Submerged flowers in vases as centerpieces

Does anyone have any florist quotes for this? Is this generally cheaper than low centerpieces?

TIA

Re: Submerged flowers in vases as centerpieces

I made my own for my engagement party. I bought the vases at Marshall's for $7 each (they were 18' tall), the orchids from flowerexchange.com (they arrived 3 days before the party), the shells at the $.99 store, and the floating candles at Michael's. They were very easy to assemble. I filled them with a few inches of water and once I got to the hall, the staff filled them with to the top for me. I got many compliments. FM me if you would like more info!
