Pro Tips for Sizing
- Measure your venue's ceiling height. Most venues have 9–12 ft ceilings. An 8 ft wall leaves room for lighting rigs and doesn't feel cramped.
- Think about photo composition. For full-body shots with a couple in front, 8×8 gives photographers room to frame. For headshots only, 4×8 is sufficient.
- Each panel fits in a storage bag. We sell durable zip-up bags sized for a single 4×8 panel — fold or roll the wall, slip it in, and carry it like a duffel. Select products even come with a free storage bag. Check your product page for details, or buy one separately.
- Consider the transport. Each panel is foldable — you can roll it up or fold it flat to fit your vehicle. Even an 8×8 (two panels) can fit in a standard sedan trunk when folded. No oversized truck or van required.
- Unsure? Go with 8×8. It's the most versatile size — works for 80% of events. You can always add a second wall later for larger spaces.

This is the #1 question we get — and the answer is what makes our customers come back for their second and third events.
Material Breakdown
| Component | Material | Why We Chose It |
|---|---|---|
| Base Backing | High-density fabric cloth | Rolls up or folds flat for storage, durable enough for dozens of setups, lightweight for transport |
| Main Flowers | Premium silk & latex-bonded fabric | Soft petal texture, natural color gradients, holds shape after folding |
| Foliage & Greenery | High-density fabric + coated wire stems | Realistic veining and matte finish — not shiny plastic. Stems are bendable for touch-ups |
| Attachment | Hand-tied & secured to backing | Each bloom is individually secured by hand. Won't fall off during transport or setup |
How Realistic Do They Look?
From 6+ Feet Away
Indistinguishable from real flowers. The dense packing and color blending create the same visual impact as a fresh floral wall — this is what guests and photographers see.
From 2–3 Feet Away
Still highly convincing. The silk petals have subtle texture and the foliage lacks the plastic shine of cheaper alternatives. Most guests need to touch them to realize they're artificial.
Up Close & Touch
Soft, fabric-like feel — not crunchy plastic. The petals have a realistic give when touched. We specifically avoid the cheap shiny look common in budget faux flowers.
Artificial vs Real: Why Our Customers Choose Faux
| Real Flower Wall | ValarFlowers Faux Wall | |
|---|---|---|
| Lifespan | 1 day — wilts after the event | Years — reuse for dozens of events |
| Setup | Florist on-site assembly (hours) | Unroll & zip — 15 min |
| Cost (per use) | $800–$2,500+ each time | One-time purchase — pays for itself after 1–2 events |
| Weather | Heat/cold damage, wind blows petals | Wind-resistant, all-weather safe |
| Color Options | Limited by season & availability | Available year-round, consistent color |
No — and this is actually a bonus. Real flowers can trigger allergies or overwhelm small indoor spaces with strong scents. Our silk flowers are hypoallergenic and fragrance-free, which venues and guests with sensitivities appreciate.

Shop Flower Walls →4. How Long Does Shipping Take? Where Do You Ship From?
Production and Transit Are Separate
Standard flower wall production takes 5–7 calendar days. This is production time, not shipping transit time. Custom requirements and dispatch arrangements should be confirmed with our team before ordering.
U.S. Warehouse Stock
Eligible U.S. warehouse products are dispatched within 1–3 days. Estimated transit after dispatch is approximately 3–5 days within the contiguous United States. These are separate estimates, not a guaranteed event-date delivery promise.
Non-Mainland U.S. Destinations
U.S. warehouse shipping is not available to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or other non-mainland U.S. destinations. International air freight may be possible; contact us to confirm the product, destination, availability, and quote before ordering.
International Orders and Other Products
Production or preparation time is separate from transit after dispatch. The applicable route, service, and shipping charge depend on the product, configuration, destination, and order value. Confirm the estimate for your exact order with our team and check the available shipping options at checkout. Customs, holidays, weather, and carrier delays may affect delivery.
5. How Much Does Shipping Cost?
Shipping charges depend on the product, size, stand or accessory configuration, delivery address, order value, and service selected. Do not assume that every product or destination qualifies for free shipping or an air-freight upgrade. Review the available services and charges at checkout, and contact our team before ordering if your configuration, destination, or event deadline needs a specific quote.
Air Shipping Fee: USD $180 per 8ft × 8ft flower wall (approximately 2.4m × 2.4m), including transportation of the flower wall and its selected stand. This is the shipping charge, not the purchase price of the flower wall or stand. Confirm air service availability for your destination before ordering. Other sizes require a separate shipping quote.
6. What Is Your Return Policy? What If an Item Arrives Damaged, Incorrect, or Incomplete?
Standard Products, Including Sale-Priced Products
Request a return within 14 days of receiving your order. The product must be unused and in its original packaging. Sale-priced standard products are eligible under the same conditions. Used products are not eligible for return.
Contact sky@valarflowers.com before returning an item. Once your return is approved, ship it back within 7 days of approval, following our team's instructions. For an approved customer-initiated return, the buyer pays only the return shipping cost, not the original outbound shipping cost.
