Our Refreshing Team will be onsite through out the 10 day show to keep up with the daily touch ups of your installation.
On set up day, please provide FDV with 1-2 buckets of extra flowers that our refresher can use to replenish the installation as needed.
Unless otherwise approved by FDV, we ask that you arrange for one large refresh half way through the show to ensure that it is looking the way you have intended!
If you are planning to do the consistent refreshing of your own installation, please provide us with your projected refreshing schedule so our team onsite can expect your arrival and manage your installation accordingly.
You may refresh your flowers and materials during regular center hours or after hours. If you plan to arrive after hours, please notify us in advance. This will allow us to inform security and provide you with the best entry instructions for that time.
During operating hours, parking is available in any of the garages. Please find Katelin (519.777.8690) for set-up and strike for parking validation.
Each florist must ensure their work area is tidy and protect the floors, especially if they are working inside a venue. If you are inside a building, please note:
- Drop sheets/tarp MUST be on the floors
- No floral droppings/debris
- No moisture
- No dyed or sprayed products on floors
Please bring your own supplies - dolly/trolley/wagon, ladder, step stool, buckets, tools, trash bags/bins etc. - YOU MUST BE SELF SUFFICIENT as we do not provide any tools or wagons. Be incredibly mindful of guests and nearyby stores when refreshing within the open hours - keep your space contained and clean.
The installations will be taken down after the show concludes. Strike will be Sunday, March 8 (evening) OR Monday, March 9 (morning), depending on the location of your installation. (NO EARLIER) We are contractually obligated to have the installs up through Sunday - this is also for public safety as the public will try to take your florals home with them if they see you striking before the designated time.
Please ensure your attire remains professional, as you are representing both yourself and FDV. Please wear black clothing, or, if available, branded t-shirts or aprons for a polished look.
