What makes a Warehouse 12 arrangement a “luxury” design?
Luxury floral design is about sourcing the highest quality blooms and using expert compositional techniques. We frequently design with premium varieties such as orchids, peonies, garden roses, dahlias, and calla lilies. These blooms often require specialized care and offer unique, sophisticated textures that elevate an event.
How do you ensure my event florals look balanced and professional?
We utilize core principles of floral architecture to guide proportion and harmony. By grouping focal blooms, secondary textures, and structural elements in specific, natural ratios, we create arrangements with proper depth, hierarchy, and visual movement.
What floral trends are you seeing for upcoming events?
We are seeing a major shift toward high-energy, immersive styles. The focus is currently on shape, movement, and intention rather than traditional, tightly packed spheres. Expect to see long flowing orchids, calla lilies with exposed stems, architectural setups, and a shift toward saturated, expressive color palettes rather than exclusively light and airy tones.
How do I care for my custom arrangement at home?
To maximize the life of your flowers, avoid common cutting mistakes. Always use sharp shears, as dull scissors will crush the stem vessels. Cut the stems at a sharp angle rather than horizontally to prevent the stems from resting flat against the bottom of the vase, which blocks water absorption. Finally, change the water daily and add floral food to prolong floral life.
How far in advance should I book Warehouse 12 Studio for my wedding or event?
For large-scale events and weddings, we recommend securing your date up to 6 months in advance. Because we take on a limited number of events to maintain our bespoke quality and editorial focus, prime dates book quickly.
Do you provide mockups of the floral designs before the event?
Yes. For full-scale event productions, a physical design mockup can be arranged once the initial retainer is secured. This allows us to fine-tune the scale, color palette, and architectural elements of your tablescapes or centerpieces before the big day.
Do you travel for events outside of Miami?
While our studio is based in Miami, our founder, Chah, has extensive experience executing designs across Dubai, Lebanon, New York City and Chicago. We are available for destination events and will travel to bring our signature structural styling to your venue.
Where do your flowers come from?
To achieve our luxury aesthetic, we source premium blooms globally. Depending on the season and your specific design needs, we source rare, high-quality flowers from the Netherlands, specialized farms in South America, and trusted local growers.
Can I request specific flower varieties for my arrangement?
Absolutely. We welcome your inspiration and favorite blooms. However, because we prioritize the highest quality and freshness, we also work within seasonal availability. If a specific flower does not meet our standards for your event date, we will utilize our substitution policy to find a bloom of equal value that perfectly matches the architectural shape and color palette of your design.
