Floral CP BREAKDOWN!!!

Ok ladies I am losing my mind trying to find an affordable florist or an affordable arrangement!!! I want a tall arrangement and I've thought getting my own vase. But these quotes are INSANE!!! Did anyone get an arrangement quote less than $100 per arrangement? Im looking to stay no more than $85. Is that UNREALISTIC?! I need you're help because im borderline INSANITY!!!

This is my inspiration, without the branches to lower costs and maybe smaller.

That is a beautiful CP! Unfortunately most of the high ones I have seen start @ around $100. Maybe if you go with less expensive flowers? Don't know, just a suggestion.

My florist told me for the centerpieces to tell her what I want and give her the price I'm willing to spend per centerpiece. You could try her. FM for more information about my florist, if your interested.

yes! i'm sorry to say it, but for a high cp $85 is unrealistic... esp for something like in that pic

ITA!

i think the branches are what are making that CP really stand out.
$85 seems a bit unrealistic, maybe if it was for a low CP, but for a tall one...

Have you looked into Burton's? They were really reasonable. I don't remember the price now, but I remember them being the lowest. I used them for my wedding and we have 20 high CPs, 5 BM bo-ks, my bo-k, 14 boutenniers, ceremony decor, cake decor all for $3k.

Was just going to say that! I have 19 high and low Cp's and 22 people in my bridal party. Total cost was $2113.

this CP is absolutely gorgeous though, I love where you are going with this!
This centerpiece looks like it cost about $275
calla lilies are one of the more expensive flowers and the CP is very full with A LOT of flowers
I don't think it's the branches that are going to lower the cost

if you get ride of half of the calla lilies and cut the number of flowers in half in that CP, florists may be able to work with something around your price
good luck!!

Go talk to *******...they give you a price for what you want (high vs low etc.) and you can pick any flowers you want!

I have NO IDEA!!! I've written their name before and the same happened to me w/ the stupid stars. I don't get it, so now I'm trying to use a symbol somewhere in their name. Plenty of vendors are mentioned on this site...not sure what's the problem with writing B U R T O N * S....Does anyone know what the reason is???

I think it's because they are not an LIW sponsored vendor

its not because they arent a sponsored vendor. I forget the reason, but there is more to it than that.

You can post about most non sponsored vendors on here, there are a select few that you cant, you would need to ask CS


ETA:

Check Bur Tons, also designs by rose. A way to keep cost down, as has been said, half high, half low centerpieces make a beautiful statement, especially with Calla lilies.

when the vendors name is ***'ed out it means they either screwed up with a wedding/LIW bride or they engaged in behavior that violated LIW's terms of service (ie posting as fake brides, sending FM to brides as mass advertising, etc). I heard from another bride that the invitation woman (ie 'HER') was bleeped out because she came on LIW under a fake name and posted reviews of her own company...
