is this a good quote?

I have to use one of the florists by rh recommends so I went to j*ck and R*se today and they quoted me around 2200 including tax and delivery for:

1 bridal bouquet
5 bridal bouquets
1 groom boutonniere
7 groomsmen boutonnieres
11 table center pieces high and low (or high and the 3 cylinder vases w/ flowers and floating candles...whatever i choose) also flower petals and candles on all the tables
rose petals and candles for the newlywed table
rose petal and candles for the card table
and flowers for the cake
what do u ladies think?

if you go to B**rtons it will be cheaper. They quoted me the same for almost double what you are getting. Check them out in Melville.

I would def look into other florists. I am getting more than double for that price with a different florist.

If you are stuck using certain florists use price quotes as leverage between the different florists.

do your research on this company, they might be one of your house vendor's like they are one of mine, but after reading BBB reports and other reviews of them, I went elsewhere for my flowers.

I would ask the BM if you have the option to use an outside vendor if you are not happy with the in-house ones.

Have you received any quotes from the others? As the ladies have mentioned definitely research each vendor.

Definitely seems high to me. If you have to use a house vendor I would definitely look into the other ones....I'm getting a lot more for less than you're paying.

Seems a bit high. They are rec by my RH as well but I havent heard good things about them so I stoid away. Check out Distinctive... they are really great there and may give u a better price.

I love distinctive! If you do call them make an appointment with Maria. She is such a doll and their customer service is phenomenal! I was priced higher there then B*rtons, but I just loved the way they treated me so much better I booked them on the spot.

I loved Distinctive. They gave me a good quote and was able to haggle a bit. They did an amazing job at my wedding!
