Where is El Camino located?

El Camino Blooms is based out of Jacksonville, FL. We most frequently connect with couples in the Southeast, but would absolutely love to flower your future event, no matter where you are planning to celebrate.

Do you grow all of the flowers you use in events?

While the dream would be a resounding “YES,” we only have access to our private garden space at this time. We utilize other local flower farmers’ flowers as much as possible and outsource to our favorite wholesalers when necessary. Who knows, maybe a bigger plot of land is in the future for El Camino..

What does the average El Camino couple look like?

The average El Camino guy or gal loves a bit of whimsy. They may have no idea what kind of flowers tickle their fancy (or maybe they all do), but they are lovers of nature, unafraid of texture and romance. We are here to guide you in any way we can in your planning process and appreciate your trust in creating your beloved floral designs.

Whether in a table arrangement or installation piece, we love to let our blooms progress as they would appear in nature, full of movement and organic shapes. Nature provides us with so many beautiful elements for design, we feel it is our duty to honor each ingredient in our work. If this ideology resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.

Does El Camino have an event minimum for florals?

FULL-SERVICED EVENTS
Full-scale events include detailed floral planning with El Camino, a detailed visual proposal & quote, and up to two in-person meetings to discuss your event, if desired. This includes day of set-up (florals, rented candles and vessels etc) with our team and clean-up after your event.

The minimum spend on florals for a full-service El Camino weekend event (fri-sun) or wedding is $4,200 USD for events with up to 90 guests.

We realize this is an investment and worth considering only if you wish for florals to play a significant role in your event and we value every bit of that notion.

Based on our past events, the average spend on florals for a full-service event often falls between $6,500- $9,000 USD per average 90 guests. We never want to waste your time with getting to the gritty answers. Flowers can create an unforgettable impact for your special day & we cherish being able to create alongside you for it.

Á LA CARTE & INTIMATE EVENTS

If the event you are planning is smaller in scale, (We love a good intimate gathering or elopement, too.) and you are open to a seasonally-inspired choice of blooms, we would love to create your dream florals for your small-scale event.

This option is strictly á la carte & does not entail any in-person meetings or event set up. Á La Carte is a pick-up or drop-off only service option. (Your inspiration + mood board is still welcome!) Á la Carte and Intimate Events begin at a base investment of $340 and can only be picked up or dropped off, requiring no set-up service. We love flowering no matter what size the event & would hate for you to miss out on the wonderful impact florals can have for your special event or small gathering.
