hi! Well i went to Flower Michele today and got some prices. Total package came to $8800 a bit steep for me. My bouquet and 10 for my girls plus corsarges, and 30 table pieces and rose petals and candles in my hall was all included also two pieces for the church w/ tulling. they did through in a free piece for the cocktail hour though. so i still think i need to shop around but you are right they are beautiful!

My sister went to Stefan's today and was quoted just a little over $4000 for her bo-k, 5 girls and coursages, two pieces for the church plus 12 pew decorations, and somewhere around 20 tall centerpieces.

She said the guy was really nice, I think his name was Paul. Her flowers would be roses, orchids and lillies. She said they're going to do a sample for her before she books for no charge at all so she can see if she likes the work.

They're definitely on my list of florists to check out!

HTH!

I'm thinking the same thing as you! I had no idea flowers would cost that much!! I was going with like $2,000 tops. Looks like I better start growing my own flowers or else have my BM's walk down the aisle with potted plants

I hope you don't mind me crashing your board....

I just booked Flower Michele a couple weeks ago and they are great - John is awesome! The best thing to do is to go in with a set budget and stick to it. John will definitely work with you, just let him know upfront how much you have to work with.
HTH.

Feel free to FM me if you have any questions.

That scares me, because that's approximately the same amount of flowers that I am going to need.
