Call 612-861-7620 to schedule a complimentary appointment with one
of our consultants six months to six weeks before your wedding date.
Because it's very difficult to take walk-in appointments, we recommend calling
2-3 weeks before the day you would like to come in for your consultation.
Appointments are scheduled at our Lyndale store (6010 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis).
We take appointments Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays during the day; Tuesday
evenings and on Saturdays. Evenings and Saturdays fill up more quickly,
usually at least 2-3 weeks out.
2. What should I expect at the appointment?
An average consultation can last one-and-a-half to two hours. Bachman's
award-winning designers will work with you to help you decide exactly what
you want and then we'll create everything you desire -- including bouquets,
corsages and boutonnieres, church and reception flowers -- all guaranteed
to enhance your wedding day.
3. What should I do to prepare for my consultation?
Look in books and magazines for ideas that fit what you want your wedding
to be. Formal? Traditional? Garden-look? Remember we can change colors or
flowers to achieve your vision.
It’s helpful if you can provide us with the following information:
Day
Date and time of wedding ceremony
Picture time
Complete name, address and phone numbers for ceremony and reception
location
Contact person at ceremony/ reception
Color and style of bridal party attire (fabric samples are very helpful.)
4. What are some pricing guidelines and what determines
the price?
Bachman’s wedding department works with brides who have a wide range of
budgets. The price of wedding flowers depends on type of flower, quantity,
and seasonal availability. These are some general pricing guidelines. Most
bridal bouquets are in the $100.00-$150.00 range and bridesmaids in the
$50.00 - $90.00 range. We can make bouquets larger or smaller. Boutonnieres
usually are $7.50-$12.50 and corsages usually are $10.00 – $20.00.
Boutonnieres for men: Groom and groomsmen, ushers, ring bearers,
fathers and grandfathers. Boutonnieres are also often chosen for readers,
musicians, escorts, hosts, godfathers or other family members. Corsages for women: Mothers, grandmothers, personal attendants, readers,
musicians, hostesses, cake cutters, and people who hand out programs usually
wear corsages. Mothers could also carry a small nosegay or flowers on a
purse.

and boutonnieres from silk flowers.
