$200 for your bok sounds like a lot... what flowers are you using?

$12 for a bout also seems extremely high to me

at first i thought it was high but after reading exactly what you are getting i think it sounds pretty good.

for roses and callas... that seems very high...

ETA: My florist said my quote would be cheaper if i used roses... because of how often they get them in...

i'm using 3 different kinds of calla lilies and my bouquet is less than $200. see if they can bring that down. Agree about the bouts too.

I wouldn't tell her. I actually want the low ones and I got quoted 90 each for them. That's not a giant difference but it's something.
