Just checked my email and got the proposal for our flowers. Roses and hydrangeas 10 tall centerpieces 6 bm/gm, my bouquet, cake table and sweetheart table and our mothers pieces $3000+

My mom used same vendor with orchids and it was $2000 3 years ago (maybe vendor prices increased)

Moh used hydrangeas and orchids with double the amount of flowers 4 years ago and it was >$3000.

I will probably go to more vendors now to check pricing. I was definitely not expecting to spend this much on flowers. My heart fell to my booty when I read that price! Is it the roses making the huge difference? Is anyone else using these flowers?

    The season has a LOT to do with price. We're using only flowers that will be in season for our June wedding and that has seriously helped to cut costs. I also agree with the PP for suggesting mixing your centerpieces. None of mine are exactly the same.

    Have you thought about succulents maybe? Anyone have an idea of their cost? I've thought about those for myself, but no idea what they cost. But they're so pretty and unique!
