Re: WHATS A GOOD BUDGET FOR FLOWERS?

I think it depends on the florist, what kind of flowers you want and the size/style of your bo-k's. First thing you definately need is a very good idea of what kind of flowers you want, the colors that you want, traditional plastic flower holders or the new modern stem look. I would definately go around and look first. I didnt have a flower budget, I knew I didnt want to go above a certain number, but when i got my quote I was REALLY impressed! Good Luck

Re: WHATS A GOOD BUDGET FOR FLOWERS?

After being on this site for a while i can tell you that your flower budget will depend on WHERE you are getting married. For the EXACT same thing that other brides are getting quoted $4,000 or under...i am getting quotes for $8,000. That is why i haven't booked a florist yet
