Flowers price???

What is everyone budgeting for flowers? I am at a loss here and what to budget and if what I got quoted is the norm. Also can anyone suggest a florist?

It would depend on a few factors, such as size of bridal party, number of guests, which affects how many centerpieces you order, what flowers you're interested in using etc. Bigger flowers tend to cost more, but can fill up a vase fairly easily so you wouldn't need a whole lot of flowers, as opposed to small roses that may be slightly cheaper, but can add up depending on how full you want your centerpieces. Also go with flowers in season.

We budgeted 4500, but were able to save a few hundred dollars since our venue provides our chuppah. My florists is just gonna decorate it. We also have a big bridal party, 8 groomsmen, and now 11 bridesmaids, so I think we're getting a pretty good deal compared to other places.

Some places to check out that do amazing work, pedestals, flowers by brian, colonial florists, and my florist (designs by rose). Hope that helps, and good luck!

We actually aren't spending much on flowers. I never wanted floral centerpieces but the diy idea just wasn't happening.

It all really depends the type of flowers your want and the height of the centerpieces etc. Due to budget and wanting to spend more money elsewhere, we pretty much got everything that I wanted flower wise for way under what I even expected. We are using Hidden Essence and Michelle is definitely willing to work with any budget.

Re: Flowers price???

Flowers By Brian gave us a great price and wonderful centerpieces - I just saw the sample yesterday! I didn't want a really floral motif though - we're doing more curly branches, pussy willows, candles - the wintery thing. A couple orchids in the centerpieces, but only a handful. 75% of the flowers are going to be in the bouquets and the boutineres. 10-11 tables, 4 GM, 4BM and 1 Jr BM - VERY reasonably priced. If you want, I can FM you the cost.....just let me know

Hidden Essence - check her out! very reasonable. We wanted to do half low and half high but decided that by going all low, we can spend those funds on a photobooth instead. Def check Hidden Essence!

See Fabiola at Flowers By Brian. She is great. We got everything we asked for and more and stayed with in budget. Our original quote is $4000. We will prob end up being closer to 4500 because we will probably have to add more centerpieces as we get closer to our final count.
