Hmm... I'm using burtons. They were much more yet still reasonable, but that is because you can get any flowers. You could try talking to them perhaphs they could make you a good deal.

I would try With All My Heart Wedding Boutique in Port Jeff Station....she did my wedding flowers.....she has very reasonable packages and is willing to work with you. Lenea Greene is her name and she is vendor on this website. She also does favors and other wedding details, but I found her prices to be very reasonable. She is going to make corsages for my friend's bridal shower, she is great! -Michelle
