Help! I need some advice.

So I'm not having my wedding at a traditional hall. I'm having it at a private hall but the linens and chair covers aren't included. So I got a price from the place that does almost every event there. The women is amazing. And I asked her to do the flowers too. She gave me a price of $6645.00. For
25 floor length table cloths with these amazing overlays
250 satin chair covers
250 napkins to match the tables
25 high center pieces with all flowers for head table entrance table and buffet tables.
7 bouquets
9 bouttiners
My bouquet
2 courtisages
10 pew bows
2 floral pieces for church
Seating chart with easel and stand

So here's my two questions

Does this seem like to much money?
Is it wrong to ask to see a sample table with the centerpiece before we book?

Please help I really love her work. But want to see a sample just to ease my mind.

i am sorry I can't be a help, I would prob think any price was too high and that you were getting ripped off!! We are having our wedding at an RH where they have included the chair covers, sashes, and colored linens. Sorry!!!

I'm having my reception at the Portuguese American center. I figured about 3500 for flowers. But to still spend 3000 on linens... is it crazy?
