Re: flowers.....
that's a pretty broad question....it totally depends on how many centerpieces, if they are high or low, how many bo-q's for bridesmaids, church decor, etc.
Personally, I was quoted for 22 TALL CP's full (no greens at all), church flowers (2 big arrangements), piu bows with flowers, CH floating bowls with small flowers, 6 BM bo'qs, my boq, corsages, bouts, a hugeeee tree CP in the waiting area/entrance of the hall, ceiling draping, chair sashes..............$6000

I haven't decided on my centerpieces yet but my florist said what ever I tell her I want to spend for each table is fine.

Re: flowers.....
i paid almost nothing for my flowers. my RH did all the centerpieces (they were simple but did the job), and the hall was already decorated. I just had to pay for my bo-k and the bridesmaids bo-ks. we don't like bout., so we did a fun tie for the guys instead. it all depends on what you want!

Re: flowers.....
5 tall centerpieces, 2 altar flowers for the Church, bouquets for the 2 mom's, boutonniers for the guys, and also floating candles/rose petals for the tables at Cocktail Hour....- I think I am paying a total of $ 1,750. For 6 CPs, the total would've been $ 1,900. I negotiated down because I am paying in cash (they aren't charging my sales tax).
I booked Flowers by Brian almost a year ago though, so the prices may have gone up now.
Pics of the actual CPs are in my album.
