i originally wanted a tightly packed ball of roses but got over that idea really quick
in order to get the effect i wanted ( all roses no filler) she would have had to use 5-6 dozen roses! so that would have been $$$$$

Re: FLOWERS
in that case you're better off getting a different type of CP, you can still get dramatic high cp's for a little less

Ok so it's all starting to make sense now
I figured roses = cheap but I guess it makes sense...if they're using atleast 4 dozen
Ugh - this *****

I'm sure your florist will let you pick different CPs, so don't worry. And, I'm sure you will find something else that you are very happy with!

what about hydrangea?? that will give you the same ball effect....might be cheaper b/c they are a bigger flower...what are your colors?

Re: FLOWERS
Call her and ask her exactly how many roses will be included in the centerpiece for $200. If she says 4 dozen maybe you could ask her how much it would be if the centerpiece was smaller and had only 3 1/2 or 3 dozen. Then whatever you do, make sure to get it all in writing in the contract, including the number of roses.

Re: FLOWERS
hydrangeas are expensive...avg at like $15/stem but they do cover more area so you need less of them....
I'm paying about $75 for my low CPs and $95 for my high but they're branches....if I wanted flowers it would have been $125 and that includes the base being filled with fruit and flowers....you have to shop around....$4k is def expensive for roses...I'm sure they'll be beautiful but its still pricey...it also depends on # of tables and stuff too...idk...I can refer you to a few people if u want....GOOD LUCK

you are def right about the hydrangea being expensive...but for every 1 hydrangea you would save 4-5 roses.
