Can people who booked their florist please list their quotes and what they are getting. I am freaking out because my friend who got married in December told me she spent over $8,000 dollars on flowers and I never thought it would be that much!!!

Re: Florist Help
I think on average the wedding budget guides suggest about 10% of your total budget.
It worked out to be just over that for us, but we have are a lot of things that most weddings don't .... decorating the ceiling with tulle, renting screens for the ceremony, chuppah decorations, etc.
ETA: Even with all the stuff listed above, we are also WELL below $8,000 too

Re: Florist Help
i paid $500 for my bo-k's and bouts and such, no centerpieces bc we used candles...you can see exactly what i got in my review. just shop around and spend what you are comfortable with. for me, i wasnt about to spend a couple grand on flowers that get tossed at the end of the night.

Re: Florist Help
We're using With All My Heart and ours are about $800 and we're getting:
Keep in mind that low or candle CPs are going to be less than high CPs. Cost can also depend on the types of flowers you want--things that are out-of-season are going to cost more. Good luck!

Re: Florist Help
$8k must of been for a really large wedding, with 20+ high centerpieces, TONS of extra floral displays, a large bridal party, and a completely decked out ceremony space....
don't worry. That is easily 2-4X the average cost everyone reports.... many weddings have floral $$ of under 2k.... inlcuding ours.
