Rental Information & Policies
Flora Bella specializes in luxe arches, accessory flowers, and floral walls. We will be adding a significant amount of inventory over the next few months, so please keep checking back or follow us on social media.
To rent one of our products, visit the shop page from the main menu. Browse to the product you wish to rent, select a date or range of dates for the rental, and add it to your cart. You can then continue browsing, add more rentals to your cart, or check out.
We want you to have the easiest experience possible shopping with us. You do not have to fill out a quote form or share your contact information simply to investigate pricing. We are entirely transparent with all our pricing and fees. The price for renting any of our pieces includes set up in a single place and free delivery and pick-up within 30 miles by 9 p.m. (unless we are able to arrange next-day pick up with your venue). There are no hidden fees. You will be charged Tennessee state sales tax as required by law. There are additional fees for customization, delivery outside of 30 miles, moving an arch to a second location, or late-night pick-up, as outlined in our Terms & Conditions
We offer free delivery within 30 driving miles of our warehouse at 711 Signal Mountain Road, Chattanooga, TN. Delivery beyond 30 miles may still be possible but will need to be pre-approved. We want to do all we can to accommodate your requests, so please reach out. Approval will be determined by which rental is being requested, other rentals that are scheduled for your event date, and what time the rental is needed by us the following day. There will be an additional fee for delivery outside 30 miles, and this will be determined by the distance.
What does it mean that price is for one setup/one location only? Can the arch be moved from the ceremony to the reception?
Included in the rental price is the initial setup of your items in one location. If the rental items are to be moved from that location (e.g., from a ceremony site to the reception site), there will be an additional fee. The fee will vary based on the size of the products rented, whether the rentals must be disassembled to fit through any doorways and reassembled in their new location, the distance they must go (to a different room versus a different venue), and whether our delivery trailer is needed to transport them to their new location. Typical charges range from $200-$500 as an industry standard. Please note that rental items may only be moved by our team.
Whenever possible, we will work with your venue for next-day pickups to avoid fees. This will depend on several factors: whether the venue will allow a next-day pickup, whether the arch is needed the next morning, and if we can fit it into our schedule the next day. Any arches that would be left outside are not eligible for next-day pickup.

Most of our arches range from 7-8 feet in height. The width depends on the individual arch you choose. Approximate dimensions are listed with each arch.
Absolutely! If you change your mind and want a different arch (or floral wall, accessory flowers, etc.) for your event, we will make it happen if possible! We will always go the extra mile to make all our clients happy. Depending on availability, additions can be made up to 7 days prior to your event date.
If your chosen piece is available for your new date, we will happily transfer your booking to the new date at no additional charge. If your chosen rental is not available, we will apply your original payment to your new selection. We require 90 days written notice for cancellations. In the case of cancellation, Flora Bella reserves the right to retain 50% of your original payment as a non-refundable fee. Monies paid beyond your original payment will be refunded, with any costs incurred by Flora Bella deducted from your refund. These costs may include, but are not limited to, any florals ordered for customization, time spent in consultation and design of your pieces, and fees associated with the refund.
No rental item can be in the rain as rain will ruin the permanent botanicals. A tarp will be provided if there is a chance of light sprinkles. Flora Bella will not set up items outdoors in the rain, and we reserve the right to pick up arches early if inclement weather is predicted. Please know that some items may be moved by the venue coordinator with prior written approval.
It is first important to understand that most florists do not want to make arches as they are time-consuming to make on your event day. Florists also do not want other flowers at your event that do not meet their standards. Most florists who have seen the quality of our work will gladly recommend us. We want a great working relationship with all the florists in the area, and if you want us to reach out to your florist, please let us know. If your florist insists that you cannot work with other florists, you can still rent our arches as we technically fall under wedding décor rental and do not have to be approved by your florist.
Customization & Quality
Flowers that are luxe, high end, and natural-looking cannot be purchased in retail stores or even most flower wholesale stores. We are so confident in the beauty of our florals that we invite you to compare our products to others in your area. So that you can make an informed decision about what you would like to see on your special day, we will give you the tools you need to recognize what puts Flora Bella arches in their own category.
- How does the flower head compare in size and petal count to its natural counterpart?
Retail and lower-end artificial flowers often feature smaller flower heads or fewer petals than their natural counterparts. Our flowers match the size and petal count of real flowers, and they are hand-curled and hand-painted for an authentic look. - Do the flowers move like natural flowers?
Long, linear flowers in nature bend and move with the wind. Artificial flowers that are stiff or too straight look unnatural. Our flowers have natural droop and movement, mimicking nature even when a breeze passes. - What does the center of the flower look like?
Cheap artificial flowers often have unnatural centers. Look for florals with realistic, natural-looking centers and colors. - Do the flowers make noise when touched or in the wind?
Guests will inevitably touch your flowers. Silk flowers tend to be loud and crunchy. Our natural touch flowers feel and sound real.
Absolutely! While we are not able to remove flowers from our arches or accessory flowers, we are able to add in natural flowers or permanent botanicals that will include your colors or other flower choices. Prices will be determined by the number and cost of the flowers added.
Our arches are large and are stored in a warehouse. For insurance reasons, we cannot have customers in our warehouse. We have very detailed pictures on our social media and website so that you have an accurate idea of what each of our pieces looks like. We also occasionally host open houses and visit bridal shows where you can see our work in person. If you have access to Apple’s Facetime, we are available to video chat with you to show you a sample of our flowers. If you are still concerned about booking without having seen an arch and you would like to see a sample of the flowers, a team member may be able to meet you in person at a coffee shop in the Chattanooga area. This is not guaranteed and will only be an option if someone is available to meet you. We want to you to feel 100% comfortable, so we will make our best effort to accommodate your requests.
Vendors & Special Programs
We are a company that believes in giving back! Customers have the option to be entered in a monthly drawing in which one customer is selected to have 10% of his or her total rental cost donated to a charity. At the time of booking, customers can choose which charity they would like to support from a list of our favorite charities. If you choose to participate, you will be entered into the drawing the month following your event, and a donation will be made in your honor by Flora Bella at no additional cost to you.
