Wedding and Event Flowers - Melbourne Delivery

At Melissa’s Florist & Gifts, we understand that planning a wedding involves many moving parts and choosing the right flowers is one of the most meaningful. That’s why we’ve created this wedding flower price guide, to give you a clear starting point and help you plan with confidence.

In Australia, the average cost of wedding flowers is around $2,444 in 2025 (2025 Annual Wedding Industry Report Easy Weddings), with some couples spending significantly more depending on their vision and venue.

A good rule of thumb is to allocate 8–10% of your total wedding budget for flowers. If you're planning a floral-heavy aesthetic (e.g., hanging installations, floral arches), consider increasing this to 15% or more.

With over a decade of experience designing floral arrangements in Melbourne, we understand the significance of your wedding day as one of the most memorable moments of your life. We're delighted to make your wedding unforgettable on your behalf and respect your personal style with flowers that exude elegance and intention.

We would be delighted to accommodate your budget and preferences as well as recommend floral styles to bring your vision to life.
