Why do floral designers need a contract for weddings and events?
A contract represents a “meeting of the minds”.
It’s a mutual agreement; one party lays out the terms, the other party willingly agrees. ADDITIONALLY, your contract needs to spell out what will happen if the contract is breached.
The terms of your contract need to be clear, concise and most importantly they must be LEGAL. In short, a good contract has to communicate much more than just your payment terms.
And that’s why I created this affordable Contracts for Florists pdf to help you create terms that work for your small business.

Real Florists Say…
Why Did I Create This Course?
I worked with a loose-goosey contract for almost a decade, until one day, I ran into an issue with a client and my heart sank as I realized that my contract did NOT protect me! That’s the day I hired a lawyer. It cost me about $850 to draft a new contract–but I knew I would never get that sinking feeling again!
A strong, solid contract is a must if you own a flower business. If you’ve been skating by with a freewheeling, loosey-goosey contract it’s time for an upgrade.
You can hire an attorney to draw up a contract at $150-350/hour (or more) who may or may not understand the specific needs of a florist, OR you can follow the outline in my Contracts for Florists Template to draft a contract that suits your company’s specific needs for just $99 and then, have it reviewed by a local attorney.
Legal disclaimer: This course includes the exact language of my wedding/events contract, as well as additional suggestions for terms and conditions you may want to add to your contract, HOWEVER, you should consult a local attorney when drafting a contract.
