About
BloomsBy is a purpose-built floral wedding and event management system designed to help independent floral designers simplify and grow their business. Recognizing that florists spend enormous time on administrative tasks, BloomsBy consolidates everything into one intuitive platform. The software lets designers create stunning, photo-rich wedding proposals in minutes rather than hours, complete with inspiration pages that visually sell clients on their vision. Built-in contract management means florists no longer need to draft legal documents from scratch — clients can sign digitally with ease. A standout feature is the Profit Calculator, which helps designers accurately apply labor costs and markups so they never underprice an event. The Shopping List tool calculates exactly how many flowers, greens, and supplies are needed per event, eliminating costly over- or under-purchasing. Payment scheduling is fully automated — invoices are emailed to clients on a set schedule, past-due reminders are sent with one click, and designers receive notifications when payments come in. BloomsBy's iPad app was an industry first, enabling florists to manage proposals and consultations on the go — at bridal shows, client meetings, or on-site at events. At $39.99/month, BloomsBy is aimed at solo and small-team floral designers who want a professional, all-in-one solution without the complexity of generic business tools. It handles the business side so florists can focus on their creative work.
