How Flower Bench works
Flower Bench connects floral design businesses with freelance florists. No recruiters, no fees per booking, no middlemen. Just profiles, endorsements, and direct messages.
💐 For floral businesses
Find trusted freelance help for your next wedding or event, exactly when and where you need it.
Search near your venue
Type any address, zip code, or venue name and see freelance florists nearby, sorted by distance, hourly rate, experience, or endorsements. Filter by the exact skills you need: installations, rigging, personals, tablesetting, foam-free mechanics, and more.
Check real availability
Every florist keeps an availability calendar. Filter your search to a specific date and only see people who are actually free that day.
See rates up front
Hourly rates, day-rate minimums, and travel reimbursement expectations are visible to business accounts before you ever reach out. No awkward rate conversations mid-planning.
Post jobs to the board
Have a big install weekend coming up? Post the dates, location, estimated hours, and whether design experience is required. Freelancers browse the board and message you directly.
Message and book
Contact florists through Flower Bench messaging. They get an email notification and can reply from anywhere. Book directly; we never sit in the middle of your payment or contract.
Endorse the great ones
Worked with someone great? One click endorses them, which helps other businesses hire with confidence and helps reliable freelancers stand out.
🌸 For freelance florists
Get found by the businesses hiring in your area, on your terms and at your rates.
Build your profile once
Your skills, rates, travel radius, portfolio, photo gallery, and experience, all in one place. It's your resume, but it works while you sleep.
Mark when you're unavailable
Click the days you can't work on a simple calendar. Everything else counts as available, so businesses searching your open dates find you.
Browse the job board
Businesses post gigs with dates, locations, and estimated hours. See something that fits? Message them directly from the posting.
Vet businesses before you commit
Verified badges mean our team confirmed the business is legitimate. Endorsements from other florists tell you who is genuinely good to work for, and profiles show how each business pays (ACH, Venmo, Zelle, and so on).
Endorse businesses back
Endorsements go both ways here. Vouch for the businesses that pay on time and run an organized flower room.
🤝 Built on trust
Simple pricing
Flower Bench is completely free during our alpha period. Florists stay free forever; business pricing comes later, with plenty of notice before anything changes.
One more thing: we're in beta. If something's broken or missing, use the feedback button in the footer and tell us. We read everything.
