What is the average price for centerpieces? I keep looking at ones that cost $200-$250...and with 20 tables...that's $5000 just for the tables. i expected flowers to be $5000 total. Am I picking expensive centerpieces...or is this the going price?

Re: Centerpieces
Im having this problem also. I had hoped to spend $100 each but it seems they are all 2x that!
Edit* I like cala lilies and those willow branches with hanging candels. This is expensive to start. Roses and dasies really bring the cost of flowers down.

Re: Centerpieces
Girls - my best advice to you is to call Flower Barn in Seaford. I booked them last week and I have high CP's. Trust me!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Centerpieces
I definitely second Flower Barn!! I met with Mike. He gave us a really good price on High CP's but we went w/ the lows anyway because we are trying to save a bit... out of all the places i visited this was the one that was the most professional, not too 'salesy', affordable, and actually showed me the flowers he was going to use.

Re: Centerpieces
your quotes of $200-$250 sound very high to me. my friend who just got married in july paid $3,500 for all her centerpieces & bridal party flowers. she had 30 tables (tall centerpieces), 9 bridesmaids, & 11 groomsmen. this also included her bo-k.
here is a pic of the bo-k i had. & i think they looked beautiful.

Re: Centerpieces
Yea thats a bit high....i guess depending on what you want. My high cp are costing me about $150 ( i think) and thats with roses, orchids and hydrandas. I am doing half high/half low to save a bit. For absolutely everything, soup to nuts, I am paying $3200. And I did not skimp out of anything, I got exactly what I dreamed of. O and pretty much all teh florists were in that range. I have about 14 tables.

Re: Centerpieces
It all depends on what you want and who you book with. I'm EXTREMELY happy with Flower Barn. They've been so accomodating it is hard to believe.

Re: Centerpieces
my sister in law got a quote of $150 for her centerpieces and they were high and lovely :)
BUT. my other friend is having centerpieces that are $450!!!! she's got some kind of imported japanese flower or something comming in lol i dunno.
i think $250 is a bit high. but it all depends on the type of flower you are using. maybe shop around a bit. if you're still getting the same price consider swithcing to a less expensive flower selection.

Re: Centerpieces
I agree that price sounds really high, is that price including the price of the tall cp holder-one florist gave me a quote which was charging me the price for the actual holders, they weren't going to be renting them to me
I am doing half high/half low, all bo-k's and some extras thrown in and i'm not paying anything near that

Re: Centerpieces
most high cp's are $125-200 each. You can get it for under $200, they are probably charging you more than what other florists would.
One time i had one florist quote me $300 for the CP i wanted, but i asked another one and they told me $175 for the exact same thing

Re: Centerpieces
Flower Barn all the way.
I'm working on a beer budget when it comes to flowers but I got champagne quality at Flower Barn. I feel so good knowing that I will have great looking flowers on my wedding day and it didn't break the bank.
