What are people paying for flowers? What kind of flowers are you using? Who are you using?
I think I want medium-height CPs, and will provide own vases if it will be cheaper. I need 7 boks, 9 bouts and 3 corsages. No ceremony flowers. I am not into using exotics or out of season flowers.
Can anyone share their package, price, and florist for me so I have an idea? Thanks!!!!

I'm using a local florist. They were very willing to negotiate and we worked out the following:
thats an AMAZING quote!! another poster said they used a local florist and it was around your price- I'm gonna look into my local florist too!!! Thanks!
Definitely do it! We had met with Pedestals and for the exact same things they said the LOWEST they could do was $1000! I am not a flower person so I was like HE11 NO! We just got up and walked out

I'm a bit frustrated because I keep hearing all these awesome quotes for burtons but they quoted me so high for less!
I asked for only 1 bm bok bride bok 6 bouts 3 coursages petals for fgs 18 cps - I know they say it doesn't matter but none exotic or out of season...
and they quoted me over $2700... what's up with that??
If I were you, I'd email them from a different address and ask for the quote again. See what they say now. That is really strange!!!!

Re: How much for flowers?
It seems definitely more worthwhile to go with a local florist? Any local florist recommendations?

Re: How much for flowers?
I def saved in this area! I was soooo unwilling to spend a butt load on something that'll die.
Because I'm using Muffs instead of flowers for my girls, and candles for the CPs, all i need are: 1 bouquet for me 1 bouquet to toss 3 boutonnières 2 corsages
My local florist gave me an estimate of $120

That's what I got quoted from them as well... and that was for the low CPs... Soo.. I went to a local florst, got some exotic flowers added... flowers for the cake, taller CPs, FG baskets and petals...ETC and about 1K less!!
