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??
