Calling all Florists

Hello, I posted this in the BHB board and it was suggested that I post here too:

I just met with a florist over the weekend (not a vendor on this site; but I will still protect the names of the guilty) and received what I thought was a horrifically (if that's a word) expensive quote.

I wanted callas and hydrangea (or another light blue flower) in a simple satin wrap for my boo-k.

callas for MOH (only BM)

4 rose corsages for MOB, MOG, GMOB and my aunt.

stephanotis for FG basket.

single small calla boot for FH
2 other boots with single rose/one stephanotis for BM and usher.

approximately 15-20 rose centerpieces with votives

tulle for the ceremony (which I understand can get up there in price)

3 rose arrangements for the ceremony.

I was quoted $3500.

It was explained that roses were less expensive than callas, so that part I get... but I still feel that this is a bit much. Am I underestimating??
