Honest status: QuoteZila is pre-launch. Customers cannot post jobs yet, and no businesses are listed yet. This page explains how QuoteZila will work for florists, and for homeowners who need one. We are signing up local businesses first, starting in Cheshire.
What does a florist do?
A florist arranges and sells flowers for gifts, weddings, funerals and events, and some also provide regular displays for homes and businesses. Typical jobs include:
- Wedding bouquets, buttonholes and venue flowers
- Funeral tributes and sympathy flowers
- Event and table displays
- Bouquets and gifts for birthdays
- Regular flowers for offices and shops
- Flower arranging workshops
What should I check before hiring a florist?
General guidance, whichever way you find someone:
- Look at examples of their work and agree the colours, flowers and style, bearing in mind what is in season.
- Ask about delivery, set-up and collection of any vases or stands, and what is included.
- For weddings and funerals, agree timings carefully and confirm everything in writing.
- Ask about deposits and what happens if a flower is not available.
QuoteZila plans to show customers what we checked about each business and when. Those labels describe checks only and are not a guarantee of any business or its work.
How will QuoteZila help me find florists near me?
- Post your job for free. Describe the floristry work and where you are.
- Matched local businesses send quotes. Each job is planned to go to a small number of suitable businesses, not the whole town.
- Compare. See what each quote includes, ask questions and review what has been checked.
- Choose. Pick who you want and agree the details in writing.
This is how QuoteZila is designed to work. Customer posting is not open yet.
What should I put in my florist job description?
- Give the date, the place and what you need flowers for.
- Describe colours and style, and attach reference photos.
- Say how many arrangements, bouquets or tables.
- Mention the budget you have in mind, if you wish to share it.
Are you a florist in Cheshire? How can you get local work with no lead fees?
QuoteZila is built so that local businesses spend their time quoting, not buying enquiries. Our intention is no lead fees: you would not pay per enquiry, per job or per quote. The first 500 businesses to join at launch (the Launch 500) get 2 months free with no card needed. After that the planned price is £15 a month, starting later and only once you accept the terms. That is our current plan, not a contract. Choose Florist as your main trade on the sign-up form and tell us how far you travel.

Which Cheshire towns will QuoteZila cover?
We are launching first in Crewe, Nantwich, Sandbach, Congleton, Winsford, Middlewich, and the wider county. See the Cheshire areas page for details. A launch area is where we plan to start, not a claim that florists are already listed there.
Frequently asked questions about florists
How early should I book wedding flowers?
Popular dates can go quickly, so contact florists early. Share your date and venue so they can say whether they are available.
Can a florist match the flowers to my colour scheme?
Usually yes, although some flowers are seasonal. Share photos of your colours and style, and ask the florist for suitable alternatives.
