God, I can't believe the ranges in the pricing.... The flowers will be my last booking task, I had no idea it could get so expensive

It's so crazy b/c I am getting such high quotes, much higher than what you girls are saying your are getting for your money! I do have more tables (like 25) but I'm doing 1/2 high, 1/2 low and the quotes I'm getting, the cheapest was Burton's was $3,600 and they go up from there. I'm not asking for any exotic flowers either (roses and hydrangea for the cps). I've been to all the florists (FM, Pedestals, Fleurissima, Little Flower Shoppe, Lovin Oven, James Cress, Verbena, etc.) and they are all in the same ball park. I don't get it.
Oh well. I'll figure it out!
we haven't searched for florists yet, but I bet I know what makes all your quotes high.... the hydrangea.... they're out of season in Nov, and unlike roses which are available all year at reasonable prices, hydrangea become really $$$ in fall and winter....
