Create a Wedding Experience Your Guests Will Remember

Planning a wedding is about bringing together the people you love and creating memories that last long after the celebration is over.

At YYC Plants & Delivery, we believe your wedding, bridal shower, bachelorette party or engagement celebration can be more than beautiful. It can be interactive, personal and memorable.

We bring plants, florals and hands-on experiences directly to your event throughout Calgary and surrounding communities.

Whether you are planning an intimate engagement celebration in the Beltline, a bridal shower in Kensington, a bachelorette party in Inglewood, a wedding reception in the Northwest, or a larger celebration outside Calgary, our botanical experiences are designed to bring people together.

Our wedding services include plant favors, floral favors, hosted Planting Bars, DIY Potting Bars, hosted Floral Bars, DIY Floral Bars and private plant workshops.

No previous plant or floral experience is required. We provide the materials and guidance needed to make the experience enjoyable for everyone.

Calgary Wedding Plant Favors

Looking for a wedding favor that is different from the usual personalized gift?

Give your guests something that grows.

Our plant favors are a unique Calgary wedding favor option that can add a natural element to your reception, ceremony, bridal shower or engagement celebration.

Choose from available plant varieties such as tropical plants, cacti, succulents and air plants. We can work with you to create a favor selection that fits your event, personal style and budget.

Plant favors can be used as:

• Wedding guest favors

• Reception table favors

• Place-setting accents

• Name-card holders

• Thank-you gifts

• Bridal shower favors

• Bachelorette party favors

• Engagement party favors

• Welcome gifts

• Wedding décor

Customization is available so your favors can complement the overall feel of your celebration.

We coordinate delivery or pickup throughout Calgary and surrounding areas, with options depending on your event location and requirements.

The Calgary Wedding Planting Bar

Want your wedding favors to become part of the celebration?

Our Planting Bar turns a traditional wedding favor into an interactive guest experience.

Instead of simply placing a plant at every table setting, your guests can participate in creating their own botanical keepsake.

With our hosted Planting Bar, our team handles the planning, setup, guest experience and cleanup so you can enjoy your wedding instead of managing another activity.

Guests can select their plant and create their own personalized arrangement while connecting with other guests and enjoying the celebration.

45-minute service period depending on group size. Half-day and full-day options are also available.

This can be an excellent addition to a:

• Calgary wedding reception

• Bridal shower

• Bachelorette party

• Engagement party

• Rehearsal dinner

• Welcome party

• Bridesmaid gathering

• Post-wedding celebration

DIY Wedding Potting Bar

If you would rather manage the experience yourself, our DIY Potting Bar gives you the supplies needed to create your own wedding plant station.

We provide the pots, plants, soil, rocks, bags and setup instructions.

This is ideal for couples who want to create a relaxed activity for their guests without requiring a dedicated host throughout the event.

It can be incorporated into a wedding reception, bridal shower, engagement party or bachelorette celebration.

Calgary Wedding Floral Favors

Plants are not for everyone, which is why we also offer floral options.

Our Floral Favors can feature fresh or dried florals and can be designed as small arrangements for place settings, name cards, favor tables and other wedding details.

Fresh floral favors can bring colour and seasonal character to your wedding, while dried floral favors offer a longer-lasting keepsake for your guests.

We work with you to create arrangements that complement your event and personal style.

The Calgary Wedding Floral Bar

For couples who want to turn flowers into an activity, our Floral Bar offers an interactive experience where guests can create their own floral arrangements.

Our Floral Bar Specialist hosts the experience and helps guests create their own arrangements to take home.

We can also help create an eye-catching Floral Bar station that becomes part of your event.

Half-day and full-day options are available.

This experience can be especially well suited to bridal showers and bachelorette parties, but it can also be incorporated into wedding receptions, engagement celebrations and other wedding-related gatherings.

DIY Wedding Floral Bar

Want to create your own floral experience?

Our DIY Floral Bar provides the materials you need to build your own floral station.

Depending on your selected package, supplies can include floral stems, vases, clippers, gift bags and arrangement tips.

It is an excellent option for smaller, intimate gatherings where friends and family can create arrangements together.

Calgary Bridal Shower Workshops

A bridal shower should give everyone an opportunity to celebrate the bride-to-be.

A private botanical workshop creates a social activity that allows guests to talk, laugh and create something they can take home.

Depending on your group, we can help you select a plant or floral experience that fits your celebration.

Possible options include plant arrangements, terrariums, moss art, seasonal workshops and other private botanical experiences.

Our private workshops are designed to be accessible to beginners, so guests do not need previous plant experience.

Calgary Bachelorette Party Workshops

Planning a Calgary bachelorette party and looking for something different?

Move beyond the traditional itinerary with a hands-on botanical experience.

A private plant or floral workshop can be scheduled as part of your bachelorette party before dinner, drinks or another activity.

Guests can create something together, enjoy a relaxed environment and leave with a personal keepsake from the celebration.

Our workshop team can travel to your selected Calgary-area location, subject to availability and applicable travel fees.

Engagement Party Plant & Floral Experiences

Your wedding journey starts when you say yes.

An engagement celebration is the perfect opportunity to introduce plants and florals into your event.

Consider plant favors for guests, floral favors for tables, a Floral Bar or Planting Bar, or a private workshop for your closest friends and family.

An engagement party can also be the perfect opportunity to test out the kind of experience you may want to incorporate into your wedding.

Why Choose a Botanical Wedding Experience?

Your wedding does not need another activity simply for the sake of having an activity.

The best experiences give people an opportunity to connect.

That is what makes our plant and floral experiences different.

Guests are not simply watching someone create something. They can participate, talk with one another, learn something new and leave with something they created themselves.

For couples who want a wedding that feels personal, relaxed and memorable, plants and florals can become more than décor.

They can become part of the experience.
