Wollongong Event Florists, Side by Side

Picking the Right Event Florist

Florists in the Illawarra split broadly into two groups: those working with fresh stems, and those who make silk or artificial pieces that last beyond the day. Fresh flowers bring scent and seasonal colour; faux pieces can be hired, kept or reused, and won't wilt at an outdoor ceremony in the heat.

On the fresh side, Pepe's Garden designs wedding, event and corporate florals from mostly Australian-grown stems, with a tailored proposal and a client portal for booking planning meetings. Shique Floral Design, trading since 2013, builds bouquets, centrepieces and installations to order from fresh market flowers and delivers to the venue. Mrs Gibbons Flowers, led by Amber Gibbons, plans ceremony designs, tablescapes and hanging installations as a single look, then installs and packs them down in-house. Leah Mitchell Floral Design brings more than 20 years of wedding work, with delivery, set-up and pack-down included.

For lasting flowers, Lilies and Lace Weddings hand-makes artificial bouquets to hire or keep, and Owl and Pussycat Events designs luxury silk florals and backdrops.

Where each florist fits best:

  • Large installations and hanging pieces: Mrs Gibbons Flowers.
  • Corporate and workplace flowers: Pepe's Garden and Shique Floral Design.
  • Full wedding floral design: Leah Mitchell Floral Design, From $5000.
  • Bridal party flowers to hire: Lilies and Lace Weddings.
  • Ready-made party styling: Owl and Pussycat Events, From $700.

Every florist here travels across Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama. Pair the flowers with Wollongong event stylists, or plan a bridal shower around them.
