Without tax its 4287.

I think that is a bit much... I would shop around a bit more to see if you can find anything cheaper. But, if your heart is dead set on this specif florist, AND you can afford it...why not? Go for it. If not, try out some local flower shops or nersurys... they offer great prices! HTH

my florist wants cash prior to the wedding. They didn't say anything about taxes.

Re: Is Your......

The centerpiece is very unique, its kind of like a tree with branches and large flowers scattered on top with flowers around bottom and candles hanging! Ive seen variations of this before but not as pretty! Im stumped on where else to look!

yes im paying 590 for everything

Re: Is Your......

Those should all be in season when you get married, so it's not like you need flowers flown in.

I would try and haggle the price a little bit. In this economy, everyone is desperate for work and don't want to lose a potential sale.

But what do I say? I went about a month ago! Im not the haggling type!

Re: Is Your......

Just say:

'I'd love to work with you but that it's a little bit out of our price range. Is there a way to do this for say closer to $_____?'

Also, if you really love love love the CP's see if it would work out cheaper to get your CP's from them and your boks from another less expensive florist.

I would also try to call other florists and get some quotes from them for comparison.

Good Luck!
