To: Kathi RE: Colonial Florist

I am looking for a florist and have heard great things about Colonial. What types of flowers did you get, how many and what was the price for everything? I would appreciate any info. Thanks. Nicole D

Nicole D. -

Hi - We got my bouquet (all white roses and stephanotis), 4 BM bouquet (mostly roses), FG baby's breath halo + rose petals for her basket, 2 mother's corsages (orchid and roses), 10 other corsages (roses), 9 bouts (all roses), 12 centerpieces (mixed arrangement: roses, mini sunflowers, gerber daisies, lilies, wheat, berries, and more...), cake topper and cake table petals - they're going to decorate the cake & table. Everything was just under $1500. We didn't spend a whole lot on our centerpieces (I think they were $70 each). This is where we *saved* money. Hope this helps! We dealt with Irene since the owner, Claudio was in Italy - she's really patient and has some great ideas. Good luck!
