Can You Write Off Donating Wedding Flowers?
Short answer: Yes for the fair market value of the flowers you give to a hospital or charity, which is usually modest.
Itemizers deduct gifts to 501(c)(3) charities (from 2026, only the part above 0.5% of AGI); non-itemizers can deduct up to $1,000 ($2,000 joint) of cash gifts starting in 2026.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
