well what kind of flowers would they be, that would make a HUGE difference in the price. Thats why nobody probably posted anything bc honestly the prices for flowers vary too greatly...if you get roses it will be ALOT less than a flower that is out of season or a flower that is just expensive in general all year round. If you say what flowers you are considering more girls will be able to give you a general idea

well for example you can have a cp with certain flowers that can cost lets say $75-100 but then change the flowers and it can be $175-200 per cp. Generally low cp's are between $50-100 and high cp's are generally $125-200 each, the large range depends on the flower...if you get a rose high cp it can be about $125 each

Our florist told us that if we chose a vase with a smaller 'mouth' then they would fill it with less flowers saving us money.
I personally don't want to spend 1500 on centerpieces and I'm thinking of making my own. I just wish artificial flowers didn't look so artificial!

I am using Burtons. The great thing about them is that they don't charge based on the type of flower you use. They just quote you on quantity ex. how many centerpieces and you don't have to pick the flowers until right before. I am using mostly calla lilies so for me I saved a lot of money by using them.

Kristen, you may want to do what I dod. I went to A.C. Moore and bought 24 hurricane vases. They were sooooo cheap and I had a coupon.

When I went to Flower Michele I showed them my vases and then I only paid for the actual flowers and it saved us some money and you can pick any vase you like cause A.C. Moore has sooo many to choose from

Good Luck
