We are currently looking at florists and I'm just wondering if there is a place you guys recommend. We looked at a florist today and we were quoted just under $3000:
1 bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 8 butineers, 16 centerpieces (the 3 cylinder w/the flowers in the water & the floating candles), and the corsages for the moms & grandmas. The bouquets are calla lilies - which I think are more than roses - is the $3000 high? Or is that about average?
Any help on good florists is appreciated! Thanks!!!

Contact Michells from Hidden Essence. She is great. I went to 6 florists and found that she made me the most comfortable and she really understood what I wanted plus her prices are great!
THIS !
3K is high!

Check out your local florist too! I'm doing the same as you except my florist allowed me to but the centerpieces on my own, she will setup & provide me more that you have now for 1/2 price you were quoted!
This! I am using a local florist from my hometown and saving a ton! She quoted me at $45-$50 per bridesmaid bouquet (whatever flowers I wanted). Everywhere else I looked wanted double.

Thanks for all the help. I'm meeting with Michelle on Tuesday, I'll let you know how it goes.
And we called Burt*n's but they can't do our date

I absolutely loved Sheryl from Black Dahlia. She has an office out of her home in Dix Hills and an office on location at The Woodlands, where I got married and she is one of the preferred florists. She was incredibly reasonable given when I received and was a joy to work with!

Thanks for the help everyone!!! We met with Michelle today and she quoted us more than $1000 less, including ceremony decorations. My fiancé's parents are probably going to gift us the flowers, so we are going to talk it over with them and see how what they say. But I really felt comfortable with her.
