Who did you use for your flowers? I still havent booked a florist because Im afraid of how much its going to be

However I dont need CP's so thats probably going to drop the price dramatically (at least Im hoping so)

I have been quoted about $150 bride; $50-75 each BM; $20 mom's corsage/bo-k; $5-$9 boots.

Not having them do CPs will drastically drop the price. I was quoted between $50-75 for low and $100 - 175 for high.

I heard that larger cos can actually get you a better deal than smaller shops b/c they buy more volume.

Try Flower Michelle.

Good Luck!

I booked FM and I am on a budget when it comes to flowers.

Try Ken and Eva's Flower Cottage in Brentwood. There Prices are amazing and they do a beautiful Job. I've seen their work in a previous wedding. There prices are unbelievable.

Just booked on appointment with them for this Friday! Ill let you know what happens.

Thank you all for the suggestions. Id like to have a florist book by the end of next week!

I booked Burtons. They gave me an amazing price for the amount of flowers I needed and their customer service has been AWESOME!!! I've exchanged many frantic e-mails with Mike who is ALWAYS great to me.

I booked with FM and with centerpieces (low) i got it around 1k. I didn't do any decor for the chapel at CLM that is really pointless in my mind so i just did BP flowers and centerpieces, extra petals for tables and cake flowers.
