About Dry Bookei

Dry Bookei is a Melbourne floral studio founded by Leap, which began as a creative hobby during the quiet days of COVID and grew into a business creating wedding and event florals. Leap works with both faux and fresh flowers, aiming for designs that feel real, timeless and full of texture, in a style the studio describes as sculptural, modern and intentional.

Services range from full-scale onsite wedding styling in Melbourne to statement pieces made to order and shipped across Australia and New Zealand, as well as flowers for elopements and micro weddings. Decorative faux florals are also available for hire, and the studio offers flower preservation, home and event styling and brand activations. Couples in the testimonials often mention that guests could not tell their bouquets were faux, and that the flowers now sit at home as a keepsake.

Every project starts with a quote form for a wedding, elopement or event, followed by a customised quote that is valid for seven days, then a detailed proposal and invoice. Dates are secured with upfront payment, a deposit or a payment plan. For faux designs, couples receive a design preview with the chance to request adjustments, and can change their colour theme up to five months before dispatch.
