Floral Budget

I absolutely loved the park savoy but it was beyond my budget! I am getting married at the mill in spring lake

I’m in VT and spending around $6500 all said and done for flowers and vases. We are getting 8 low centerpieces, 7 high centerpieces, a floral arch (that will be reused at reception), 10 bridesmaids bouquets, bridal bouquet, 4 wrist corsages, 10 groomsmen boutonnières, grooms boutonnière, 2 ring bearer boutonnières, a boutonnière for my dad, 2 baskets of flower petals for the older girls and one very small baby bouquet for the youngest flower girl. We are using hydrangeas, peonies, roses and orchids

10k on flowers? Holy crap thats almost more then my over all wedding budget.
Are you really willing to spend that much on flowers that will literally die right after the wedding? Its just one day and to spend that much money on only one part of the wedding seems insane imo.

Holy crap 10k is more than my entire wedding is costing!

View Quoted Comment Totally agree. My flower budget is a couple hundred bucks. I’m getting them from a farmers market.

Wow! Your flower quote was almost the price of my entire wedding budget! Impressive!

I'm spending around $1,000 on my flowers. Getting quotes from 3 different flower vendors by next weekend. I'm having two different arbors decorated in vines and flowers, my farm tables will have greenery and flowers as runners down the middle instead of centerpieces. A bridal bouquet, multiple corsages and boutonnieres.

I would suggest definitely shopping around and getting quotes, try to stay within budget. Remember, even though flowers are beautiful, they are a one time thing and they will die. Kind of blunt, but it is the truth.

Oh wow! For that much I would expect to see Garden of Versailles quality flowers. I’m only spending $600 for flowers for everything including setup.

Oh my holy wow. 10k?? My bouquets, centerpieces, and church decorations have cost us under $1,000 in total.

View Quoted Comment Omg 🥰 I instantly love you, my budget is 10k and honestly trying to go less expensive for flowers and decor including the dress, my question is that you pay for your own floral? Cause I thought if you rent a venue that is included?

View Quoted Comment That's going to be so nice. The mill has such pretty views! Congratulations!!

View Quoted Comment Some venues might include floral. But every one I looked at you have to hire and pay for your own florist

View Quoted Comment We got a set of 8 wonderful boutonnières at wedding flower plus on Etsy for a good price. It is what we are giving the moms to I think.

View Quoted Comment I’m also in the Midwest in Illinois but 8k for flowers wow... if I can’t find something reasonable I might as well diy and look for amazon etc...

View Quoted Comment The boutonnieres aren't breaking the budget. There are 3 of them. It's the corsages and bride's bouquet that is expensive. It's because I want hydrangeas, succulents, and other flowers. So, I am trying to make cuts to the bm bouquets and maybe do a small baby's breath bouquet or a single white rose.

The flower girl flowers are also a splurge but it's my daughter. I am borrowing the princess Charlotte / Pippa flower girl dress / baby breath flower crown and baby breath heart wreath.

View Quoted Comment ONG DR Who!!! Sorry yes grooms women are carrying a single Rose my girls will have a kissing ball. Our flower girl is all about ribbons.

View Quoted Comment We're having a slightly Dr who themed wedding. The flowers are Dr who themed. The ceremony has Dr who quotes. The cake is starry night with a tardis cake topper. My engagement ring is a tardis blue sapphire with "hello sweetie" engraved on the inside. My garter is TARDIS themed.

The bridal bouquet is succulents, hydrangeas, and roses. It ends up being blue and white.

What's really driving up the cost of floral is having the wedding on Valentine's day.... This is my biggest cost driver.

I can’t wait to see your pictures! 💕 yeah honestly 10k is our entire budget for everything together. 🤣🤣

View Quoted Comment Those are really pretty.

View Quoted Comment This very close to what I want too! Beautiful.

View Quoted Comment Yes, I think you mean Mr. Floral and Events, right? I believe his name is Mike. He’s definitely on my list to call. I follow him on Instagram and I think his work is very beautiful.

Haven’t heard of Whimsey, but will definitely check them out.

Thank you!
