I met with an awesome florist yesterday but I had no idea how expensive flowers were. My quote was $2500 which includes my 9 girls flowers plus mine, 10 guys, 4 parents, 4 grandparents, church pew bows, rose petals, 12 centerpieces, cake flowers and fake bouquet to toss. What do you girls think?

Unfortunately, that sounds about right. Mine is a little less than that, but I have fewer people and more tables. I also chose inexpensive flowers for my CP to keep the cost down.

Re: Price of flowers
Man... I guess my florist is way more expensive
I got a quote from the only 2 florists I can use for $3400 and it included less than yours, I have less people and around the same amount of centerpieces...

Re: Price of flowers
Do you mind me asking what florist did you use and if your CP were high or low?

Re: Price of flowers
It also depends on the type of flowers you are having, too.

Re: Price of flowers
That sounds like a great price to me - that's a lot of bouquets and centerpieces to order along with all the other items. It adds up but IMO it sounds like you are getting a lot too.

That quote was from Flower Michele and I absolutely loved the work that I saw there. John was amazing, he was so helpful, I just had no idea flowers were that expensive. But thank you for all the positive feedback. It helped alot.
