I got a quote from the house florist of about $1,500 for (sorry about the spelling):
My bo-k (roses and stefanotas) 8 BM bo-ks (6 roses, hydrangea and some other flower) FG basket 17 CP (dozen roses on glass w/ floating candles) 4 sets of isles with bows 1 set of isles with bow and flowers 2 Moms coursages (3 roses) 1 Dad boutenere (roses) 2 readers(1 rose) 8 GM bouteneres (stefanotas)
Should I even look anymore? Or will I find similar prices out there?
PS I get $25 included w/ the CP's because they are the house florist.

That sounds like a fantastic price to me! As long as youve seen some of their work and like it Id book them.

Well there books were kind of out dated and they dont seem overly creative, Ive mostly come up w/ the ideas and then have him price it out. But we are on a strict budget. Basicaly if they can make this bo-k exactly like the picture then Id be happy.
I think that price is very reasonable for what you're getting. Why don't you shop around, this way you can compare prices?

Re: Florist Price, should I keep looking?
It sounds reasonable, but you don't sound thrilled...if their books seem outdated are their designs going to be what you want? If they're a thriving business, why wouldn't their books be updated with pictures from recent brides? I'd go to one or two florists...You know that sayng 'if it sounds too good to be true...it is!'
Maybe you'd like to try Trina from Expressions Floral...and read the posts to find one other. Then you will really know (by comparing rice, fullness of bouquets, and choice of flowers) whether this really is reasonable and, I think more importantly, whether it's what you really want. Think about it. Flowers are in all parts of the DAY and in most of the pictrues!
