Large-Scale Church Floral Arrangements: Sourcing & Design

Creating arrangements for a large chapel or church requires scaling up both materials and mechanics.

Sourcing Wholesale

Use your church’s tax ID to open an account with a local floral wholesaler. Purchase Oasis foam, containers, and fresh flowers in bulk at significant savings.

Flower Choices for Distance Viewing

Select large, bold materials visible from afar:

• Lemon leaf (salal)
• Gladiola
• Asiatic lily
• Liatris
• Other tall, substantial blooms

Design Resources

• FTD website for arrangement photos and ideas
• National Garden Clubs (www.ngc.org) for design principles and training
• Florist order books (show catalogs) for professional inspiration

Start with simple, large-scale designs and build confidence. Your arrangements will be beautiful.
