ribbons or small posies on the doors and handles. Florists sell it on its own or as part of a package with the bouquet.

  • Choose fresh or artificial. Artificial flowers cost less and survive a long day in the sun.
  • Ask how the arrangement is fixed. Suction mounts and magnets are common, and you’ll want nothing that scratches the paint.
  • Keep the windscreen and windows clear so the driver can see properly.
  • Confirm who installs it, where, and at what time on the morning of the wedding.

Timing and customs

When to book a wedding florist

Florists interviewed by SingaporeBrides advised contacting florists six months to a year before the wedding. They also noted that some independent florists take only one wedding a day, so popular dates fill early, especially in the busy year-end season.

Auspicious dates put even more pressure on suppliers. When 22 February 2022 came round, at least 483 couples filed to marry on that day, compared with an average of 58 marriages on a weekday. If your date is a number pattern or falls on a favoured day in the Chinese calendar, book early.

Colour matters for many families too. In Chinese tradition, red stands for joy, luck and prosperity, while white and black are traditionally associated with mourning. If you’d like a white palette, it’s worth talking it through with your parents first. A florist who knows local customs will usually suggest ways to balance the two.

Questions to ask

Questions to ask a wedding florist

  • Are you free on our date, and how many weddings do you take that day?
  • Can we see recent weddings similar in size and style to ours?
  • What’s included in the quote: delivery, set-up, teardown, GST?
  • Which flowers would you recommend for our venue and the time of day?
  • What happens if a flower we’ve chosen isn’t available that week?
  • Have you worked at our venue, and do you know its set-up rules?
  • Can any ceremony flowers be moved to the reception?
  • What’s the deposit, payment schedule and cancellation policy?

Frequently asked questions

How much is a bridal bouquet in Singapore?

Starting prices for a fresh bridal bouquet on the Singapore florist websites we checked in October 2026 ran from S$65 for a small rose posy to about S$370. Most full bouquets started between S$180 and S$250, before GST and delivery.

How far ahead should we book a wedding florist?

Florists interviewed by SingaporeBrides advised six months to a year ahead. Book earlier for year-end dates and auspicious dates, because some florists take only one wedding a day.

Can we use our own florist at a hotel wedding?

Often, yes, but it depends on the venue. Hotels such as Amara Singapore allow external florists subject to approval and their safety, installation and dismantling rules. Ask your venue about fees and set-up times before you sign with a florist.

Can we decorate the room for a ROM solemnisation?

Not at the Ficus Room at Gardens by the Bay. ROM’s guide says no decoration is allowed there because the basic set-up is done. Personal flowers such as a bouquet and boutonniere are the usual choice. Check the latest rules on the ROM website.

Which wedding flowers last best in Singapore's heat?

Ask your florist about the specific flowers you like. Hydrangeas are known to wilt quickly in heat and humidity. Keeping flowers in air-conditioning, delivering them close to the ceremony and choosing preserved flowers for pieces you’ll carry all day all help.
