Frequently Asked Questions
Shops
How many shops do you have and where are they located?
We have three! One in Franklin, inside The Factory, one in West Nashville inside the L&L Market, and one in East Nashville at the Shops at Porter East.
Where do you deliver?
We deliver to the Greater Nashville Area and Franklin. If you're unsure if your desired address is in our range, you can input your zip code when checking out and it will let you know!
When is the cutoff for same-day delivery?
Order by 12pm Monday through Friday and your flowers go out the same day for a small additional fee. We'll email you when your order is on its way and again once it's been delivered.
How much do your flowers cost?
In store, our flowers are priced per stem and range from $2.50-$8/stem.
For delivery, Amelia's Pick starts at $55. That's the bouquet our designers build every morning out of whatever came in looking best, and it's the one most people send. Classic arrangements are $115. Fully custom starts at $150.
If you'd rather send flowers more than once, subscriptions run $175 for three months, $350 for six, and $675 for the year. Delivery gets added at checkout.
Do you only carry flowers in the shops?
No! We have a variety of gifts and home goods to choose from, as well as a more extensive variety of flowers and dried flowers.
Do you ship outside of Nashville?
Fresh flowers stay local. We hand-deliver those across greater Nashville and Franklin.
Can I pick up my order instead of having it delivered?
You can. Choose pickup at checkout and we'll email you the second it's ready.
- L&L Market, 3820 Charlotte Ave โ every day, 10am to 5pm
- Shops at Porter East, 711 Porter Road โ Tuesday through Sunday, 11 to 5pm
Do you host workshops?
We sure do! Check out our Workshops page.
Do you have a minimum for weddings and events?
Nope. No minimum, no set packages, no starting price you have to clear before we'll talk to you. You tell us what you actually need โ three bouquets, forty centerpieces, one very good boutonniere โ and we build it by hand to fit your budget. We'll also bring a flower truck out, or set up a flower bar where your guests build their own bouquets to take home. Send us an inquiry and we'll get you a quote.
Flowers
Where do we source our flowers?
We source our flowers from a local Nashville wholesaler and local flower farms.
What if a flower I wanted isn't available?
It happens. We buy from a Nashville wholesaler and from farms around Middle Tennessee, so what's in the cooler depends on the season and sometimes on the week.
If something you wanted isn't there, our designers swap in something just as good โ same colors, same feeling, same value or better. It'll look like the arrangement you ordered. And if one specific flower matters for one specific reason, put it in the order notes and we'll call you before we change a thing.
How long do your flowers last?
That's tricky as flowers are a living thing and their timer starts when they are cut from the ground but we can assure you that our flowers are some of the most fresh! We have had people tell us that our flowers can last up to 18 days! Typically, the flowers should stay happy and beautiful for up to a week but it all depends on the flower variety.
Do you recommend flower food?
We do not see the need for flower food. We suggest changing the water *at least* every other day and trimming the stems slightly when you do.
Do the flowers travel well?
YES! I personally have traveled from Nashville to Florida with a bouquet of flowers and they were out of water for at least 8 hours. They may look a little wilted once they arrive to your destination but once they are in water, they perk right up!
Why are Amelia's Flowers the best in town?
Great question! Because not only do they last the longest but each bouquet is made with love and care.
About the Flower Trucks
Everything you need to know about the Original VW Transporter Flower Trucks
What is Amelia's Flower Truck?
It's a vintage pickup full of buckets of fresh-cut stems, parked somewhere around Nashville, where you can stand as long as you like and pick out exactly what you want. We wrap it for you right there. People come for a birthday, or an apology, or a Tuesday and we love all three equally.
I built the first one from scratch with my dad back in 2016. By the end of that year there were three, and somehow the idea kept going. There are flower trucks all over the world now, which still surprises me!
What year are the trucks?
Amy and Rory are both 1962, and Melody is a 1965. They're older than most of our customers, a little temperamental when it gets cold, and we are extremely fond of all three of them.
Where did you find them?
I found Amy, our agave green on, on an auction website and it was located in California. I bought it sight unseen and thankfully it was just as beautiful in person as it was online. Rory, our blue one, was a barn find in Jackson, TN. I drove out to look at him and drove him home that day. My dad found Melody, our white one, in Texas. He flew out to take a look for me and we had it shipped to Nashville shortly after.
Are they manual transmission?
All three. It means only a handful of us can drive them, and that every one of us has a story about a hill. We wouldn't change it.
Do you drive them daily?
Not every day anymore. The three shops handle the day-to-day now, and the trucks come out for events, weddings and pop-ups which honestly suits them at their age. When one of them is parked somewhere public we post it on Instagram first, so that's the best place to catch us.
Can i book the truck for my wedding or event?
Yes, and it's our favorite thing we do. We bring a truck out for weddings, corporate parties, festivals and launches. Your guests pick their own stems from the buckets and we build the bouquets right there in front of them. People end up standing around the truck all night, which is sort of the whole idea.
Send us your date and we'll tell you what's free. We'd love to be there.
Do the travel outside of nashville?
They stay close to home. greater Nashville and Franklin. They're sixty-year-old trucks and we'd very much like them to see sixty-one. If you're just outside that, ask us anyway and we'll see what we can work out.
