Flowers $$$$

We ordered flowers and I got everything I wanted, (so I'm not complaining), but wow when you have 9 girls in the wedding party it really adds up....

I wanted to cut back but my mom insisted on going with the $1100 total since its the only thing she is paying for, but feel so bad she put it on her credit cards she doesnt have the money, but it was making her mad when I wanted to go 'less' for the price for her...

Anyone else get these guilt feelings with others scrimping for wedding stuff?

I'm always worried about what everything is costing and whoever is paying.

My friend is using parasols for the BMs to walk down the aisle with instead of boks which is such a cute idea. I'd love to come up with something creative like that to help with costs.

WOW..all your flowers came to $1100??? WHat does this include and where did you go???

Is that just for the girls and you?

It sounds like your Mom wanted to pay for it for you. I'm sure she wouldn't pay if she couldn't. And she know you appreciate it.

I felt bad when my Mom put my dress deposit on her cc AND then paid for half our e-party (which was more than we expected).

They said not to feel bad about it b/c they wanted to to it, but I still feel bad.

9 bridesmaids bouquets
like 9 men bouts
2 mom corsages
3 special women corsages

add ons to centerpieces (that are included in hall)

I know what you mean! We have 7 bm's. My FSIL used to work at a florist and she said the bo-q's can be as much as $40, I told her they want $85 a bo-q and she almost fell off her chair!
