1. The Bridal Bouquet - Your Personal Statement Piece

Your bridal bouquet is more than just flowers – it's an extension of your personality and style. Whether you prefer classic roses, wildflower charm, or exotic blooms, your bouquet should reflect who you are. At A Flower Box, we create unique, creative designs that avoid cookie-cutter looks, ensuring your bouquet is as individual as your love story.

Starting at $250, our bridal bouquets are crafted with premium flowers and personalized touches.


2. Ceremony Arch or Backdrop - Creating Your "I Do" Moment

Nothing frames your vows quite like a stunning floral arch. From cascading greenery with soft blooms to bold, dramatic arrangements, your ceremony backdrop sets the tone for your entire celebration. Our rental arches ($500) can be customized with seasonal flowers that complement Alabama's beautiful outdoor venues.


3. Bridesmaids' Bouquets - Coordinated Beauty

Your bridesmaids' bouquets should complement your bridal bouquet while allowing each personality to shine. We design cohesive arrangements that photograph beautifully and make your wedding party feel special and coordinated.


4. Boutonnieres - The Perfect Finishing Touch

These small but mighty arrangements ($18 each) add polish to your groomsmen's look. From classic white roses to unique seasonal blooms, boutonnieres tie your wedding party's look together seamlessly.


5. Corsages for Special Guests - Honoring Loved Ones

Show appreciation for mothers, grandmothers, and special guests with elegant corsages ($40 each). These thoughtful touches make your loved ones feel honored and create beautiful photo opportunities.


6. Centerpieces - Setting Your Reception Scene

Reception centerpieces create ambiance and conversation starters. Whether you prefer tall, dramatic arrangements or low, intimate designs, centerpieces should complement your venue without overwhelming your guests' ability to connect across the table.


7. Aisle Petals or Runners - Your Walk Down the Aisle

Create a magical path with scattered petals or floral arrangements lining your aisle. This detail adds romance and helps guide all eyes to you as you make your grand entrance.


8. Altar Arrangements - Framing Your Ceremony Space

Large floral arrangements flanking your ceremony space create a beautiful backdrop for your vows. These arrangements work especially well for indoor ceremonies or venues that need additional floral impact.


9. Cake Flowers - Sweet Finishing Touches

Fresh flowers on your wedding cake create an elegant, natural look that photographs beautifully. We coordinate with your baker to ensure flowers are food-safe and complement your cake design perfectly.


10. Reception Entrance Arrangements - Welcome Your Guests

First impressions matter! Beautiful arrangements at your reception entrance welcome guests and set expectations for the celebration ahead.


Planning Your Perfect Floral Design

Every wedding is unique, and your floral arrangements should reflect your personal style, venue, and budget. As Gulf Shores' premier wedding florists, we specialize in destination weddings and work with couples from across Alabama and surrounding states.
