DIY vs Done For You:
Which is Right for You?
At Sola Wood Flowers, we understand that every wedding is unique. That's why we offer two distinct options to cater to different needs and preferences: Do-It-Yourself and Done-For-You.

Making the Choice: Cost and Time
Considerations
Choosing between DIY and Done-For-You isn't just about cost—time and enjoyment are also key factors.
On average, choosing the DIY route could save you about 50-70% compared to traditional florist prices, making it a great option if you're planning on a tight budget. However, keep in mind that DIY also requires an investment of both time and effort.
On the other hand, opting for our Done-For-You service offers a more streamlined experience. Although the upfront cost is higher—around 30-50% less than traditional florists—the time you save can be directed towards other aspects of wedding planning.
