I was wondering how much it would run for just the girls bouquets, corsages and boutinieres (sp?)? I dont need flowers for the church or reception and I was wondering if this is done often. Trying to figure out my budget and how much I should put aside for flowers. Thanks

That is what I am doing except I am buying one piece for church too. FM Flowers By Emil with what you are interested in and Carmine will help you. He is wonderful to work with.

Thanks for the recommendation NYLisa. I was trying to get a guesstimate before I start calling places. I dont know how much I should be putting aside. This is one area I dont want to spend too much.

It really all depends on what of flowers you want and how many you need of each. I would say between $300-$500. Don't hold me to this range, please.

Hi! I would recommend booking your florist this year for the prices....each year they go up, so why not book now. I only needed Bo-ks and for every Bo-k I purchased, the boutonier was FREE! They also threw in the Throw away Bo-k for FREE. Then I also purchased 4 corsages. My total was $700. I am allowed to pick any flower and put any color ribbon or special effects into it. Hope this helps.

All bo-k's and guy flowers (hehe) and grandmothers, mothers.
Not using flowers for our tables and not getting married in a church.

I am actually just getting my bouquet. We're not doing bouts, and I only have a MOH so I will make her a small hand-tied bouquet myself.
Any florist should be fine with it.

Re: Is anyone just purchasing bouquets?
I have a huge bridal party, and I'm only doing the personal flowers as well. For my 8 BMs, 8 GMs, FG, and Jr. GM, as well as Parents and two extra corsages, the whole package is around $700. It would be less, but like I said, I have a HUGE party. I'm using the Scotto Bros. In-house florist, Chris from Perfect Wedding Planner.

Re: Is anyone just purchasing bouquets?
I will need 3 bouquets for my girls and 1 for me. I also will need some flowers for the church, but nothing too extravagant. I'll be working with Laurie from LA Blossom to make that happen. I will only be allocating a few hundred dollars...
