The Belli Fiori Experience

More Than Just Flowers

When you partner with Belli Fiori, you are investing in both a premium product and an immersive service. We are not just your local florist arranging stems; we are full-scale floral and event designers who have spent over 17 years crafting custom productions in St. Louis.

From your initial concept sketches to selecting the perfect linens, collaborating with lighting techs, constructing grand architectural structures, and managing tight behind-the-scenes "room flips," our expert team handles every detail so you can simply soak in the magic of your day.

Understanding Your Floral Investment

We believe in complete transparency when it comes to budgeting. The ultimate cost of your wedding florals is influenced by a variety of moving parts:

  • Your Guest & Table Counts: More tables mean more centerpieces, candlelight, and curated settings.

  • Must-Have Blooms: Seasonality, color palettes, and premium floral selections play a role.

  • The "Wow" Installations: Custom flower walls, elevated backdrops, and opulent ceremony structures that require extensive labor and structural engineering.

  • The Production & Artistry: Custom proposals, hours of specialized hand-crafting, and seamless setup and strike by a veteran team.

Use our interactive tool to estimate your floral design needs. Enter your estimated guest count, bridal party size, and prioritize your 'must-have' visual elements to see a tailored investment framework.

Let’s Bring Your Dream Day to Life

💡 Design Tip: If flowers are in your top three priorities for your wedding day, we recommend allocating a higher percentage of your overall event budget to floral and event design to achieve those jaw-dropping, Instagram-worthy moments.

How to estimate your table counts:

Determine the size tables available at your venue. A general rule is allocating 2-feet of space per person.

  • 72-in round: ~ 10 guests

  • 60-in round: ~ 8 guests

  • 48- in round: ~ 4-6 guests

Divide your estimated guest count by the number of guests each table can hold to determine the number of tables you will need.

Long Tables

If you plan to use long tables, farmhouse tables or serpentine tables, use the 2-foot rule. If you plan to have guests seated on both sides of the table then the following would apply:

  • 8-foot table ~ 8 guests (four on each side)

  • 16-foot table ~16 guests (eight on each side)

Adding people on the ends of your long tables can increase the number of guests seated, but make sure the table is wide enough to accommodate this, and be sure to check with your venue.
