“Violet and her staff are so patient! They took their time and helped our daughter numerous times try on numerous dresses. We shopped all around for grad dresses and hands down, found Delicate Petals to be the very best.”

With the ability to create stunning weddings, unforgettable family affairs and effortless corporate events, it’s easy to see why so many are raving about Delicate Petals. The company that specializes in event planning, rentals and dresses has quickly become an industry leader by helping to turn dream events into reality. The work is a source of passion for Violet Herdin who realized she had a penchant for creativity and event planning after coordinating her own fairytale wedding. Her colleague Amanda McLeod contributes attention to detail and a keen understanding of event logistics. The result of their combined efforts is always magical.

“We’re really passionate about it. It never feels like work,” said McLeod. “It’s such a fun and happy time for people and we get to be creative every day. So, we’re always getting to try new things and experiences and just love seeing people happy when they’re trying on dresses and we get to be a part of that special day.”

Delicate Petals is there every step of the way. The process for any event begins with a free one-hour consultation to help identify the client’s unique needs. In-store displays show exactly what the company has to offer from décor and linen to arches, tents and lighting.

“We’ve been in business for a while and know what Prince Albert and the surrounding area have to offer in terms of vendors and caterers,” said Herdin. “We’ve worked in every venue and seen everything, so when you come to us for guidance, it just takes the stress off the planning.”

In addition to the planning and decorating services, Delicate Petals also offers other ways to make your event unique by creating custom bouquets and centre pieces and they’ll make sure it runs as smoothly as possible with their ‘day of coordination’ services.

“I’m basically your personal assistant for the day. Anything you need me to take care of, I’m there,” said McLeod. “I can help build a timeline, prepare the venue and handle any on-site emergencies that may come up so you don’t have to worry about it. Just enjoy your day and I do the rest.”

Having a dress boutique in store truly makes Delicate Petals a one-stop shop. They carry women’s formal wear, accessories including veils and jewelry and popular designers like Maggie Sottero, Morilee and Essence of Australia in options to accommodate every budget.

“We try to keep it in a range that is affordable so everyone has access to a beautiful dress. Our wedding dresses start at $250 and max out usually around $2,000. We also carry mother of the bride and grad dresses too between $150 and $900 price points,” said Herdin.

Whether it’s a wedding or a business award gala, Delicate Petals always prioritizes a great customer experience.

“We’re very low pressure. We help you plan and try on dresses and then let the customer decide what they want,” said McLeod. “We want it to be a fun, creative and empowering experience.”
