Florist help

Hi everyone! My FH and I are starting to look into florists now, but I really don't know where to begin. Honestly, flowers are the least important to me... I just want them to look pretty and colorful! lol.
How much should FH and I budget for flowers? We would need about 15 centerpieces, 6 bridesmaids bouquets, 1 bridal bouquet, 1 throw bouquet, 9 boutonnieres. How much should I expect these to cost? Do you know of any florists that could work with about $1500 or less?

thanks so so much!

I paid more for my flowers, but that's because I used calla lilies - which run more expensive, but I thought that Hidden Essence was great. Michelle worked really well and she gave me the best first. She was wonderful.

I paid very little for flowers in the grand scheme of things. I would contact Michelle from Hidden Essence. She was able to work within our super small budget and had great ways to cut costs and get awesome centerpieces.

From what I've read on here Burton's seems to be the most reasonably priced, but I don't know if they would be under 2000 for what you need, worth a visit though to find out I guess! Lol if you want I can fm you the quote I received when we met with them.

I was quoted about $2200 from Burtons and I am getting basically the exact same thing you want plus 3 corsages, 2 ceremony arrangements for near the arch, and 8 arrangements in mason jars for the chairs at the ceremony, and also flowers for my flower girl. I might have other things but I can't remember.
