Re: flowers
How many people will you have total in your bridal party? Also, what kind of centerpieces are you looking at high or low.
ETA: I have seen some people get about 2-3K worth in flowers or more. I have gotten quotes from 900 -1400, but I have a very small bridal party and small wedding.

Re: flowers
its really tough to say.
depends on how big of centerpieces you want. i need 20 centerpieces- and 3 florists quoted me 200 a centerpiece. i want the tall centerpieces- full and tight with flowers.

Re: flowers
I am looking to have low cenerpieces....nothing too crazy. We're having 250 people so that is about 25 tables plus us and maybe on the food buffet???
I know it is hard to give an exact estimate....I just dont even have a starting point

Re: flowers
Pedestals quoted me for 8 low centerpieces which includes a charge for the vases @ $760. Bridal bouquets and other flowers (no flowers for our church) was quoted $710.
I was told by other brides that this is a bit pricey for my small event.
I am getting quoted for the same items for about $400-500 cheaper with Flowers & Designs by Gina (she is a LIW vendor). If you want to see some of her work check out the photo album of MitziandAndrew. She had a unique view for her Cp's, but it still came out beautiful. And from what I hear very very affordable.
