One of the most common questions we hear is, "How much should I spend on flowers?"
The answer depends less on the occasion and more on what you want your bouquet to say. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, sending sympathy, or surprising someone "just because," there's a beautiful option at almost every budget.
Here's our guide to choosing the right price point.

A bouquet in this range is a meaningful way to brighten someone's day. Expect a beautifully wrapped bouquet featuring seasonal flowers and greenery.

Does Spending More Mean Better Flowers?
Not necessarily.
The best bouquets aren't about using the most expensive flowers—they're about using the freshest flowers.
That's why our Freestyle Designer's Choice bouquets change daily. We design around what's looking incredible that week, allowing us to maximize beauty at every budget.
Let Your Florist Guide You
You don't need to know flower names or exactly what you want.
Simply tell us:
- Your budget
- The occasion
- Any favorite colors
- A general style (bright, soft, modern, romantic)
We'll handle the rest.
Flowers Are About Thoughtfulness
Whether you spend $40 or $400, the most memorable bouquets are the ones sent with intention.
A thoughtfully designed arrangement says, "I was thinking about you."
And that's something people remember long after the flowers have faded.
