what do you guys think the diff in pricing is for flowers vs. candles? or what a reasonable quote is for 8 CPs, 3 bouquets and 3 bouts?

Re: Flowers vs. Candles
I would say it depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for something very simple as far as candles go, you could just order them in bulk. I'm sure the cost would be in the very low hundreds.
We are def doing candles. Not b/c of the cost but because we don't really want flowers, but I am SO excited that they are going to be so much less than flowers.

Re: Flowers vs. Candles
i'm loving peonies and other than that i have no idea. i want high CPs. my RH has candelabras they let you use, you just have to supply the flowers that go up top so it becomes a high CP. i'm trying to figure out how much aof a difference candles vs flowers would be so i can be prepared when i start visiting florists.

Re: Flowers vs. Candles
I know I saved money with candle centerpieces but really I just didn't want a ton of flowers on small tables. I'm artsy and I felt that I could do so much with a beach theme rather than just putting flowers out. I didn't get a quote with centerpieces but with all of the bo-k's a ton of boutineres, extras and ceremony decorations that are quite large and delivery I'm under $600 with Flowers by Burton. Pedestals quoted me around $1000 and then I found out FSIL had a bad experience with them. I probably spent between $100-$150 on our centerpieces cause I made extras.
