OK what should this centerpiece cost me?

Roughly from what you girls have seen what do you think a centerpiece like this should run me?

Just the flowers I am providing the vases.

$50 ish? You could probably do better if you provided your own vase.

Re: OK what should this centerpiece cost me?

I would say $50 because i provided my own vases and am having only roses and thats what im paying.

I have white hydrangea and roses with a touch of Bells of Ireland @ $45.00 each from my florist.

I agree with the above posts... roses I heard can get pricey.... I think you'll be best off going to a local florist. My CPs are tall Calla Lillies with a mix of purple flowers in it and blue rocks... everything is supplied by the florist and I'm only paying $65 each...

Do you have a florist yet?

Designs by Rose and Verbena Design were the most creative and cost conscious that met with.

If you want only the roses.. you would be better off just buying a bunch of roses and DIY since you are doing the vase part.. but honeslty I was originally going to do something like this (only with different flowers.. roses are the cheapest, so it should be less than my quote) and they wanted 55-65 depending on vase, etc.

edt to add Designs by Rose quoted me that price.. but I dont know if they will do it without a vase

I would say it would be closer to $100. Roses are usually about $3 a stem and that vase would prob need about 30 roses.

yeah but a florist wont charge you the amount you normally buy it for at a store.

I was also told that for weddings when you get a cp with roses, its the lease expensive flower to get, its easy to get, its available all year round so thats why. I saw high rose cp's for $100-125, and this is a bit lower so i would say $50-75

Re: OK what should this centerpiece cost me?

i would say around $50-55. I was told roses are the cheapest because florists buy them in huge quantities since they are so popular.

Re: OK what should this centerpiece cost me?

Less than 50

ETA- I didnn't fully read it, I thought you weren't supplying the vases

Re: OK what should this centerpiece cost me?

I am going to say 55-60...because I was quoted 45 for a low CP with very few roses in them, with greens and holly, and this is more flower and less filler.
