/////How to Order Dried Floral Work from Westerwisp
...Choosing Westerwisp, Please Read...
Westerwisp florals are all one of a kind creations made with botanicals grown and sourced from the Pacific NW. No dyes, bleach or anything artificial are used, and florals are not coming from a factory warehouse. You will receive dried floral arrangements designed with real artisan love and care, straight from the garden or foraged from nature. Grown from seed, cut and hung to dry. Slight, natural imperfections are to be expected. Westerwisp florals are Real and seasonal. Listings presented in the shop are examples of past work. Colors and styles can be followed, but you will be receiving completely one of a kind, seasonal work matching your wedding aesthetic. Westerwisp florals are tailored to you and your story. These are lasting creations which will look more beautiful over time as they develope their dried patina.
...How to Order...
Order pieces individually in the Westerwisp shop or message designer Cat for custom quote/package set inquiries. You may order from any listing and send me customization details through Etsy messages. For some listings, you may edit your quantity via the shopping cart or message Cat Brimhall for a custom listing. Monthly Financing is available on Etsy through Klarna at checkout.
Please order at least 6 weeks before your event or contact designer Cat Brimhall if you need to double check date availability. Most times, I can create dried floral work faster than this, but it is helpful to check first. I am ready to fit some quick elopements into my schedule, so message me if you need flowers FAST and I bet I can do it! (o:
Shipping is through UPS or FedEx and occasionally USPS Priority.

5 out of 5 starsI had Cat create all of the aisle pieces, bouquets, boutonnières, center pieces, and a hair piece for our wedding. I gave her a general “vibe” that we were going for and sent photos of the venue space. She nailed everything. It was all perfect, exactly as I imagined. She’s so great at communicating throughout the process and everything was shipped directly to the wedding coordinator so we didn’t have to worry about getting it there. 1000/10 would recommend Cat all day every day. We’ll be ordering some pieces for the house decor as well!

5 out of 5 starsI custom ordered my bouquet for an October wedding and I am so pleased I worked with Cat. The bouquet was BEAUTIFUL. I got so many compliments on it! And Cat was so communicative and kept me updated on the process the whole way. I could tell she put a lot of thoughts and care into designing my perfect bouquet. I'd definitely order again!

5 out of 5 starsCat did an absolutely amazing job listening to me, working with me, and ultimately creating flowers that absolutely knocked me over with how perfect they were. They matched my vision wonderfully, and arrived in perfect condition- her packaging is top notch. I could not have asked for a more thoughtful or amazing process! The flowers got so many compliments, and I am so overjoyed with how well they worked with my wedding colors and style.

5 out of 5 starsThe bouquet was lovely! I will admit I added a few of my own dried roses from a bouquet that my husband gave me a year ago as a special touch. Everything was perfect as it though.

Hiring Westerwisp
/////How to Order
Order pieces directly through the shop or contact Cat for a quote. You may order through any listing and at checkout you will be able to describe your wedding palette and theme, as well as list your wedding date. Place your order at least 6 weeks before your event. You can adjust quantity in the shopping cart. Fast elopements welcome- contact Cat.
/////One of a Kind Work
All pieces in the Westerwisp shop are sample work as all designs are seasonally one of a kind. Designs and color palettes can be followed, but you will be receiving artisan florals tailored for your event. Florals are real, grown in the garden and locally sourced. Westerwisp does not use factory florals, dyes, etc. Photos are sent before shipping.
Peak Wedding Season Production Times and QUICK ELOPEMENTS
Westerwisp's peak wedding season is from April through October. All weddings receive an equal amount of detail and care, thus production times may run upwards to 8-10 weeks like a fresh florist. Please contact designer Cat Brimhall in regards to your event date if you have any concerns. Westerwisp is always on time.
///QUICK ELOPEMENTS
Are you planning a fast elopement? Most times, Westerwisp can add you into the schedule. Message Cat and let's see what I can do!
Advantages of Dried Florals
Dried florals are unique and alternative, yet classic and elegant at the same time. They will not bruise or wilt, do not require water, they are light weight and will survive shipping, travel, cold and hot weather. They have matte, velvet color palettes and photograph beautifully, as well as they look gorgeous on their own or mixed with fresh floral arrangements. Pieces are earthy and fragrant and often include botanicals such as roses, peonies, lavender, sage, eucalyptus and moss. Dried florals will last for a long time after your wedding as home décor or mementos displayed in a shadow box or cabinet. Westerwisp does not use artificially dyed, bleached or factory flowers, but real florals grown from seed or locally sourced and hung to dry.
Shipping and Local Delivery
Shipping via UPS or FedEx and occasionally USPS Priority.
Pieces are very safely wrapped and arrive in large boxes.
Westerwisp only ships within the USA (with the exception of Hawaii) due to the use of dried plants.
Custom budget inquiries welcome for LOCAL (PNW Washington) non-shipped, pickup orders.
Elopement friendly. Pieces can be shipped to vacation destinations as well within the USA.
Allergy and Safety Note
Westerwisp products are made with dried flowers, branches and plants. If you have allergies or sensitivities to plants, Westerwisp products may not be right for you. Customer is 100% Responsible for deciding to handle, wear and house Westerwisp florals. Florals may have sticks and other natural, pokey edges. Boutonniere pins are sharp. Customer is responsible for handling safely. Floral crowns are to be worn over hair, not touching skin. Keep Westerwisp florals away from small children, pets and fire. Certain plants might be toxic if ingested (such as eucalyptus). Adult supervision is required for tie-back flower girl crowns as they have long ribbons at back. Customer is responsible for all decisions regarding Covid-19 and variants.
Can you make what is exactly pictured in the listing?
Westerwisp work is custom and completely one of a kind due to the use of natural plant products, seasonal availability and what I can find, forage and grow each year. I would love to discuss your floral ideas such as replicating design elements from the sample of work in my shop, adding favorite florals, custom colors, etc. I send approval photos before shipping to make sure colors and designs match up with expectations. Your wedding day is very important and as a floral designer it is my goal to create something you will cherish.
Dried Floral Care Before the Wedding
Larger pieces such as bouquets and centerpieces should be taken out of their packaging once they arrive to help maintain their shape for the wedding. Smaller pieces such as boutonnieres, combs, crowns and corsages can remain wrapped up in the tissue paper they arrive in. Bouquets can be placed in vases or stored standing up in the box they arrived in (open the box and shape the bouquet) with very gentle paper wrapping around them as pressure-less support. Keep florals in a dark, dry, room temperature location away from high heat, freezing temperatures and bright direct sunlight (which can bleach florals over time). Steam or a few gentle drops of water can be used to re-shape and fluff florals. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Due to the incredibly custom nature of Westerwisp work, refunds are generally not accepted. Photos will be sent before pieces are shipped out for approval. After work has begun, in the event that you must cancel your order, up to 50% can be refunded from your total. First Deposits are not refundable due to cancellations. This accounts for stocking fees, labor, time and material costs. Please contact Westerwisp if you have any questions. No refunds for Covid-19 related cancellations, however, dried floral work can be postponed to a later date, and you will have your spot reserved on my schedule. If for any reason Westerwisp must cancel, a full refund will be sent immediately.
