A practical way to price florist work

itemized or package estimates combining flowers, labor, delivery, setup, rentals, and strike terms.

The RateWise calculator starts with your costs and desired income, then divides that target by your realistic billable hours. Use the result as a planning floor and tailor the client-facing quote to scope and local conditions.

What changes the price?

  • flower availability, seasonality, and substitutions
  • design complexity, mechanics, and labor
  • delivery, installation, rentals, and strike

Minimum-job example

A minimum order or event minimum protects sourcing, conditioning, design setup, and delivery for smaller requests. In the calculator, try your expected billable hours first, then use the minimum-job result as a check against short appointments or small projects.

Florist pricing FAQ

How should florists handle flower substitutions?

Include a substitution policy that preserves the overall color, style, and value when a specific stem is unavailable.

Do florists charge for setup and strike?

They should be addressed separately when they require venue coordination, installation labor, rentals, or return pickup.

Should a florist publish an hourly rate?

An hourly figure can be useful internally, but the customer-facing format should match the work. Use itemized or package estimates combining flowers, labor, delivery, setup, rentals, and strike terms and make travel, materials, revisions, or add-ons clear before the job begins.

How do I use this florist pricing calculator?

Start with the suggested inputs, replace them with your own monthly costs, income goal, and realistic billable hours, then use the result as a planning floor—not a guaranteed market price.
