A CURATED AFFAIRThe best moments don’t just look beautiful—they feel unforgettable.
Let us create beauty for you-thoughtfully, artfully, always.
Scarborough Affair specializes in intimate weddings and private gatherings of 200 guests or less. Whether you're planning a backyard celebration, a candlelit dinner, or a weekend escape with your closest people, we approach each event with a thoughtful, curated eye.
In addition to floral design, we offer creative direction and styling support—things like choosing the right location, selecting linens and tabletop pieces, or bringing cohesion to your overall aesthetic. While we don’t manage logistics or timelines, we’re here to help shape the visual story and make sure everything feels intentional, layered, and beautiful.
If that sounds like what you’re dreaming up, we’d love to hear from you.
Because beauty lives in the details, and we love the details.
What We Offer
Floral Design Only
Perfect for clients who simply want beautiful, thoughtfully designed flowers. We’ll handle everything from personal flowers to ceremony and reception florals, customized to suit your space and story.
Floral + Creative Styling
For clients who need a bit more creative support. In addition to floral design, we can help with choosing the right location, selecting linens and tabletop pieces, refining your color palette, and shaping the visual tone of the event.
Creative Direction
A deeper level of involvement for those who want their event to feel fully art-directed. We’ll collaborate closely with you (and your planner, if you have one) to make sure every visual detail—from florals to layout to styling—feels cohesive and considered. Please note: we do not handle logistics, timelines, or day-of coordination.
Flowers aren’t just the finishing touch. They’re the atmosphere, the tone, the entire mood of the day.
We love working with couples who understand that florals are more than an add-on. They bring emotion, movement, and a sense of beauty that lingers long after the celebration ends. If you’re simply looking for the lowest quote, we may not be the right fit, and that’s completely okay.
We don’t inflate prices. We design with intention. That means working with the highest quality flowers—rare, seasonal, and often sourced from specialty growers. These blooms are more costly, but they’re what allow us to create work that feels rich, layered, and unforgettable. To do our best work, we need space to design freely and thoughtfully.
From sourcing and prepping blooms to designing, transporting, and installing each piece, this is a detailed, hands-on process from start to finish.
Floral design services typically begin at $5,000 for intimate weddings, private gatherings, and engagement celebrations. Full-scale wedding floral design begins at $10,000. This gives us the time, materials, and creative room to do what we do best.
Looking for support beyond the flowers? For clients seeking a cohesive visual experience, we also offer creative direction. This includes guidance on everything from tabletop selections and color palettes to layout suggestions and location ideas. Styling support begins at $1,200 and varies depending on the scope.
If you’re dreaming of a celebration that feels beautiful down to the last detail, we’d be honored to be part of it.

It’s ideal for clients who value atmosphere and design—and who want their event to be remembered not just for what it celebrated, but how it felt to be there.
Every detail is a choice, and every choice is made by hand.
A Note on Minimums & Proposal Fees
We believe great design requires space to do it well—space in the timeline, space in the creative process, and yes, space in the budget.
Our floral minimums exist to ensure we can source premium blooms, work with a dedicated team, and design each event with the level of care, quality, and intention that defines our work.
Every flower is hand-selected, processed, and arranged with care—often sourced from specialty growers across the globe or small local farms that pour just as much love into what they grow as we do into what we design.
These partners deserve to be paid fairly—and so does every hand that touches your event along the way.
It’s a deeply collaborative process.
Designers, assistants, drivers, and on-site installers all work together to bring your vision to life. From harvesting and hydrating to loading and unloading to placing the final stem, it takes a village. And we believe everyone in that village should be valued.
Our proposal fee allows us to devote real time to your project—before a single flower is ever ordered.
This isn’t just a quote. It’s a design process.
We spend hours developing a custom color palette, sourcing visual inspiration, considering venue flow, mapping out floral placement, and creating a presentation that reflects your unique aesthetic and priorities.
The fee ensures that your project receives the time, thought, and expertise it deserves—and that we’re entering into a creative partnership grounded in trust, intention, and mutual respect.
