Le Petite Centerpiece

---

DO YOU ONLY DO SUBSCRIPTION FLORAL OR AM I ABLE TO ORDER DAY-OF OCCASIONAL ARRANGEMENTS?

Unfortunately, not. We are a boutique floral studio, specializing in weekly, unique design, that pre-orders botanicals based on specific themes for each week. Since we procure small batches to create design for current clients, custom pieces are difficult to build outside of what we would already have in-stock. However, if you're willing to embrace the present week's theme, we could certainly attempt to accommodate. Simply email hello@theflowerandvine.com directly with your request.

DO YOU DO WEDDINGS AND EVENTS?

On occasion - depending on budget ($2500 minimum), location (Greater Seattle area) and date. Our primary focus is in ongoing floral delivery, but we do have fabulous partnerships we leverage for special events. Please visit the Consultation page to schedule an appointment.

DO YOU ONLY SERVICE MERCER ISLAND?

Yes and no. Yes, all deliveries to Mercer Island residents are complimentary, however, if you are in the Greater Seattle Area and elect the Signature or Statement floral delivery service, we are happy to deliver at no cost.

WHAT IS THE BLOOM-REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE?

All subscription deliveries are backed by a bloom-replacement clause, which means that our flowers are intended to last at least one week - because of how they are procured and prepared - or else they will be replaced, at no cost.

WHAT DOES COMPLIMENTARY VASE RENTAL AND TAKE-AWAY ENTAIL?

Every week, other week, or month that we deliver your new arrangement, a new vase/vessel is provided, while expired pieces are picked up and composted, disinfected and reused. This cuts cost (and keeps your vase inventory in-home to a minimum). However, if you LOVE the vase your arrangement came in and don't want to part with it, email us and we'll include a small purchase charge on your next invoice. 

WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR FLOWERS?

As an advocate for the Slow Flower Movement, stems are sourced from local farmers and/or American-grown, as much as possible. By keeping in-season, arrangements complement the scenery, are always fresh, leave a minimal footprint, and are composted after retrieval - or in some cases, redesigned with new flowers and given as "Circle of Kindness" gifts to those less fortunate.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY WEEKLY "THEMES"?

Each week, pieces have a specific focus or color palate, based on the month's theme.  For example, January is "Zenuary" and features Ikebana-style pieces (the 600-year-old Japanese art of floral design).  February is all above looooove, May is "Bach Flower Remedy Month," and July is particularly special because - if you love lavender - you're in luck! My family has a boutique farm in Olympia (Evergreen Valley Lavender Farm), so weekly arrangements will showcase this very special, colorful, and healing plant. 

WHO IS "WE"? HOW BIG IS YOUR STUDIO?

"We" is mostly me - Genevieve, the owner.  I procure and design all of the floral, write the articles, newsletters and social material, network with local business, and deliver the majority of our pieces. However, I do have some amazing help! My husband is involved with marketing, Jennifer is my right-hand, Mikaela and Sienna are my in-shop helpers, and Laurie (of Fab Floral) is my go-to for weddings and events. It takes a village and I am so grateful for our small but passionate tribe!
