flowers!

a friend of mine was quoted over 23K for flowers. seriously. the quote did not come from an liw vendor or a long island vendor, they are in PA. i nearly dropped to the group when i heard this, i cannot believe that it is true. would you pay this for flowers?

and ps, she is not actually paying this much, just a quote. there is no way her parents would but up that much money for flowers.

thats what i said. my budget is 24K. i don't know what this included.

don't know the wedding size, probbaly about 200.

in reality her parents are incredible well off, and the most down to earth people, and we think that this guy was just taking advantage of the fact that her parents have the $$ to shell out. they never would and are very angry that this man is trying to take advantage. ps, the wedding is in april.

hey hall twin,

that amount is absolutely absurd
and from PA. I thought NY was the most expensive when it came to everything. guess i was wrong.


I would say ok, thanks, but no thanks.

Is the florist a hollywood type why he/she would want to charge that much? Sounds like what hollywood hunchos pays for their florist.

Thats a price for the very rich and usually famous.. Ive seen weddign show's where they paid like 40K...(Whose wedding is it anyway/Bridezilla)

I think its crazy.. I dont think I would do that even if I was well off!! Good for her parents, not letting him take advantage!!
