Did you have any problems with b rtons? Did you get the flowers you wanted? That is an amazing deal, I can't believe it includes flowers for the church also.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I am definitely going to have to look into them! I wanted high centerpieces but didn't think they would be in the budget!!!

You made me smile today!

I went with Santapogue in West Babylon. They work out of their house so it is cheaper because they do not pay store front. He is charging me $35 per BM, $60 bride, $75 high center pieces, $15 for mom/grandma and including closed white roses for men. I told him what I wanted to spend and he altered for that. My sister and a few friends have used them and only the best experiences.

I used Santapogue in WB. My sister used them and they did beautiful work. He charged me $35 for BM, $60 for mine, $75 for high centerpieces, $15 for moms and included a closed rose for the GM.

We didn't really go in with one, but we paid $1060 and got:

Bridal Bo-K
MOH Bo-K
Throwaway Bo-K
2 Nosegays for the moms (they didn't want corsages)
5 corsages for the grandmas and the readers
11 boutineers (including an extra for the groom so it always looked fresh in the pictures throughout the day)
12 centerpieces (low)
Flowers for the cake

We used mainly calla lilies (yellow, white, and Picasso), irises, and Belles of Ireland

Re: what is/was your floral budget?

I didn't want to spend alot of money on flowers bc I just don't like the fact that they are all dead by the end of the night...so I am doing eerything myself using Real Touch Flowers. they aren't cheap, but I saved over $3,000 doing them. I think I spent a little over 1,000. This included:

17 boutnineers
11 bm boks
my bok
vases
orchids in vases
mirriors
candles
rocks
diamonds

I think this is where we saved the most, and it looks and feels so real!!
