What a single session can clarify
"Good floristry starts with honest questions, not beautiful answers."
Where floristry gets specific
Weeks ahead
Most seasonal varieties need this much lead time to source reliably — especially native Australian blooms and imported stems.
Arrangement types
From low table centrepieces to suspended installations — the format changes the flower choices, not just the look.
Average prep time
Conditioning, cutting, and hydrating stems before any arrangement begins — skipping this step shortens vase life significantly.
Session length
Each consultation runs one focused hour — enough time to cover brief, palette, sourcing, and a realistic timeline without rushing.
How a session actually runs
Each consultation follows a loose structure — loose enough to follow where the conversation goes, structured enough that nothing important gets missed.
Brief and context
We start with the occasion, setting, and any existing colour decisions. A corporate foyer installation needs a different starting point than a weekend market stall.
Palette and variety selection
Colour theory in floristry works differently than in paint — stems fade, dry, and shift tone. We map out combinations that hold up over the intended display period.
Sourcing and timeline
Local growers, wholesale markets, and specialty importers each have different lead times and minimum orders. We match your brief to what's actually available.
Written summary
You receive a concise document covering variety names, sourcing contacts, and a preparation checklist — something concrete to act on after the session ends.
Perspectives from past sessions
"Knowing the right questions changed what I ordered entirely."
Most people arrive with a vague aesthetic in mind and leave with a workable plan. The shift happens when variety names replace adjectives — "soft pink" becomes ranunculus or sweet pea, and suddenly sourcing becomes a real conversation.
Consultations at Claimentrypoint are not about selling a particular look. They're about giving you enough specific knowledge to make decisions confidently, whether you're working with a florist or arranging independently.
Ingrid Halvorsen
Event coordinator, Melbourne
I came in with a mood board and left with an actual sourcing list. The conversation about lead times alone saved me from a very stressful week — I had no idea certain proteas needed that much notice.
Tara Osei-Mensah
Independent florist, Brisbane
I was already working professionally but wanted a second perspective on pricing structure and variety substitutions. The written summary was genuinely useful — I still refer back to the conditioning notes.
