Why Pre-Ordering Your Christmas Flowers Matters (And How to Choose the Perfect Gift)

Why Pre-Ordering Your Christmas Flowers Matters (And How to Choose the Perfect Gift)

Perfect Petals — Delivering right up to 24 December

Christmas arrives quickly — and for many Brisbane households and businesses, the final weeks of December are a whirl of celebrations, end-of-year milestones, and gift giving. Amidst all the excitement, one thing remains certain: the most beautiful Christmas flowers always sell out first.

This year, with demand higher than ever and many families hosting gatherings again, pre-ordering your festive bouquets, centrepieces, and corporate gifts is not just convenient — it’s essential.

At Perfect Petals, we deliver right up to 24 December, but pre-ordering ensures you secure the exact design, size, and delivery date you want before premium stems are gone. Here’s why it matters, and how to choose florals that feel as special as the season itself.


🌹 Why Pre-Ordering Matters More Than Ever

1. Premium Stems Sell Out Quickly

Christmas florals rely on premium roses, festive foliage, and seasonal varieties that have limited availability. By mid-December, wholesalers begin to experience shortages — especially of the luxury stems that make holiday bouquets so memorable.

A pre-order guarantees:

  • Your preferred style

  • Your chosen colour palette

  • Access to the finest stems before they’re allocated elsewhere

  • Zero stress as Christmas week approaches

2. You Secure Your Preferred Delivery Date

With Christmas gatherings, workplace events, and family traditions all happening at once, peak delivery windows fill rapidly.
A pre-order protects your timeframe — whether you’re gifting, hosting, or decorating your space.

3. It Allows for Personalisation & Customisation

Many of our Christmas pieces can be tailored to suit your celebration:

  • Colour palettes to match your décor

  • Personalised ribbons or cards

  • Corporate branding

  • Size variations for table styling

Custom work requires time and design planning. Pre-ordering ensures everything is prepared to perfection.

4. No Last-Minute Stress

Christmas should feel magical, not rushed. Pre-ordering gives you the confidence that your florals are handled — beautifully, professionally, and on schedule.


🎁 Choosing the Perfect Christmas Floral Gift

Whether you’re gifting to family, colleagues, clients, or the host of Christmas lunch, the right flowers elevate the moment. Here are our most popular options this season:

1. The Luxe Christmas Bouquet

A sophisticated blend of velvety reds, crisp whites, and lush festive foliage.
Ideal for:

  • Loved ones

  • Friends celebrating in style

  • Anyone who appreciates refined seasonal beauty

2. Petite Posy Staff Appreciation Bundles

Small in size, rich in sentiment. These are perfect for year-end gratitude.
Ideal for:

  • Teachers

  • Teams

  • EAs, HR departments, and office staff

  • Real estate and hospitality groups

Businesses often gift dozens at once — another reason pre-ordering is essential.

3. Christmas Table Centrepieces

Nothing transforms a home like a beautifully balanced centrepiece.
Our Classic Elegance Centrepiece is a favourite for Christmas gatherings because it can be styled with candles, pine, berries, and fresh blooms to suit any table.

Ideal for:

  • Christmas Day hosts

  • Office festive lunches

  • Long-table celebrations

  • Corporate hospitality gifting

Host gifting is one of the fastest-growing trends in Brisbane this season — florals provide beauty, gratitude, and atmosphere all at once.

4. Corporate Hamper + Floral Duo

Curated for organisations wanting to leave a lasting impression.
Ideal for:

  • VIP clients

  • Executive gifts

  • Staff end-of-year recognition

  • Holiday hospitality suites

With customisation options available, these gifts are memorable without being overly personal — a perfect balance for corporate settings.

5. The Limited-Edition Christmas Wreath

A timeless favourite for front doors, entryways, and reception desks.
Each wreath is hand-built with festive textures, natural materials, and seasonal blooms.


🌿 Why Flowers Make Exceptional Christmas Gifts

Flowers are inherently human. They evoke emotion, nostalgia, gratitude, and celebration.
They work beautifully for:

  • Those who “have everything”

  • Minimalist households

  • People who value experiences over objects

  • Corporate environments

  • Hosts wanting an elevated table setting

  • Last-minute gifts (thanks to delivery up to 24 December)

At Christmas, florals are more than décor — they’re a gesture of presence, beauty, and appreciation.
