Dumb flower question

Sorry, I'm not a flower person so I dont know....

What flowers are expensive? Like I know orchids and lillies are a lot, but what about roses? Hydrangeas? I'm clueless!

Roses are generally one of the cheapest ones because they're so common. And carnations are very cheap.

Peonies are VERY expensive.

I've found that a lot of it depends upon the season that you need the flowers for. We went to the florists and said here's our budget, here's our ideas, what can you do? We have a lot of hydrangeas in our cps and bouquets but that's also because I like them

this might help

Very nice Barb. Is that from Gina? I'm going to see her tomorrow. I'm excited. She seemed really nice in emails. I like that she gives you samples. Burton's doesn't do that.

Re: Dumb flower question

orchids aren't actually bad in price at all. Peonies most def. are...i got quoted $6 a flower, Stephonotis is (every place tries to push this flower to be in the bride's bo-k), and out of season flowers. there is one type of rose that is also, i think it's a Queen Anne and also tea roses were a little pricey.

hydrangea, regular roses, and daisies (gerbera), are cheap :)

Very excited to meet her. SHe seems like a sweetheart and like she will work you and wants to make you happy. Will she have a sample the first time meeting? I sent her pictures of things I liked. Or did you just talk about what you wanted the first meeting?

Re: Dumb flower question

when i first contacted her it was for my bridal shower.

i contacted her at 10 am

by 10:45 i was at her house and she had a sample waiting for me... it was what i wanted... but i wanted double the size..

so i went back like a week later with my mom and we saw another sample and booked her.


i went to book her for my wedding. ive probably been to her place about a dozen times. lol

Sorry, another stupid question! Besides the BP, parents, and grandparents, do we have to get bouts or corsages for anyone else?
