Everything You Need to Know About Glow Floral
From weddings and events to daily flowers and gifting, we’re here to help.
What services does Glow Floral Event Design offer?
Glow Floral Event Design offers a curated range of floral and event offerings designed to elevate both life’s biggest milestones and everyday moments. Our work includes full-service wedding planning, month-out coordination, and bespoke floral design for ceremonies and receptions. We also specialize in corporate and private events, sorority gifting and recruitment décor, birthday celebrations, curated gift boxes, gourmet keepsakes, and daily flower delivery throughout Tuscaloosa and Northport. In addition, we host Flower School Workshops for individuals, private groups, and corporate teams. What sets Glow apart is our integrated approach—combining planning, design, florals, and logistics under one roof. Every offering is customized to reflect your vision, style, and needs. Whether you’re sending a thoughtful gift or planning a large-scale event, our team provides concierge-level care, creative expertise, and seamless execution from start to finish.
Do I need to book planning services to use Glow Floral?
No, planning services are not required to work with Glow Floral. Many clients book us exclusively for floral design, curated gifts, or daily flower delivery. Others choose full-service planning or month-out coordination for weddings and events. Our offerings are intentionally flexible, allowing you to engage us in the way that best meets your needs. If you’re planning your own event but want professional florals, we’re happy to design and install those elements independently. If you later decide you’d like additional support, we can discuss adding planning or coordination services when availability allows. This flexibility is especially helpful for couples, families, and organizations with varying timelines and levels of involvement. Whether you need one thoughtful arrangement or comprehensive event management, our team delivers the same level of care, creativity, and professionalism across every offering.
How far in advance should I book Glow Floral?
Booking timelines vary depending on the offering, season, and scale of your event. For weddings and large events, we recommend booking as soon as your date and venue are secured—ideally 9 to 18 months in advance. Sorority recruitment, Bid Day, and Initiation services should be reserved several weeks to months ahead due to high seasonal demand. For curated gift boxes, gourmet keepsakes, and custom florals, we recommend ordering at least two to three days in advance, with more notice for customization. Same-day delivery may be available for select pre-designed items. Workshops and corporate events are best booked early to secure preferred dates. If you’re unsure about timing, reach out—we’re happy to advise based on your needs and availability. Early booking always provides the most flexibility, but we do our best to accommodate shorter timelines whenever possible.
Do you deliver to the University of Alabama campus?
Yes, Glow Floral regularly delivers to the University of Alabama campus, including sorority houses, dorms, and approved campus locations. We specialize in campus deliveries for sorority Initiation, Bid Day, birthdays, and celebratory surprises. Our team is familiar with campus logistics, house access procedures, and timing requirements, ensuring each delivery is handled with care and professionalism. Once your order is delivered, you’ll receive confirmation so you know it arrived safely. This service is especially popular with parents and family members who want to send something meaningful from out of state. Whether it’s fresh flowers, a curated gift box, or a gourmet keepsake, we make campus gifting seamless and stress-free. If you have specific delivery instructions or timing needs, we’re happy to accommodate whenever possible.
Can I customize florals, gifts, or event designs?
Absolutely. Customization is central to Glow Floral’s work. We tailor florals, gifts, and event designs to reflect your style, preferences, and the occasion being celebrated. You can request specific color palettes, flower types, themes, keepsake items, or branded elements when applicable. While some requests depend on seasonal availability, our designers are skilled at offering thoughtful alternatives that maintain the desired look and feel. Customization is available for everything from wedding florals and corporate events to sorority gifts and gourmet keepsakes. We recommend ordering early for custom designs to allow time for sourcing and planning. Our goal is to ensure every detail feels intentional and personal—never generic. When you work with Glow, your vision guides the process, and our team brings it to life with creativity, care, and precision.
Do you offer same-day delivery or last-minute services?
Yes, same-day delivery is available for select fresh flower arrangements and pre-designed gift options within Tuscaloosa and Northport, based on availability and order cutoff times. For urgent requests, we recommend calling our studio directly so we can confirm options and timing. While fully custom florals, gift boxes, and large events typically require advance notice, we do our best to accommodate last-minute needs whenever possible. For sorority events, birthdays, or spontaneous surprises, our team often has ready-to-go options available. However, early ordering always provides the best selection and design flexibility. If same-day service isn’t available, we’ll gladly recommend the next best solution to ensure your gift or event is still beautifully executed. Our priority is maintaining quality and presentation—even on short timelines.
