I don’t want to see my flowers go to waste after my event But I’m not sure I want to take the arrangements home. Do you repurpose the flowers?

MIDCOAST BLOOMS strives to reuse and repurpose flowers and resources in the most efficient ways possible. At the close of your event, if you have flowers remaining, we can collect and donate your arrangement to a nearby organization/non-profit where the leftover blooms will get a second life and put beautiful smiles on the faces of others. You can read more about our floral repurposing, here.

Do you have a store or public studio? How can I know what my event will look like if I can’t come by and see what you do?

We work out of a private studio not open to the public. This allows us to focus exclusively on producing your event instead of interrupting the design process to wait on customers. We’d be happy to make a date to meet you and show you our extensive portfolio of work, and to discuss ideas for your unique event.
