If the flowers you want are in season for your wedding. If not, what can they offer that is in season. Usually whatever is in season is cheaper.

ask them how many weddings they book a day...and how many trucks they use to deliver the flowers...my florist uses one truck per wedding...sometimes other florists will cram all their weddings into one truck and it might squish your flowers.

If you are using a florist, find out if you are getting 'leftover' flowers or fresh..

We booked Flowers by Burton and they only do events.

A friend of mine who got married last summer just told me about Burton yesterday. She said that not only were the flowers beautiful, but they had the best prices around!

I second burtons! Any flower you want standard price. Very professional and great to deal with
