FLORIST SPENDING
I am clueless on the average price.(I know it depends on how many in my bridal party)
But how much did you or do you plan on spending on this?
(For everything- bridal bouquets, ceremony, etc)

I think everyone is different depending on the type of flowers they want and the types of attangements but dont forget, the larger your guest list, the more tables you will have which means the more centerpieces. That is something to consider. I have a large wedding so we are opting for 1/2 high and 1/2 low centerpieces to save on cost and even the room out

I'm spending about $1000 but that's with partially doing my centerpieces,not going crazy on flowers in bok, (btw i have 7 maids) etc. This wasn't an area I wanted to splurge on but rather look nice while saving some lloot.

Our first quote was 5,000. We really wanted tree limbs. We decided to tone it down a bit because that quote was insane. We are now allowing for a $2,500-$3,000 budget

Re: FLORIST SPENDING
So many variables but here is a break down:Brides bouquet $100 and up (sometimes includes a toss bouquet
BM bouquets $50 and up
Boutonnieres $10
Corsages $20-$25
Centerpieces $75 and up
Church arrangements $100 and up
Don't forget delivery. There might be a flat fee or it could be added to each piece.

I think ours will be 5-6k, but we are going over the top on flowers because I love flowers insanely!My FSIL spent about 5k but she had orchids many of them, on every centerpiece and had like 24 tables.
So if you are just doing normal flowers, it should not be more than 4k from my thinking.

Haha when she said 175-250 per centerpiece, I got over the idea pretty quickly. We joked that FH and his groomsmen can go chop trees down for his bachelor party
Now we're considering just tall centerpieces still including branches, just in a vase with a floral arrangement at the bottom. And to think you're just RENTING the trees makes it even more insane.
