Events

Flowers for a party, a banquet or a gala

Birthday dinners, church banquets, fundraisers and reunions. Call and talk to a florist about centerpieces that fit the room and the budget.

Planning event flowers

Muskogee hosts a lot of events, from class reunions and church banquets to fundraisers and award nights. Flowers are often the last thing planned and the first thing people notice when they walk in.

Start with the basics: the date, the venue, how many tables and what the tables look like. Round tables for eight need different centerpieces than long tables. If there is a head table or a stage, ask about a larger arrangement there.

Ask about delivery and setup. Some florists deliver and place everything, others prefer pickup. That is up to the florist. For weddings, see our ceremony and reception flowers page.

Ideas

Planning tips

  • Count the tables

  • Leave time

    Call two or more weeks ahead for larger events.
