Flowers...costs...

Hi all,

What is your total budget for flowers and what are you spending on the following items:

Bride's bo-k?
Bridesmaids bo-k?
centerpieces (each)?
ceremony flowers?

I think we are paying about $1500.

$800 for personal (not sure how much each amounts to, but this total will include Bride's BK, 5 BMs, 3 corsages, and 9 boutineers)
$600 for CPs
$100 for church

$1200:

my boq
moh boq
4 bm boq
kiss ball
2 fg baskets w/petals
20 aisle pew bows w/roses
12 bot's
6 corsage's
12 High CP's
rose petals for cones

I think this is what I am getting:

20 high centerpieces w/ pillar and votive candles
My bo-k
1 toss away bo-k
4 BM bo-k's
1 kissing ball
9 bouts
7 corsages
mantle decorations at hall
fabric drape on balcony
2 arrangements for church
10 pew bows with flowers
rose petals
I con't remember what else.

It's about $6,000. I know I could have spent less, but i love my florist (Flower Michele). I went to 3 others(Flowers by Brian and LA Blossoms) and they were all in the same ball park for what I wanted. The service at Flower Michele is really personalized and he will set everything up, not the delivery drivers. he also gives you great ideas and gets you really excited!

Good Luck!

Sending you FM
