Flower budget

What did you set aside for your flower budget?

If you booked a florist, ballpark how much did you spend?

I am so lost I have no idea how much flowers cost

I'd like to not have to spend more than $2500 - I'm only having four girls in the bp, fh has two guys and we'll probably end up with 13-14 tables for centerpieces.

Re: Flower budget

Yea I think the centerpieces are whats gonna give me problems. THe good thing though is that I know the girl getting married before me so we are splitting the church flowers.

Re: Flower budget

I spoke with some florist already and I was told:
Bride Boq- @150 & up
BMs-75 & up
Bots- @$7
Moms-$25 & up
This all depends on the flowers you want and how big...you can always go smaller which will help the prices go down as well.

Samething with CPs all depends on flowers and what is in season.

I only need flowers for 3 girls, 7 bots and 2 things for the moms and a few flowers for the flower girl.
On top of that I bought mostly all the glassware for my CPs which I was told by past brides that it saves you alot.
I am doing half candles and the other CPs will have flowers but, differnt variations.
So I figure I'll be spemding @ 425-550.
My hall does the CPs so I will use the credit towards something with the flowers.
HTH

Re: Flower budget

This is why I plan on using candles - I can't bare the thought of spending 3k on flowers

Re: Flower budget

I am actually considering going with fake...my mother has done some beautiful arrangements with fake flowers before..and if it cuts the cost down and still looks beautiful i'm all for it. When it gets a little closer I'll go to Michaels or someplace like that and play around with a few ideas with my mom...
