You no longer need to be single (or a gifted catcher) for a chance to leave your next wedding with a beautiful bouquet in hand. A new trend gives all guests the opportunity to blossom by building their own special arrangements to take home. 

Wedding flowers have always been an important part of the overall look and ambiance of the big day, but roaming flower carts now allow hand-picked petals to be an interactive experience. Bloom bars can be rented for reception entertainment, to add elegance to a bridal lunch or for crafting DIY favors at a shower. Guests can choose from a variety of single stems, greenery and all of the trimmings. Create a professional-looking bunch, a whimsical bundle or even enhance your outfit with a flower crown.

Here are some Coastal Virginia flower truck options:

Looking for options? Check out Ashley’s for full wedding and event flowers or book a small flower cart or the adorable old truck packed with pretty. Packages include florists to help guests create their bouquets and local blooms ready to wrap and designed to fit your unique color palette, match a theme or reflect the season.

The Petal Wagon

A bright turquoise truck with yellow rims cheerfully welcomes patrons to the “flower bar,” where they can hand-select flowers and arrangements. The wagon travels to markets and events—owners welcome customized collaborations, advertising “floral services of any kind.” If you get hooked on fresh-cut stems, it also offers a subscription program that delivers seasonal blooms weekly, bi-weekly or monthly.
