The florists photo in some instances may include a one-of-a-kind vase which cannot be replicated, but we will ensure that your arrangement adheres to the overall theme or look. Although the arrangement or bouquet may not match the photo exactly, the temperament will. On occasion, we may have to make substitutions of flowers or vases due to weather, seasonality, and market conditions which may affect the availability. If this is the scenario, the florist will ensure that the style, theme, and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and the necessary substitutions are of equal or higher value.
