Itemized list of Flowers...cost of bouquet?

Original post by Kathy116

I posted an earlier subject about astronomical prices for centerpieces ($350)...now I just want to know about the others:

My Bouquet: $200 (about 3 dozen roses, stephanotis, and something else I forgot )

MOH bouquet: $180
Bridal party bouquet: around $120

flowers for end of pews: approx. $100 a piece.

I have no idea how much bouquets run on the average, are these prices astronomical?

Thanks

I'm a retard, I misread your post, and thought you meant that the stephanotis IS the reason why the cost is so high.

Okay, it's Friday, I can't read anymore...time for some wine!

Hydrangeas in December are very expensive. You can do much better than that. Sticking to seasonal flowers will help your budget out.

That first one is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!

THat's totally what I want! Are those considered champagne roses?

Go with the first one, I love it! Now that I look at the picture again, there's 2 slightly different colors in that bouquet! Gorgeous!

What do your centerpieces look like?????? You've got great taste!

Are you kidding, you'd be in trouble if you went to my dad...he'd suggest a cherry tree or an arborvitae for your centerpiece!!!

However, they've got the landscaping plants!! Unfortunately, my wedding is December, so it's not like my dad could get me all sorts of flowers for the outside Too bad.

But, they've got Poinsettas for the house pictures

The 1st bouquet consists of 'Vendela Cream' and 'Candy Bianca Blush' roses.

I don't have a pic of my centerpiece, but they will consist of green hydrangea, the cream & blush roses (as mentioned above) and seeds of eucalyptus cascading. I need to speak to my florist, b/c I've been thinking about switching my centerpiece to this: Click Here (I love the moss!!!)

The centerpiece you described are the same flowers I asked for with the expensive florist, except I also asked for some orchids.

Girl, I like your style!

I think the seeded eucalptus is beautiful. That's what this florist recommended (instead of this other flower which I loved, but I can't remember the name...it looks mossy but it hangs off the centerpieces, like a stringy moss).

I think those prices are too high - & you can def. get the same stuff cheaper elsewhere.

$150 for my bo-k, but its all calla lillies & a few roses

$80 for Maid & Matron
$70 for BMs.

nearly 10,000 for flowers seems ridiculous....definitely try to keep looking!

I'm using pedestals and I'm really happy with them! Maybe you should look into them.

I'm paying $250 for 2 big arrangements for the church alter ($150 ea.)

$15 for each pew bow with roses.

$100 for each centerpiece which is a raised candelabra.

my boo-k is $185 Black magic roses with stepahnotis with rhinestones, ivy, and lily of the valley

(the brides boo-ks are generally between $185-$200 but if you have a bigger body type where a bigger bouquet would look best then it's the $200 bouquet)

MOH and Bridesmaids are $85 each

Junior bridesmaid is $60

FG is $40 for the basket with flowers to match mine and petals

Corsages for moms $20 each

Corsages for grandmoms $15 each

A few of things I'm getting no charge...

1. They fill the cones with petals for church
2. Petals and votives for the place card table
3. Petals and votives for dais
4. All the mens bouteniere's (sp?) grm, ush, dads
5. Cascade arangement for the dais.
