Florist Cost

What is an average price for a florist?

Re: Florist Cost

It really depends on whether or not you are having floral centerpieces.

Re: Florist Cost

I'm having centerpieces. What I've heard though is you tell the florist how much money you have to work with. I'm concerned that no matter what price I tell them my arrangements will look the same.

Re: Florist Cost

You should ask your florist for a very detailed list of which flowers, how many, etc before you book anyone. I gave my florist a budget and pictures of what I wanted and she typed out line by line of everything that was included with very detailed descriptions. Then I was able to go back and cut a few things and changed my centerpieces a bit to lower the cost.

Re: Florist Cost

I agree with Jennyg, very sound advice, that is what I did. It is really hard to get a good cost quote if you don't have an idea of how many things you need..like bouts, corsages, centerpieces and bouquets.
