Centerpiece quote too high?

I received a quote from a florist for an 8' bubble bowl with two dozen roses for $125 each. Is that a good quote or too high?

That sounds too high to me.

Which florist? If by chance you want another recommendation for a great florist with great prices, contact Designs by Rose - we are using them and I've only seen great reviews of their work from other LIW ladies.

hhmmm- Sounds a bit high. I was quoted $75 for roses and hydrangea in a silver pedastal bowl.

I contacted Designs By Rose. She is super nice but booked for my wedding. The quote I got is not a LIW vendor- it's a local florist in Queens.

Try Flower Michelle (another LIW vendor)

That sounds high to me too. I had gone to a few local florists for quotes and they were all much higher than a 'wedding' florist. They don't do the volume that a wedding florist does.

Check out Verbena Designs or Pedestals.

Is that a quote for a high CP or low?? If its a low CP then that sounds too high

I think that's a lot of money for a low centerpiece

Larger florists tend to charge less because they work in larger volumes and get their flowers cheaper than small local florists.
