Flower estimates

Can you ladies tell me about how much you are paying for flowers and what exactly you are getting for that? I'm not sure if the prices that I'm getting are good/bad. Thanks so much everyone!

Re: Flower estimates

I think I'm getting an excellent deal, although we haven't booked them yet. The only thing I'm worried about with mine is- where's the catch. It may be in the fullness of the bo-k's and cp's, so I have to watch out for that and will pay a little extra if need be to have them put in more roses. Also, I'm only really using mostly roses, which the florist says happen to be the least expensive flower.
I was quoted $2810 for:
chuppah with flowers
23 cp's (low, bubble vase with 24 roses and 'wax' sprigs'
6 bo-k's incl. one bigger for MOH (all roses)
11 bout's incl. 2 dads, 1 grandpa, 6 GM/BM, 1 RB, groom
1 coursage, 2 single flowers for moms
rose petals at placecard table and around votives at CH tables
flowers in bathroom
flowergirl's basket and petals
my bo-k (roses and stephanotis)
ceremony decor (things to put cp's on, etc.)

i think that's everything!
(incl. delivery and staying through ceremony to move flowers)

Re: Flower estimates

I went to more than a dozen florists. For bridal bo-k and 3 BM bo-ks (all calla lilies), 10 bouts, 13 low CPs (hydrangea, gerber daisies, alstromerea w/ candles), 2 corsages (1 orchid, 1 roses), 1 FG basket, and petals for tossing, I was quoted a low of $1400, and a high of $3000. Most of the quotes came in @ $1600.
