high and low centerpieces for 18 tables
6 bridesmaid bks
1 bride bk
8 bouts.
2 mini bks for moms
2 pieces for the church
bows for the pews
votives and rose petals for the cocktail hr

Re: florist question

i think it sounds pretty good, as long as you are happy w your flowers

18 centerpieces are the bulk of the cost. the fact that you have church pieces sounds good

Re: florist question

It seems a little much...I would price around..you may get a cheaper quote somewhere else.

Re: florist question

Sounds about right. You have a lot of tables and a decent size bridal party.
