So we met with Ginny tonight. I'm going to be honest, we got there and were a little leary b/c of the 'factory type' set up. We we were quickly impressed by Ginny, and got very interested. So let me get some opinions about our package and our quote
oh btw - the gave us one of the low table arrangements the display just for the heck of it. beautiful glass cube with no joke 2 dozen roses in it. i thought that was awesome
so here's our package:
all sorts of purples - lavender freesia, purple delphinium, lavender stock, white stock, lisianthus, mini calla lillies (white & purple) lavender and white roses, etc.
arbor clusters (ceremony) 4 arrangements on low tables- aisle (ceremony) dais - smaller versions of table cp's in small glass cubes 15 CP's in glass cubes (low arrangements) mantle clusters to match CP's my boK 2 BM boK's 3 corsages 5 boutaneirs (no charge)
$2575.
good or bad???

Re: my meeting with... (sorry so long)
i would try to get them to lower it....i know about a few flowers though, not a flower expert so not sure if the flowers you got are out of season or not or the price range of them...i know the basic ones such as roses, calla's, peonies lol.

Re: my meeting with... (sorry so long)
hmmm..i went w/pedestals and that is just a little less than what im paying but i have more CPs and more BOKs. i would try to talk them down. also u dont really need a centerpiece on your table u can just place your BOK along with MOH and BM on the table. thats what they suggested for me. i would talk to them and see what they say.

Re: my meeting with... (sorry so long)
so all the ceremony flowers the arbor and those 4 arrangements is like $700
the CP's are $100 each i thought that was high, so that's $1500 right there.
i don't get it, it thought people always got such reasonable prices from them, where did i go wrong????

100 for low cp's, i would ask them why, maybe one of the flowers are out of season or even worse maybe alot of them are, if so ask them what you can do to change it a bit to lower the price or how they can work with you to lower it

doesnt matter, they can still get flowers if they are out of season. And some flowers are just expensive in general such as calla's. I would look up the flowers you are getting and find out info about them

Re: my meeting with... (sorry so long)
you could probably lower it, but sounds like you are using a lot of different flowers. So that hikes up the price
